Tissa Godavitarne - Scam? Hoax? Or Internet Marketing Genius?

First of all, and this is surely common to any affiliate marketing program, success is not possible without hard work (like in any other business for that matter), so in order to prevail using this method you have to squeeze in your daily routine some time dedicated to it; when i say time i mean time actually doing some of the things we are going to talk about here, not just reading tutorials and tips but actually applying the knowledge (i made this same mistake often, got overwhelmed with information and just couldn't know where to start), so just take your time, plan a route to follow, and stick to it.

As you notice in a while is all about the Acme People Search engine provided by Tissa Godavitarne, that i spoke about in a previous hub, since this is a specific niche we should have specific instruction on how to perform well and successfully using this program.
How to Promote

As you probably have read about before, there are lots of ways to generate traffic, but since you are starting, i would focus on the free ones, because that way you can fine tune your article writing and keyword analysis before making the decision to invest actual money in ads. So keeping that in mind pick up some keywords related with people search or the tissa program itself, and write articles about it, you can use blogs, twitts, hubpages, squidoo lenses , and any other free and easy online article website.

If you do need a hand finding relevant keyword, have a look at my hub, it is a great help in that subject.
How to Search Keywords - The Proper Way

IMHO you really don't need anything more that that, but please bear in mind that keywords are of CRUCIAL importance, when you do find one that seems to be right for you, search about it on google and yahoo, check if it has too much competition and enough daily traffic, if so, do it, if not look for another keyword, forget about short tail keywords, the money/work ratio is best on the long tail ones (even if they do seem pretty far out). This is the hard task, if you do need a hand in this drop me a line, i want to succeed as much as you do, and we all need help.

What to Promote

We have a lot of income sources with the tissa program, but they are all connected, so you really don't need to promote any of them separately, instead focus on promoting the people seach engine and promote the Affiliate Program because with every search there will be several opportunities to make money from different sources, and with every affiliate you get under you gain a lot of fees while giving the oportunity of others to sucess with your program.
There are now seven sources of income in this program:

*
ClickBank
*
HD Publishing
*
MyLife
*
Adsense
*
GDI
*
Hostgator
*
Referral Fees
* GVO

The first four are directly related to the search engine, after each search the user will have to buy adicional products to find specific info about the targeted person, the last four are related to the referal program, GDI is specially important since it is the only one that provides residual income, both GDI and Hostgator provide webspace providers needed for the program, lastly Tissa him self pays up to 30$ per referal you get in the program under you. It is really a Win-Win situation for all.
Where can i get some training or useful in-depth articles?

Apart from using the Tissa Help Forum (that has a lot of info regarding all matters related to this), i advise having a read at the e-book training supplied by Brett Basinski, as i learned a lot from it, and info is valuable to any other Affiliate Marketing Methods, you just have to enter your email, and every 2 days you get another pdf you should read and apply (thus evading an overflow of information, harmful at early stages).

So now that you know How To Succeed Using Tissa Godavitarne Acme People Search Engine, get to work and good luck.
