The following is a sponsored review of ZacJohnson.com
This is actually my first review of a “single person” blog so I was a bit apprehensive about doing it, but after looking around I decided to give it a go. I don’t actually know Zac Johnson and haven’t heard his name mentioned in the past, but I know lots of other affiliates who stay under the radar with a low profile and make a lot of cash, so it’s not uncommon.
Zac’s blog focuses on affiliate products and networks and that’s where I think it has the most value. For example I found the posts Make Money with Affiliate Fuel, New eBay Affiliate Payout Structure, Make Money with Jim Cramer Update, and Why Do Affiliate Networks Let Super Affiliates Leave much more interesting, and would think narrowing down the focus would make it much appealing. I’m not a big fan of “secondary SEO news blogs” and think the blog as whole would improve staying away from those types of stories and focused more on affiliate posts.
This blog is also fairly new, March 2007 as far as I can tell. Something I think that would add a lot of value is reviewing some basic library type posts, things like “how to evaluate a market for money making potential”, “things to look for in good/bad affiliate programs”, or “top X mistakes newbie affiliates make that cost them money” would be helpful.
At the top of every page was this header
I think adding a link to my top/best/favorite posts would also be helpful (especially if you are looking for reviews, wink wink nudge nudge). Looking at the Zac’s Aproved Money Makers list I’d like a little more info if possible. I don’t have a problem with him using and aff link, but I do want a little more info if he’s getting a cut, something simple like ‘how to use azoogle reporting system to make more money’ would be an idea.
As I said this is a fairly new blog, so it’s hard to say if it will still be around, and be providing any value a year from now. Then again there’s probably room for another A-List affiliate blogger aside from John Chow. So if you are an affiliate it’s worth taking a look at especially since he’s starting an affiliate program review in the next few days.
