Are You Shovelling Cash Down Googles Profit Funnel?
By ShowMeTheMoney | October 4, 2007
I read recently that the average length of time someone tries to make money from internet marketing is less than 12 months. Having said that there does seem to be an inexhaustible supply of newbies throwing themselves in at the deep end and drowning. Just look at the number of Google Adwords ads for any given Clickbank product. Two years ago it was relatively easy to find a niche and advertise a product as a Clickbank affiliate on Adwords. Youd probably have a few other people advertising the same or similar products. These days youll be one of about two hundred! Dont get me wrong, competition is good, just not at this volume. Its great for the product vendors and Google, not so great for the advertisers shovelling cash down Googles profit funnel! I guess in the long run its always better to be selling the picks and shovels than actually doing the mining..
We are well into the Autumn season now and if you subscribe to any marketing mailing lists youll have seen the corresponding surge in new product launches! Expect the deluge to grow until just before xmas! I havent seen anything too interesting yet, its pretty much run of the mill stuff and nothing from any of the big guns of the internet marketing world yet.
On a different note a nice resource Ive come across recently is wikinvest. Its another good place to pick up ideas about up and coming trends and companies on the internet.
