Blackhat Guide
Version 1.0
Let’s face it … it’s a dog eat dog world out there. Everyone is competing
with everyone else on the internet in order to succeed. If it were that easy,
everyone would be making money online. What is the difference between
blackhat and whitehat? Blackhat is unethical ways of getting higher rankings on
the search engines, or basically just unethical methods of making money on the
internet. Whitehat internet marketing is the process of doing legit marketing on
the search engines, and ranking through various sources which we will discuss
later on in this chapter.
In order for a blackhatter to succeed on the internet, they need to know the
core basics of whitehat internet marketing. Without knowing the whitehat basics
of internet marketing, one cannot call himself a blackhatter. A blackhatter is
someone who knows the ins and outs, or just the very basics of an affiliate or an
entity and will manipulate it in order to make the most income from it.
Those that I have taught and mentored various blackhat methods, have
made a great deal of income on the internet. The difference between them, and
others were that they implemented these methods. They did not just learn and
say “oh what a great read” but they applied themselves to do the work and made
the money. Internet marketing is not easy as many ‘gurus’ claim. There are
many different factors that come in play when marketing on the internet that
most ebooks won’t tell you. This is why I have created a system of mentorship,
and guides to help you make money. Blackhat Guide has a system where we have
a membership forum where we can help mentor each other throughout our
internet marketing ventures.
Now that we have this established, let’s start making some money on the internet!
Let’s say that most internet users are savvy when it comes to
affiliate links. They don’t want to go through your affiliate link, so they type in
the actual sales page and purchase something. In this instance, you are losing
your sales because they aren’t getting your affiliate cookie. So they visit your
promotion page such as a blog that you wrote about a Clickbank product, and
they decide not to go to your affiliate link. Instead, they type in the sales page url
on their browser to visit the Clickbank product’s sales page.
Although cookie stuffing can get you banned, there are methods
where you can be safe cookie stuffing and avoid the ‘banning blues’. These
methods include hiding the referrer information, or blanking the referrer. These
methods also include some ‘blackhat’ techniques.
Alright, you got passed all of the fluff in the previous pages about
cookie stuffing. Now, you’re ready to cookie stuff. Teach me how to cookie stuff!
In this section of the e-book, we will go through three different methods to cookie
stuff. If used correctly, this can be very profitable, but it can also be very
disappointing.
When you are using this method of cookie stuffing, everyone who
visits your site will get stuffed by your affiliate url. This forces the affiliate cookie
onto their computer when they visit your website with this code. The thing about
this code, is that there are many flaws. The visitor will see a red ‘x’ indicating that
there is a problem with the image, in which you know there isn’t because the
image url is actually linking to your affiliate link. Usually, you would find
something like
This code will link to an image file (image.jpg). If you put your
affiliate link in replacement of the image url, it will attempt to load the affiliate
url onto the user’s computer instead of the image. This is one of the simplest
ways of cookie stuffing. This is also a big no-no when an affiliate manager visits
your website. They will see what you are doing, and most likely ban you from
their affiliate network.

RewriteRule signature.jpg http://www.affiliatelinkhere.com/ [L,R=301]
Now let’s analyze this code. The signature.jpg is what you will use on your
website as the ploy image. When they try to load this signature.jpg file, they will
be stuffed with the affiliate link. Let’s say you have a website, and you put the
“image” signature.jpg such as http://www.yourdomain.com/signature.jpg. Then
they will be stuffed with your affiliate link because when .htaccess reads this file,
it does not load the image, but the affiliate link.
Now copy and paste the code onto a text file, and save it as
“.htaccess”. Upload this file onto the directory of your website, and you will be
able to stuff whatever signature.jpg is with your affiliate link. There you have it!
Now let’s go on to the next section, and make some money!
What are the benefits of cookie stuffing, and where/who can we stuff? The
benefits of cookie stuffing, is that the user will receive your cookie to credit you
when they purchase a product from the affiliate company. Let’s give an
example … eBay partner network. Everyone, their moms, and their mom’s mom
will purchase items on ebay. More than 60% of the internet users will purchase
something on eBay. The eBay partner network is an affiliate company which will
pay you for each purchase in which you directed traffic to.
Now that you know how to cookie stuff, let’s take a look on how we
can make money with this. If you were a little confused about the previous
section, don’t worry! I’ve made a .htaccess file for you included in the sales page.
I’ve also included some software and scripts to help you stuff virtually anything!
Alright, now there are many ways in which you can do this. You can
stuff forums, social networking sites such as myspace, xanga, and your websites.
The reason why I chose these three, was because these three share common
grounds. They all have users who purchase items on the internet. Let’s take
amazon.com as an example site in which we will stuff.
Ok, when you go to amazon and sign up for an associate code, they
will give you a link in which you can promote to get commission from the sales
generated through your link. I’m not going to go into much technical detail, but
instead show you a simple method that has made me hundreds per day.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001ACH4DS?ie=UTF8&tag=affiliate-
20&link_code=as3&camp=211189&creative=373489&creativeASIN=B001ACH4

After finding your affiliate link for any product on amazon.com, you will want to
add that link onto your .htaccess file so it will look like this :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule signature.jpg
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001ACH4DS?ie=UTF8&tag=affiliate-
20&link_code=as3&camp=211189&creative=373489&creativeASIN=B001ACH4

[img]http://www.yourdomain.com/signature.jpg[/img]
or in a website
<img src=”http://www.yourdomain.com/signature.jpg”>
The user who visits the site will get COOKIE STUFFED! That’s
right! You have officially mastered cookie stuffing. Everytime
yourdomain.com/signature.jpg is loaded, they will get cookie stuffed with your
amazon.com affiliate code. They don’t even have to visit your amazon.com
affiliate link or anything. Whenever they purchase an item in amazon, you will
get the commissions.
Now let’s say we cookie stuff ebay buyers. Every purchase that they make
will be credited to you since they have your affiliate cookie code. Now the
question is, where can we find ebay users to stuff?
Plain and simple fellas, myspace! I have been stuffing myspace for ages,
and they are a pure GOLDMINE. Here are the steps needed to make a myspace
profile get 100k-300k traffic clicks per day.
When finding a forum, you want to find the forum that has the most
posts and threads so you can actually have a large amount of people to stuff. “If
you shooting for the moon with 1000 rockets is better than shooting for the moon
with 1 rocket. You will eventually hit something”. This is the same with forum
stuffing. The more you stuff, the more you will get results from your affiliates,
and thus the more money you will make.
Myspace alone gives off millions of hits each day. If you can stuff a
fraction of those people, think about how much money you will make! Leading
people to your myspace page and stuffing them with your “image” is a great way
to get tons and tons of clicks to your affiliate link. If you get at least 100 myspace
visitors a day to your myspace page, why not cookie stuff them with an affiliate
link such as amazon, or ebay? Out of your 100 friends who visit your myspace
page, how many of them do you think will purchase from amazon.com or
ebay.com?
Now what this does, is it prompts you everytime you are about to
load a cookie onto your computer. After this is done, visit your website, or forum
that you cookie stuffed using your image e.g. :
You stuffed
http://www.yoursite.com/index.html
with
<img src=”http://www.yourdomain.com/signature.jpg”>
There you have it. You are now a cookie stuffing master. Stuff as
much as you please on many different forums, websites, and social networking
sites. The more work and effort that you put to have your stuffing “images” on
other sites, the more visits and clicks you will get. This will increase your
potential of earning money on that particular affiliate site.
Using this guide can greatly increase your sales and if used correctly,
it can help you generate a lifelong income. Use this guide as a resource for more
ideas in the future, and for more ventures in the internet marketing world.
Introduction to Clickbank
Now that we know what Clickbank is, let’s go on to the next page, to
the Ultimate Clickbank Method. This is what you paid for, and this is what you’re
going to get. With this method, you can easily make up to $100 to $300 a day.
http://ultimatesearchengineloophole.net/blog/
Ok, so you have your blog. This is going to be your “landing page”.
This is where the actual work comes in. When you find your product, such as
“weight loss”, write a simple 3-4 posts.
Example: http://fastweightlossblog.net
This way, you will be able to see your blog before it’s actually posted.
What you want to do, is post in the order of the last paragraph on your notepad,
to the first so then your blog posts will go in order from first paragraph to last on
your notepad.
When you put up a new thread on blogger, or wordpress, your old post
gets pushed down, and the newer post is posted on top of the old post. So by
posting last paragraph to first on your notepad, you will have the correct order of
what the reader will read first.
This is how we are going to get target online buyers onto your
landing page, and pre-selling them to actually purchase your Clickbank product.
Articles are the best way to convert buyers onto buying Clickbank
products. They are interesting to the reader, honest, and provided quality
content. When they see an article, and they see that it’s good, they will visit your
landing page which you will provide to them at the end of the article.
Alright, here are the steps to rewriting these articles and making them unique:
This is probably the easiest and simplest way to rewrite an article and
making it unique. Remember, when you articles are unique and interesting,
you will get more conversions for your product. If you have more articles
submitted, you will have more traffic, and thus making more sales.
Disclaimer: we are not responsible for the actions you take upon the
information below. We are only teaching you for educational purposes. The
information below can get you banned from affiliate companies. Although you
can get banned from affiliate companies, staying under the radar and keeping
your tracks clean using these methods can be very very profitable.
When a user clicks on your link, that user is stuffed with a cookie so
that when they make a purchase through the affiliate, your sales are being
recorded so that you get paid through Clickbank.
Usually when people see affiliate links, they tend to get nervous and
sway away from them leaving your website. If a user will see
website.com/?ref=clickbankusername , they will usually not purchase because
they don’t want you to make any money from their purchase. Cookie stuffing
your website with that particular link will not only help them trust you more, but
you will also get more sales this way. It’s a proven fact!
