Let’s see where you’re at as we approach the end <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Affiliate <strong>Masters</strong> Course...<br />

You have a wonderful Theme-Based Content Site, full <strong>of</strong><br />

high-value content that OVER delivers to your HUMAN readers<br />

and that ranks highly and fairly with your Search Engine<br />

friends. And that means...<br />

You have traffic coming INTO your site (from ALL your<br />

traffic-building efforts) and traffic going OUT <strong>of</strong> your site<br />

(links to your income-generating sites -- merchant-partners,<br />

your own store, or your own sales site).<br />

It has cost you time and money to generate your INCOMING<br />

traffic. Your OUTGOING traffic generates INCOME for you.<br />

You can measure both EXPENSES and INCOME. And, as explained<br />

way back in Affiliate <strong>Masters</strong> 101, INCOME minus EXPENSES<br />

equals PROFITS... duh!<br />

If we stopped here, your site would be a black box. A "black<br />

box" is a concept used in physics. You can measure what<br />

goes INTO the black box, and you can measure what comes OUT<br />

OF the black box... but you don’t know what the heck is<br />

happening INSIDE <strong>of</strong> that black box. In other words, you<br />

don’t know *WHY* things happen.<br />

And for your long-term success, that’s critical. Why’<br />

Because if you know more about the nature <strong>of</strong> your INCOMING<br />

and OUTGOING traffic, you can maximize your returns for<br />

every dollar and minute that you spend!<br />

Yes, that *IS* kind <strong>of</strong> important... "critical," even. :-)<br />

And what *DO* you need to know’...<br />

A) Traffic<br />

B) Links in<br />

C) LInks out.<br />
