If You HAD to Start Over - What would you do Different???

EXCELLENT POST Maestra.

"...but to provide a truly useful information and/or service to my visitors..." I could not agree with you more. Do not deviate from that mindset and there is no reason you can not accomplish whatever you set out to do Online.

This contest has ended. It is too late to enter. Good luck to all who have posted entries.

The difficult job of picking winners has now started. It will not be easy.

I am temporarily closing this thread. It will remain closed until the announcement of the winners next week.

Winning Post: http://affiliate-marketing-forums.5s...=6400#post6400

I've known Billy for a long time and know that he's considered a super affiliate and gets many VIP deals from lots of merchants. He also lives in Vegas. So this 50 bucks won't get a guy like him very far. But consider it a big token of our appreciation for sharing your time and expertise with our members.

(PM me your Paypal Billy so I can pay you!)

Honorable Mentions
I would also like to acknowledge and thank the 3rd and 4th place runner-ups. We sincerely appreciate your contributions too!

Congrats djaco99, Billy and all the other Honorable Mentions. A job well done!

[djaco99]

I am so excited I can hardly stand it!!!!! Thank you so much Linda, for hosting this terrific forum and coming up with this great contest! And thank you Lisa, for offering such a magnificent prize!!! I looked into SBI last year, before I started my first website, and really wanted it bad, but didn't think I could afford it at the time! I studied all the free material that Ken Envoy wrote, which is what really inspired me to try my hand at affiliate marketing (thanks Ken!).

I am so proud that you picked my entry as the winner, and so excited about the SBI prize that I'm literally just bursting at the seams!!!!!! I'm going away for the weekend, and will now spend my time thinking of the absolute best way to use this package. I'm ready to learn some new marketing techniques, and build a "masterpiece" this time around (well, at least to me). I have found a true passion in internet marketing, and although I'm still very "green", and doing this as a "hobby" right now, I know that one day my dream of becoming a full time internet marketing "pro" will become a reality!

You folks are the best Thanks again!!!!!!!!

p.s. Linda, I hope you'll keep this topic up for awhile, because there is soooo much great information to be learned from it.

[Larwee]

Congratulations djaco99. It is always good to see a happy winner.

Because of the abundance of useful information contained in this thread it will remain a sticky, which will keep it up high in the threads here in the General Topics Affiliate Forum.

[Linda Buquet]

"Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!!!!"

You are SO welcome and it warms my heart to know that you appreciate the prize this much. I was really hoping the person that ended up winning would be one that could really use this gift and make it work for themselves.

PLEASE let us know how it goes and give us some progress reports as you get started.

And yes this valuable thread will always remain a sticky. I
ll be sending n00bs or frustrated affiliate markerters to this section so they can learn from the manay lessons shared!

KUDOS and CONGRATS!

[Lisa76]

Djaco99, we look forward to hearing about your SBI! success story in the near future. Linda, this was a great contest (thank you!) Not to mention this thread will teach a lot of newbies what NOT to do when getting started with affiliate marketing. I sure wish I could have read something like this when I first started with affiliate marketing. It would have saved me a lot of time and money.
