So how many times have you seen someone offer you a free trial
of something or other, but to get started you need to provide a
credit card number, or use your Paypal account to sign up.
A lot of services or products even ask that you pay ONLY $1 to
start any sort of trial and act as if you are getting an incredible
value.
But what they are really doing is getting your credit card number
or PayPal account locked into their auto re-billing feature and
hiding behind their real motive simply by telling you that it is
for your convenience.
It is a well known fact that many people who offer products or
services are making more money due simply to people forgetting to
cancel these auto re-bills. You know how sometimes, new marketers
got carried away subscribing to all those $1 trials and forgot to
cancel those that didn't worked for them - which was almost all
the programs! I know, I was there too ;-)
Now I'm not in any way speaking of all marketers. Many do in fact
provide great value and are trying to make things easier, but it
is also an overly abused marketing tactic to make the product or
service owner a lot of extra "accidental" recurring income.
You see, a lot of unethical marketers know that most of the time
you will forget about the trial and a few months later you will
finally notice that you have been charged XX dollars every month.
Guess who makes a pile of money that way. That's not cool man...
So it is something to watch out for when signing up to any free
trials of anything.
On a total flip side, here's an example of a guy who has an insanely
good free trial offer, but you don't have to give your credit card
or Paypal account up front. It's just a free trial, because he
believe it works and is not hiding behind anything!
Check it out HERE
It's a no obligations 90 Day Free Trial of what's called the Smart
Subscriber marketing system. His name is Ian and he's been an online
marketer for over a decade and claims he will make you money through
affiliate commissions just to prove his service is worth paying for!
With no credit cards or Paypal account stuff upfront, I'd say that's
a pretty rock solid and safe free trial.

Now, 90 days is enough to make something good works - if we can
just get our fat ass move away from the couch couple of hours
a day... :-)
If we still make zero or not even enough to buy a Big Mac and a Latte a day, hey...
its not worth to stay on and I say just dump it.
And don't even say good bye to Ian ;-)

Newsletters and Affiliate Marketing
Newsletters are a very good way of driving traffic to your affiliate website, advertising your affiliate products and increasing your sales. Usually affiliates build their mailing list by grabbing the emails of their site visitors. Weekly or monthly newsletters are sent to all the members of this mailing list.
If you search on the internet, you will find thousands of email newsletters. But you will find that most of them are not earning any reasonable money. On the other hand, the secret of most of the successful affiliates is their newsletters.
It means that if you can create an effective newsletter, it can really boost your affiliate business. Here I am giving you some quick tips to create and run your newsletter successfully
1. Should be specific to your niche
If you want your newsletter to have good results and you are looking to get a decent profit from it, then your newsletter articles should be specific to your niche. If your niche is scuba divers, avoid publishing articles on web marketing. Simply, give the information to the users for which they are looking.
2. Write articles yourself
Your mission in this field must be to prove your own reputation and expertise. If you just copy and paste the work of others at your site, then it means that you are promoting others instead of yourself. Anyone that will come to your site will not see your work. So if he appreciates the articles at your site, then he is actually appreciating the person who is the creator of the articles, not you. So you must be creative and try to put your original articles there. If you are willing to put someone else's article there on the site, then you must give your own introduction in the beginning of the article and also give the reason why you are adding the article.
What if you can't write?
In this case you can get lots of people who will be ready to provide their services and write the articles for you. So in this way they will do the writing work, but you will be the one who will get all the credit of their work.

3. Publish NO MORE than weekly
You should publish your newsletter once every two weeks at least. The monthly newsletters are not very effective. The best practice is to publish a weekly newsletter. But don’t publish more than once a week, because people want to listen to you but not so often.
4. Write Short Articles
An ideal length for articles is 150-750 words. If you have more lengthy articles, you can split those articles into two or more. Short articles are easy to read and are more effective.
5. Focus on one product/offer per month
Every month you should select one affiliate product that you want to promote during that particular month. Focus on topics related to that particular product. This way your users will also focus on one product at a time and they may turn into buyers.
6. Offer Incentives
You can set up a downloadable incentive for your visitors when they return on a predetermined day to ensure more traffic and get possible sales
Following these six steps can create a growing affiliate income from your newsletter. Just try to be focused, to the point and send your newsletters at least two times in a month.
