If you're interested in earning an additional income stream online, whether you're brand new to affiliate programs or if you're already an experienced online marketer, then it's critical that you read through this entire page.

	You run your own website, blog, forum, newsletter or e-zine and your visitors, clients or subscribers would be interested in learning how to burn fat, build muscle and improve their health and energy levels naturally and without drugs or supplements.
	You're an experienced online affiliate and would like to create an additional income stream in the Health & Fitness niche using reputable products with high conversions, serious commission rates and professional marketing tools.
	You're brand new to Internet marketing and are looking to get started by promoting solid Clickbank products with proven track-records and rapid one-on-one affiliate support.
	You're simply an average web surfer who is active in online communities (both fitness and non-fitness related) such as message boards, chat rooms or blogs, and would like to make some extra cash on the side by doing what you already love to do.

You do fit into one of those groups, don't you? I thought so.

It's a damn good thing you made it here then, because if you're serious about making money online through affiliate programs, you're in the right place.

Health & Fitness Is THE Most
Profitable Online Market There Is!

Everyone wants to be healthy, attractive and feel good about themselves, and there's a ton of easy cash to be made if you know what you're doing. If a smooth, 6-figure online income that literally runs on autopilot excites you as much as it excites me, then you've got to get involved in this incredibly powerful industry. Here are just a few reasons why...

	It's A Global Market... Your potential customer base spans literally every country on the map. We make sales in all corners of the world, from the USA to Germany to India to Japan.
	It's In Very High Demand... Everyone wants to feel attractive, powerful and sexy, and programs that place their emphasis on weight loss and muscle building are very easy to sell.
	It's Extremely Stable... These aren't fad products that are going to magically fade away after a couple years. The popularity of fitness willl never go away, and this means your affiliate empire will continue to earn you cash for as long as you want it to.

"Sounds Great, But How Exactly Do I
Make Money Through This Affiliate Program?"

The whole process is extremely simple. The word "affiliate" is just a fancy way to say, "you refer visitors to our websites, and when a visitor makes a purchase, we'll cut you a percentage of the profit.

All you need to do is setup a free account with Clickbank.com (this is the company that actually processes our orders). Once you sign up, you'll be given special referral links coded with your own personal affiliate nickname. Simply drive visitors to our websites using these links, and whenever a purchase is made, a handsome 75% commission will be automatically deposited into your Clickbank account.

Every 2 weeks, Clickbank will send a paycheck directly to your doorstep for whatever amount you've earned in that period... That's all there is to it!

We take care of everything else. You have no responsibility to the customer at all; Your ONLY job is to drive traffic to our websites and then watch the commissions roll in. If you're a beginner and need help setting up your account and also need more details on exactly how the entire process works, then stay tuned, because all of that will be covered in detail soon.

The best part is... Anyone is eligible to become an affiliate! Whether you're a big-time 6-figure online marketer or that online marketer's Grandma, YOU can make serious profits from this affiliate program with a little bit of effort.

"What Kind Of Pay Check Can
I Expect To Earn Each Month?"

I don't know... you tell me!

The amount of money that you earn is completely up to you. It all depends on how much effort you're willing to put forth and how aggressively you promote our products. If you're expecting to slap together a quick website and earn a fortune overnight, you'll most likely be in for a disappointment.

On the other hand, if you're willing to put in some time and effort to do things the right way (and we'll teach you exactly what the "right way" is once you sign up) then you can most definitely earn an additional income stream in the thousands or even tens of thousands each month.

As a very quick example: if you were to sell just ONE basic package of our muscle building program each day (which is very easily possible), that would equate to $1580.10 per month and $18,961.20 per year!

Can you imagine what your earnings would be like if you sold 3 per day? 5? 10?


Okay, let me now go over the specific details of this affiliate program by showing you which products you can promote and exactly how to setup your initial campaigns...



PRODUCTS THAT YOU CAN PROMOTE

There are 3 main products that you can promote. A huge amount of time was put into each one, so you can be sure that you’re promoting the highest quality products available in the fitness niche. If you need a review copy to verify this for yourself I’ll be happy to provide them.

If you’re truly serious about creating a long-lasting income stream in the thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars monthly, you should be creating a separate campaign for each one.

This is because each product is unique, targets a different demographic and has its own commission structure. Even more importantly, they are all h eavily cross-promoted on the backend. That means that if a customer purchases one of these products and then purchases another one later on, you’ll receive all the commissions.

You’ll get 75% of the profit from every sale.  Here’s a quick recap of the 3 products you can promote…


Product #1: The Real Deal Body Transformation System (Fat Loss)
A full-blown fat burning success kit that teaches people how to burn fat and tone their bodies without supplements, fad diets or fancy training equipment.



Sales Page: www.HowToBurnFat.com

(replace CBNICKNAME with your clickbank ID)



Product #2: The Muscle Gain Truth No-Fail System  (Muscle Building)
A comprehensive muscle-building program that teaches people how to maximize their muscle size and strength gains quickly and naturally.



Sales Page: www.MuscleGainTruth.com

Affiliate Link: http://www.nalewanyjfitness.com/go.php?offer=CBNICKNAME&pid=1  
(replace CBNICKNAME with your clickbank ID)



Product #3: The Muscle Building & Fat Loss Inner Circle  (Overall Fitness)
A members-only bodybuilding and fat loss community that keeps subscribers up to date on all of the most cutting edge fitness strategies available.



Sales Page: www.FitnessInnerCircle.com

Affiliate Link: http://www.nalewanyjfitness.com/go.php?offer=CBNICKNAME&pid=3
(replace CBNICKNAME with your clickbank ID)

IMPORTANT AFFILIATE LINK INFORMATION

What are these non-standard affiliate links?

You’ll notice that the affiliate links I’ve provided above are different from the standard clickbank hoplinks. The reason for this is because I am using a special piece of software that allows me to combine all of my products under a single clickbank account while still allowing you to direct your traffic to any sales page you want. (Standard hoplinks only let you send traffic to a single page)

By combining the products under 1 account, you’ll earn commissions on any products purchased on the backend. For example, if someone buys my muscle building program and then also purchases my fat loss program later on (which happens quite frequently), you’ll earn both commissions. (If they were under 2 accounts you would only earn the first commission)

Yes, the links are longer and a bit messier looking than normal hoplinks, but since I recommend using domain forwarding for all of your promotions (which I’ll talk about shortly), no one will end up seeing those affiliate links anyway.


How To Send Affiliate Traffic To ANY Page

A huge benefit of these links is the flexibility they provide. Using these links you can actually send visitors to ANY page on my website (or any website for that matter) and still tag them with your affiliate ID.

Here’s how…

http://nalewanyjfitness.com/go.php?offer=CBNICKNAME&u=URL

Just replace “CBNICKNAME” with your clickbank ID, and then replace “URL” with the page you want to direct them to. So if your clickbank ID was “fitnessbuff123”, and you wanted to send someone directly to my howtoburnfat.com order page, here’s how you’d do it:

http://nalewanyjfitness.com/go.php?offer=fitnessbuff123&u=http://howtoburnfat.com/order.html


You can even send visitors to a page on a website other than my own and still tag them with your affiliate ID. For example, let’s say you wanted to send a visitor to my YouTube channel to view my video coaching lessons. You’d use the same link structure as above but just change the URL:

http://nalewanyjfitness.com/go.php?offer=fitnessbuff123&u=http://youtube.com/NalewanyjFitness  

The visitor is now sent to my youtube page and is tagged with your affiliate ID at the same time.

Again, I know these are long links, but you can easily shorten them with domain forwarding.


How To Use A Clickbank Tracking ID

If you have multiple different streams of traffic, you can use clickbank’s tracking ID feature with these affiliate links as well. For example, you might have a stream of traffic from PPC, article marketing and posting youtube videos and want to track each one individually.

All you have to do is tag the tracking ID onto the end of the affiliate link as you do with a normal hoplink:
http://www.nalewanyjfitness.com/go.php?offer=CBNICKNAME&pid=1?tid=XXXX

You can see the “?tid=XXXX” tagged onto the end where “XXXX” is the tracking ID.
The tracking ID can be up to 24 characters long and can only contain letters or numbers.

So let’s say your clickbank name was “johnsmith” and you wanted to track your results for PPC, article marketing and youtube videos. You could use these 3 links for each:

http://www.nalewanyjfitness.com/go.php?offer=johnsmith&pid=1?tid=PPC
http://www.nalewanyjfitness.com/go.php?offer=johnsmith &pid=1?tid=ARTICLEM
http://www.nalewanyjfitness.com/go.php?offer=johnsmith &pid=1?tid=YOUTUBE

Now when you check the analytics section in your clickbank account, you’ll be able to view the clicks/conversions for each individual stream of traffic.

SETTING UP YOUR CAMPAIGNS: 3 MAIN OPTIONS

You’ll basically have the choice between 3 major methods of driving traffic to my sales pages:

1) Basic Domain Forwarding: Simply register a domain name and have it forward to your affiliate link. Requires virtually 0 technical knowledge and can be setup in just minutes.

2) Domain Forwarding To A Blog: Register a domain name and have it forward to your blog. Requires slightly more technical knowledge (but still very easy).

3) Affiliate Website: Create your own fat loss/muscle building website and fill it with valuable content for your visitors (I’ve already created some very nice authority site templates that you can use, along with virtually all of the site content you’ll need). Requires more time and knowledge but has more potential for creating a permanent, long-lasting business.

You also have the option of setting up a basic intermediate landing page where you feature a product review or article of some kind.


Let me first make it clear that ANY of these methods will allow you to pull in a serious long-term income from this affiliate program. The method that you choose will depend on your individual experience level and the amount of time/effort you want to devote to this.

I’ll now go into more detail on each of the methods and you can then decide which one you want to go with…

OPTION #1: BASIC DOMAIN FORWARDING

If you don’t have the knowledge or experience to setup your own website, or if you’d simply prefer to stick to a simpler/quicker method to get up and running with, domain forwarding is your best choice.

Domain forwarding is simple…

You register your own fitness-related domain name. You then setup your account to have your domain name “forward” to your affiliate link. For example, you register www.MuscleBuildingMadeEasy.com  and then forward it to http://www.nalewanyjfitness.com/go.php?offer=CBNICKNAME&pid=2

Now anytime someone visits your site at www.MuscleBuildingMadeEasy.com, they’ll be forwarded to my sales page and be tagged with your affiliate ID.

Voila! You now have your very own professional-looking URL that you can use in all of your marketing campaigns. It’s incredibly simple but incredibly effective.

Let me give you step-by-step instructions now for setting up your domains if you’ve decided to go with this method:

1) Visit www.GoDaddy.com. This is where you’ll register your domain names. You can type into the box on the main page to find domain names that are available.

2) You’re going to want to ideally buy 3 different domain names. This will give you your own domain name for my fat loss program, muscle building program, fitness inner circle and my additional six-pack ab sales page.

They cost about 10 bucks each. Suck it up and realize that you can earn that money back on your very first referred sale. If you’re afraid to make this small investment to get started then you probably aren’t in the right frame of mind to begin with.

Just to reassure you… If you purchase your 3 domain names, follow the advice in this guide and for some reason aren’t able to make back your investment in the first week or two, just email me and I’ll buy them off of you for whatever you paid. Deal? Okay…

3) Spend some time trying to come up with a good domain name for each product. Don’t obsess over this as it’s not the most critical thing in the world, but remember that you’ll be using these domain names for a long time to come. Some quick tips:

The Real Deal Fat Loss System: Keep this URL broad so that it appeals to a wide range of visitors. For example, if you used a domain that had to do with getting “ripped” or “shredded” you’d cut out most of the female demographic. Stick to a broad URL that has to do with burning fat, weight loss, fat loss etc.

The MGT No-Fail System: Any basic URL that has to do with building muscle, muscle gain, bodybuilding will be fine. Remember that this is an almost totally male centered market and consists primarily of people who want to get “buff”, impress women, get more confidence etc.

The M.F Inner Circle: This is one is a bit trickier since it’s both a muscle building and fat loss website, and combines both a community aspect along with specific fitness information. Any URL that focuses on “fitness”, body transformation or that combines both muscle building/fat loss into one phrase is fine.

4) Once you’ve purchased your domain names they will all show up in your GoDaddy account. Now all you need to do is forward each domain to your affiliate link for each product. Here’s how to do this…

- Go to “Account Manager” (white link at the very top of the page)
- Click the green tab that says “Domains”
- Click “My Domains” from the dropdown menu. Your list of 4 domains will appear.
- Click the first domain you want to forward.
- Click the blue link that says “Domain is not forwarded”
- Check the box that says “Enable forwarding”
- Enter your affiliate link for that particular product into the box below
- Check the button that says “301 moved permanently”
- Click the tab that says “Masking” and check the box that says “Enable masking”
- Click OK (the changes could take up to an hour or more to process)

You’re all set! Now anytime someone visits your domain they’ll be automatically forwarded through your affiliate link before they land on my sales page. (It takes a few hours for processing so don’t worry if it doesn’t forward right away)

You can now use this domain name for all of your affiliate marketing campaigns for that product. (Make sure to repeat the forwarding process for your other domains as well)

Quick Note: Under no circumstances should you be trying to promote these products by using a standard affiliate link without your own domain name. Using regular affiliate links will drastically limit the number of places you can promote (many sites won’t allow them), and potential customers will be FAR less responsive to them. Always, always, always register your own domain name and forward it to your affiliate link!

OPTION #2: DOMAIN FORWARDING TO A BLOG

This is a great option for those of you who are not advanced enough to create your own full-blown website but would still like to have your own presence on the web to write articles, pre-sell my programs, offer incentives to your visitors etc.

What I’m talking about here is setting up your own blog at www.blogger.com and posting on it regularly. This site is completely free and is very easy to setup and manage, even for those of you with very little technical website knowledge.

You can then register your own domain name using the advice in the previous section, and then use domain forwarding to have it forward to your blog. Your blog would then contain your affiliate links to drive visitors to my sites. Essentially, your blog would act as your very own website.

I’d recommend setting up at least 2 blogs (one for muscle building and one for fat loss).

So for example… Your blog address might be UltimateFatLossGuide.blogspot.com. You could then register the domain www.UltimateFatLossGuide.com and have it forward to UltimateFatLossGuide.blogspot.com. Now you can use www.UltimateFatLossGuide.com for all of your online marketing, and whenever a visitor clicks they would land on your blog, and then click your affiliate link through to my site.

The benefit of using a blog over basic domain forwarding is that:

a) You can pre-sell your visitors by giving product recommendations and by establishing your blog as an authority on fitness-related topics.

b) Your blog will bring you organic search traffic if your posts get listed on the search engine result pages (if done properly)

I would recommend this method over basic domain forwarding IF you are willing to post on your blog regularly and can setup the blog effectively to generate click-thrus to my sales pages.

You can find detailed, step-by-step blogging advice here.



OPTION #3: SETUP AN AFFILIATE WEBSITE
(Premade Website Templates Available!)

(NOTE: This section assumes that you have some experience creating web pages using HTML or a basic web editing program. It also assumes that you know how to register a domain, connect it to your web hosting account and upload files onto the web with an FTP program. If you don’t have experience with this then I’d recommend sticking to the domain forwarding method described in the previous section.)

This method requires more time and effort for the initial setup, but the long-term rewards will be greater for you. By setting up your own website you’ll be creating your very own presence on the web, establishing your website as an authority on the topics of building muscle and burning fat, building up your OWN list of followers, and your potential for a stable, long-lasting income stream will increase.

All of the incoming links that you create will directly benefit you… You’ll be able to capture your own email subscribers and build a mailing list… You’ll be able to benefit from organic traffic by listing your site on the search engines… You’ll be able to effectively “pre-sell” my products to increase your response rates…

If you have the technical know-how and the motivation to go with it, I’d strongly recommend that you go this route.

My suggestion is that you create TWO different websites with their own domain names. The first should be a fat loss website to promote The Real Deal System and the second should be a muscle building website to promote The Muscle Gain Truth System.

It’s not mandatory that you use 2 different websites, but I believe this will be a more effective route. The weight loss crowd and the bodybuilding crowd are 2 different markets and you’ll be able to more effectively target your potential customers by having your websites customized to each specific goal.

The basic approach will be to load your website up with valuable, useful content for your visitors to benefit from, and then throughout all of your content you will promote one of my products to pull in buyers. You’ll also setup a product review page with detailed information about the particular package you’re promoting on that site.

I recommend that on the fat loss site you promote The Real Deal System with passive recommendations to FitnessInnerCircle.com, and then on the muscle building site you promote The Muscle Gain Truth System also with passive recommendations to FitnessInnerCircle.com. (FitnessInnerCircle.com is a lower-priced product and is good to have to try and pull in some sales on those who don’t want to buy one of the higher priced packages.)

The great thing to keep in mind here is that virtually ALL of the content you will be adding to your site has already been made for you, and this cuts your setup time down significantly.

Not only that, but I’ve actually taken the time to put together 2 different fitness authority website templates to make the setup process even easier.

These templates certainly are not mandatory to use, but if you’re planning to setup a brand new website from scratch I would strongly recommend that you at least use them as a reference.

Let me fill you in on more details…

INTRODUCTION WRAPUP

Thanks for reading through this introduction.

I would strongly encourage you to take some time and make sure that you setup your affiliate campaigns properly right from the start.

This is not a get-rich-quick scheme. What I’m trying to do here is provide you with the tools you need to create a serious, long-term online business that generates a sizeable passive income stream for you. How much is that worth to you?

Most people wouldn’t even think twice about spending hours and hours attending classes and doing homework every week all in the hope of earning a fairly low amount of money some day. Yet, if that same person just took the time to really learn and understand the mechanics of online affiliate marketing, they’d make more money in passive income every week than most people could ever hope for.

Take this seriously and put in some time up front to understand what it is that you’re doing. I promise that it will pay off for you if you do.
