If you are experiencing too much friction in your affiliate marketing efforts, Zero Friction Marketing gives you the secret, magic lubrication to remove all the friction between you and the untold affiliate riches. It is a CPA course. Yesterday, I talked about another CPA program called Affiliate Jump. This CPA thingy is heating up and all gurus are eager to teach you how to make millions CPA marketing.

As I am always a sucker for this kind of things, I immediately clicked on the link in my email to land on the Zero Friction Market site. And there it was - a video. Now these internet marketing scripts are becoming very predictable. I was expecting a video and there it was. Besides the video, there was list, like in a spreadsheet column, that showed all the money, totaling $107,129.39 that somebody – mostly probably the creator of the program – has made using Zero Friction Marketing.

Wait, let me check who is the creator. No, it does not say anything at least on the first paragraph of the long sales letter. The income figures are very recent. I think the creator of the program got tired of making so much money that wanted everybody to learn his secret for a hefty $1,000 fee. He thought, “why not? I have this system and I am going to ask for $1,000 to reveal my super secrets.”

I am sorry, the video (not the one I mentioned above) is a testimonial from somebody who is absolutely delighted about the secret CPA program and he has made thousands. The are few other testimonial videos. A gal who made $1,300 in her first week. The last testimonial is encouraging people who are making small amounts of money from CPA marketing, to enroll in the course to increase their earnings.

So, it does not matter. The creator has figured it out and would help newbies and people who are already doing CPA marketing for mere $1,000. Don’t worry you are laid off from your job. Here is passport to show the finger to your former boss.

The best part of the program is you don’t need anything.

No website
No product
No Cusotmer list
No Adwords
No traffic budget

You may be a bum, but you can still make money as long as you can afford the price for the course. As I scroll down the long sales page, I finally located a video where somebody logs into an affiliate network to show the money he has made in a couple of months. It is more than half a million dollars. But he does not tell how much money he has spent on advertising.

So here you have it all. Zero Friction Marketing to remove all the friction you have in your life. I love the names these marketers come up with.

This is the most ridiculous blog post I read this week. This guy at AltSearchEngine is looking for an entire search engine built for him for $10. To be fair, he will give you $100,000 if he can sell it for a cool million.

He has put other restrictions also. For example you can only write the engine in C++, a computer programming language. You cannot write it in any other programming language. What he is afraid of if it is written in another language? I don’t know. Ask him.

Of course, he does not mention how much he will pay you if he sells it for half a million dollars. You are out of luck. You have to be content with $10.

He has conjured up a nice business model – pay people ridiculously low wage with a promise to pay in the future if he can make a fortune. If have to give credit to him for coming up with such a brilliant idea. May be somebody in Afghanistan will take up his offer.

While I am at the search engine, I have to mention another ridiculous search engine I happened to discover this week. It is called SearchWinds. This guy pulls out 10 results for each query from Microsoft’s newly launched Bing (promoted as a decision engine) and asks searchers to vote on the results.

As if the the searcher does not have any better thing do. Not only she has to be content with the limited search results brought from a third party search engine, she also has to waste her time voting on the results.

If you are a desperate person living in Afghanistan with C++ skills, take up the $10 project. If you don’t have any better thing to do, go vote on search results.

Are you spending too much time staring blankly at numbers and hoping one site to another site to collect statistics about your business? Worry no more. Some guy named Mike Filsaime is filling inboxes with information about a brand new software called StatsJunky, probably getting an affiliate commission also.

If you are a statsjunky, this is exactly what you have been waiting for. It is your nirvana. Don’t worry about how much money you are making, get this baby for free for a 7 day trial and it will change forever how you do your affiliate marketing.

The site has a product comparison chart. Only two products are compared. StatsJunky and another product called “Without StatsJunky”. I have not yet located this product called “Without StatsJunky”. Several Google searches failed to find this alternative product.

The good news is that this ethereal product “without statsjunky” does not have any feature compared to statsjunky which has every thing you can think of.

The email sender knows that we waste enormous amount of time surfing through our accounts every hour to see how may pennies we made, especially if your income comes from AdSense and your spend your waking hours in digitalpoint forum.

It is totally secure with 128 bit encryption so that nobody can see your stats unlike the other product called “Without StatsJunky”. “Without StatsJunky” is naked and everybody can see it in all its beauty.

This is a good product. They provide excellent support and lots of training videos and regular live webinars. You will be able to up and running quickly with this product.

If you are serious about your PPC marketing, this appear to be a good product to track your income-expense and profits in real time. It is pricey but if you are making good money you should be able to afford it and possibly increase your profits using the system to make more money.
