This is a summary of my work to build traffic for several web sites during the fall of 2010. For the past few weeks I have setup the BiiG Network (biig.com) and reviewed my work on several other sites. I feel that growth has stagnated for about a year, which is not a surprise. And in my case growth has a direct relationship with traffic!
Skies the Limit
Over the years I have explored various ways to build traffic: The most effective are…
Links to the blog and reciprocating using anchor test.
I’ll solve the above by running the Affiliate Program.
The next type of links are created by articles, press releases and blog posts.
Again, my publishing documents will link back using anchor text to the various sites.
Lastly, all of these activities will be enhanced by Affiliates who directly link to various parts of the network.
National Roll Out of the BiiG Network, Products & Services
Before I run with the enterprise, it’s best to take some small steps and find key leaders to work with in the major US markets. That is what I have embarked on today. My goal is to find 2 or 3 leaders in the TOP 100 US cities.
I think this step is essential before I contact my list of mailing list owners that want to promote the network. Before I have to deal with international affiliates, multiple languages and 24/7 questions, it will be much better to get started with a slower pace working with affiliates in the US.

Rich Sage Passive Affiliates: Participate in the BiiG Network Launch in a Passive Manner
This summer I have challenged myself to $100,000 in sales. In order to set pricing and understand additional merchant needs, I have taken it upon myself to generate $100k in sales. Please see the end of this post about the PASSIVE AFFILIATE accounts that I am selling to a few select buyers to meet my Summer2010 sales goals.
There are 3 methods by which I’ll accomplish this task:
By signing up 100 local merchants to use Savepedia and search engine optimize those listings.
I will also seek 5 passive income Affiliates who will be setup with a custom website that generates traffic and leads to sales and network income growth.
Lastly, since I seek about 1 or 2 Affiliates from the TOP 200 USA residential markets, I anticipate another 400 sales for the membership I am creating to train local online business leaders.
For all the leaders and passive income Affiliates, there is one underlying urgency: Using the network to make money mostly online and in their local area.
Here is what I’ll be doing to aide that local efforts:
Passive Income
Generating Income with the BiiG Network, Continued…
Over the past 15 years I’ve setup several network marketing programs. The business opportunities included long-distance communications products to wealth building. However, with each company I was unable to create my own exclusive products that I had 100% control over.
Now I have managed to create my own products and utilize several dozen high-value domain names to make it possible to launch a global network marketing company.
The first set of products are created by the company, and will help the network get started. In just a few months other merchants and their affiliate programs get added. In the end, I am working to create the below income model that has 3 stages –the first is basic and requires nothing more than registration, one sale and a replicated website.
The next stage requires a bit of learning to work with the online properties, exclusive access to the learning area and the use of a network tools and services account.
Lastly, the affiliate can invest a bit more time and become a BiiG Network Pro Affiliate which allows an exclusive area and earnings from other merchant affiliate programs.
BiiG Network Income Blueprint
When all is done, the Affiliate should be able to generate an income that is in the TOP 5% of all income in the USA, and several other industrialized countries. For the rest of the world, the income can be as high as the TOP 1% in those countries.

What will Google do next? This weekend I relived my childhood by playing a Packman game at Google.com. That was a surprise, when they created a mini, working Packman layout for the 30th anniversary.
Packman Game
Well, I only spent about 5 minutes reliving what ate up most of the tip money I got from my paper route earnings.
Before I knew it, it was GAME OVER! I wonder what the total cost of “lost productivity” was worldwide from this diversion? Anyway, I guess I am spending more time writing about it than playing the darn game…

Can an Affiliate Account be Worth $100k or more per Year?
Often with an opportunity timing is everything. To build success there are perhaps two distinct paths that can be taken. The first is to build a success network the old fashioned way by following a path to traffic building, etc., etc. The other involves timing –get started at the right time with a company and do a small part to promote the network marketing affiliate account. The latter is a matter of risk & return. The longer you wait, the lower the perceived risk, but the more work it may take to achieve the same results.
With that in mind, I have offered 31 Affiliate Accounts and the promotional skills (traffic) to build them.
I am giving away some of the accounts to those who buy my search engine optimization products.
The left over accounts I will just give away to people with resources or network marketing experts who want to build their own million-dollar affiliate accounts.

How Commissions are Earned by Affiliates of the BiiG Network:
After careful consideration, I have decided to utilize a network marketing format to find the approximately 25,000 people around the world that want to work with me to build a network of online utilities and services sales affiliates that benefit small business.
First some ground rules. In a network marketing program a product must be sold and affiliates must be allowed to join for free (or with a small registration fee). In the BiiG Network, annual registration is just $19.95 and gives access to the basic information and business building tools.
I’ve created the below diagram to show readers a small sample of the process that is taking place.
What is unique about my setup is that Merchants who start their own affiliate program can decide many aspects of how they are going to pay commissions to affiliates. Merchants can elect to pay direct commissions — Affiliates make a sales and earn 100% of the commissions allocated to that sale.
Affiliates can also earn multi-level commissions of up to 7 levels. Again, as determined by the Merchant.
Commissions are only earned when a product, services, membership or subscription is sold and/or renewed.
Below is a visual summary of the “Commission Earning” process:
BiiG Network -- Earning Commissions
What makes this all possible is the traffic that is generated by the Affiliate to the replicated affiliate site at biig.com or the Affiliates own website.
Building an Advertising & Marketing Tools and Services Network
I finally got around to doing what I planned for many years. The plan is to build a network of Affiliates around the world to market advertising and marketing tools as well as third party memberships and subscriptions.
When I first went about trying to signup around 20,000 Affiliates, I ended up wasting a lot of time and money doing what amounted to nothing. Finding 20,000 Affiliates (who actually do some work) to run an ad network will take years. I didn’t think the problem was such a challenge, until I got started.
The first problem I had to overcome was “Name Recognition” — I had used a domain name that was too long and not that easy to spell the first time around. Now I am using “BiiG.COM” –a name that is just too easy to remember. The entire network marketing operation and portal will be run from biig.com. I also have biig.net, which will be used to create a lead generation system for all the affiliates to use.
BiiG Affiliate Network
On numerous occasions I’ve tried to do this various ways, but failed. Here are some of the reasons that I failed:
Most Affiliates who may join a program or even buy an e-book, manual or join a how-to forum don’t really do anything.
The more complicated the products, and the more that an Affiliate has to do to fulfill a products “delivery”, the less likely that anything will be done. Getting going again, I’ve made it as simple as type into a form and then “cut & paste” the output.
Lastly, Affiliates want to see a quick income –something has to start accumulating in their commission reporting area before they even start to do something. Promises of payment down the line don’t work, nor do they motivate anyone to do anything.

I needed a break. I got it. During the break I thought a lot about what has worked and what improvements were needed and most importantly what my focus needed to be. So, a lot of thinking. Yes, even a Sage needs to “refresh” from time to time.
So, I’ll not make a big deal out of this. Just wanted “a post” and then I will begin the process of momentum, traffic growth, sharing ideas, testing –all that good stuff that makes an online business work.
Just to get started — Here is a list of 50 of the best You Tube videos as ranked by Time Magazine. I thought it was a good one, apart from a few obnoxious videos most of them are really good. Here goes:
Ultimate Affiliate Program -Learning from the Past, Moving Forward — Part One.
Several times I have tried to get a global affiliate program launched for the products and services that are part of the network of sites that I maintain. That success has eluded me until now. At this point, I have managed to eliminate everything that could go wrong –software woes, hardware problems, financing and even my own pitfalls.
Now I am ready once again. Below is what I have setup. It’s pretty simple and explained on just a page.
