The One Tool All Affiliates MUST Own – past and present and future links, one-step additions and more
Jul 7th, 2008 | By Barbara | Category: 2010 Economy, Affiliate Marketing, Make Money, Make Things Simple, Niche Marketing, Profit Tools Reviews
Morning!
Over the weekend, I wrote about The one CRITICAL mistake many affiliate marketers make . This particular mistake can cost you your hard-earned affiliate commissions…but is easily rectified by simply cloaking your links in a smart fashion.
Now, I’m a geek and I’m a techie and, wow, back when I was your age, I didn’t have no newfangled WYSIWYG editor in which to compose MY articles, no siree! Instead….
I used a command line interface and straight text the way the heavens MEANT for a woman to access the Internet! Why, back then, my family was so poor we didn’t even have a complete alphabet! No way, nope nope nope, I had to use the number "1" for a capital "i" and the number "0" for a capital "o" (wreaked havoc on my spelling let me tell you!)
And don’t get me started with what I had to do to power up the computer! Ever wonder why hampster wheels got so popular back decades ago? Hmmmm? And in the winter! My gosh, it was so cold back then the horse didn’t start up!
But I digress. 
As I was saying….I’m used to rolling my own code. I never used store-bought ("store-bought" – now that’s funny when put into the terms of the Internet) affiliate linkers because I always hack what I need.
Until last week.
Last week, I was alerted to the Ninja Affiliate Wordpress plugin tool! And let me tell you, my life hasn’t been the same since.
What I adore about this tool is you can hyperlink words from PREVIOUS and FUTURE posts too…without having to manually edit them in your Admin window.
So! Let’s say that back in April, you wrote a cool post about, oh, gee, lessee….NASCAR. Wait a sec, let’s go one further….you wrote about making money with a NASCAR blog!
Okay I’ll confess – I did that myself. But do visit the above article and scroll down to Step 6. You’ll see:
Click on that link, you’ll see it goes to:
http://www.barbaraling.com/foundForYou/nascar
That’s my Ninja-cloaked link that goes to my eBay affiliate search for "NASCAR".
Now. Stay with me here, this is important:
I wrote that article 2+ months ago….
I added that link THIS MORNING….
And I didn’t TOUCH the original post.
Can you see how powerful this is?
But that’s only the beginnings of the goodies the MBP Ninja Affiliate Tool has for you.
The best thing about it is…
It’s Idjut Proof!
It’s so easy to use that even my Aunt Bertha (if I had one) could start being profitable with her blog today! All you have to do is:
Step 1.) Determine your destination affiliate link. (ie, a clickbank link like http://richhermit.lingstar.hop.clickbank.net or your e-junkie affiliate ID or your …. you get the idea. (need an eBay affiliate link? Grab one HERE; grab your Amazon.com affiliate link THERE).
Step 2.) Name your link for your own reference purposes.
Step 3.) Paste in the affiliate link destination and set for what keywords (ie, "nascar affiliate income") you want the link turned ON.
Save the information and voila – your words, your past posts, your future posts, etc. will be automatically hyperlinked. And you even set how often they are – ie, hyperlink AT THE MOST 3 instances per page etc.
Now if that’s not the ultimate of "set it and forget it"….I don’t know what is.
This is a paid plugin, and it’s more than worth the cost. I am completely sold on it, and it now ranks number one in my recommendations for affiliate linking ease and Wordpress blogs.
Do yourself a favor and click on the ninja below to check out….you’ll be glad you did.
Enjoy,
Barbara Ling

Now this is sweet! I’m on his list, but don’t recall ever getting an email about this…unless it’s “old”.
I’m currently using Adtrackz Gold, but I think if I use that strictly for its PPC features and this for my blogs, I may have the ultimate affiliate capabilities!
Btw Barbara, I haven’t been around in a while, but holy cow! what happened to the theme?
LOL I like it
One other thing…I REALLY appreciate your captcha

Welcome back Dennis!
I found out about it from my mentor, Bill Vick of http://www.xtremerecruiting.tv . It’s good stuff, isn’t it?
And the theme – it was a classic case of the Inspiration Muuse bowling me over. I just had to try it.
So far, it seems to working peachy!
Enjoy,

The page says $97 “for a few days only”. Do you know how long that’s been up?
I’ve only met one where “short time only” was actually true, but I like him and don’t wanna prejudge.
I love the new theme, much better colorization and less distracting

Howdy,
Whenever I see things like that, I think, marketing!
So I’d assume “a few days” for awhile.

Thought so. Sorry to say, that’s not marketing. At least not ethical marketing in my book…..but that’s a WHOLE ‘nother discussion *sigh*

I meant to add – I was actually unsubscribed from you. I don’t know how or why but it has happened with other blog subscriptions also.
Spontaneous unsubscription? (Similar to combustion) LOL
I have re-subscribed
Dennis Edell’s last blog post..Captcha Issue: Why You WILL Lose My Comment – Possibly My Subscription
Glad you’re resubscribed!
Wonder how that happened.
I’m finding out with Camp Ling and book writing and other thingees like that….my time for reading other blogs has decreased a HUUUUGE amount. Must get better at that.
Btw, Sydney Johnston (remember her? Auction Genius?) is back online! You can follow her at http://www.twitter.com/sydney4045 .

I have no idea who that is, but if you have a URL for her (other then twitter), I’ll gladly check her out.

Sydney Johnston is one of the Internet greats from several years ago. She wrote Make Your Net Auction Sell (from the Site Build It series) and is very savvy about marketing online.
Prior site is

She’s definitely worth following.

The Ninja product has all but changed, totally changed, the way I link to affiate programs. I’ve tried other programs such as Kontera, etc. and Ninja is the simplest to set up and a breeze to modify or update. I am even using the links on others posts from my primary and seconday websites.
I’m a fan of Ninja as well as Barbara Ling aka Owlberts friend.
