What does this mean from the perspective of an affiliate marketer? If we can re-direct traffic from youtube’s hottest video to our site then we may no longer be having headaches as to where to get traffic.

My wife is an avid fan of American Idol and she watch the show relentless. Aside from that she spend countless hours reviewing the opinions from fans about the performance of each contestant.

In today’s show there are about 38 million votes that came in. And this just the flock from the United States. I wonder if they have statistics for international viewers. What’s my point? 38 million viewers and they are also potential customers. Selling only a dollar to this followers will give you 38 million dollars. Well, this is only a rough estimate.

Itunes is selling 0.99 per download, you multiply that by the number of viewers then you have your gross sales. Impressive.

Perhaps this might be the computation done by the “ebook gurus” low price + sell it to the masses and there you have it “millionaire”.

Well, but one need to solve how are we going to reach the “million flock”.

Hmmm. Now this is one strategy to consider.

more power reaching our “million flock”.

by the way bye Carly -

You might already heard on the news, radio and most likely on the Internet, almost every activist on the planet are calling the heed to being green.
Being green is becoming earth friendly.  This means using things including gadgets, appliances, even hair sprays that are eco friendly.  More and more companies are already trying to make products that are earth riendly.  Solar panels for your home, rechargeable solar iPod, chargers for your Notebook computers, etc.  The treehugger.com reports that the solar power industry is growing amazingly.  Excerpt of the news:

“The salmon-pink Financial Times reports today that the solar equipment industry is on a path to grow amazingly fast: From 20 billion dollars last year to 90 billion dollars in 2010. “Profit growth is expected to accelerate even faster, as costs are contained, pushing margins up to nearly 60 percent.” These high profits hopefully will mean more capital investments into production facilities and R&D (which will help further decrease costs), and more companies entering that sector.”

This means that the demand for renewable sources of energy is increasing not
only for the businesses but also for home use.

Well, the bad news is that there is still not yet many affiliates program to join in this booming industry but some of the Internet Marketers are already positioning their domains to this industry.
