Want short-term affiliate monies? Do this:
1). Find affiliates products that offer coupon/promo codes, discounts, or savings.
2). Use Google keyword tool to figure out the exact match volume of
[product name] coupon
[product name] coupon codes
[product name] coupon deals
[product name] coupon code
[product name] promo code
[product name] savings
etc...
3). After you've found some exact match keywords with 200+ monthly searches, create an account with Animoto. Get a paid account if possible.
4). Buy at least 5 aged YouTube accounts if possible. If not, create multiple accounts using proxies.
5). Using Animoto, create 30-60 second commercials advertising coupon discounts/savings for your desired product. Make it look professional, use decent copy, etc.. Create at least 3-5 videos.
6). Upload each commercial onto YouTube. Make sure every video has its own YouTube account. Make the title the keyword you're targeting. For instance, if you found an exact match keyword that was "[product name] discounts", make the title "Best [Product Name] Discounts." For the other videos, switch the title up a little bit. So if you had 5 different videos all targeting the same keyword, their titles would look something like,
"Best [Product Name] Discounts"
"[Product Name] Discounts 2013"
"Top [Product Name] Discounts this year!"
"Exclusive [Product Name] Discounts"
etc...
7). After all 5 videos are uploaded onto 5 separate (hopefully aged) youtube accounts, make sure the video descriptions are unique and at least 300 words.
8). Add watermarks or text boxes in your videos that tell viewers to access the discounts by clicking a link in the description. Use separate bit.ly links in each video descriptions that point to the affiliate offer.
9). For maximum effect, create a professional looking landing page displaying offers. Point your links at landing page.
10). Wait at least a week before throwing backlinks at the videos. For maximum effect, use Fiver gigs to build link-wheels at videos, embeds, etc... It's been a while since I ranked YouTube videos, so you should do your own research before creating backlinks to the videos.
If you're smart about this, use proxies, update your youtube SEO knowledge, and use proper keyword research, this method gets you stupid easy affiliate money. You can rank multiple videos for the same keyword on page 1 of the SERPS within a month or two.
ALSO, make sure you upload your videos a few days apart from each other.
Anyway, hope this gives you ideas. YouTube is stupid easy to exploit.
P.S. If you really want to make good money on the internet, don't get too focused on "GET-RICH-QUICK" methods. They never last. Instead, you should focus on learning REAL marketing and creating authority sites. I'd be making way more money had I lost the whole "GET-RICH-QUICK" mentality a year or two ago.. Just a few thoughts...
