I think I can manage 3 individual websites usesing A2 hosting.Do you think it would be a good idea? What would be the pros and cons.
Hey William, I have no doubts that you can manage three websites at once. However, I don’t think that is a good idea, at least until your first website takes off and starts ranking in Google, getting traffic and earning commissions.
The pros would be more revenue opportunities, greater chances of success, and a chance to cover multiple niches at once. On the other hand, the major con is the difficulty associated with building (not managing) three websites at once. This could lead to exhaustion and eventually, failure.
I would recommend spending at least 6-12 months in building one website and then scalling with more. I hope this helps.
Thanks for the info I will start just one, then scale from there after about 8 months.Cheers!
That’s probably the best idea!
Thanks, Ivan! You’re correct I missed to purchase the domain I was told by the tech support. Will purchase it continue what I have started with your training.
Hey Hannah, mistakes happen. Don’t worry. Grab a domain name and keep moving forward with the training. And if you will have any questions, just let me know. Best of luck! 🙂
Hi Ivan,
Followed you all along on how to purchase and set up my domain with A2 Hosting. After everything is done, I’m stuck with the Admin Log-in because my page won’t load. I have this error that says, “This site can’t be reached.” I contacted Support but they told me, I haven’t purchased my domain yet that’s why it’s not registered. I showed them the receipt of my order but they said it was only for the start-up, not the domain itself. But on your video, you only paid once for that bundle. I’m confused. Did you pay an extra charge or anything for your domain?
Thank you in advance for your reply.
Hey Hannah, congratulations on setting up your hosting. But from what I understand, you didn’t properly set up the domain and that is why your site is not showing up. In my video, I purchased both domain and hosting at once. Check your receipts one more time and ask the A2 Hosting support for further instructions. My assistance in this area is limited because I don’t work at or own A2 Hosting.
Hi Ivan
I am quite disappointed with the way the way the people at income 365 is operating.
I was prepared to start with the 14 days just to test the system and to see if its worth my time and effort.
I even went as far as to record on my phone the whole presentation and was very excited about this cos it sounds like this is the people that is going to help me make this a success.
then comes the big shock you have to pay more money if you want their full assistance .Needless to say i couldn’t join their elite club.
That what has bring me here to find out if there is a way that i can still make this work.
Ivan my biggest problem is where to get the original traffic without paying too much if free even better before you get their emails.
Can you perhaps assist me with that it will be highly appreciated.
I’m looking forward to hear from you
Hey Chris, sorry to hear about your experience with the Income 365 program.
As for getting free traffic, my number one recommendation is SEO. There are specific techniques that I teach in my course that you can leverage to generate 100s and even 1000s free targeted visitors to your website. If you want to learn more, I recommend watching my training and asking questions if you don’t understand anything.
Ivan, I have a website with Amazon and 10 + vendors I can promote. These stores are on several different platforms.
Would it be possible to use my website to post reviews on Google or should I get another website?
I have 5 niches, Hunting and Fishing, Pet Supplies And Wellness, Farm And Ranch, Home And Garden and Health And Wellness. My website ( mawandpawstore.com ) your training is wonderful and I would appreciate you insights
Regards Bryson French
Hey Bryson, thanks for joining my training. You can use your website to post reviews if you want.
In my opinion, you are covering a lot of niches at once with your current site and that could potentially be an issue. You should focus on one specific niche from your list as per my recommendations in Lesson 2 for the best results in Google. That’s because Google likes specialist sites over general sites that cover multiple topics.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions.
Ivan
Should I start with Amazon only, or pick one of my many stores. Or should I get another website for just for Amazon.
I’m having trouble building traffic with Facebook and Instagram and dealing with Meta !! Ivan I’m 78 years old and retired just trying to get something going. I like and appreciate your insight. I live in Texas and you can imagine the turmoil online here.I had my website built by Success Pros and hard to get any understanding from them. Your training has helped me understand more about Amazon they didn’t do.
Thanks A Million !!
Bryson French
Hey Bryson, if that is the case, then I would recommend starting from scratch by following the instructions from my training. Pick one niche from Amazon as per instructions from Lesson 2. Then, follow the rest of the lessons in the course to learn how to build your own Amazon affiliate website and generate free traffic from Google by leveraging product reviews. The instructions are simple and easy to implement so you shouldn’t experience any troubles. Even if you do get some questions, feel free to contact me and I’ll give you a hand!
Will do Ivan, I’ll keep you informed !!
Thank You Very Much !!
Bryson French
You’re welcome, Bryson. I’m looking forward to working with you!
Hello Ivan,
For some reason, I’m unable to load new posts on my website. I’m just getting a blank page.
Please help, and thanks for your prompt help always.
– Wanjiru.
Hey Wanjiru, click on the “Clear Cache” link in your WordPress dashboard. You’ll see it in the top bar. Refresh your browser and try again.
Hey Ivan,
I’ve cleared cache and refreshed the browser multiple times. Still nothing.
– Wanjiru.
Hey Wanjiru, deactivate the A2 Optimized plugin, refresh your browser and try again, please. If this doesn’t work, I suggest that you contact A2 Hosting support. They can help you with this.
Thank you Ivan.
Will do this
No problem! Did it work?
Hello Ivan.
I am now able to load new posts.
But should I keep A2 Optimized plugin deactivated? Isn’t it beneficial to activate the plugin?
Thank you.
– Wanjiru.
Hey Wanjiru, glad to hear that. You can activate the plugin back on. It helps to speed up your website. But unfortunatelly, it will create these issues from time to time so whenever you see that your page is not loading, simply deactivate and reactivate the plugin.
Hi Ivan,
Now after activating the A2 Optimized plugin, I’m getting this message:
A2 Optimized requires the advanced-cache.php drop-in. Please disable and then re-enable the “Page Caching” setting in A2 Optimized to automatically copy this file or manually copy it from the wp-content/plugins/a2-optimized-wp directory to the wp-content directory.
I have no idea how to proceed.
Thank you Ivan for your help always.
– Wanjiru
Hey Wanjiru, I didn’t notice this message on my sites so I don’t have any experience that I could share with you. The safest bet is to send this over to A2 Hosting support team and ask for their help.
Hullo how are you l would like to inquire that incase l have created a personal website with and domain as wel how will l withdraw payments made by amazon payment/ withdraw methods by amazon after a sale is made
Hey Mawanda, I don’t understand your question about creating a website with a domain. Could you be more specific, please?
Regarding your question about Amazon payment/withdrawal methods. If you want to withdraw payments made through Amazon affiliate, you’ll need to set up your payment method on your Amazon Associates account. Amazon offers various withdrawal methods, including direct deposit to your bank account, Amazon.com gift cards, and checks. You can choose the method that suits you best. I recommend direct deposit as it is most convinient.
Thank you Ivan
Hey Mel, you’re welcome. You can start with Amazon affiliate marketing through my course here. Start by watching Lesson 1 and feel free to reach out if you have more questions.
Hi Ivan,
your videos do not play on my laptop – could it be they are on vimeo?
I’m in Indonesia & and vimeo is blocked here.
Thank you!
Otto
Hey Otto, sorry to hear that. Yes, my videos are on Vimeo. Perhaps you can use VPN to mask your IP address and view my training?
Hello
I live in England. How about can I go about doing this as it is amazon USA
Hey Mel, it’s simple. You just have to join the Amazon USA affiliate program through Amazon.com’s pages and start promoting products from Amazon.com. You can also join Amazon UK and connect it to your Associates’ account and earn from both affiliate programs. There is a feature called One Link that helps to do so. Read more about One Link here.
Hey, Ivan: Just wanted to say…THANK YOU! That’s all…Just thanks for the training. My blog is up and “running”. Thanks, again.
Reginald
Hey Reginald, you’re welcome and congratulations on building your website! Keep on taking action and feel free to contact me if you need help.
Hello,
I am so happy and grateful that I am part of this wonderful community. Has anyone in this group managed to open and watch Lesson 14? I am experiencing problems with opening the link Ivan forwarded. Thanks
Hey Norah, welcome to the program! People had issues with the lesson 14 before. But the issues have been resolved now. I just checked it once again to make sure that everything is fine. You can click on the Training tab and open Lesson 14 from there. Let me know how it goes!
Hi Ivan,
It’s Wanjiru again.
I find SEO, Google Console Search and related matters extremely complex.
I received a message from Google that some of my pages could not be indexed. Is it anything to worry about or should I just continue posting my reviews?
Thanks,
Wanjiru
Hey Wanjiru, don’t worry about those pages. That is probably related to your Privacy Policy and Affiliate Disclaimer. All other pages should have no problems with indexing. You can check which page or pages are in question by clicking the link in Google’s email.
Hello Ivan,
Thank for all your help.
Some items are marked “Amazon’s choice” and others “sponsored”. Is it okay to review such products?
Regards,
Wanjiru.
Hey Wanjiru, you’re welcome. You can review and promote both. Both type of items are listed on Amazon and availabe to customers.
Hi Ivan, me again, Carmie. I am confuse about product review- do I need to buy the product to review and write about it? If I am reviewing a product from doing research and actually had hands on experience on that particular product, is it legit to post a review without actually buying the product? Thanks
Hey Carmie, while personal experience is valuable, it’s not always necessary to buy a product in order to review it. If you conduct thorough research and gather information from credible sources (instructions are in Lessons 8, 9 and 10), you can still provide valuable insights and opinions. However, you disclose that your review is based on research rather than personal experience.
Thanks Ivan for responding so soon and as always I get more info from you. Thank you again
Hey Carmie, you’re welcome. Glad to help!
Hey, Ivan: Great tutorial, as always. I’m just curious about some. In your resource block, below the lesson 12, “you” scratched out Canva as a free resource. May I ask why? I kind of started to depend on them. Please forgive if this question has already been asked and answered.
Thanks, in advance.
Reginald
Hey Reginald, you can still click on the link and use the Canva. I don’t know why the link has a striketrhrough. I didn’t do that lok. The good nes is that that’s the only one. Anyway, you can use Canva, no worries.
Could I use click funnels and click magic to increase the flow of traffic to my web site?
Hey William, technically, those two are just tools that help to improve traffic conversion from a visitor to a customer. They don’t have any features that help you to generate traffic. Besides, they don’t get along with the Amazon affiliate marketing that I’m teaching here, so it would be a waste of money.
There are only two ways to increase traffic to your site: organic and paid. What I teach with my course is how to get free organic traffic by targeting product review keywords and ranking for those keywords in Google. This is the best way to get free organic traffic to your site. I advise you to visit lessons 8, 9, 10 and 11 and study them and then implement the advice.
For the 90 days product review do I write the same “story” for the one product that I selected,or do I “tweak” that products “story” 90 differrent ways?
Hey William, the idea behind the 90-day super affiliate challenge is to inspire you to write 90 different product reviews. The goal is to use the information from the course to find 90 products in your niche and write a review for each product. If you can do this, you can expect great results in months after that. And of course, the idea is to keep on publishing reviews even after the 90-day challenge is over.
I Ivan, one more question, are there any hidden fee forward to run this business, thanks again
Hey Carmie, there is another expense in Lesson 7, keyword research tool but that’s optional. You can still do well without it. If you decide to take the tool it is going to be $49 a month for the Basic plan.
Hi Ivan, I finishing up my lesson#3 which is A2 Hosting abd building my website. Now, I know that I have to pay for fees and renew 17.99/year. Question in the difference in prices, yours was 88.00 mine in 190.00 for the A2 Hosting and domain fee with specification of 17.99/year renewal. Is this a
the price for 2023 members that are signing up. Thanks, Ivan
Hey Carmie, sorry for the inconvenience. The price is right when you go to A2 Hosting page and on the images below the video. I made a mistake a recorded the training during Cyber Monday deal so that is why you are seeing the difference in prices. I hope this is not an issue 🙂
Thanks for clarification. So, I go ahead to do the Cyber Monday, will this be the price I get? Or, is this just a one time deal on a monday? Every small savings really help at this point, cause my social security budget is very tight and hardly making it, that is why I am very eager to learn this online business that is not a scam. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise and wisdom. Us old folks, me in particular is not a tech savvy, but willing to work hard for anything that will help financially, in a legit way.
Blessings
Hey Carmie, Cyber Monday is typically a one-day event that follows the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. It’s known for offering significant discounts and deals on various products and services, including online business courses and resources. While Cyber Monday can provide an opportunity to save money on your desired online business course, it’s important to note that the discounted price may only be available for a limited time.
I understand the importance of finding legitimate opportunities to improve your financial stability. It’s commendable that you’re willing to put in the effort to learn and work hard in a legitimate way. Remember, with determination and persistence, you can achieve your goals.
Hello Ivan! I am very grateful for all of yours training. A real practical information, so thank you very much! I just want to ask if somebody from Westers Balkan countries could be successful with affiliate marketing using for example Amazon? Thanks, and all the best from Serbia
Hey Lorand, thanks for your kind words! I’m thrilled to hear that the training tips were helpful. My goal is to give you the info you need to crush it in affiliate marketing.
Now, to answer your question about whether someone from Serbia – or the Western Balkan countries, for that matter – can succeed in affiliate marketing with Amazon… Absolutely! Affiliate marketing doesn’t have any geographical restrictions, so anyone can get after it and achieve success. In fact, I’ve met a handful of successful affiliates from Serbia so far.
So no worries, Amazon Associates is a super well-known affiliate program that folks around the world use to earn mad commissions. Basically, you create content (like product reviews or recommendation lists), throw in your unique affiliate links, and get paid when people buy from Amazon through them.
To kick butt at affiliate marketing, you need to know your audience (niche), understand their interests and needs, and in this case it is product reviews, and then craft amazing content that’ll help them solve the problem. And if you can hone in on certain niches or industries, you’re even more likely to get those conversions (hint: Lessons 2 and 7 are really helpful with this!).
Just remember: success with affiliate marketing doesn’t happen overnight, but with time, effort, and a clever strategy, you’ll get there. Trust me. If you’ve got more questions or need some support along the way, don’t be shy. I’m here to help.
Cheers,
Ivan
PS. Ja sam iz Hrvatske i dobro mi ide 🙂
Hvala Ivane! Zaista mi je drago da sam naisao na tvoj trening. Jedan si od retkih koji dele toliko prakticnih i korisnih informacija i to besplatno. Svaka cast! Bicu slobodan da ti pisem, ako negde zapnem 🙂
Veliki pozdrav,
Lorand
Hey Lorand, nema na cemu. Drago mi je cuti to. I tvom sam kutu ukoliko zatrebas pomoc ili budes imao nekakvih pitanja. Sretno! 🙂
Hey Ivan, I live in kenya africa and amazon doesn’t accept affiliates from my country. Can I use Any other program? Can I still use A2 hosting and WordPress for other programs or is it specific for amazon? Am so new in online marketing please kindly advice.
Thanks.
Shamila.
Hey Shamila, I’m pretty sure that you can join the Amazon US affiliate program from anywhere in the world, even from Keny. Alternatively, you can try ShareASale or Commission Junction, eBay maybe. You can use A2 Hosting and WordPress also from anywhere in the world.
Give it a try and let me know how it goes. If you don’t get accepted into Amazon’s affiliate program, you can try others or ask A2 to refund your purchase. You have 30 days to test it.
I hope this helps!
Ivan
Hi Ivan-
I’m in the middle of Lesson 4; I made it to the part about customizing the appearance of my website. However, when I clicked on “Customize,” I get a message that says “There has been a critical error on this website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions.” I have not yet received an email about the instructions.
Also, out of curiosity, I clicked on Tools > Site Health. From there, I discovered 2 critical issues:
(1) “TurboCache is available but not enabled.” – When I click on the “Enable Caching” link, I see a message that says “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.”
(2) “Caching is disabled.” – Again, the “Enable Caching” link appears, and I get the same aforementioned error message.
There were 7 other recommended improvements listed under this Site Health section as well.
Even though I’m stressed out and frustrated about getting stuck on this step, I am determined not to give up on this. Please help me at your earliest convenience. Thank you kindly!
~Alicia
Hey Alicia,
It has been brought to my attention that A2 Hosting was updating the platform and their service today and yesterday, which caused a few small errors. If you are still seeing the critical error message, please, contact A2 Hosting Support and ask them to inspect the issue.
Where exactly did you find this Site Health feature? I searched my cPanel and didn’t find it anywhere.
(1) Maybe you need to upgrade your hosting package to enable Turbo Cache. I personally don’t use it so I can’t recommend you any course of action.
(2) If you are experiencing errors, once again, please, contact A2 Hosting support and let them know about it.
Don’t get frustrated. These tech issues are a part of the business. You can’t have a successful online business without experiencing hundreds and even thousands of errors like that every single year. I know because I’m talking from experience.
Thank you very much for your response, Ivan!
Just to follow up, I took your advice and reached out to A2 Hosting’s support and they fixed the issue. They informed me that the site was trying to consume more PHP memory than allowed in the PHP setting, which caused the error message. So, they resolved this issue by increasing the allowed limit.
As far as the caching goes, I don’t have access to any extra server side caching since I am on the Startup Plan. However, I do have access to some general Page Caching and other options to increase my site’s speed, and they enabled those for me. I thought I’d share this with others who might be experiencing similar issues.
I was able to successfully complete Lesson 5, and on my way to Lesson 6. I’m so excited about this!
To answer your question about the Site Feature, I found it under the “Tools” tab in the left-hand panel…between “Users” and “Settings” in the dashboard.
Thank you again for reminding me about the patience, practice, and perseverance I need to have in order to be successful in this business. I wish I met you years ago on this affiliate marketing journey!
I thoroughly enjoy the way you explain everything in a way that I can easily follow and understand in this training. You truly do have the heart of a teacher, and it’s quite refreshing to see the passion and transparency in sharing your experiences as well. Keep up the excellent work, Ivan!
Hey Alicia, thanks a ton for getting back to me! I’m glad to hear that you took my advice and contacted A2 Hosting’s support team, and it’s awesome to know that they were able to identify and fix the problem with your website.
As for caching, I get that you don’t have access to more server-side options on the Startup Plan, but it’s great that you were able to enable some general page caching and other tweaks to improve speed. Sharing that info with others who might have similar issues is super helpful, so thanks for doing that!
Congrats on finishing Lesson 5 and moving on to Lesson 6! I can tell you’re pumped, and I’m excited for you too. Keep that momentum going and enjoy the learning process.
Thanks for the shoutout about my teaching style—I’m truly passionate about passing on what I know and I’m glad it’s been working for you. Remember, patience, practice, and perseverance are key to success in this business, and I’m happy to help in any way I can. Better late than never, right? 🙂
If you need any further help or have questions, contact anytime. I’m here to support you all the way. Keep up the awesome work, Alicia!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
I’ve received a report from Yoast on my posts as follows:
1. SEO: No Focus Keyphrase
2. SEO score – (Red dot) Focus Keyphrase Not Set
3. Readability Score – Not Available.
What should I do to score in these areas?
Thank you for all your help.
– Wanjiru
Hey Wanjru,
1. Add your focus keyword into the field in the plugin section below your content. Your focus keyword is “product name review” For example, in my video, I review Jura E8 espresso machine. The focus keyword that I want to rank for is “Jura E8 Review”
2. Once you add your focus keyword, the SEO score will change. If you follow all the instructions from Lesson 12, you should get all green lights. If you still get a few red or yellow lights, make sure to follow plugins clear instructions on what is missing and what you need to do to get green lights.
3. Readability score should be available as soon as you enter some content in your review.
Make sure to do this optimization once you finish writing your content.
Let me know how it goes.
A piece of aditional advice: Don’t stress over it. YOAST SEO plugin is just a tool that helps tweak your SEO a bit. It is not a critical factor in ranking your reviews in Google. Just make sure that you implement instructions from Lesson 12 and you’ll be fine.
Hi Ivan,
Thank you for your reply. I’m working on it the optimization and it’s working.
Some good but also a scaring news. I received this message from Google: “…Google systems confirm that on May 16, 2023 we started collecting Google Search impressions for your website in Search Console….” I’m excited but also overwhelmed. I didn’t know it would happen this fast!!! I’ve only published 2 reviews.
I really must get those reviews going. And I still have so much to learn about Google Search, optimization, etc. Let me get on with it.
Cheers,
Wanjiru.
Hey Wanjiru, glad to hear that the optimization is working for you! That’s for sharing that you received a message from Google saying they’re tracking your search impressions. That is awesome news! More visibility and visitors for your site!
Keep up the good work with reviews, they’re valuable for your audience. Learning about SEO can be complex, so take it one step at a time. Focus on the stuff from Lessons 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 for better visibility and ranking.
And keep in mind that SEO is ongoing, so don’t stress about mastering everything at once. The most important aspect are your reviews and their qualtiy, so keep on improving! As always, feel free to ask me any specific questions or if you’re lost.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hey Igor-
I have a question about 1/. the logging-in process to my website and 2/. about the correct server to select
1/.The usual log-in procedure is to type in the search bar
www. yoursite.com/wp-admin…and you get access to yr dashboard.
Why do you encourage logging in with Softaculous through the A2 hosting instead of the above? Is it for better security??
2/. Being located in Australia I have selected Singapore for my server- However, I am mindful of US traffic as well- should I change servers?
Thank you in advance-
Frank W.
Hey Frank,
1. No particular reason. I guess it’s a matter of habit. I’m sure security-wise it’s the same. You can log into your site any way you like.
2. You should select the server location closest to your users. Assuming that your site is going to be in English, most of your users will come from the US. For that reason, you should select either Michigan or Arizona. The former might be the best option because A2 Hosting company is located in Michigan.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
I’ve joined the people who cannot access Lesson 14.
I’ve tried clearing the cache multiple times and restarting the browser. Still no success.
I can access all the other lessons.
Cheers,
Wanjiru.
Hey Wanjiru, there was some issue with the player. Lesson 14 works now (screenshot attached below). I tested it in 3 different browsers on desktop and two different browsers on mobile on both Android phone and IOS phone, so it should work. Could you try again now, please?
It doesn’t work
Hey Aleks, I disabled the plugin that may have caused the issues. Could you refresh the page and let me know if it works now, please?
Hi Ivan,
It works now. I can access Lesson 14.
Thank you for the training. I will keep you informed of my progress and I look forward to the advanced version.
Cheers.
– Wanjiru.
Hey Wanjiru, thanks for the update. I’m thrilled to hear that it finally works! Keep on taking action, keep on crafting high-quality reviews and do let me know if you will need any help along the way. You are doing great!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
Have a question, can’t seem to access the very last lesson #14. You stated that this is the most important that will break it or not. So how do I access this very last lesson in the training session. Thanks for all your help.
Hey Carmie, for some unknown reason, people have troubles loading the last lesson. Every time I check it on all my devices, it works normaly. What usually does the trick is cleaning your browser’s cache folder and restarting your browser and then playing the video. Try that and let me know if it does the trick.
Hi Ivan,
Thanks for responding, but still can’t access #14- it says coming soon. Went through all the lessons just to have a feel and look for what is in the training. I was able to except #14. Now, I am not quite so sure if I can get to the full training. Thanks again.
Hey Carmie, lesson 14 is the last lesson and it loads fine. The comming soon lesson is the advanced training that compliments to core training and it is not ready yet. I will publish it during this year and let you know when it is live. That said, you do have access the full training. Lesson 1-14 all work.
Hello Ivan,
Wanjiru here again.
I have published two reviews and would be grateful if you could have a look and tell me if I’m on the right path. I have struggled with images and I know I’ve not done it right and will have to go through Lesson 12 again.
I have not yet done Lessons 13 and 14.
Thank you so, so much for your generosity in giving these lessons. May God bless you.
Hey Wanjiru, congratulations on publishing your reviews! I will be happy to take a look and share my feedback with you. Could you please send me the links to your reviews here or via email?
Hi Ivan,
I’m not sure what the link is but my website is http://www.yourbouncingbaby.com
I hope this helps.
Hey Wanjiru, thanks for sharing.
I just came back from your site. I read both reviews that you have published so far. The first one, HALO BassiNest Review is fantastic. I like every single detail about it. The second one is also good.
However, I can see some room for improvement in the second review, but nothing you didn’t already do in your first review. For example, some of the headings are bolded and others aren’t. You should uniform them all just like in your first review. Furthermore, I like how you added links to outside expert sources in your first review. That is good for the SEO so you can do that in all of your reviews. Also, I would advise that you don’t talk about the price of the product as that is against Amazon affiliate terms.
Other than that, I don’t see any major red flags. Your reviews are easy and interesting to read. Most importantly, they provide helpful and well-researched information, which is the main goal. You have done a very good job so far. Keep it up!
Thank you Ivan for taking time to look at my reviews
I will implement your recommendations.
Best regards,
Wanjiru.
Hey Wanjiru, you’re welcome. Keep up the good work!
Hi Ivan,
It’s Wanjiru again.
I’m unable to go beyond my WordPress Dashboard.
I cannot edit my post – when I click “edit” the page goes blank.
And I cannot even start a new post.
Please help.
Hey Wanjiru, try clearing your cache from inside of the WordPress dashboard. Click on the Clear Cache link located at the top of your WordPress dashboard. Then, try and edit your post. If this doesn’t work, please contact A2 Hosting support from your A2 Hosting account. They will know what to do.
Hi Ivan,
Thank you for the training!
I am currently going through your free affiliate marketing training and I wanted to ask about some things I am not sure about, I am from the UK and naturally, I use the UK Amazon site, not the US one, does it have to be amazon.com when I am registering for the Amazon affiliate program? I am a little bit confused about this step,
I was trying to register a domain name for A2 Hosting you recommended and I have been stuck with that part for a while, I finally picked a domain name but I am unsure which server location to select! Can you suggest the server location to select?
Your help is greatly appreciated and I hope you would not mind me asking you more questions as I go through the training.
Kind regards,
Suraya
Hey Suraya, you’re welcome!
In your case, I recommend registering for both the Amazon dot com affiliate program and the Amazon UK affiliate program. Then, simply leverage the Amazon One Link feature to make your affiliate links international. That way, if a visitor from the US clicks on your link, he or she will go to the US website, and if a person from the UK clicks on your links, he or she will go to the UK website. You have to join both affiliate programs to earn commissions.
That said, because most of your visitors will be from the US, you should select a server location in the US. Michigan might be the best option for you.
I hope this helps.

Ivan
Hi Ivan,
Thank you for the lessons and your patience in answering our questions.
WordPress keeps recommending downloading WordPress 6.2.
Should I do that? Will it affect anything I have not completed yet?
– Wanjiru
Hey Wanjiru, you can safely update WordPress to the latest version. It is not going to affect your unfinished work. Always update plugins and WordPress whenever you see a notification. If you want to be safe before updating, you can install a backup plugin like All In One WP Migration or Updraft Plus and save your site before allowing any updates.
Can use only in android cellphone?
Hey Mary Jane, you can use your smartphone to watch the training. But since I use a laptop in my videos, it is recommended to have one as well when you start implementing the instructions from the videos. And generally speaking, a laptop (or PC) is a much better tool for this.
Do I have to… Get the product shipped to me…. In order to review it?
Hey Elliot, no, you don’t have to get the product shipped to you. You can review it by doing a through product research online. Check out lessons 8, 9 and 10 for more information.
Hey Ivan: Nice post as always. The thing is, I’ve been following and doing everything, but when I try to bring up my site, I keep getting “Nothing Found”. I tried clearing my cache files, but keep getting the same thing. Can you help? Thanks, in advance.
Reginald
Hey Reginald, did you try clearing cache files from within your WordPress dashboard? Also, try deactivating A2 Optimized. That should work.
Let me know how it goes.
Well Ivan:
1. I’ve tried clearing my cache so many times, it’s crazy.
2. Did you mean: Plugins > A2 Optimized > Deactivate…? If so, I just tried that and it didn’t work. I still try accessing my site (I type the url into the search bar) and still get “Nothing found”
I’ve tried googling the problem. I’ve tried going on YouTube. I’m not getting any solutions that make sense to me.
Hey Reginald,
Yes, I meant that. It usually works. Contact A2 Hosting Support and ask them to take a look at it. It must be something that they can do from their side of things.
Let me know how it goes.
Hello, Ivan: Well, that problem has be resolved. The reason for the “Nothing Found” error was because the post that I was experimenting with while following you was never posted. It was still in draft mode. A2 published the post themselves, and the “nothing showing” error disappeared. If the post still needs to be completed, it can be edited and updated. Thanks for the help.
HEy Reginald, I’m glad to hear that you have managed to solve the problem with the help of guys from A2!
Hi Ivan,
I don’t see a permalink option under my settings on my WordPress.com site. I’ve searched on google and can’t find an answer. Any suggestions?
Hey Serena, it should be there right between Media and Privacy in your Settings. I’m not sure why you are not seeing this option. I just checked all my WordPress sites and the Permalinks settings are there. Are you hosting your site on A2 hosting as recommended in my training? If so, try contacting A2 Hosting support and ask them to look into that for you.
Let me know how it goes!
Cheers,
IVan
Hi Ivan.
Just to check if there’s any issue with lesson 14? Seems that it’s the only lesson that I can’t watch.
Regards
Hey Nizam, I just checked Lesson 14 in multiple browsers and it works fine, even on mobile. Try clearing your browser’s cache folder and refresh the page. That usually works in cases like this. Let me know how it goes.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan.
All good brother. Thanks for the advice.
Cheers
You’re welcome, Nizam!
Hi Ivan,
I have done two reviews and requested permission from the manufacturers to use their images.
One said they are looking into it while the other has not responded. I’m unable to move forward without images.
What’s your and others’ experience concerning images?
Best regards.
Hez Wanjiru, it’s fair to ask for images first. But even if you don’t ask the manufacturer, it is still ok to use images of their products. There is something called the Fair Use doctrine. Fair use is a doctrine in United States law that permits limited use of copyrighted material without having to first acquire permission from the copyright holder. You can read more about it on Wikipedia.
That said, if you are going to be using just a few images for the purpose of reviewing a product, you should be fine. I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Ivan
Thank you Ivan.
That helps a lot.
You’re welcome. Glad to hear that!
I need help with coaching to get started.
I followed the teaching videos but not seems to UNDERSTAND anything yet.
Hey Viviane, how can I help? What part don’t you understand?
Hi Ivan! How are you? My name is Cecilia and I’m from Argentina. I’m starting to watch your classes, and although I can understand English, for the sake of convenience, I would like the class videos to have Spanish subtitles. Is that possible? I’ve sent you an email but in case you frequently check the messages here I choose this way too.
Regards!
Hey Cecilia,
I’m great, thanks! How are you?
I’m not quite sure I can do that. I will see what can I do though. But I can’t promise anything.
I hope you are enjoying the training! 🙂
I’m seem to be getting a “Customize: Loading…” on the tab. My page is completely blank on the main section of the page. It is not giving me options to edit or even see my domain name at the top. I am not sure if I did something wrong or it is a truly slow load… Thank you for your help!!
Hey Todd, the problem you are experiencing is probably related to the caching system. Try clicking the “Clear Cache” link that is located in the top bar inside your WordPress dashboard. If this doesn’t help, deactivate the A2 Optimized plugin and that should solve the issue. If nothing happens, contact A2 Hosting support.
Let me know how it works!
Cheers,
Ivan
My site didn’t show up on my wordpress page. What do i do?
Hey Mitch, sorry to hear that. Did you follow the steps from Lesson 3?
If you are experiencing tech issues with your site, I recommend that you contact A2 Hosting Support ASAP. They will know how to help you with this.
Cheers,
Ivan
Can you do this from South Africa, I do not see this as an option on Amazon’s website?
Hey Marietjie, you can do this from South Africa. Just go to Amazon.com and click on the Become Affiliate link located in the footer of the website as per instructions from Lesson 6. You don’t have to be in the US to participate in the Amazon US affiliate program. I hope this helps.
So, there’s no program that you pay for?
Hey Arnie, you only have to pay for hosting and domain name and a keyword tool. The training is free 🙂
Hey Ivan, it’s Ty again.
Just wondering, I’ve made an Australian Amazon Affiliate account, I’m not sure how to create a USA one. Will this heavily affect my potential income if I continue using an Australian Amazon link?
Hey Ty, just go to Amazon.com and click on the Become Affiliate link located in the footer of the website. You should use Amazon.com links if your site is going to be in English unless you are going to target a specific niche that is Australia-specific.
Hey Ivan,
I’m currently on about 35 reviews so far. Starting to see my website in google searches finally. I have one question though, if I post more than 1 review a day, does that speed up the process? Or am I adding too much extra work to my day?
Also I really appreciate this course, and hope to start making some money soon!
Hey Ty, congratulations on your progress thus far! More than one review a day might have a positive effect, however, I don’t recommend it. Doing too much for too long can lead to burnout. But if you feel that you have enough time and resources, go for it. You create your own posting schedule.
Send me with the link to lesson3 or step 3 of how to creat a personal web site
Hey Kenneth, here is the link to Lesson 3: https://freeaffiliatemarketingbusiness.com/lesson-3/
I hope this helps. Let me know if you need more help!
Cheers,

How do l acess the video showing how to creat your own website.am not seeing it
Hey Kenneth, you can access all videos from this page: https://freeaffiliatemarketingbusiness.com/training-modules/
You can also find this page in the main menu labelled “Training”
I hope this helps. Let me know if you need more help!

Hai Ivan,
I don,t know how to implement this course in the dutch language, because I am going to sell via Amazon.nl
I guess it is impossible to sell on th amazon.us !?
greetings Pat
Hey Patrick, I recommend that you create an Amazon.com affiliate account and do your site in English for the best results. The United States is the largest market and you can target that market from the Netherlands as well. Just follow the instructions from the training and you’ll be fine.
Hello, Ivan.
On my Shopify store, I sell Print on Demand products. Now I’d like to follow your course to do affiliate marketing on my Shopify store via Shopify’s blog post. Is that ok?
I also followed your advice and purchased A2 Shared Hosting Turbo to create another website.
Thank you very much.
Hey Koong, I would recommend building a site from scratch by following the instructions from this training. Shopify Print On Demand and Affiliate Marketing are not the same.
Hey Ivan,
Wondering how to add a LOGO like you did on your coffee maker site.
I don’t believe you went over that part.
Thanks – your program is great!
Janet
Hey Janet, I actually show how to add a logo in this lesson: https://freeaffiliatemarketingbusiness.com/lesson-4/
I’m glad to hear that you are enjoying the program. I’m in your corner in case you need any help!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi: My name is Reginald. I’ve been following your advise and am now up to lesson 7. However, I decided to redo my logo. So, I did. I also added the 3 pages “About me, etc” like you said. So, today (4/26/23, when I clicked on “view page” to make sure everything is working, all I got was a totally blank screen. I’m really confused now. I can’t seem to contact a live person. Thanks for listening.
Hey Reginald, congratulations on your progress thus far. The problem is in A2 Optimized plugin. Go to your WordPress dashboard and click on the Clear Cache link at the top of the page. That should solve the issue. If it persists, simply delete the plugin and everything should be fine. Let me know how it goes.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan!
Once I click save draft and then preview the preview doesn’t show? What have I done wrong?
Hey Katherina, you didn’t do anything wrong. The A2 Optimized plugin sometimes conflicts with your browsers causing the issue you are experiencing. The easy fix is to click on the Clear Cache link in the black top bar inside your WordPress dashboard. If this doesn’t solve it, simply delete the plugin. You can do well without it too.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
the video for Lesson 14 isn’t playing – just white screen with no play button. Could you help?
Thanks for the free course with all the tips! Can you advice any books or resources for deeper learning, for example more about SEO stuff, etc? I’m a total newbie and I want to make things run really well.
Hey Julia, I just updated the page and the video and works. I tested it in two different browsers and the video loads and plays. Check it out now and sorry for the inconvenience.
If you are interested in learning more about affiliate marketing and SEO, I suggest watching a few beginner-friendly guides on YouTube and then if you want more, enroll into a premium course such as The Authority Site System for example.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hey Ivan,
thanks a lot, the video works now.
Thank you again for the free course and for the advice!
Glad to hear that. Best of luck 🙂
Ivan,
I’ve purchased my website and I was following #4 where you are explaining how to build the Word Press info, however, I’m getting a notice that says this is not safe and I cannot access perhaps due to something configured in my computer system. It is saying my information is not safe – could you please help me know how to get past this screen safely so I can move to the screen that you are showing? I am not computer savvy – sorry.
Hey Janet, don’t worry. This happens all the time. The issue is related to your SSL certificate that secures your site from hackers, which you get for free with A2 hosting, but it takes a bit for the certificate to activate. It should activate on its own during the first 24 hours.
You can speed things up. go to your cPanel and scroll down until you see the Security field then click on the SSL/TLS Status link. On the next page, tick all the boxes and click on the Run AutoSSL button to start. If this doesn’t work, contact the support and they will assist you.
Cheers,
Ivan
Do I need to get a business license? What about EIN# for my business? And how do I handle taxation of by earnings?
Hey Dawn, no, you don’t need a business licence. You can earn income through affiliate marketing and self-assess taxes on your earnings every year. Please, don’t take this as financial advice. I’m not a tax expert. Contact your accountant or another tax professional to help you with tax obligations in your country.
hi ivan i have a big problem.my hearing is about gone. i just cant hear enough to listen to the videos . i can read fine just cant understand what is being said. my daughter has to write most of our commnication. i guess because of that i probly cant do your course. a lot of programs on how to make money are ba. i think you are sincer but i dont think i can do your coursel because of the hearing problem. thank you
Hey Frank, I’m sorry to hear that. I believe the videos allow you to turn on Close Caption mode. It might be a bit harder to follow the instructions that way, but it’s worth giving it a shot. I hope this helps.
Hi Ivan, what is the reason we need to delete plugins such as Jetpack?
Hey Rohit, it is because I don’t use Jetpack on my sites. If you want to keep it, you can.
Hi Ivan,
I can’t open my website.
When I get to the WordPress – A2 Optimized and click on my website “admin” it give an error message that I can’t solve ro open my website. Error message displayed is: “NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID”.
Do you know how to solve this issue as I can’t proceed with the course if I can’t open the website.
Can it be that I am in another time zone than the server I used in Mitchigan. I am in South Africa.
Kind Regards.
Franciscus
Hey Francis, I don’t know why you can’t access your site. You should contact A2 Hosting support and ask them to check it out. It’s not because of your server or your own location. Contact the support and let me know what they say.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
1. Is it advisable to review best-selling items?
2. What does it mean when a product is “sponsored”?
3. Some items are indicated something like “50+ sold in the last week”. Should reviews be based on the number of items sold? Should we review high-selling items?
Sorry to ask so many questions, but I want to do this just right.
Hey Wanjiru,
1. Yes, it’s a great idea.
2. Amazon FBA seller is promoting the product. You can still review it and link to it.
3. You can base your reviews on the number of items sold. It doesn’t really matter which way you go. It’s important that products are good and you create helpful reviews.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan I have Published several pages to my site. I have been trying to get Green SEO analysis with some marginal success. Should I invest in the Yoast SEO Premium ? Will it help me get Google traffic to sales? Or is this just a matter of time ?
Hey Gregory, no, you don’t need to invest in Yoast SEO Premium. It’s not going to help you to get traffic and sales. It’s just a plugin that indicates how to perform some small SEO tasks, that’s all. Your content and its quality are the #1 SEO factor that you should care about.
I just checked your site, by the way. Good job with your reviews. It is just a matter of time (3-6 months) before Google picks up your site and reviews, rank them and send traffic your way.
May I suggest adding some more “meat” to your reviews? Google and readers love in-depth reviews and if you invest a bit more time into adding more content to your reviews, you will increase your chances of getting top positions in Google.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
Thank you for your tutorials.
What should I do when monthly search data for a product is unavailable on KWFinder, yet the keyword difficulty is low?
My niche is baby products.
Hey Wanjiru, you’re welcome.
If the search data is unavailable, it is most likely that there isn’t any search volume for that keyword. This could be for a couple of reasons. It could be that the product is still new and it didn’t reach the wide market yet. Or it could be that it is simply not as popular on the market.
You can still do a review and hope that it is the first scenario. In that case, you will get a good chance of ranking high because the keyword difficulty is low. And if the product kicks in, and search volume increases in the future, you will get most of the traffic.
But the better option would be to compete for a product review keyword that has a higher search volume. At least 100 searches a month would be the minimum.
I hope this helps.
Ivan
Thank you Ivan.
Yes, you are a great help.
You’re welcome, Wanjiru!
Hi Ivan,
how do I paste my photo on the About Me page?
Hey Anna, I show how to do that in Lesson 12 I believe. If you haven’t reached that lesson, here is a short YouTube tutorial: https://youtu.be/vx9jHSMnGng
Thank you, Ivan, I will check it out.
You’re welcome, Anna. I’m in your corner in case you need help.
Cheers,
Ivan
I am very grateful for this, Ivan, more than you may think. You make possible for me something that prior to meeting you online seemed impossible, thank you.
Hey Anna, glad to hear that. Keep on taking action and best of luck 🙂
I. Hope it’s well understoded
Happy Easter. You just changed my life. You are the only person that actually shows people how to get started in affiliate marketing in just 4 steps! And without charging them thousands of dollars! This is insane because I already subscribed to one of these companies that do charge thousands of dollars for affiliate marketing!!! God bless you!!!! And may he take care of you!!! You have just given a poor person a way out of my poverty, you see I live in a Hotel room, thats it nothing fancy,But I am grateful for it…Now since I found you I can get out of here! Thank you very much! and I will keep you abreast of my progress. Cheers!
Hey William, Happy Easter to you too! And thanks for your kind words. I’m glad to hear that you like what I’m doing here and I’m looking forward to helping you achieve your goals!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan
I Published my first review 2023/02/17 and my 51st review on 2023/04/0 and still nothing. What can we do to help with getting traffic to sales?
Hey Daniel, first of all, congratulations on taking the 90 days challenge seriously! I just read a few of your reviews. You are doing a great job!
Secondly, understand that Google’s algorithm is a bit slow when it comes to giving rankings to new sites in the first 3-6 months. It’s called a sandbox period and it basically means that Google doesn’t take new sites seriously right away. Here is what they say about it “It can take a bit of time for search engines to catch up with your content, and to learn to treat it appropriately. It’s one thing to have a fantastic website, but search engines generally need a bit more to be able to confirm that, and to rank your site — your content — appropriately.”
So my advice is to keep on publishing helpful reviews on your site. Once Google picks up your content, your reviews will start ranking. And once this happens, all your work during the first 3-6 months will be rewarded in the next period. So the more you publish during this initial sandbox period, the better results you can expect during the next 3-6 months. That’s why I challenged you with the 90-day challenge.
I hope this helps. Once again, you are doing a great job! Keep it up and don’t worry! Once traffic starts coming it’s going to come quickly and fast!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hey Ivan
Thanks for your reply and encouragement!! I guess we get we get a bit anxious!!
One final question is it worth getting an SEO company to optimize and guide the website over time? ie.. keywords, backlinks etc….
Hey Daniel, no problem. Glad to help.
Eventually, you can hire an SEO company to help you with your SEO. But for now, you are going to do great with what you have learned from the training here. Remember, the number one SEO factor is great content. Google is a content company and they reward sites with the best content with high rankings in search results. Focus on that and you’ll be fine.
Cheers,
Ivan
How do you recommend reviewing high end products – how do we acquire them to review? Even your coffee guy in video one would spend over $10000 to purchase the items he reviewed. Please advise.
Hey Anthony, the detailed answer to your question can be found in Lessons 7, 8 and 9.
You don’t need to buy products to review them. In a nutshell, a great review consists of a few ingredients. But the main ingredient is thorough research. Most product reviews online are the result of detailed product research. And those best reviews, the ones that hold top positions in Google have done the best research and users find them the most helpful. The coffee guy in the video doesn’t buy the machines. He rent’s them. And he’s so far the only one I’ve seen doing that. Everyone else is just doing the research.
Of course, sometimes, it is beneficial to purchase the product that you are going to review but it is not mandatory. You can still write an honest review if you honestly do the product research and share your honest opinion in your review.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
IVan
Hi Ivan, followed your instructions but the website I was creating cannot be viewed. “Server IP address could not be found.” How can I fix it?
Hey Hannah, are you sure you sent me the right website address? I tried the one you left in the comment form and it’s not registered. I also went over to my A2 hosting dashboard to check under registered domains and I didn’t find your website. Could you check again, please?
Cheers,
Ivan
Really love the training. very precise and understandable to a newbies like me in the field of Affiliate Marketing.
Thank you Ivan for sharing the knowledge and drawing my attention and interest into this exciting field of Affiliate Marketing.
I would be very much interested to update with your up coming training in the future.
please informed me as soon as your new programs are out via my email.
Thank you..
Hey Sakias, I’m happy to hear that. I’m glad to help you to get started with affiliate marketing. And I will update you as soon as I release new training. You’ll get it straight in your email.
Cheers,
Ivan
As I’m a SA citizen, will I earn in Rands or Dollars? Do you have SA members that perhaps can assist me in my home language – Afrikaans.
Thank you and kind regards
Hey Elize, I recommend joining Amazon.com, which is focused on the US market. But you can get paid in your local currency. A few people from SA joined the course so far, but I’m not able to share their information. Let me know if I can help.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
Sorry for asking so many questions.
I’m at the point of opening an Amazon Affiliate Account. It offers payment options of Gift Card or Check. Direct transfer is only available for USA residents. What method would you recommend for people outside the USA?
HEy Wanjiru, no problem.
You can receive your money via bank transfer even if you are outside the US. Go to the Payment Method page in your Associate’s account and click on the +Bank Account link. Then, click on the +Add a new bank account link. Then, select your country. Select your currency. Enter your bank account details. And save.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hello Ivan.
Thank you for the lessons. You are very clear in your instructions and I look forward to finishing the training.
My question – do I need to buy an SSL Certificate? What are the advantages?
Hey Wanjiru, you’re welcome. I’m glad to hear that.
No. You get one for free from A2 Hosting once you set up your domain and hosting with them. It helps prevent eavesdropping, impersonation, data theft, identity theft and Man-in-the-middle attacks as it encrypts all data in transit. It reduces the risk of phishing attacks.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hello Ivan,
Thank you so much for taking your time to Educate us, I would like to ask if I have to only connect my website to google just once or do I keep connecting it after making each reviews
Hey Ray, you’re welcome. It’s enough to connect your website to Google just once. Once you do so, Google will automatically update your file and search for new content on your site. You can help it by submitting a new URL (your new post) in the console each time you make a new review. Here is how it works: https://www.contentkingapp.com/academy/google-index/faq/submit-url/
I hope this helps.
Ivan
Dear Ivan
Before I dive in this course, I have something to ask. So the most important thing is that we need to write reviews for the products we are passionate about. In terms of writing, it then requires a very high level of English. But English is actually not my mother tongue, is it still possible for me to do this business or there’s a way to write a good review even you are not native English speaker?
Cheers,
Nansheng
Hey Nensheng, welcome to the course, by the way!
First of all, if you haven’t told me that English is not your mother tongue, I wouldn’t have noticed it. What I want to say is that your English is GREAT and no, you don’t need to have a high level of English to become successful in this business. I’m from Europe and English is the second language I’m doing just fine just like millions of affiliates from all over the world!
What’s great about this method is that your English will improve even further as you get more and more proficient at writing reviews in English. Moreover, it’s much more fun to do it in English than in your mother tongue. At least that was my experience 🙂 and I have a feeling that you will have the same experience as me!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hey Nen,
Same reply as Ivan, and I am english born! Just wanted to say you can hire writers in lots of places online. I have written professionally.
Hi when i put in review in the title and look for key words it goes to 10 per month but if i leave out review in text it goes up a lot with the keyword research for one example:
Razer Blade Laptop: 24 (KD) 2.3K per month search
Razer Blade Laptop Review 37 (KD) 30 per month search
KD = keyword Difficulty
so i don’t know what to do ???
best regards
Matt
Hey Matt, that’s a good thing because you can get ranked for both keywords, “Razer Blade Laptop” and “Razer Blade Laptop Review”. So essentially, your review can show up on the first page of Google when someone just searches for a Razer Blade Laptop to learn more without typing in the review! And you can get some of those 2.3K people who are interested in this laptop to land on your page and perhaps purchase it through your affiliate links.
This is a great situation. Don’t worry about it and just follow the instructions from the course to learn how to research and write a high-quality review. And if you will be having any questions down the road, just let me know!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hello Ivan,
I’m making very slow progress. I could not log in into my WordPress website and support told me I had not installed WordPress and instructed me to do so.
I then continued with Setting up Your Affiliate Website. All was ok until I reached plug-ins. My plug-ins are different from those on your page. My page has Akismet Anti-spam, Hello Dolly, and Loginizer.
Hey Wanjiru, thanks for the update. I’m glad you managed to sort out the installation issue. As for the plugins, you can delete them all and just keep or install the ones that are in my videos. I hope this helps!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi lvan,
I think the problem is that I installed WordPress instead of WordPress A2 Optimized.
Can l uninstall WordPress and install WordPress A2 Optimized?
Hey Wanjiru, yes, you can uninstall WordPress and install WordPress A2 Optimized. If you bump into any issues, just make sure to reach out to A2 support as well. They have better know-how on the topic.
Cheers,
Ivan
Thank you Ivan.
No problem, Wanjiru!
Thank you Ivan.
I have now installed WordPress A2 Optimized.
I now expect to make good progress with the lessons.
Hey Wanjiru, you’re welcome. I’m gald to hear that you are no able to move forward. Keep up the good work!
Cheers,
Ivan
RE: Affiliate for Amazon.
Do you need a separate domain name and website / hosting for each product / niche that you are reviewing for Amazon?
eg. 100 different products / niches therefore 100 different domain names and website hosting?
Hey Leo, the rule is one niche per website. You can review 1000 products in one niche on one website. You can also mix similar niches on one website. For example, if you decide to start with golf club reviews, and you run out of golf clubs to review, you can keep on going with golf balls reviews. Simply create a new category and you are set.
I hope this answers your questions.
Cheers,
Ivan
Dear Ivan
I have finished building my post review, not very well done, 1st time and just need to do it to get the experience.
When I tried to Preview the page but is blank (have set to view on new tab)?
Hey Khairudin, your page is blank when you try to preview the content because of the A2 Optimized plugin. What you can do is save your post as a draft, or if it is published, just save changes and then click on the “Clear Cache” link in the top bar inside WordPress. Your preview should work now. Let me know how it goes!
Cheers,
Ivan
HI Ivan,
i registered the saite and domain name but when i open my wordpress manager i get an error “your connection isn’t private”
and wordress open in unsafe mode without the https and not secure in the url.
Any idea how this can be fixed
you have great training program and my wife and i started our affiliate marketing journey first through your training.
thank you
Hey Adi, first off, congrats on taking action with your affiliate website! Secondly, don’t worry about the security error. Your free SSL certificate is not active yet, and that’s the reason why you are seeing that security error message. Your SSL certificate will activate automatically within the next 24 hours. Until then, you can keep on working on your website in the background. Once again, congratulations on taking action and best of luck to you guys!
Cheers,
Ivan
thank you Ivan
we will be in touch to get some tips from you.
cheers,
Adi
You’re welcome, Adi! I’m in your corner whenever you have questions.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan.
I’m still on Lesson 4, Setting Up Your Affiliate Website.
When I click on Word Press A2 Optimized, then scroll down on the main page, I don’t see my domain. It’s not there.
What should I do?
Hey Wanjiru,
If you can’t see your site there, it might be the case that you didn’t select the WordPress A2 Optimized installation when installing your site. It could be that you have selected a plain WordPress. My best advice is to contact A2 Hosting support, submit a ticket and ask them to locate your admin login.
Let me know how it goes!

Dear Ivan
“You’ve used all of your searches.” message from Keyfinder. What can i do to overcome this without upgrading. Keyfinder have reset a couple of times, this is the most i can get from the free version & i have not found the potential keyword for all/any type of cameras.
Also some cameras do not have the price on the first page but only on the product page, no ranking & some have FBA Sellers, can i promote them?
Regards.
Hey Khairudin,
You can update to a Basic Plan to get more searches. That’s how the free trial works. You get some for free, but if you want more, you have to upgrade.
As far as I’m aware, you can promote any product on Amazon. FBA sellers might not be the best option, but you can promote them still.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hey Ivan,
Where is the community support link?
Hey Karen, you are at the help and support page. There isn’t a link. How can I help you?
Oh okay. Thought maybe there was a Facebook group where we could meet and interact with the other patrons.
1. How are you making money teaching us?
2. Isn’t affiliate market a bygone industry?
Hey Karen,
1. There are a few tools that I use in this training to build a demo site and recommend you to use to build your own affiliate website. I earn a small commission when users invest in tools from this training.
2. Not even close! It’s just warming up! To be honest, I wouldn’t be doing it if it were a bygone industry. The reason why you may have heard so is that people who do other types of online businesses (dropshipping, etc.) may have said so just to convert you to their business model. But the truth is that there is a lot of opportunity in e-commerce in general!
Cheers,
Ivan
Very good Ivan!
I am looking forward to carving the time from my schedule to go through your trainings. It is refreshing, appreciated and often difficult to find a straight shooter such as you are.
Glad to hear that, Karen! Best of luck! I’m in your corner in case you need any help along the way 🙂
Cheers,
Ivan
I see how to get the machine image later in the lesson.
Michael.
Glad you managed 👍
HI Ivan,
Great course but where can I lift the coffee machine image from.
Michael.
Hey Michael, I see you managed 😉
Hi
I have no experience about this business so can I earn mony from this place?
Hey Babu, yes, you can earn money with affiliate marketing even without any experience. Every professional was once a beginner! Keep on taking action and best of luck!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
The amounts shown for A2Hosting on my computer are different from what you’re showing.
For the Start-Up Shared the rates are $2.99 per month for 12 months and $4.99 per month for 36 months. There is no $1.99 per month.
Have the rates changed?
Hey Wanjiru, rates haven’t changed really. I made a foolish mistake and recorded the video on Cyber Monday, which is the reason why prices are lower in the video! But if you take a look at the images below the video, you will see the true price. I hope that’s ok.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan
Can’t access lesson 14.
Hey Martin, I just checked it and it loads up fine. Could you try again, please?
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan I have started this course and I believe that I have found my niche. I wanted to see what you think of it. Is this the best way to talk to you or I can email you
Hey Pushpa Chand, congratulations on taking action with the course! Sure. I’ll help you with your niche. Send me an email with your ideas to ivan@freeaffiliatemarketingbusiness.com and I’ll get back to you ASAP with my thoughts and suggestions.
Cheers,
Ivan
Do you need an Amazon seller to be an Amazon affiliate?
Hey Ture, no, you don’t have to be a seller to become an affiliate for Amazon. You just need to apply for the Affiliate program and that’s it. You can watch lesson 6 for more information!
Cheers,
Ivan
Ivan hate to be so specific, but question about your affiliate website using WP and the Generate Press theme…
So as you know WP by default sets the site as “most current blog posts”. I watched video #3 and I dont see where you mention that? You have a side widget on the home page, but what do you do with the home page settings? Static or current posts? I looked at some of the other Coffee sites and they have a product gallery it seems, rather than a current posts home page?
Also one of the sites you show is now not available? The coffee maven site or something?
Hey Chris,
By default, GeneratePress is set to show the blog roll as the home page. In other words, it is set to current posts by default and you should leave it as is. That’s why I didn’t mention that. Also, I didn’t mention that in the lesson because I don’t think it is important for the context of the course. The course is about creating product reviews, ranking them on Google and earning income with affiliate marketing, not web design, home page design, etc. I hope this makes sense. I will be, however, creating some advanced lessons covering multiple areas, including home page design later this year bear with me here.
By the way, the site TheCoffeeMeaven.com is available. Maybe it was temporarily down while you were checking it out. I just came back from it and it works fine.
Cheers,
Ivan
My website that I created on A2 hosting says that it is not secure when I open it and that I must not put any credit card or important information on it. Why is this? Should this site not be secured?
Hey Dina, it was an SSL certificate. I just visited your site and I can see that the SSL certificate is active now and your site is secure. You were seeing this message because it takes up to a few hours for the hosting company to activate your free SSL certificate. You can keep on working on your site. Great work so far, by the way. Keep it up!
Cheers,
Ivan
Thank you so very much Ivan and thank you so much for this free training. It really is helping me alot.
You’re welcome, Dina! I’m happy to hear that. Keep on moving forward. You are doing great! And do let me know if you need a hand or will be needing my help in the future 🙂
Ivan to be honest I could really use your help if there is any way that you can help me make some sales in the next couple of days? Any tips or ways that can be quick? I am in desperate need of $1000. Or even $500.
Hey Dina, the quickest way to make some sales is by running ads on Google. I will be creating an advanced video training in the next few weeks about the topic of Google Ads and how to use them to get fast sales with your affiliate site. But keep in mind that this is a costly method and it’s not going to yield instant results.
That said, I hate to burst your bubble, but this is not a business of getting rich quickly. Why don’t you take my advice from Lesson 14 and focus on creating product reviews until you start getting free traffic and organic sales? It is a bit longer road, but definitely more rewarding.
Cheers,
Ivan
Ivan,
Yes please I would really appreciate any more tips that you can suggest to make some commissions in the next couple of days? I am in desperate need of $1000 or even $500. Any suggestions?
I understand and I recommend the 90-day challenge for now. I will keep you updated when I finish the advanced training where I’m going to be including some tips on how to run ads on Google to get clicks and possibly sales instantly. If you can’t wait for me to do create my own guide, try a few YouTube guides on Google ads.
Hi Ivan, I’m at the page where I’m about to add my logo and the following message pops up: Content Encoding Error
An error occurred during a connection to (my web address).
Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem. I already sent in a request for your help and I was directed this comment page but I can’t find your response. Please help. Thank you.
Hey Sandra, I’m not sure why you are seeing this error. But I’m sure that the A2 Support team will know more as they are in charge of that part. Don’t worry. Those little errors tend to pop up from time to time and it is related to hosting technology. I’ve seen it 100s of times on all sorts of different hosts. You’ll get used to them eventually. It’s just what happens from time to time. Let me know how it goes. By the way, I’ve visited your site and it works fine.
Cheers,
Ivan
Dear Ivan,
I have completed About Me, Privacy Policy, Afilliate Disclosure and publised them but in Home page these 3 items are not displayed at right the top right corner or anywhere else.
I checked at Pages and noticed the boxes were not checked. I checked them and click Apply but the all boxes remained unchecked. Did I missed a step somewhere?
Slight improvement on my logo but still small, even after changing to 350X70.
Hey Khairudin, I don’t know what boxes you are talking about. Nonetheless, I’m sure the reason why your pages are not showing in your main menu is that you have actually created a blog and home page and a menu that shows only those two pages. To fix this, go to WordPress–>Appearance–>Menus. In there, select the menu your home and blog page is in and add all other pages to it!
By the way, I like you logo a lot and I think it is big enough 🙂
Thank you, Ivan,
I have gone through all courses you have sent and will be starting to implement your course soon. I have several questions that I hope you can answer. This is all new to me so please bear with me.
Is it beneficial to attain an EIN with business name prior to beginning?
Do you or the company you have chosen for preparing the Website get a percentage or commission of products from the website that you help us build?
I assume that we will get a 1099 for taxes at end of year?
You show how to build the first part of the Website with 1 product, do you help us add more products to the same website for the same niche as shown on the sample used “The Coffee Maven”?
What else will we need to learn, and will there be a fee?
You mentioned to stay away from health and fitness, but this is something I am passionate about. Would you still recommend me to stay away from this niche?
Of course, I am very interested and am thankful for showing me all this information thus far. And hope to continue learning from you.
Sincerely,
Rube
Hey Rube,
You’re welcome.
You don’t need EIN or a business entity to start with affiliate marketing. You can start as a private person and then if things go very well for you, you can start a company.
The hosting company pays me a commission for each website we build through my program.
I’m in the EU and I have actually registered my own company so I have a team who takes care of taxes for me. But yes, even as a private person (affiliate) you will have to submit your affiliate earnings in your tax application every year by following your country’s tax laws.
I show you how to write a single review during the course. In the last lesson (14) I instruct you to rinse and repeat the process. This means that you should keep on writing reviews just like “The Coffee Maven” using the same blueprint learned during the course.
You will learn how to choose your niche, build your affiliate site, find low-competition and high-volume products, write your own reviews, join the Amazon affiliate program, submit your site to Google Search Console, and more. As for the fees, you need $50 a year for website hosting and domain name and $49 a month for a keyword research tool.
Unfortunately, yes. I would recommend staying away from this niche. The reason is that Google is STRICT when it comes to allowing just about anyone to influence people in health niches and financial niches. Only medical and financial professionals are allowed. Hobbyists like you and I will have a tough time succeeding in these niches. It is not impossible, but it is super hard.
I hope this helps 🙂
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi I went through all the process of lesson 4, everything seemed fine. After creating my logo, went back on my domain and it says An error occurred during a connection. This occurred even before I attempted to upload my logo. What could be the problem?
Hey Sandra, that is actually beyond me. It has to do something with hosting. I have experienced the same issue 100 times before and with different hosting providers. Every time it would happen, I would send an email to support with a screenshot included and 10 minutes later, the connection would restore. That said, just contact the A2 support team and do the same.
Sorry for the inconvenience. These little tech issues can happen from time to time, but they can’t damage your business.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan, I have created my logo using Canva, but it looks very small in the centre, unlike your example big & at the top left corner. The recommended size is 70 X 70 pixel but in Canva is 512 X 512 pixel. I am using a free version therefore I could not change the pixel during download.
Hey Khairudin,
First, congratulations on taking action and building your website! I like to logo and the website name VERY MUCH. Great job.
Secondly, I recommend a logo size of 350px x 70px, which is the reason why my logo in the video is bigger. This size is recommended by WordPress actually as well. Don’t mind what Canva recommends. You can start a new design using the correct measurements this time (350px x 70px).
Lastly, I see that you are using a different theme, which is why your logo is centred and not on the left side like in my videos. I use and recommend the GeneratePress theme in my training. It’s one of the best free themes available today. If you use this theme, your logo will be on the left side. Not only that, but you are making sure that your site runs smoothly in the future. But if you would like to keep a current theme, you can probably change the position of your logo in the theme customizer. Go to WordPressDashboard–>Appearance–>Customize and from there, find where you can change the position of your logo. Each theme is different so I can’t actually give you advice as to where these features are because I don’t use that theme.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you need a hand with anything or have more questions!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
Thank you for your reply. I have managed to find out about the SiteStripe Image to put it in to WordPress. And I can not just the size this way. The other problem, I can not do it for the featured pictures, which are the first visible picture from the category on the website. What would you suggest for this? Writing to every company to get permission for an image if the product is between 80 and 300 Dollars is a lot of work. Thank you for your suggestions.
Kind regards, Marlies
Hey Marlies,
The problem with SiteStripe is that you can’t adjust the size of the image. But you can with the AMZImage plugin. I use it and it works great on my Amazon sites. It can also help with the featured image. Once it embeds the image to your site, you can copy it and use it for the creation of your featured image as well.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan
thank you for your suggestion. I bought the AMZ image plugin and struggled for hours to install it. Finally, I discovered that I have to have 3 sales to get the API code, which I need to install this plugin. It does not work for Amazon-beginners, just as info. I could not install it.
So it looks, I have to work with SiteStripe.
Amazon does make not that easy to start.
Hey Marlies, sorry for that. I wasn’t aware of the fact because I already had 3 sales when I bought AMZImage. But don’t worry. You can easily accomplish this by following the instructions from the training to the T. Then, you can switch from SiteStripe to the plugin easily. It will take some extra work, but it will be worth it.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan, thanks for the quick replay. I do not understand – you say, following the instruction to the T. ?
What do you mean with T. ?
Thank you for your kind support!!
Marlies
What I wanted to say is to follow the training (instructions) down to the last letter. Apply all my instructions, do the work you have to do, and the results will follow!
Sorry for the misunderstanding 🙂
Thank you Ivan. I will.
The hardest part for me is to learn the Website, to make it nicer. Maybe in the next training videos, you would give us a few more steps to shape the WordPress website. Thank you again for your support!
Marlies
Hey Marlies, you’re welcome. I will make some advanced web design videos. But for now, I would recommend focusing on creating content that helps users to learn more about products they are interested in buying aka your product reviews. People are first and foremost going to be interested in your reviews and not your web design so it’s critical to master that part before you switch your focus to web design. I hope this makes sense. But I will be creating some videos in the future!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan
Just wanted to say thank you doing this training for us people that have struggled online!!
Thank you for answer ring all our questions as well!!
I have published 27 reviews on computers and laptops the niche i choose.
I was hoping you can check out my website and see what you think?
https://homecomputercentre.com/
Also I’m looking forward to the advanced training when are you planning this?
Regards
Daniel
Hey Daniel, you’re welcome. I actually checked your site already the other day but didn’t want to say anything unless you ask me to give you feedback.
I like the style of your reviews. The outline is also accurate. The images look great. Above all, I can see that you are passionate about PCs through your writing. Great stuff!
The advanced training is still in making. I’m currently testing the method myself. I will start creating videos as soon as I get results with a case study, which should be until the end of this year. Will let you know!
Cheers,
Ivan
I received a notification on WordPress to use Quic.cloud should we use it?
Hey Daniel, I never received the same notification. But you don’t need it. A2 Optimized does good work already.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan
Is it worth earning globally on amazon? Ie Uk, Canada, Germany, italy and France?
We can pick individual countries. Im set up for USA only as per your training
Hey Daniel, it might be. Most of your traffic will be coming from the US, but there will be some visitors from other countries too. So yea, you can set up Amazon OneLink. This linking feature when used on your site redirects your visitors to their local Amazon store when they click on your affiliate links. The only problem here is that Amazon CA might not have the same product in stock as Amazon USA, but that’s the risk you have to take. Read more here to learn how to set up One Link.
I hope this helps.
Ivan
Ivan, thank you so much. You’re the first one that I happened upon that is willing to do this step by step. And free at that. I Appreciate it.
Hey Sandra, I’m glad that you like the course. Welcome to FAMB and best of luck!
Dear Ivan,
first I want to thank you for encouraging me and your students with your emails to continue with reviews. I wish you would have more learning videos about this business.
I can easily copy the images from Amazon, it does allow me. Is this a risk, that they would not accept me to get paid in the end? Why would I go to each product’s website if I can do it at Amazon? Maybe because my product is (unfortunately) not a high ticket? It is so much work, I like to be sure it will not be for anything in the end.
Thank you for your opinion and help.
Kind regards,
Marlies
Hey Marlies,
You’re welcome. I’m happy to help. I will be making more videos this year and will keep you updated.
Don’t copy Amazon images as that is against their policy. You could get your affiliate account suspended. Instead, use the SiteStipe image link or get an AMZImage plugin to grab images from Amazon without violating their affiliate rules.
I don’t understand your second question. Could you be more specific, please?
Cheers,
Ivan
Hello, there: My name is Reginald, and I have been successfully following you until now. I’m trying to create the logo, but when I get to Canva tab, I can’t find it anywhere. The tab is supposed to be at the top of the page, but it is nowhere to be seen. Can you help me? BTW, this is an excellent tutorial, mostly very easy to follow. Thanks very much, in advance.
Reginald.
Hey Reginald, thanks for following my course!
To create your logo with Canva, go to Canva.com and click on the “Create a design” button in the top right corner of the screen. Then, click on the “Custom size” icon from the dropdown menu. Here you need to set the height and width of your logo. Recommended dimensions are 350px (width) by 70px (height). Type the dimensions in two boxes and click on the “Create new design” button to open a Canva editor and start designing your logo.
I hope this works. I just checked the Canva website and all the buttons and links and in place. Make sure that you are using a desktop PC or a laptop.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hello, I used to work in film industry but had to leave from a breakup in marriage.
I ended up with nothing and have since then been able to buy a house but am faced with another breakup with partner, just when I’ve set up!
I will have to start again but know I have it in me to go alone and with success in starting this business up…
Any advice is really appreciated!!
Hey Rob, thanks for sharing your background. My best advice is to clear your focus and aim it toward the training. There are some super valuable lessons in the FAMB training that could help you to start your own successful affiliate marketing business. Concentrate on the lessons, invest time and effort, implement the instructions, and never give up and the results will follow! And if you will be needing any help along the way, just drop me a message.
Cheers,
IVan
Hello Ivan.
Thank you for the lessons.
My question is on the server location. I am based in Nairobi, Kenya. Which server location should I choose, the Netherlands or Singapore?
What is the significance of this location?
Thank you.
Hey Wanjiru, you’re welcome.
Choose the server location based in the location of your future users. If your site is going to be in English then you can expect most of the traffic to come from the US. Therefore, pick either Michigan or Arizona. I hope this answers your question.
Let me know if you need more assistance before you move forward with the training.
Cheers,
Ivan
Thank you Ivan.
You’re welcome, Wanjiru. I’m in your corner in case you have more questions 🙂
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan
Is there a way to copy a post/review layout in stead of having to re-generate everything (headers, text boxes, etc)?
Hey Caroline, you can create a template post with all the headers, text boxes, etc. Don’t publish it. Just save it as a draft. Then, every time you want to do a new review/post, simply copy everything from the drafted template and paste it into your current post.
I hope this helps.
Ivan
Hi Ivan I cannot open the ‘Welcome to Word Press” site as shown in lesson 4. what can I do?
Thank you.
Gusti
Hey Gusti,
Could you please report this to the A2 Hosting support team? They have the know-how on how to fix this issue for you.
Let me know how it goes.
Ivan
Hi Ivan
Thank you so much for a great course! I am busy on lesson 12 and uploading my feature image. When I try and preview it in a new window, I get the following message, (that’s persisted since yesterday) :
“Content Encoding Error”
An error occurred during a connection to your website.
Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.
Hey Caroline,
I am not familiar with this issue but it sounds like a tech issue related to your WordPress. Could you please report this to the A2 Hosting support team? They have the know-how on how to fix this issue for you.
Let me know how it goes.
Ivan
On the A2Hosting webite I cannot find Word Press dashboard.
Hey Augustin, sorry to hear that. Contact A2 Hosting support and they will get right into it. Let me know how it goes!
Cheers,
Ivan
If my location is south then Africa then what s my best server address
hope am clear??
Hey Gavin, you should choose a server address closest to your future visitors. So if your site is going to be in English, you can expect over 50% of traffic to come from the US. Therefore, pick a US location (Michigan or Arizona). I hope this solves it for you!
Cheers,
Ivan
When I got to the last lesson, I tried to click start, but there wasn’t anything on the page anywhere, it was just a white screen. Also I wanted to say THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! I thought I was dreaming when I came across your training videos and seen that, finally, someone walked you through what to do, step-by-step! And it’s absolutely free!! ??? I was blown away by this point lol but I’ve finally got everything set up and ready to work and it’s all thanks to you, so Thank You, you’re appreciated. I look forward to ALL the training you have to offer!!!
Sincerely, Christy Cornett
Hey Christy, you’re welcome. I’m glad to hear that you like the training and congratulations on taking action! I just checked the last lesson and it works in my browser. Maybe you can try watching it in a different browser or clear your current browser’s cache files. That tends to cause issues with videos playing sometimes. Let me know how it works.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan, I was wondering if I should put like a disclaimer somewhere on whether I have actually bought and used a product or not.
Hey David, you can put some sort of disclaimer in your review that says something like:
“Any products that feature in a product review and are recommended for use by (YOUR SITE) have either been thoroughly researched with many people’s opinions aggregated into the overall review or have been physically tested by ourselves. In every case, they are products that have been deemed suitable for use. But this is only our personal and not professional opinion. Under no circumstances and in no event or case will (YOUR SITE) be held liable or accept responsibility for any losses, damage or injury that may occur from the use of any product appearing in a product review and that is recommended by us.”
You can add it to your affiliate disclosure page, or at the beginning or the bottom of every single post you publish on your site.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
I love your course and think it is incredibly practical and helpful. You explain things in a very straight forward way and I really appreciate you. I have used the kefinder to look up specific models in my chosen niche and the number of searches is huge, like 2500 and more but the competition is mostly yellow or sometimes orange. The cheaper models and newer brands are occasionally green with some competition in the top 10 green. The circle is usually yellow and has numbers like 34. Is this niche (robot vacuum cleaners) too inaccessible? should I focus on the cheaper models more or just try to 100 done anyway because the market is so huge even though I probably can’t rank super high? I really want to do this niche. I figure to cover the niche I have to include models that have high competition.
Hey Emily, I understand your dilemma. If you really want to go with this niche, and there are some products in green (still easy to rank for), then start with those low-competition products first. Then, as your site gains some authority, you can start reviewing medium to high-competition products too.
Hi Ivan, so I finished with all the tutorials, thank you very much for the help and explanations you have provided so far. Is there any way you recommend to generate traffic, like with paying ads or showcasing it somewhere specific, besides of what you already explained?
Here my website if you want to check it out, but I am just starting out, so no big expectations please hahahha :
https://allreviews.info/
Thanks again and I can recommend Ivan’s course to anyone who wants to learn about affiliate marketing, he explains it very good!
Thank you Ivan!
Hey Andre, congratulations on completing the training! Your website looks great. I read your reviews too. You did a great job following the instructions from the training. Keep up the good work!
For now, I only recommend Google free traffic. It’s the most efficient way to get free targeted visitors to your website and affiliate links. Paid methods could cost a lot of money right from the start so I’m not going to include them in the training yet.
My advice to you now is to stick to the 90-day Super Affiliate Challenge. This is a sure way to start generating free clicks and sales. Trust me!
Hi Ivan,
Thanks for the free training. It’s great and really easy to use. I’ve decided not to do an amazon review site as my first site, as I know it takes time to build traffic and previously I lost my Amazon affiliate account through no sales within 6 months.
I was wondering if we need to fill in any details for Yoast before publishing a post as it seems not to have been covered.
Many thanks 🙂
Darren
Hey Darren, thanks for the update. I’m pretty sure you could hit the 3 sales in 6 months with this system. You can start a new site, use a new email to apply to Amazon Affiliate again, and do it this time. But anyway, you can fill in details for Yoast, but it is not the main focus because I cover on-page optimization in Lesson 12.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hey Ivan,
What’s the minimum recommended word count as per Google requirement in order to rank a review? (Writing is not my strength, so I need to pay for it. They charge per word and quality work) Thnx
Hey Eli, there is not a minimum word count set in stone, not by Google or anyone else. According to research though, top-ranking content is about 2000 words long. But don’t aim for the word count as that is not the main ranking factor. The main ranking factor is quality content. I know you said writing is your not strength, but I would advise writing researching and writing a few quality reviews on your own first before you start paying others.
Thnx Ivan. I think I need to educate myself on what a “quality writing” is, and how to accomplish that 🙂
Another thing is that I rather search on YouTube to watch videos reviewing items that I’m looking for to purchase. That’s what I have done for years -I’m kind of a visual (movements) and auditory person. Watching videos is faster and easier than reading long articles. I also understand that nowadays that’s what most people prefer: Videos.
However, I also see now that there is potential for long articles for a “reading demographic” (which it seems is a small demographic). Yet, I’m intrigued by the concept of writing reviews posts to rank, vs videos, hence, the reason why I’m here 🙂
I have another question I cannot find a straight answer in Google. I know you teach using WP blog pages to post reviews. By any change, do you know if instead of using WP blog pages, if a webpage will rank the same as WP blog pages regarding posting reviews?
Thnx Ivan
Hey Eli, thanks for reaching out. You can accomplish “quality writing” through a lot of practice. That’s the only way 😊
Regarding your question, sorry, but I don’t understand what you are trying to ask here. Could you rephrase the question or be more specific?
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan, I’m in lesson 7, also I already joined an Amazon Affiliate. Should I at this point purchase KW Finder?
Hi Anna, congratulations on joining Amazon Affiliate. Yes, you can purchase KW Finder and start refining products in your niche as per instructions from Lesson 7. Do let me know if you need any help!
Cheers,
Ivan
Thank you, Ivan. One more question; is KW Finder Mangools good enough for me for now, as a beginner, or should I go with Premium?
Hey Anna, if the 10-day free trial was enough for you to do the research for your site, then you don’t need Premium. But if you plan to continuously research for high volume and low competition keywords in your niche, then you should invest in Premium.
Cheers,
Ivan
Thanks, Ivan.
No problem, Anna. Let me know if you need more help!
I purchased Mongools Premium 🙂
Woo hoo! Congratulations on taking action, Anna. Do let me know if you need any help!
Hi Ivan,
I finished lesson 6 already, but I cam across something I think you should include into your guide, which is the part where you have to connect your bank account details for people who do not have a USA Bank Account or their local country is not listed as a option to choose ( My Case )!
I do not have any problems, but thought that this would help probably a lot of people 🙂
Cheers
André
Hey Andre, thanks for pointing that out! I’ll see what I can do.
Cheers,
Ivan
I don’t have the word All on my Amazon page
Hey Robert, there should be an icon with three horizontal lines instead. Click on it to open the departments on Amazon and follow the rest of the instructions from Lesson 2.
Cheers,

How do I get back to lessons once I leave the site??
Hey Cynthia, simpy type in the name of the site in Google and log into the course. Or bookmark the course home page in your browser and access it instantly from there. I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Ivan
I have a question: I’d like to know how I can make honest reviews of the product if I haven’t used it myself? I’m confused. What am I missing?
Hey Reginald, the detailed answer to your question can be found in Lessons 7, 8 and 9.
In a nutshell, a great review consists of a few ingredients. But the main ingredient is thorough research. Most product reviews online are the result of detailed product research. And those best reviews, the ones that hold top positions in google have done the best research and users find them the most helpful.
Of course, sometimes, it is beneficial to purchase the product that you are going to review but it is not mandatory. You can still write an honest review if you honestly do the product research and share your honest opinion in your review.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
IVan
Help I keep getting messages like my credit card is not supported and need a Gstin number spoke to chat they say required from India . I am USA
Hey Lisa, where are you trying to enter your credit card details? A2 hosting? If so, I don’t remember having to put in my Gstin number and I’m not in the USA. Try again with support. I’m sure they will help you get pass this. Let me know how it went!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
Thank you for the lessons. I’m really excited about affiliate marketing.
My question is, how do I write reviews? How do I get information on the features of the products I pick?
– Wanjiru
Hey Wanjiru, you’re welcome! I’m glad to hear that you are enjoying the process.
You will get detailed information on that in Lessons 7, 8 and 9. In a nutshell, there are a few places where you can find product info such as Amazon, the manufacturer’s website, other people’s reviews, YouTube videos, etc.
Then, once you are done with research, you simply describe and review the product in your own words by saying the things already known about the product such as features, or dimensions and then, you share your own unique perspective on the product as well, pros and cons too.
Your review doesn’t have to be super-long, but it has to be informative, insightful and helpful to your readers, and you’ll take care of that part by doing the product research thoroughly. Once again, Lessons 7, 8 and 9 contain all the info!
I hope this makes sense. Let me know if you have more questions.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
Should you wait until a page/post is entirely complete before publishing it on WordPress and indexing it with Yoast/Google Search Console? Would it be bad to publish and index an incomplete page or post that you are in the process of working on and completing?
Thanks,
Ryan
Hey Ryan, it would help if you waited with publishing until the post is completed. You don’t have to wait for it to be perfect, however. Once you are happy with the work, just hit publish and head over to the next one. You can publish a post and come back to it whenever you want to update it maybe with some fresh content, new images, etc.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Ivan
Ivan,
A quick question for you. I have decided on 2 products to start and not sure which one to go with 1st. They are: E-Bikes or Golf clubs? Maybe a stupid question but, I’m wondering your opinion.
Thank you,
Sam
Hey Sam, both niches are a good choice. The golf clubs category might have more products in total on Amazon so it could lead to more reviews, rankings, traffic and sales. E-Bikes are quite expensive, which is good, but there aren’t too many models available on Amazon as far as I can see.
I just want to mention that you should go with one niche per website. So if you are going to pick Golf clubs, for example, you should review only Golf clubs on that site. Additionally, if you want to scale in the later stage of your website’s development, you can and should scale only with other golf-related products such as balls, shoes, etc. But don’t mix two unrelated niches on your site. One nice per site.
I hope that makes sense. Let me know your thoughts!
Ivan
Thank you so much for your advice!
No problem. I’m in your corner in case you have more questions. And best of luck with your affiliate site!
Ivan,
I just finished Lesson 13 of your training videos(going to start them again tomorrow and do all the work). I just wanted to see what the training was all about. I must say that your training videos are by far the best presentations I have ever seen and I can’t wait to see them again!
With much appreciation,
Sam
Hey Sam, thanks so much for your feedback. I’m happy to hear that you like the training and I wish you the best of luck! I’m in your corner in case you need any help with it.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan
I use different host so not sure what will be a difference between the two. I use 123 Reg
I do have a website and my own domain but I very keen to start affiliate business.
I know my niche I want to do so kind of prepared to get started.
However I was wondered being English is not my native language, I can use AI to help me writing reviews? So it will make more sense for people.
Thank you for your help and effort to explain this for us completely free. Appreciate it. Great help to get started.
Regards
Gyorgy (George)
Hey George, the difference is that the A2 host is regarded as one of the most secure, and fastest hosting services in the industry. They have affordable prices too. Those are the reasons why I recommend A2 hosting to you in this training. I am a customer as well, and I’m happy with the service.
I’m glad to hear that you already know your niche and have a site too. You can a new one here if your existing site doesn’t fit this course.
Yes. You can use AI to help you with your English. My two top recommendations are Gramarly and Jasper. Check them out. There are tons of tutorials on YouTube on how to leverage both tools to improve your English writing skills.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions. I’m in your corner!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hello Ivan,
I am already an affiliate for amazon and also a high ticket affiliate marketer.. I do have a question though. Is the A2 hosting a website or a domain program? Because I already have a domain and I already have a wordpress account. Would it just be better to start a new wordpress? and like I mentioned above if the A2 hosting is another domain software or is it an actual website.?
Hey Scott, A2 is a hosting company and they also sell domains. It’s an all-in-one deal. I would recommend starting a new site specifically tailored for this training.
Let me know if you have more questions!
I do I ended up using my own domain for the site today because I already had one but for somereason when I go to the sign into wordpress thing I have followed the directions up to the point of logging in as admin.. The admin isn’t working though as I get a warning that says it couldn’t load the site quick enough…. Am I missing something?
Hey Scott, I’m not sure why you can’t log in and it’s out of my reach. I would recommend you contact A2 support and see what they can do in this case as it is a problem on their side of things. Let me know how it went!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi,
I am Norah. Thanks for this free affiliate marketing training program. Time and money freedom is my goal. I want to know how this program will assist me in becoming a successful affiliate marketer.
Hey Norah, welcome to the training program! I like your goals and I’m sure that you can and will achieve them if you are ready to invest yourself into the course.
The program is designed to help you first and foremost, understand what affiliate marketing is and how it works. Then, you will be learning how to choose your niche and find lucrative products, build your affiliate website from scratch, attract targeted visitors to your website, and earn income through Amazon affiliate marketing.
To start learning, I recommend watching Lesson 1.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan. I am Kareem from South Africa. I am an online retail seller selling as a third party seller on takealot marketplace in South Africa with over 70 different products in different category and department on the takealot website. I would like to learn about affiliate marketing and how to leverage this for my online business… I shall be looking forward to your positive response. Thank you.
Hey Kareem, thanks for introducing yourself. It’s nice to meet you!
You can definitely leverage my training here to earn online promoting products from Takealot dot com. Just follow the step-by-step instructions and instead of joining and promoting products from Amazon, you join the Takealot affiliate program if they have one, of course. It’s as simple as that.
I hope this answers your questions. Let me know if you need help getting started.
PS. I just edited this comment because I saw that Takealot doesn’t have an affiliate program. But no worries! You can leverage Amazon. com even from South Africa!
Hi Ivan,
Thank you for your response. You’re absolutely right. Takealot does not have an affiliate programme for now. Besides, thanks for letting me know that I can leverage on amazon affiliate programme from South Africa. ☺
Hey Kareem, you’re welcome!
I got a feeling that Takealot is a good online retailer, but Amazon is by far the best and their affiliate program is still more than fair. All you need is a niche on Amazon, a website, and someone to show you how to leverage their affiliate program to earn. That’s exactly what I’m teaching here so I hope you will like it 🙂
As you can see, I’m actively helping the students so feel free to contact me if you need help or have any questions about affiliate marketing.
Thank you 😊. I would be glad to learn from your wealth of knowledge on affiliate marketing. I am currently on lesson 3 from your FAMB training.
Sounds like a plan! Keep on taking action and feel free to reach out with your questions 👍
Hi Ivan thanks for replying back.
I have a niche in mind but still a bit confused with a few things. Is there a way to get in direct contact with you via email.
Kind regards
Hey Ash, send me an email using the address from the top of this page.
Hello Ivan where do I start from I need ASAP
Hey Sharon, you can start by clicking on the Training tab in the main menu. You’ll find the list of lessons there. Select Lesson 1 and you’re ready to go.
Hi Ivan started looking into your training, it looks great. appreciate the time you took and hard work.
i wanted to ask if you have experience with dropshipping as i would like to create a brand around an item i am passionate about
Hey Ash, thanks for taking action with my training. The answer is no, not really. Dropshipping is a good idea but I like affiliate marketing much better!
Can I do this from South Africa
Hey Naidoo, yes, you can do this from South Africa as well. Let me know if you need a hand getting started!
Hi Ivan thanks for feedback.
How much will the Website and other start up process be .Need to budget .thank you once again.
Hey Naidoo, you’re welcome! As for the startup costs, you will need $35 for one year of hosting and about $15 to register your domain for a year. That’s about $50 for the first year and that’s all there is. I hope this answers your questions 🙂
great stuff .thanks for the feedback.
You’re welcome! I’m in your corner in case you have more questions 🙂
Hey Ivan thank you for your informative lessons..I am 84 years old and it looks like after many trial and error I manage to get a affiliate marketing business going. I am on session 3 A2 Hosting.I selected a new domain name which is available but A2 Hosting does not register the domain name as you show on your demo page. How can I go about? Many thanks.
Hey Gusti, you’re welcome. I just went through the entire process of setting up hosting and registering a domain with A2 and it’s all exactly the same as in my lessons here except that they have lowered the prices for domains from $17 a year to $11 for the first year.
So, I’m not sure what you are talking about, sorry. What part of the process is different? Let me know, please.
Hey Ivan,
Grace’s is here, hope all is well.All along, I have been following the lessons, questioning, comments being transpired. Thanks, you are doing, great for us, I call it God’s blessings for you .
My problem have been with the niche to come forward to. I am partnering this with my husband, and our passion is on counselling, marriage /relationship, can this works for us? I need your advice. Also other sides are, pets, beverage(tea/coffee) ,electronics. Needing more advice on this, before I am done with the web.site.
Counting on your usual cooperation..
Thank you, .
Hey Grace, I hope you guys are doing well.
Since my course here is geared toward promoting Amazon affiliate marketing (promoting physical products), you will have a hard time fit relationships niche into Amazon. However, you can leverage the same blueprint to promote digital products in this niche from other marketplaces like ClickBank for example.
On the other hand, if you would like to promote physical products just like I show in my training, you should better choose a niche like pers, beverages, electronics, etc.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have more help 🙂
Hi again Ivan, so sorry…I feel like all i’ve been doing is asking questions lol. Your information is very valuable to me. I have 2 questions for you….
1. the advanced training hyperlink seemed to work last week, but now the link no longer works…has that been removed?
2. is there a you tube/website page I can access to show me how to further design my website (highlighting, colors, fonts etc). I know the basics now from your videos, I was wondering if maybe there was a tool that would show me more advanced design/layout for the posts?
Hey Molly, no problem.
1. Yes, I removed the existing link. Advanced training is not ready yet.
2. I personally like to stick to the basics but if you want to learn more you can check out sites like WPbeginner and their YouTube channel.
Thanks Ivan, just finished first lesson and I really appreciate you sharing this information and can’t wait to go threw more lessons
Hey Paul, I’m glad to hear that you’re making good progress! Keep on taking action and do let me know if you need a hand with anything.
Thanks Mate
You’re welcome, Paul. Did you watch the second lesson about finding your niche? It’s a big one so let me know if you need help with it!
Going to watch today but, I already have a few different categories of my Niche to explore
No problem, Paul. Glad to hear that you already have a couple of ideas!
Hi Ivan, I doing my 2nd review on a product I really like to promote but I didn’t find any reviews on it. It’s called: 1 Secret To A Great Short Game. Must golfer struggle with this part of the game. Is it worth doing a review on it?
Hey Joe, that could be a great opportunity for you to be the first to review this product and promote it if it’s really that good 🙂
Thanks for your feedback. It’s always good advice.
No problem, Joe. Glad to help!
Hie Ivan thank you for the tutorial, it’s really detailed and easy to understand. l saw your other tutorial on youtube where you were reviewing basketball hoops. l would like to know why the change in hosting companies and prices?
Hey Irvin, you’re welcome! I don’t remember posting any basketball hoops reviews on YouTube 🙂
I would like to answer your question about hosting and prices, but I didn’t change anything in that area so I’m not quite sure what you want to ask…
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan,
Thank you so much for your content. I really like the content and the way your video looks. One question: what app/software/tool are you using to record your videos?
Thank you!
Hey Cory, you’re welcome. I’m glad to hear you like everything. I’m using EaseUS RecExperts video recording and editing software.
Let me know if you need help with your website!
Cheers,
Ivan
Ivan,
1st, Thank you for doing this!! You Rock!! My question, how can you change the Logo once created? I decided to change mine.
Thank you!
Marla
Hey Marla, you’re welcome 🙂
Simply, create a new logo in Canva as per instructions from Lesson 4 and upload it to your site. That’s basically it.
Let me know how it goes…
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan, it’s me again.I’m a soon graduating nursing student from Kenya,Africa.I don’t have a PayPal account nor a visa,,how do I pay for the hosting fee and how do I get paid?
Hey Fehn, best of luck with your study! You can’t pay for the hosting without a bank card or PayPal (still need a bank card to open PayPal). Also, you need bank account to get paid from Amazon and other affiliate programs.
Let me know if you have more questions!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan
I am a begginer,a student actually
Question one,can I use my phone because right now I don’t have a laptop?
Question 2.I am in Afrika,Kenya how do I create a link to suitably attract customers?
Hey Fehn, you can use your phone to watch the training. However, that’s as far as you can go without a laptop. To implement the instructions, you need a laptop. In answer to your second question, you will learn how to choose niches and products, generate your affiliate links, create a website, and use everything to attract visitors/customers to your site in this training 🙂
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi again Ivan! Question for you…when i’m linking a product from Amazon…how do I know which product/seller to link? Currently for one of my products there are about 8 sellers, all with different pricing/shipping dates, etc. How do I choose which one to link?
Hey Molly, the best way is to check out seller reviews. Pick the one with the most positive reviews.
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan, sorry for some reason i couldn’t see your previous reply
Hey Molly, did you get all the answers? Maybe I have missed a question…
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan, I didhttps://www.teeupforfun.com/?p=563 my first review. Can you take a look at it and let me know what you think.
https://www.teeupforfun.com/?p=563&preview=true
Hey Joe, I would love to! But you will first have to publish the review and then send me the correct URL. You just sent me a URL of a preview in WordPress which is visible only to the admin (you) and not to others. Not until you publish the content.
Ivan Ok I”ll go ahead and publish it and send you the url.
I’ve seen your email! I’m getting right into it 🙂
Hi…I am in canada, can I set up affilate account on amazon.com and amazon.ca with same reviews and product on my website.
Hey Dawn, as I said to Marlies earlier…
You should join Amazon based on the location of your users. So if most of your visitors are going to be coming from the US (if your site is going to be in English that you can expect over 70% of traffic from the US), then, you should join Amazon.com and send your users to products on Amazon’s website.
On the other hand, if you want, you can use OneLink universal Amazon links in your reviews. In this case, you put a normal .com link in your review and once someone from Canada, for example, clicks on it, they will be redirected to Amazon CA. Here is a step-by-step (read the first two answers).
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan…Thank you so much for the videos you posted, they are very well done and you
explain everything with such ease and integrity…I will carry on with your recomendations ,
looking forward to finally building my site., ….Thanks for sending me the amazon link….
You’re welcome, Dawn. Thanks for your nice comment. Keep on moving forward and do let us know if you need a hand with anything! 🙂
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan, one more big question I can’t figure out! I live in South Africa, but I am Swiss, and I am registered with Amazon.com. I don’t want to be limited to the market in South Africa. Rather Europe or US. Is that enough to be registered at Amazon.com? Or must I do for every country separate listing? In other words, for every country a separate review with a link to my account? Thank you for your kind support!
Marlies
Hey Marlies, you should join Amazon based on the location of your users. So if most of your visitors are going to be coming from the US (if your site is going to be in English that you can expect over 70% of traffic from the US), then, you should join Amazon.com and send your users to products on Amazon’s website.
On the other hand, if you want, you can use OneLink universal Amazon links in your reviews. In this case, you put a normal .com link in your review and once someone from South Africa, for example, clicks on it, they will be redirected to Amazon SA. Here is a step-by-step (read the first two answers).
Cheers,
Ivan
Hey Ivan I have watched all of your videos and honestly I appreciate the fact you spent your time explaining everything and going in a slow manner pace
but in the past I have invested money in diffrent bussniss ideas and not seeing any result who’s to say that if I started to invest in this type of module I’ll fail and not see any result can you show me definitive proof that it could work
Hey Imran, thanks for watching my videos! To be honest, the only person who is responsible for your own results is you. Therefore, if you do the work and invest in this program, the results will follow. Likewise, if you just dive into this system, there will be no results. The blueprint laid out in this course works! Just work on it and be patient. My website and my blog section is the proof that it works!
Hi Ivan,
Do you recommend using a business bank account with Amazon Associates, or would just a typical bank savings/checking account that is SEPERATE from your personal funds suffice?
Also, can you use any email address when signing up for Amazon Associates, such as a Gmail, or does it need to be a professional business email address?
Thank you in advance, you have been so helpful.
Hey Ryan, I hope you are doing well.
You can use any bank account with Amazon Associates. If you have a business account and would like to funnel your earnings into your business account, you can use it without any problems. If not, a personal account is enough.
You can use any email address (Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, etc.) when signing up for Amazon Associates.
I hope this helps. Let me know if there is anything else I could help you with!
Cheers,
Ivan
Hi Ivan
How do I find a niche that doesn’t have a lot of competion that should start earning me money sooner rather than later?
Thanks
Hey Paul, the fact is, all niches have lots of competition and it’s become nearly impossible to find a niche that has little to no competition unless is a brand new thing going on.
You should follow the instructions from Lesson 2 to learn how to narrow your niche to a specific category of products or a micro-niche. These micro-niches usually have the lowest number of competing sites and if you follow the rest of the training, you will discover that there aren’t too many review sites in these niches and that is your chance!
Ivan
Many thanks Ivan
No problem, Paul.
Thanks Ivan and really enjoyed watching your first video on affiliate marketing. Your enthusiasm has certainly got my attention now and am looking forward to learning more. Am I able to set everything up via a smart phone or would I need a laptop?
Hey Paul, you’re welcome, and thanks for joining my training! I’m glad to hear that you like everything so far 🙂
I recommend using a laptop or a PC to set everything up. You can watch the lessons on a smartphone but implementing is going to be hard so the laptop is an ideal tool for building your online business.
Once again, welcome to the course and do let me know if you need help!
Thanks for your reply and shall purchase a laptop this week.
Do you have an email I can contact you on?
How soon once my affiliate website is complete can I expect earning money?
Thanks again and have a great day.
You can contact me by sending an email to ivan@freeaffiliatemarketingbusiness.com
Once your website is complete, the real work starts! It may take a few months after that to start earning. That’s why I have included a 90-day challenge as the last lesson to help you get results as fast as possible.
Building your affiliate site is an ongoing process, so don’t chase the money. Rather, focus on applying the instructions from this training, and the money will follow you!
A few months from now, you might find yourself in a situation where you earn a few commissions a month on regular basis. After 12 months, you could be earning consistent commissions every day.
Affiliate marketing is a real business so my advice is to treat it like that. The GOAL is to create helpful content consistently and the results will follow.
Ivan
Ivan, Where do I get the new version of the training?
Hey Joe, here is the link to the new lessons: https://freeaffiliatemarketingbusiness.com/training-modules/ You can also find the new training by clicking on the Training in the main menu.
Hello.
I have a question. You didn’t mention anything about tags? Are they not important or I missed something? 🙂
Hey Diana, I didn’t mention anything about tags on purpose 🙂
Here is the deal… Each post can contain multiple tags and visitors can click on a tag to find similar posts that have that same tag. Unlike WordPress categories, tags are completely optional. That is, you’re free to add WordPress tags to your post, but you can also publish a post without tags.
The choice is yours!
Hi Ivan.
Was going through your course, but when I returned today and the videos have changed. Is there any chance of me getting access to the course I was following? I was going through module 6.
Thank You.
Hey Less,
I sent an email yesterday where I talked about this update. I removed old videos and replaced them with a newer version of the training. Here is the link to old videos sorted by modules: https://freeaffiliatemarketingbusiness.com/course-old-version/
Sorry for the inconvenience 🙂
Hi Ivan, thank you so much for your training! I am in Launchyou.com since October 22, and It looks like I found an answer from you to all my questions and thoughts. When I click on your link to launch the website, it says – oops this website can not be found. I do like to support your tools. What must I do now? Could it be, because I am in Arica (IP-Address)?
Thank you for your help,
Marlies
Hey Marlies, you’re welcome, and thanks for your support! I’m looking forward to helping you start your own affiliate business online.
The reason why you saw that page was my own fault. I used an invalid link 🙂 It’s not because you’re in Africa. A2 works anywhere in the world.
Once again, thanks for your support! I’m in your corner if you need any help with getting started.
Thank you Ivan, it was finally working through your website. I’m so happy I found your training, so much easier to understand for a newbie like me!
Hey Marlies,
I’m happy to hear that and glad to meet you! Feel free to reach out if you need help with getting started.
Thank you so much for this awesome training!
I appreciate your hard work!😑💗😋
You’re welcome, Susie! Happy to hear that and best of luck with your website 🙂
Hi Ivan
Every thing seemed to be going well with me till towards the end of module 3 lesson 3 that have stalled. When I click on pages to start customising it is opening but not showing the default blank page on my site. Also the wordpress admin generated password is not not working.
Hey Nico, when I go to visit your site, everything looks good. I can see that you don’t have any content yet, but you will get there. I have responded to your question in private via email so we can continue resolving this issue from there.
Hi Ivan, I emailed you on my Niche Idea. Before I move forward with A2 I want to get your feedback. Did you see my emails? I sent a few. Is that the best way to get a hold of you?
Hey Mike, I saw your email. Sorry for the late response, yesterday was my birthday 🙂
Let me know if you need more help before moving forward with the training.
The training won’t start
Hey James, the video embeds sometimes won’t play if you are on your phone. The best tool for this training is a laptop or a PC.
PLEASE PLEASE help me!! I DON’T want to give up, I was determined that this was going to work. But I don’t want to give up. A2hosting is working (again) to get my site back up. It keeps disappearing. Once they get it back up, can you help me with the google console verification? I’ve been stuck there for 2 days. Any help would be appreciated.
Hey Michelle, thanks for getting in touch. No need to give up. I saw your website and it’s working now. I will be happy to help you with GSC verification. However, I don’t see your website in my A2 hosting panel. When did you purchase your domain and hosting? And did you do it through this training or someplace else?
Be honest how much is this going to cost me
Hey Jody, I hope you’re doing well.
The course is free. But you need to invest in tools. There are two options:
Option 1 – You can do everything yourself, write your own content, etc and only spend money on the cost of hosting your website: ~$10/month
Option 2 – You can scale faster with email marketing tools, SEO tools, content creation tools, backlink service, etc. ~$100 – $600/month
I hope this helps!
Cheers,
Ivan
Thanks very much Coach Ivan for such great lessons.
How can i creat a website and can one website be affiliated to two or more product companies?
You’re welcome, Jonas! I show how to create an affiliate website throughout this entire course. I start with Amazon Affiliate, but you can affiliate with eBay, ClickBank, ShareASale, and many other companies out there! I recommend you start with Lesson 1 and simply keep on taking action to learn how it all works and to set up your own affiliate website. And if you will need any help, just reach out to me!
Cheers,
Ivan
