First, thank you for purchasing my product. The information I am

what has worked for me.
I will show you how to duplicate the success I have created. You're
going to learn how to make thousands of dollars each month, by
giving away FREE gifts. These gifts can be whatever you choose to
give away, DVDs, Video Games, CDs, cash, gift cards, magazine

You could also hire a designer to complete the html portion of your
website. If you choose to go that route, I recommend elance.com.
Registration is free, and once you are registered, just place your
project online. Within minutes you should have bids on your project.
As long as you select a provider who has been a member for at least 6
months, has a high feedback rating, and speaks & writes English well,
you should have no problem at all.
Graphics
I recommend dreamstime.com for stock photos, etc... They have a
GREAT selection, basically whatever you are looking for, they will have
it!
Site Design
Index page
First page visitors are directed to when typing your domain name into
their browser address bar. This should include an overview of your
website and what you're offering. Below you'll see an example of a
good index page.
FAQ
A page for all commonly asked/anticipated questions.
Privacy Policy
Very important to have in place. As an owner of this eBook, you may
view the WinAnyGift.com privacy policy/terms of use to get an idea of
what is needed. However, please do not copy it word for word.
Contact
A contact page listing company contact information such as your email
addresse.
You will also design the following pages in html, and l a ter t here will be
code added by your programmer in order for your site to function
properly.
Offer Pages:
Above is a sample offer page.
You'll see the offer name (efax) and description. Below that is a sign
up form for the visitor to complete.
Once the visitor completes the signup form and clicks submit, they will
be taken to the final page. You'll also see a “Live Help” button near the
bottom. This is a program that allows me to interact with visitors
through an “instant message” type program.
I do recommend using this program, it's available at SiteChatter.com.
You'll want to create a new page like the one above for every offer on
your site. So if you have 5 offers on your site, you would make 5
pages similar to the one above.
Above is the page visitors are taken to after clicking submit on the
previous page. This is the visitors final step. They simply click the logo
and follow the instructions to receive their gift. You'll see that I have
the offer logo, description, and requirement listed on this final page.
You'll want to add everything you see to the two pages above,
EXCEPT the offer code itself, as that will be added after you've
After being approved for the affiliate networks you'll want to login to
each network and become familiar with the publisher area, and the
offers available.

Next, add a description to the offer, and you can also list the
requirement needed by the visitor to receive credit (such as taking the
free trial, making a purchase, etc..).
Navigate the left windows to locate your website files on your local
computer. Then drag and drop them into the appropriate folder on the
right side to upload them to your server. HTML and PHP files will go
into the “htdocs” folder, while all of your graphics will go into the
“images” folder.
Review for Chapter 5:
1. I recommend a Virtual Dedicated solution hosting plan.
2. If you're currently with a web host, check for PHP and MySQL
support.
3. I do not recommend using a free hosting service.
4. Use an FTP program such as FileZilla to upload your website.
Chapter 6 – Programming
After selecting a webhost for your site, the next step is to program
your website. Programming allows the website to fuction properly.
These functions include:
Signup Functions:
-------------------
o Functionality to take data input into a form and insert it into the
user promo database, including data validation (duplicates allowed)
o Functionality to redirect user after signup to account home or
regpath or where ever
Admin Functions:
-------------------
o Functions to gather and display all transactions and grouped stats
for referral sources.
o Functions to import various data files from other networks.
Misc Functions:
------------------
o Function to check whether a user has completed enough promo
offers
to trigger a payout
o Functions to send email to admins that indicate which users should
now be sent their gift for completing the required offers.
o Functions for tracking various landing pages and referral sources.

programmers I use, you can send your project request over to me via

It is definitely not necessary to know all the details of programming
and it's okay if you're not sure how the programming works. Just let
your programmer know what you are wanting done, and any good
programmer should be able to take care of you.
You can use a programmer from rentacoder.com or elance.com if you
like. These programmers provide quality work and are excellent at
designing exactly what you want for your websites.
You may also direct your programmer to a site like GiftMonkey.com for
tips, ideas, etc... Just take care not to carbon copy anything. You could
say to your programmer, “Take a look at GiftMonkey, I want my site to
function in a similar fashion.” Also let your programmer know that you
will be tracking member accounts using a SID, or UID.
These are alphanumeric codes that you append to your affiliate links to
track offers completed.
Another option would be to use a script (such as FSRevolution), and
just have the script installed. This is a lot easier to do for most
everyone. The only downside is that it cannot be customized to your
liking as well as a custom coded site.
The screen shot above is the first screen you see after logging into the
admin area. From here you can also view the total users, the date, and
today's transactions.
The screen shot above shows where to upload each CSV file. When the
files are uploaded, member accounts are automatically credited for
offers completed. Just ignore the boxes labeled adteractive, etc..those
are for older affiliate networks. The boxes you will need created are
cactus media promo and azoogle promo and/or any other networks
you are using.
The screen shot above shows the sign up form for members.
All of the screen shots above are for informational purposes only, and
are meant to be used as a guide by your programmer. These are
intended to give you and your programmer information on what is
needed.

Now let's view the modified affiliate links with the SID or UID in place.
Modifications are in red.

Chapter 8 – Advertising
I always use paid advertising to bring traffic to my website. I've never
tried to optimize my site for the search engines, or anything other than
paid advertising. This does not mean other forms of advertising are not
acceptable, I just have never personally tried them.
I've read about others having great results with free advertising, but it
is a very slow process. For that reason I've decided to go the paid
advertising route. When using paid advertising I strongly recommend
not spending more than 20% of your available advertising funds on
one type of advertising until you have become familiar with it and
know your expected results.
When advertising the MOST IMPORTANT thing to remember is
TRACKING! Always track all of your advertisements. I track the new
members generated and revenue generated for each and every ad I
place. No exceptions!
A programmer can setup a tracking system for you that will track
everything you wish. Just let them know what you want done, and
they should be able to do it. I recommend using the same programmer
that developed your site if at all possible, as they will be familiar with
your site.
