How Can I Promote DealDotCom?

1. Implement Our RSS Feed on your site or blog

Simply add your affiliate ID to the end of the “Product Specific” RSS Feed URL like so….

http://www.dealdotcom.com/rss/Enter-ID-Here

…so if your affiliate ID was 1000, then the link would look like…

http://www.dealdotcom.com/rss/1000

…and like magic, your affiliate link is inserted into the rss feed.

2. Install a WordPress Plugin on your blog.

A couple of our awesome members have developed two very powerful plugins to use for promoting DealDotCom

i. http://dealdotcomrss.nichemoneysites.com/

They are both DealDotCom approved plugins and each do it a little different. Pick the one you like more :)

Other Ways…

There are many more ways you can promote DealDotCom and make money. Some other examples are…

i. Write articles and submit them to directories with your link in the resource box

ii. Set up a PPC campaign

iii. Place classified ads

iv. Pay someone through https://www.reviewme.com/ or http://payperpost.com/ to write about DealDotCom and use your affiliate link in their post (yes they will do that).

Important: Last But NOT Least - Affiliate Tracking

DealDotCom understands the power of analytics and so should you. We have recently enabled you with the power of campaign tracking from both the direct link way to now also including the rss feed.

Creating a campaign is incredibly easy and this is all you have to do.

1. Think of a campaign name. So for example, say I paid a high profile blogger to write a post about DealDotCom on their blog and lets say that bloggers name is George. Well you simply add the name “george” to the end of your link like so..

http://www.dealdotcom.com/invite/1000/george
(replace the 1000 with your affiliate id)
or

http://www.dealdotcom.com/rss/1000/george
(replace the 1000 with your affiliate id)

…and you are all set. The system will automagically add the campaign in your account area and start tracking every single sign up and purchase made from that link. Once you have started to use the campaign tracking you will be able to see it in your account area.

If you click the “show me my campaigns” you will see how many sign ups and how many orders in total for the individual campaigns.

Well that is about it. We will link directly to this post from the “Your Account” page and will update this page as we change and update things.

    I started working on my own version of “DealDotCom Widget” when I first saw BlueFur’s plugin.

    My objective was to make my “DealDotCom Widget” a lot easier to install using theme’s Widget as well as make it a viral tool so that everyone can benefit from it.

    Now, not only can you display latest deal in your blog, you can also recruit many affiliates under you and make them work hard so that you can earn 2nd tier commission on autopilot.

    You can download the plugin from here:
    http://www.maxblogpress.com/plugins/mdw/

    Here are some features of “MaxBlogPress DealDotCom Widget”:

    * Easy to install using widget feature

    * Smart enough to resize the image according to your sidebar width

    * You can brand the plugin so that every link pointing to DealDotCom will be YOUR OWN DealDotCom link. You can distribute the plugin to attract many affiliates sign up under you.

    * We have a followup system in place so that whoever download the plugin from you will be motivated to join DealDotCom under you as well as promote it hard earning you 2nd tier commissions.

    * Viral link at the bottom of the widget will passively promote the plugin which will be branded with your affiliate links.

    Download it from here:

    Hi, I am from Canada, So I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving. Now I agree with everything that I read above but, what if you do not have a blog, a website, banners or any of the other things I would need to get funds and people coming my way. As you guess, yes I am a newbie and do not know how to do a lot of things you are talking about. Should I leave here and not come back, borrow money so I can join or keep reading and hope for the best.
    Thanks for your e-mails and all the information I have been trying to learn. Have a great weekend andhopefully we could get to know each other down the road. Or up the road depending on where you live.
    Take care

    Thanks for the advice. Do you archive the Deals of The Day for future promotions or are they only available on the day they are selected? If it is the latter, how will I know of the Deal of The Day once they are selected?

    Thanks

  12. trujat Says:

    I had installed DealDotCom’s banner (120×600) at my DigitalProductsCenter.com which is ranked by Google among the top 20 for the key phrases of “digital products”, “cheap software” and “cheap ebooks”. With great products from DealDotCom, I’m confident that my online revenue will be turbocharged.

  18. warner444 Says:

  24. newbizstart Says:

    Every time I have come to Deal Dot Com I find something I want to buy but can NEVER figure out how to purchase your products. This is the fourth time I could not figure it out. Either make it easier to figure out how to purchase, especially the items that are old and not the daily selection or shut this site down, honest. it just frustrates your public. ALL of them are hard. This is a great example of what I would NEVER TEACH AN INTERNET MARKETER TO DO. I teach on landing pages design and you guys suck at it, big time. Sorry, Tom

    Great… will give it a try

  26. Fittabyfar Says:

    Hi there.

    I need help. I need a simple piece of code that I can add to the multitude of sites that I own/run, so that I can start to advertise this. I don’t run any blogs - I just need some code (javascript or HTML) that I can add to my pages.

    Any ideas?

    Cheers.

  27. theprofitclub Says:

    nexgen,

    I really like your plugins. Very userfriendly. I especially like the different no. post on different page plugin. Plus the Ping plugin is just super!

  28. grumpyoldchef Says:

    This all looks real good.

    I just wish I knew what RSS, plugins, sidebars, widgets, pings etc were.

    And if they actually do anything.

    If they are to do with blogs, I needn’t bother. I am not egotistical enough to think anyone would want to read anything I have to say on any subject.

    I’m sure the only person that sees a blog is the person that writes it.
