I’ve tried my best to avoid talking about Market Leverage over the past month or so. It seems like every big time blogger has been promoting the crap out of them. Market Leverage hit the scene by giving out dozens of prizes on blogs through contests. I was skeptical at first… I always am, but eventually I took the bait and signed up with them.

I actually signed up through Tyler Cruz, determined to win one of the prizes he was giving out. I was eying that $200 AMEX card, but alas, it wasn’t meant to be. I started very strong in the first week or so of the contest, but then everyone caught up and eventually passed me on the top 4 rankings. Some people are very good affiliate marketers and have earned way more then I can. I guess the contest is still going, but at this point, I can’t win a prize. I’m too far behind.

Since joining, I’ve actually been doing quite well. I’ve always been able to make some money here and there from Azoogle, but since the switch to Market Leverage, I’ve notice a nice increase. Check out my stats from June 11 through June 30.

I was able to rack in $301.05 in a very short amount of time. And you know what’s sweet about that? The $301.05 you see is all profit. I don’t spend any money on PPC like Adwords or Yahoo Search. Everything I make from affiliate marketing is from SEO and driving traffic to my websites organically. So you’ll see people in Tyler’s contest who have $500 or $900+, but you have no idea how much money it took them to make that $900. Maybe the dude spent $800 on adwords? We don’t know. So the contest is actually flawed. It’s based on revenue instead of net income.

I’m going to continue to use Market Leverage until I start to see a drop off in earnings, then I may go back to Azoogle. But so far, ML has been great and my affiliate manager has been awesome. If you haven’t signed up with them yet, then I suggest you do. I just signed up my buddy from Political Blog yesterday and he’s already converted 4 leads for cold hard cash from natural traffic. No paid PPC. Here’s my signup link if you want it.
