The Day Off Diet currently costs $57.67 which means you earn $31 per referral! If you are already experienced with clickbank you can use the code below to refer visitors to The Day Off Diet.

If you do not already have a Clickbank account you can easily sign up (for free)
Special Note: We use a php code to remove the hop=affiliateID in the url window. This is just so people don't think they are being "sold" anything by you (the affiliate) - this is in hopes of improving conversions and reduce any chance of your affiliate referral being stolen. Your hop is still being attached to your traffic! You can check to make sure by going to the order page and scrolling all the way down to the bottom where it says affiliate =
How Much Money Can You Earn As An Affiliate?
You will make $31 for every "conversion" you send to The Day Off Diet. A "conversion" is internet marketing speak for a sale. It's important to realize you only get paid when you refer a sale! This is why it's so important to send targetted traffic and to "pre-sell" the prospective customer on the value of The Day Off Diet.
An Example:
If you refer just 4 sales per day you would earn over $45,000 a year! It's easy to see how being a Day Off Diet affiliate could literally be your full time job.
If you become a true "super affiliate" and send 10 sales a day you would earn over $113,000 a year!
We will not pretend that it is easy to make 10 sales a day, but it is not impossible either if you work hard (and smart) you can do it. The dieting market is absolutely huge which means there's really very little limit on how much money you can make as a Day Off Diet affiliate. Think about this: Over 6 in 10 Americans is now considered overweight!
Clickbank pays bi-weekly (every two weeks) and they have never missed a payment in my experience with them.
HOW TO PROMOTE THE DAY OFF DIET?
There are many ways to promote The Day Off Diet. We'll go over most of them one by one below. One thing that we want to emphasize is the importance of "pre-selling" visitors on The Day Off Diet before you send them to our website. If you send them directly you could still make some sales but your conversion rates will almost definitely be much lower.
Whether you are spending your money (PPC) or spending your time (Article Marketing) you don't want to waste your resources. The best way to get a high return on your investment is to convince your visitors that they need The Day Off Diet before they even get to our page. It's a mistake to rely on the vendor's sales page to do all of your selling!
CREATING YOUR OWN PRE-SELL LANDING PAGE
There are many different marketing methods that we'll be going over here, but what they all have in common is that you'll want to be sending your traffic first to your own landing page and then to The Day Off Diet. Do not make the mistake of direct linking, you will have better success by creating your own pre-sell landing page/site!
Types Of Landing Pages
#1 Product Reviews.
Product review landing pages are definitely highly recommended. There are two major categories of review pages. One focuses just on one product and the other ranks products (usually 3 to 5.) I've found the ranking method to be more effective, but both work. To see an example of the "ranking method" - Click here.
The basic formula is to choose 3 to 5 clickbank products in a niche (3 is plenty and it will be less work that way, so I suggest 3.) and then rank them 1 through 3 as seen on the example page. Try to keep it positive as you will probably get some sales for your #2 and #3 ranked products as well.
You can host these product reviews on your own domain/webhost (BlueHost is recommended for webhosting.) which is great for those who really want to build up a long term presence on the web or on a site like Squidoo.com or Hubpages.com which work well for those who want to get started fast & cheap (they are free to use.) You can also include product reviews on a blogger blog with a free blogger account.
You may want to use some of our graphics on your product review page.
#2 Squidoo/Hubpages.
Squidoo and Hubpages are the most popular sites of their kind. They are easy to get started with and you can often "piggyback" on their good standing with Google to get better search engine rankings than you could on your own site.
The downsides? You may lose a lot of visitors to distractions as there are many distractions on sites like these (many other links, many other ads.) Another issue is that Hubpages only allows 2 links which isn't as many as you'll probably want to include.
You only have so much control over these landing pages. There's also a lot of competition.
#3 Niche Blog.
You can create a blog about a certain subject (dieting/losing weight/fitness are good ideas for promoting The Day Off Diet) and supply a lot of good original information about a subject and of course you can constantly be promoting The Day Off Diet while you do it! You can include plenty of Day Off Diet banners for one thing, but you should also include links and try to sell it a bit within your blog posts.
You can create a blog on a free platform like Blogger's blogspot site or you can use WordPress (or blogger) to host a blog on your own domain (use BlueHost as your webhost) which is highly recommended but you will need to be more technically advanced to do it.
Landing Page Cash Machine
Landing Page Cash Machine is a good choice if you want top quality landing pages on your own domain and you don't know much about html editing.
How should I link to The Day Off Diet?
Make sure you always link to The Day Off Diet using your special clickbank referral url with your clickbank ID otherwise you will not get credit for any of the sales you refer!
http://yourclickbankid.dayoff.hop.clickbank.net
Replace "YOURCLICKBANKID" with your own clickank ID.
How do cloak my link?
This isn't as important in this niche as it may be in other niches but you may still wish to "cloak" or "hide" your link. That's perfectly fine. And we've actually found that if you use the method below to redirect links you can get that "redirect" page indexed in the search engines too which is kind of nice.
Create a totally blank html page and then paste the following into it:
Make sure you add your own clickbank ID and then Save the page as something like "buydayoffdiet.html" and then link to that page instead of to the clickbank url.
HOW TO GET TRAFFIC TO MY LANDING PAGE?
Once you've got a landing page, the next step is getting people to your landing page so you can pre-sell them on The Day Off Diet and make some sales!
#1 Pay Per Click (PPC)
Advertising with PPC effectively is a complicated science that we cannot possibly cover in it's entirety here. It's possible to make a lot of money with The Day Off Diet (and other affiliate programs of course) with PPC but it's also possible to lose a lot of money with PPC if you don't know what you are doing.
It's not a good idea to just "wing it" if you are a newcomer to PPC, as you will most likely fail miserably and lose lots of money with little results. You should instead invest some money in PPC Coach so you can know what you are doing. The investment will most likely be more than worth it in the long run.
Another option for learning PPC (AdWords in specific) is Google Cash.

How About The AdWords Content Network?
I used to think the content network was a waste of time with traffic that was impossible to convert at a good percentage but then I read Adwords 180. It completely changed how I look at the content network. I think it's truly a revolutionary concept. If you are someone who has written off the content network I definitely recommend you take another look. CLICK HERE.
#2 Article Marketing
The best thing about article marketing? It's free. The second best thing? It can help you make sales directly and it can also help your landing pages' search engine rankings which can help you make even more sales in the long term.
The basic formula is quite simple: Write informative articles related to dieting & weight loss and then link to your Day Off Diet landing pages in the resource box.
You will have more success if you consider keyword research when you title your articles (don't worry about stuffing your article full of your chosen keywords but get the title right!) The simple way to think about it is: Title your article something that someone would actually be searching for. You should also consider: "Would the person searching for this keyword term be interested in buying what I'm selling?"
If you really want to get serious with keyword research buy Keyword Elite. This software can be used to find the exact keywords you should pinpoint with your articles (and with your PPC campaigns.)
One example of what I mean by using keywords intelligently is to make a landing page with the title "Lose Weight Fast" and it's all about how The Day Off Diet is the best way to lose weight fast (it actually really is too, which should make you feel good about marketing it!) and then you can write articles titled "Lose Weight Fast" and link back to your landing page titled "Lose Weight Fast" with a link with the anchor text "Lose Weight Fast."
At the same time - you should be cautious not to link back to your page with the exact same anchor text each time. Change it up a little bit. Keyword Elite should give you many variations on such a keyword theme which should help you rank for even more searches in the long term.
Where To Submit My Articles?
I recommend focusing your energy on EZineArticles.com rather than on submitting your articles to a lot of lesser directories. They require a minimum of 250 words and they have a 2 resource link limit.
Another option that you may want to mix in with your EZineArticles submissions is ISnare.com which does have a small fee (about $1 per article) but we've found it very effective & and a great way to save time. Basically when you submit an article to ISnare it ends up getting picked up by lots of other sites. How many other sites? That really depends on the quality of your article and the popularity of your article's subject.
You can also use this article submission software to easily submit your article to over 600 article directories.
SubmitYourArticle.com is a great way to get a lot of links back to your pages. The down sides are it costs $37/month and you can't be promotional at all with your "Submit Your Article" articles.
#3 Forum Marketing
This method means signing up for forums related to your niche (in this case dieting/weight loss etc) and then including a link back to your landing pages in your signature. Be careful not to be "spammy" with your posts as you'll just get banned. Be a real helpful member of the forum and then you won't get banned and people will be more interested in clicking on the links in your signature!
Don't bother with forums that won't let you include a link in your signature.
#4 USFREEADS
For $9.99/month you can put up as many ads as you want. The nice thing about these ads is that they are ads and you can be as promotional as you want which is not the case with articles, EZineArticles & ISnare can be quite touchy about the amount of promotional language you can use in your articles. Another good thing about USFreeAds is that your ads can rank quite well in the search engines without too much effort. You can link directly to a product or to one of your other landing pages with USFREEADS.
There are other classified ad sites that you can add your ads to as well but we haven't had any success with them, we recommend only using this one so you do not waste time!
#5 Blog Commenting
You have to be very careful with this strategy. We do not encourage spamming. If you leave comments on blogs you must leave a comment that is actually related to what the blogger has written about, if it's incoherent then it'll just be considered spam and it'll be deleted anyway. You should also only use this strategy if you have a blog of your own to link back to. Most bloggers do not like comments which link back to obviously commercial sites/pages.
A great way to find blogs to comment on is Google's blog search.
#6 Social Bookmarking
You can try SocialMarker.com to make posting to social bookmarking sites like Digg.com & Propeller.com faster.
Bookmark Generation is another option, it will automate the bookmarking process and can help you get a lot of bookmarks very quickly. It's not free (currently $77/month) but if you've got the money, it may be a smart investment.
#7 YouTube Videos
You can create videos that promote The Day Off Diet in some way (get creative!) and upload them to YouTube. Put your website in the description area.
You don't even need a video camera to create a video, you can use a "slideshow" technique with a few pictures instead.
#8 Banner Advertising
We've got banners in almost every size for you to use, click here to see them. There are many places to advertise via banners including AdWords & AdBrite. You can also try direct banner advertising (ie contacting sites directly about putting a banner on their site) sometimes you can get much better deals doing this and you may be able to get some SEO benefit from it that way as well.
SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION?
All of the methods listed above (except for PPC & Banner Advertising) will help your landing page's SEO by creating incoming links which should help your site show up higher in the search results. Thus methods 2 through 7 are not only for the direct traffic potential but also for the long term SEO potential.
I do not recommend worrying about things like "keyword density" when thinking about SEO. These days SEO is basically about two things: LINKS & your title tag. You need to make sure your title tag has the keywords you want to show up for in it. And you should also try to link to your site with those keywords.

SIMPLE & FREE STEP BY STEP METHOD
Are you an affiliate marketing beginner and you're not sure where to start with marketing The Day Off Diet and you don't want to spend any money? If so then we've set up this simple step by step method for you to follow.
#1 Sign up with Clickbank.com as an affiliate.
#2 Make a Day Off Diet review landing page on Squidoo.com, Hubpages.com, Wordpress.com, and/or Blogger. Title it something like "Lose Weight Fast With The Day Off Diet." (You can use Google's free Keyword "sandbox" to get good keyword ideas.) Use our graphics & banners to spice up your review! You can start off with just one landing page or you can go ahead and make 2 or 3. You could make many different landing pages that focus on different keywords! For example one would be "Lose Weight Fast With The Day Off Diet" and another would be "Weight Watchers Vs. The Day Off Diet."
It may be a good idea to focus on solving people's problems. For example you could make a landing page with the title "How To Lose Weight Fast."
Remember to link to The Day Off Diet using your special clickbank affiliate link: http://YOURCLICKBANKID.dayoff.hop.clickbank.net --- You should also bookmark your landing pages with SocialMarker.com
#3 Sign up with EZineArticles.com
#4 Write articles about dieting & weight loss with a link back to your landing page(s) in your resource area. It would be best to make two landing pages (for example one on Squidoo & one on Hubpages) so that you can use both of the links that EZineArticles allows you. Submit the article!
#5 Once the article is "live" (online) use SocialMarker.com to "social bookmark" your article.
#6 Repeat steps #4 & #5 over and over again! The more articles you write the more chances you have to make sales. You can also create as many landing pages as you want if you want to try for more keyword variations. It's a good idea to go for "long tail" keywords rather than very basic ones like "diet" and "weight loss." The idea is that there is much more competition for simple keyword phrases and they are also not as targeted. Remember you want to use keywords that someone who is a likely buyer of The Day Off Diet would use!
