Affiliate Marketing Secrets

If you are browsing eBay, and see a listing that explicitly states that you are buying a custom Xbox controller, not affiliated with Microsoft in any way, when does it become an illegal listing?
1. When the controller was repainted with original art that is not licensed.
2. When the controller was modded for rapid fire.
3. When the controller had a copyrighted logo painted as part of the art.
4. When the controller had modifications to the hardware itself (led, custom thumb sticks, etc.)
If there is anywhere that I can see in print what makes a custom controller ‘illegal for sale’ it would be a huge help, but searching has been no help this far.
Thanks!

i have some experience and extensive background in a field that one cannot just learn about anywhere so i want to sell my knowledge online. i want to pay for a website to be posted on google with a ” how to manual” and sell a short book or pamphlet for 150.00. i have basic ideas on how to market a book/pamplet online via a website but need some pointers. im assuming if i sell a video then it will be duplictated and resold by scammers so i think a mail order would work where i simply bill the customer for postage and mail it out. any ideas? im assuming that key words and google placement is key as you need to maximize hits on your site to increase hits etc.. other than that the info for sale should market itself… im wondering how i can protect the knowledge or reproduction of the material ie. infringement so its not stolen or massed produced like napster and music. obviously this is just a pamplet of info but id like to maximize this opportunity do you have any suggestions. basically this is inside business and advertising secrets etc… i want to appeal to entreprenuers and business folks and paying for this knowledge would enhance their market postion greatly etc…. what format would be best to sell information on like should i type of manuals or ” how to ” books? thanks
any ideas? thanks!

I am planning on investing at the stock market this year. I am still in college and have no experience in investing. I have little knowledge on how the stock market work. I really want to engage in this kind of “business”. Are there any tips you can provide for me? Any materials that I can read or watch about investing, not necessarily about the stock market only, which are in layman’s terms? Thank you so much to anyone who will give a proper and complete answer.

I would like to sell a few different products filling a specific niche – however, they would be related to Nintendo trademarked products.
Do I need to become licensed to sell nintendo type product?
If so, how do I do that?
Seeing as how I’m based out of Canada, and they are based out of Japan, would I be liable if I went ahead and did it anyways? I’m almost positive they can reach you anywhere, but figured I would ask anyways.

Everyone wants a freebie. Who would want to refuse a freebie anyway? Perhaps, eight or nine out of ten people would accept a freebie and one or two will forego it for some reasons. No matter how inexpensive a freebie is, people would be glad to accept it perhaps because it is human nature to be appreciative of gifts. In affiliate marketing, making use of gifts can be very beneficial especially if you know how to strategically deploy them. These are the best ways to offer freebies so you can have excellent marketing rewards.
Use Freebies in Your Marketing Campaign
In affiliate marketing, a freebie can be a very powerful instrument to turn your site visitors into loyal customers. If you offer some good and useful freebies, your site visitors will surely come back for more. But it is important to remember that they will have to find the freebies you are offering relevant and that there has to be a relevance between the main service or product you are promoting and the freebies you are offering on your site as well. A good example of a freebie you can offer if, let’s say, your main product is an e-book about party planning is a short report on how to host a successful party. Make sure that the freebie you are offering should promote or supplement the main product and highlight its importance.
Offer Useful Freebies but Offer Better Products
Of course, offering something that your visitors won’t just ignore is a great way of catching their attention and making come back for more. But make sure that the freebies you are offering on your site is no better than the products you are selling. Offer freebies to enhance the use of the product you are selling and not to make the customers ignore your premium offers. Your freebies are only part of your marketing strategy to attract more visitors and persuade them to make a purchase. If you make your freebies better than the products you are offering, then forget about making money from your affiliate marketing site.
Offering freebies is already a proven strategy that can be a very valuable tool in affiliate marketing. There are so many freebies you can afford to offer on your affiliate marketing site. A good example is to offer a useful mini-ebook that also promotes your affiliate marketing products or offer free shipping of products at a certain period of time. By imposing a time restriction, your site visitors will be encouraged to take advantage of the offer and make a purchase immediately.
