Another New Site
a... DAMN " NewYorkButcherShoppe.com is not taken? I also have "TheNewYorkButcherShoppe.com"
and NewYorkButcherShop.com" they all point to the above. I just think they are great .com names and they have some really fantastic affiliates programs to populate them with. NYBS has an exotic meats page, a sauces page and kitchen utencils and equipment page etc. Of course its been indexed and I tested some PPC and we get a decent click through.
Go look and suggest. I want to improve this site, I really think it has good potential. Thanks

My Smoke Test
ESmokeEverywhere (post above) is really generating great traffic. I did some test campaigns and they really grabbed a lot of clicks and a better than average conversion.
I am going to admit now and to everyone that I commited the cardnial sin of affiliate advertising. I share this humbling moment in the hope that you will take heed.
ALWAYS CHECK YOUR LINK FUNCTIONS BEFORE YOU POST OR HIT SEND!
Yep, I sent out a campaign with bad links. Not all the links were bad but I had to change the landing page real fast. A woman from Mesa, Arizona emailed me and told me about the problem, whatta a Gal.
We are sending her a comp starter kit from Luci Brand.
Let this be a lesson learned. I've heard these stories and I did'nt follow very sage advice
Check Your Links!
Note and Hint. Notice the post date on the "eSmokeeverywhere" post. If you want to keep a post on the top "post date" it in advance and your next posts will appear under it.

What is a Mini-Site?
I don't have any Mini Sites but after reading this article here I'm giving serious thought to the idea. This can be a great strategy for affiliate products that are worthy of a good single page landing. A mini website is a site which is devoted to selling one and only one product. Either software, an eBook, golf clubs or maybe just putters. I know you have probably seen these sites they are everywhere all over the internet. It's generally one big sales page (or two) and it's a excellent chance to presell your product or your affiliate product.
Mini Sites usually consist of a one page sales letter and a thank you page.
The sales letter is packed full of the information to tell your visitor and potential customer about all the benefits of the product or service you are offering them. This page is usually quite long as it is your one opportunity to sell your product. The sales page will have all the reasons your customer needs the product you are selling. It will also tell what the product does or how it is used with examples to emphasize the fact that your customer can't do without it. Sometimes there will be some testimonials from satisfied customers and some bonuses for a prompt purchase. At the end of the page, the customer will have the opportunity to purchase the product with a command for them to order now!
You should look at other similiarly configured pages to get the jist of how it is done. Actually go look at several different sites and look at those pages from a sellers point of view, you may have seen a thousand of them before but you have'nt looked at them from a sellers perspective. Some are very short and to the point and some, while just a page or two, are the longest pages in the history of the written word.
Once they have made their purchase, they are sent to the thank you page which has ( in the case of an eBook say) the download link for their purchase. It is important to add the download link for the purchased product in a very prominent place near the top of the page. No one wants to search for the item they have already paid for.
This thank you page should be considered a second sales page.
The great thing about this thank-you page is that you know the people reading it will buy from you. They already have! It has been proven that once a person buys something from you, they are more likely to buy more products from you if you keep offering a good product at a good price. So while you have them there, you will offer another product that compliments the already purchased product. You can string a series of related mini sites together and get several sales from the same person all at once. Don't miss this opportunity to get another sale. If you don't ask you don't get. I'm just sayin'.
Your thank you page is a good place for you to offer a free gift or a unannounced bonus. All the visitor has to do to get your freebie is fill out a form with their name and email address. Almost everyone will take you up on the free offer and you have just collected their information to send them even more offers.
The thank-you page is also a great place to add your Google AdSense or similar ads. After the customer has downloaded their purchased product, filled out the form for your free offer and looked at, and hopefully bought, the other offers you have available, they are still on your thank you page. Place your Google AdSense ads at the bottom of this page. The next logical choice for them is to click an Ad or close the window. Most people will click on an ad.
So you have your sale, their name and email address for future sales, possibly a second or third sale and a little extra cash from your content or affiliate Ads.
The beauty of this whole operation is you don't have to be present to make sales or ship goods. It is all done electronically. Once you get traffic to your mini site, it will do all the work for you. It will sell the product, collect the money, 'ship' the item, make your second sales pitch, and collect the customer information. You make 100% profit from the sale.
You check your email or Affiliate accounts every once in a while and find you have made some money!
Optimizing these mini sites for the search engines is a breeze. You only have one page to optimize. What could be easier?
PLUS... Nothing to join if your selling your product. If you don't have a product or service sign up for affiliate programs and set up the affiliate links and add your own pitch or review of the product.
So what do you need to get started?
You will need a domain name and hosting. You have to have somewhere to place these sites. This is a very minimal start up cost for your new business. You can get started for under $15 if shop for the best prices.
You can buy one domain name and host hundreds of mini sites using sub-domains. Make sure you hosting allows unlimited sub-domains.
Once you have your domain name and hosting set up, you can start uploading your mini sites. Set one up, optimize it, get another one and repeat. You can get several mini sites set up in a day and start seeing a profit real fast.

Where do you get these mini websites?
You can create your own ebooks or software and sell them or you can buy resell rights products. When you buy a product that offers resell rights, you now have the right to sell this product and keep all the profits. Just like if you made the product yourself.
Once you have your product, you only have to write the sales page and the thank you page and you are in business.
The beauty in these Mini WebSites is that you can set them up, optimize them and then just let them work for you. It's like having a whole staff of sales people working for your 24 hours a day and you don't even have to pay them.
