Answers
1. I've just joined. What should I do first?
Read (carefully) the Home page and the Getting Started page under General Guidance Don't miss the Affiliate Panel Tutorial Video link at the bottom of the Home page.
2. I'm new to the Internet. How do I make money with Easy-Earn?
By referring customers to the Easy-Earn opportunity and/or to our products (known as ValuePaks). 'Referring', means simply telling them where to go to read about them. You earn a commission for every ValuePak bought by someone who followed one of your links. Those buyers then become your affiliates and you get further commissions from their sales. Then the people who bought from them become your sub-affiliates and you earn commissions on their sales too.
3. How do I promote this opportunity and/or the ValuePaks?
Read the Getting Started section under General Guidance after you log-in. Generally, the first thing you should do is choose some promo material, such as one or two ad banners and text links (from Banners & Links under Promotion Tools), and position their code onto your own webpages. When a visitor clicks on such an ad, he/she will be sent to the sales page for the particular product that the ad was promoting. If they eventually buy a ValuePak, you will automatically get rewarded with a commission for the sale. Promoting the Easy-Earn opportunity itself also leads people to investing in one or more ValuePaks so the end result for you is the same.
4. Can I promote Easy-Earn any way I like?
Of course! So long as it's legitimate and provided you don't send unsolicited personal messages (also known as 'spam'), which is forbidden.
5. How exactly do you define 'spam'?
Spam is simply unasked-for messages. Any emails about Easy-Earn sent to people who don't know you, or who have never given you permission to send them messages, is deemed to be spam. Also promotional messages in forums, chatrooms etc, unless specifically allowed. Anyone found promoting Easy-Earn or ValuePaks by spamming will immediately be barred from further participation in this opportunity with no right of refund.
6. What is the difference between Bronze, Silver and Gold ValuePaks?
The price! Bronze ValuePaks are $7.00, Silver are $14.00 and Gold $21.00.
7. Can I promote one or more ValuePaks instead of just Easy-Earn?
Of course! The quickest way is to use our Banners & Links (under Promotion Tools) to find an ad/announcement for the ValuePak you want to promote or the Easy-Earn opportunity itself. Alternatively, you can create your own promotional material.
8. Can I just buy a ValuePak for myself without joining the affiliate program?
Yes, of course, and every ValuePak is an absolutely unbeatable bargain at only $7, $14 or $21. Becoming an affiliate is not compulsary but why not promote it and make some money too? There is so much more to Easy-Earn than just the software and ebook packages.
9. What is my 'affiliate ID' and what is it for?
Your affiliate ID (otherwise known as your Referral ID) is the unique 'nickname' that you supply on joining the Easy-Earn affiliate program and is used to identify you as the person who should be paid if a sale results from any visits initiated by you. Yours is {$refid}.
10. What is my 'affiliate link' and what is it for?
Your general affiliate link is the code that can be attached to any URL you want to send people to, such as a ValuePak sales page or the main Easy-Earn sales page, to identify you as the person who should be paid if a sale results. It is made up of your affiliate ID preceded by the code '?a_aid=' (you can see yours at the top of most pages here, including this one). This, together with extra code for click tracking etc, is automatically attached to any sales material of ours that you download from this site. You can also manually attach it to your own promotional creations. (See also DirectLinks Explained under General Guidance.)
11. What is my 'referral link' and what is it for?
Your referral link refers to the address of the main Easy-Earn sales page with your affiliate link already attached. That is the URL you should use in any material you create (such as a review, for example) about the Easy-Earn opportunity in general. Everyone who visits that page, or indeed any page with your affiliate link attached to the URL, gets a cookie with your affiliate ID embedded in it. That way, all sales can be tracked and you will get duly credited for them.
12. What's the difference between Bronze, Silver and Gold affiliates?
The higher the category, the higher the commissions on some ValuePaks (see Affiliate Commissions in Products & Commissions under General Guidance). Affiliates are graded according to the highest value of ValuePak they own.
13. How do I know I will be paid for my sales?
The Easy-Earn affiliate program is powered by Post Affiliate Pro, one of the leading affiliate tracking software programs. It uses a combination of cookies and IP address information to track referrals for the best possible reliability. Whenever someone visits the Easy-Earn sales page by clicking on your affiliate link, Post Affiliate Pro registers the referral and places a cookie on his or her computer. If he/she buys a ValuePak, the system checks for the cookie (if it's not found, it checks for the IP address of the referral) and credits your account with the commission. This process is completely automatic so all your referrals will be properly tracked. If they are not, there is usually a misconfiguration in your affiliate ID.
14. How do you pay out what I've earned and when?
All payments are made through AlertPay or PayPal in the first half of each month for the previous month's earnings. Funds are automatically issued to all affiliates who have reached the minimum payout setting ($10.00 U.S.) in the minimum payout field in the Profile section.
15. How do I use the 'banners' under Banners & Links?
You need a website to 'house' the code for these. Get the actual code by clicking Get banner code underneath each promo item in the Banners & Links section. If you want the ad to refer to a particular page of your own, use the Dynamic link button instead. The main advantage of using the banners and other promotional material in Banners & Links is that your affiliate link is already embedded in them, as well as more code to identify the 'banner' itself. As a result, they are able to track impressions (views), as well as clicks and sales.
16. My Banners & Links section is empty. Where are they?
You probably have the filter Banner type set to 'none'. Click All or the particular category of promo you are interested in to see them.
17. Can I send emails to members of my downline?
You are entitled to communicate with all three levels of your downline as often as you wish and about whatever you wish because they elected to join your mailing list when they enrolled. Our advice though, is not to make it too frequent. A maximum of once a week is advisable. You need to remember that they are entitled to resign from your list if they want to and you must honor this entitlement. So don't antagonize your list members.
18. What is the Campaigns section for?
Campaigns are where pre-coded promotional material (banners etc) are made available for individual (differently priced) ValuePaks; hence there is a bronze, silver and gold one. It is also where you will find the commission structure for your own affiliate category clarified on a 'per campaign' basis.
19. What's the difference between Bronze, Silver and Gold Campaigns?
The bronze campaign ($7 ValuePaks) is the default so it also stores the general Easy-Earn promo stuff as well as ads etc specifically created for bronze ValuePaks. The silver campaign is for $14 ValuePaks and associated items, whereas the gold houses the $21 ValuePak promos.
20. How do I use the Dynamic Link facility?
If you want a banner to point to a page of your own instead of its default sales page, or perhaps you have an idea for a splash page, or any other kind of promotional material you have created yourself, Dynamic Link enables you to create a link for it that already has your affiliate link embedded. This is normally a ValuePak sales page or the Easy-Earn sales page, but it can be anywhere else you want (such as a video you have created yourself), and includes the necessary click tracking and sale registration codes.
21. Do you have a training program for affiliates?
Yes, just look in the Marketing Help section. You will find lots of tips and various suggestions and techniques to get you going. Also, you should subscribe to our newsletter Free Ad Tips. To do so, follow your own affiliate link and scroll down to the signup form. If you are really serious about earning a decent income as an affiliate, we also recommend you get a copy of the 'bible' for affiliate success, The Super Affiliate Handbook.
