For many bloggers trying to earn a living from their writing and blogs, this is the Holy Grail. A couple of programmers figured out how to allow people to refer people to your blog and earn money. . . With a huge twist.

These guys are trying to level the playing field. The lopsided playing field of big name internet marketers who gobble up all the profits from people who work hard to send people to their product pages. Now the "little guys" can really take a giant step towards blog profits. How this works is a bit technical, but put simply it goes like this.

Normal Affiliate marketing looks like this:

1. Jack creates a page to promote something (his or someone else's)
2. Jill sends people to Joe's page and earns a percentage.

In order for Jill to earn more she must send more people to that one page.

Now, take the concept a couple steps further:

1. Jack creates an ebook with an affiliate link (or many)
2. Jill sends people to a page on Jack's site where visitors sign up to get
it for free, or just sends them to a cool post

And from then on, when it comes to Jill's referrals:

Jill gets a cut from whatever Jack promotes in his ebook
Jill gets a cut from whatever else Jack promotes now or later on his blog.

First, your blog becomes a place people will want to send people to in droves.

Second, this works both ways. All you have to do is sign up at the persons blog, and use your special link to refer people. This is something we as bloggers do all the time anyway.

I cannot see why every blogger wouldn't want this for his site: http://gfnproject.com/Introduces/affiliatepower
