Why am I telling you this? Because I have not personally done ANY promotion of this site. All of this traffic is based on referral marketing alone. It just goes to show that when you give people what they desire, great things can happen.
If you've referred people to this blog, then I would like to thank you. If you haven't referred anyone, but you find value in my words, then please just tell a few of your friends.
Before I tell you what's coming next, I need your opinion.
I want to know what motivates you more to promote a special report.
1. Being paid per subscriber that downloads the report?
2. Getting access to a bonus report if you refer 'x' number of people that confirm their subscriptions?
On the one hand, you are paid as an affiliate. On the other hand, you have access to specialized knowledge that's only obtainable when you take an action and refer a few people.
I've run both types of campaigns and will reveal my results soon. Please tell me your opinion in the comments section.

im more interested in the additional bonus than the commission.
I prefer the additional report rather than the commission.
If I have to choose from only these two options, I'd say the additional information is more important - I prefer to apply knowledge to catapult my income rather than relying on the actions of others.
If I could answer that question open-ended, I'd say neither.
What motivates me to promote is value… if the information is crap, I simply don't push it on my subscribers for the sake of a buck. Yeah, I like to make money, but my subscribers deserve the best from me. And they are the ones who will be opening their wallets time and time again, as long as what they get is of real value. All it takes is a single crap product to decrease your credibility!
Thanks for keeping it real.
Warmest regards,
Lisa
