Who the heck am I?
Name’s Chris Rempel.
I was born in 1984 in a place called “Lloydminster”, which is an oil-town in northern Alberta (and Saskatchewan), in the cold, barren prairies of Canada.
Basically, let’s just say that growing up in Lloydminster instills you with an automatic & intensely passionate drive to travel to NICE places all over the world, with no intention of returning.
Ever.
I’m married to a lovely (and incredibly beautiful) girl named Sarah, who, due to some temporary mental-lapse, decided to marry me when I finally managed to bumble out a half-decent proposal. I think she’s coping well with that decision for the time-being – and as a result, I am one lucky guy to say the least!
Anyway…
If you’re reading this page, it’s probably because you want to decide if my advice or my product (Confessions of a Lazy Super-Affiliate) is worth your time. And rightly so – you should only learn from people who can actually help you get to where you wanna go.
Now, I can say whatever I want – but that doesn’t matter. My word means nothing on its own.
And so I’m going to encourage you to do something that few “self-proclaimed experts” will ever do:
Google Me, and see what others have to say…
In fact, I’ll make it easy for you to do just that.
Here’s a list of keyword searches that you can click on to bring up reviews on my ebook, as well as my teaching style and content quality in general:
Google Results for “Confessions of a Lazy Super Affiliate”
Google Results for “Confessions of a Lazy Super Affiliate Review”
Google Results for “The Lazy Marketer Review”
Google Results for “Chris Rempel Review”
Then, if you like what you see – come back, read the blog, get the book and use my experience to your advantage. Give yourself a shortcut, so that you don’t have to get stuck on things that won’t result in major online profits.
I wrote “Confessions” because it’s what I wish I had when I started out 3 years ago. I wasted almost 2 years on stuff that accomplished basically nothing – living just under the poverty line – because I was too stubborn to listen to other people’s advice.
People who had been there. People who were at the place where I wanted to be.
Don’t be like I was, back then.
Do your research – but don’t be afraid to learn from others, either.
Not everyone in this business is a snake-oil scam artist
Some genuinely care – and not just because it makes them money. A lot of us remain active in the “how to make money online” markets because it’s genuinely interesting to us, and because it’s a strong passion that’s turned into a reality.
A sweet, and at times unbelievable reality…
Success doesn’t come “easy” – but it CAN and DOES come if you’re focusing on the right actions, the right methods and the right tactics in the right markets.
I explore all of those factors on this site, and in my book.
Later,
-Chris

Hey Chris,
I grew up in Southern Alberta just south of Lethbridge. I now work for Russell Brunson in Boise. Send me an email and we can see how we can help each other.

Hi Brent,
Lethbridge, eh? I actually like Lethbridge quite a bit, I have a few friends there from college.
Quite windy, though, as I recall…
Sure, I’ll send over an email.
Cheers,

Hi Chris,
I just want to tell you a big thank you for your book…i was making very small money before i read your book…around $150 a month with adsense…i know it’s not a business…loll…i wanted to switch to affiliate products but was lacking some serious linking strategies….was only doing articles submission….
Your book was a revelation for that part….my new site is only 3 months old…and this month i will be close to a $1000 in profits…i must say thank you so much…i intend to duplicate this success over and over….
I have already found my other niche and i know i can make a killing huge demand..desperate buyers and virtually no competition…Can’t wait to have multiple websites…
I now have the knowledge to change my life…:)
Of course i had a lot of knowledge before reading your book, but your book was the thing that made me take action and keep focus…guess it arrived at the right timing in my life…
I can’t thank you enough…
Fred.

Fred,
That’s AWESOME, dude!
Right on – keep on going with it, and remember that once you’re in a niche that’s profitable for you and worth your while – start scaling things up.
Build authority sites, create feeder products, become your own “competition” and so on – so that you generate as MANY sources of organic traffic flow as possible.
This will lay a concrete foundation to an already passive income stream, while multiplying profits.
Turning those money-makers into a BUSINESS.

Hi Chris!
Looks like you really know your way around the internet marketing world! I am very interested in purchasing your book, but being an absolute newbie to the whole marketing/business/internet thing…I wonder if it is way too advanced for me at this point? If so, where should I educate myself first? If not, do you really get down to the “basics” and the step by step of it all?
Thanks for your time and help….so many aren’t willing to give you the time of day!
Sincerely,
Shawn

Hi Shawn,
Well, my book covers alot of content about what types of visitors to target, what kinds of keywords to focus on, how to effectively build your pages for maximum conversion, how to RAMP UP your efforts to build a real business in the process – and how to duplicate your results and diversify your traffic sources over time for a rock-solid foundation of “lazy” profits.
It assumes that you already have a good grasp on basic website creation, and a bacgkround in the basics of internet business.
A good place to START, from scratch, would be to visit Allan Gardyne’s AssociatePrograms.com and read the articles for beginners, join his newsletter and get involved in the active, yet focused forum there.
From there, I can recommend Jimmy D Brown’s ListAndTraffic.com, which is a great intro (and full-blown blueprint) on growing and profiting from the long-term profits of email list & relationship marketing.
Once you have a handle on those basics, then MY course is basically a bunch of shortcuts for getting there as fast as possible.
Think of it as buying a turbo-charger; it needs an existing vehicle to be fitted on.
All the best,
-Chris

I’ve read your ebook Confessions and I find it very interesting.
I already have a computer based website. Would it make sense to include a registry desperate buy type of section in it or should the registry stuff be in a separate domain?
8 admin // Feb 14, 2008 at 1:48 am
Hi David,
It would make sense for that site, for sure.
So would other related topics like spyware, adware, etc. Since your domain is already somewhat established, it makes more sense to simply scale it out, rather than having to start fresh with a new domain from an SEO stand-point – because it’s already on topic.
Cheers!

Chris,
Your one of the very few marketers online that I actually listen to, really like your style and you are genuine, which is something that is quite rare in this online marketing world.
So… get more content out
only kiddin, though it would be good, lol.
Cheers
12 kevin scott // Jul 1, 2008 at 7:49 am
Chris In your article “The Conduit Method” you talk about building links softly through article submission.What I want to know is are the individual articles about the products themselves or are they written using certain keywords as the basis for the articles with links leading to the website? Could you give me some examples?
13 Zach // Jul 6, 2008 at 11:09 pm
Hey Chris,
I enjoyed the information you freely provided on your website regarding making money online, etc.
I’m interested in purchasing your ebook but at this time I don’t have the funds to do so.
Anyway, I wanted to ask you a question about making money online as your more experienced than I in this area.
I just recently had my blog that I was casually working on deleted do to my free hosting provider making some stupid mistakes (and me not creating a backup I lost all my data).
Anyway, before this occurred I started to get a load of traffic from google. My blog posts were indexed within 24hrs sometimes within 9.
It’s been a couple weeks since then and I still rank highly for certain keyphrases in google out of millions of sites. Usually on the first page of the SERPs.
I created this website at no cost to myself so I think I did pretty darn well. I’m not sure though because I haven’t asked anyone till you.
I thought about just forgetting this website, but then after reading the information from your site I thought that perhaps I could somehow leverage the power that my old deleted site has and create something new.
Do you have any ideas? Let me know what you think.
Zach
P.S. the website url is within this comment’s sig.
Thanks again! Oh and if you want the key phrases just ask me or look on the landing page!
14 Scott Million // Jul 7, 2008 at 3:39 am
Hi Kevin, I think a good strategy is to target non-product keywords in your article marketing and then have the anchor text in your articles be variations of the product, company, and author keywords…
This gets your site ranked for product related keywords and the traffic that trickles in from your articles will be impressed with the awesome non-biased info you’ve given them and be warmed up to hear what you have to say about products related to their problem/niche.
Of course, if you have the time DO IT ALL! But, you may find it more cost-effective to write another product review and start promoting that then to focus all your effort on only a few products. Once you start making money on some then you can go back and ramp up….find what works first!
My two cents…:)

I bought the Conduit Method. I understand there is a video that goes with it. How do I get the
video. Thanks.

Hi Chris,
I’m entering this here because your email in the main site is not working ….it keeps asking for the security code …and I entered it a gazillion times.
Anyways, since 2002 I have been fascinated with the possibilities of interenet marketing and sales. Back then I signed up with Stores on Line and actually built what seemed lke a very nice site selling Swiss Army Knives.
Unfortunatelly, although I got a few sales, it was not enough to keep me going and actually was not making much money after paying for PPC and other marketing costs… so I abandoned the project.
In the last couple of weeks, I got the bug to get back into it again and am working on an e-book. I read your sales letter and was impressed by your straightforwardness and good information.
I am tempted to get your material, but I’m affraid that it may be over my head and that even though you make it sound simple, it may be too technical for me and I may not be able to understand it or actualize it (I can work with templates but don’t know how to program a site from scratch).
Is this the case, or is it more like ….with the right application and following directions, even a caveman can do it?
Thanks for taking the time to respond

Hello
I arrived here via a conversation about marketing software on the web. One of your methods has something to do with submitting software to sites like download.com and 500+ more sites.
Where can I find information on this methodology and how is the best way to make money from it.
A quick context background.
I started on the web in the mid 90′s. Had A very highly ranked site. #19 in April and May of 1997. Could not make any money on it since at the time Visa would not allow online sales with their accounts. I went into software consulting and am very successful at it. But I want to get back into the web more “passive ” Aspect of software and alike.

18 Rusty - Fitness Black Book // Sep 13, 2008 at 8:30 pm
Chris,
Thankyou for putting out such a fantastic book (Confessions of a Superaffiliate). I have a blog that is getting over 6,000 page views per day, but wasn’t really pulling in any affiliate commissions. When I read that you didn’t like blogs as a way to promote affiliate products, a lightbulb went of in my head.
I created a little static page mini-course on how to get low body fat and put it in a folder on my blog’s domain to share some of the PR value.
I followed your linking tactics and “walla”…consistent Clickbank sales each week!
Since my site is about fitness, I can create a ton of these little static mini-sites based on different topics and make steady commissions while helping people.
I love you style of simplifying all of this and building a steady income over time. I made $1,200 last month, but as long as I build upon that I am good.
Thanks buddy!
19 Joe // Sep 17, 2008 at 7:23 pm
Just on board and a question already: what order do you recommend for going through your material? I have Confessions, Conduit, Reverse and VIP Essentials.
20 dmr // Sep 20, 2008 at 6:48 am
Chris …
Have ALL that you have written so far and am working away at putting it all to good use. As easy as you explain it, there is one area where I am stuck on the corner of walk and don’t walk.
I sell cars in Toronto and one of my target markets is the bad credit/no credit. I worked through the process you shared for the registry software, but am having a bit of a hard time applying it to my situation especially when there is no product out there to promote (so yes I will write one) … in the interim any suggestions as to what I can do to generate the traffic? The guys at work, their eyes all glaze over when I talk about this, my GM says just do it … I’s stuck but know when everything jams it will be fantastic … it’s the getting there right now.
Any suggestions??

22 Doug // Sep 30, 2008 at 8:46 am
Chris – Love the new VVMM report so far. One minor typo to correct, on page 7: “Three good reasons…” should probably be “There are good reasons…”. Too bad spell check can’t catch that kind of thing.

I just purchased the loophole and the linkubater or whatever!
I had just started looking at the videos page with tips when I lost my connection by the time I got back on I had lost that page. Do I need these videos for my help. If I do please let me know how I can get back to them.
Thanks

Chris, I get really good vibes reading your stuff! You’re the real deal without the hype.
I invented, OK, I told a coder what I wanted and he wrote a little script for me.
I wanted to set up tracking for affiliates from start to finish of my webinars. At the end of the webinar the presenter displays a special order link. You know, right when they are hot to buy!
The exact same link is seen by everyone at the webinar but it magically routes them to the affiliate’s order page!
Now, affiliates can make money by sending traffic to my free webinars.
I’d like you to be my first interview on how to get tons of affiliates. Interested?

Hi Chris,
In you COALSA you mention a more info URL in Promosoft for viral marketing back to Zimbio and Squidoo, I have Promosoft 1.811 and I can’t find the URL. Have they changed it, moved it or got rid of it that you’re aware of?
Thanks

Hi Chris,
Will I get a free upgrade to the second version of your book buying the first one?
If yes, cool. If no, I’m going to wait for version2.0.
For now I’m going to get your product creation course, I’m focusing on that subject for the last 1,5 month and after reading a great post from Allen Says I agree with you, it’s the way to go as you can use massive leverage.
Hope you can let me know about my question soon, thanks.

dude, just made my first clickbank sale from a conduit style review site. Have just about 15 pages up, haven’t even finished the whole thing yet and 1 sale already from 19 visits.
34 Tony // Jun 5, 2009 at 1:37 am
I just stumbled upon the msn loophole strategy and then found your other books. I was wondering where a good place to start would be?
I noticed the loophole book’s gravity has gone down quite a bit since the video’s.
Is this still a “preforming” strategy? And do you reveal this strategy in any of your other books.
What should I buy first, 2nd etc?
35 Siriporn // Sep 20, 2009 at 7:29 am
I got a file about ur 4000linksback_dofollow, the question i have is about this part:
“So what this means is that all you have to do is simply make intelligent responses to those
blog posts, link back to your site from the URL field, and the link will “count”.
From my understanding, i got to people blogs and leave comment, “the link back to ur site from URL” part I don’t understand. I hope u can help clarify. I’m desparate!! I got a site up, but no traffic, no sales, nothing yet! AND I don’t know much about computer technology. Hope to hear from you.
36 determine1 // Oct 1, 2009 at 10:38 am
Hello Chris,
I have just finished reading some reviews about your book, and one of the reviewer said that it was not for beginners. He said that it was for
intermediate-level marketer. Is that true, and if it is do you have something for beginners? I am new to internet marketing. Can you Help?
37 Brittany // Nov 17, 2009 at 1:05 am
Hi Chris,
I just bought your ‘Confessions of a Lazy Super-Affiliate’ and it was a great read, now I just hope that your methods will work. Right now I’ve been dabbling in Adsense and made a little money but I don’t see making any substatial money with it especially since there are way better sites than mine with greater amounts of traffic than my site doing Adsense as well.
Although I do disagree with you about not being able to make money with Adsense, you can make alot of money but you have to put in sooo much work. There are many people making thousands a month with Adsense but they’re putting in 40+ hours a week to do so. I don’t want to do that lol—I’m lazy.
And speaking of lazy lol I really thought there would be some shortcuts in here about getting ranking lol—but alas no. At least these methods will most likely work but they’ll take a good amount of time and effort to work and there still is no guarantee I’d get a mini site I create to rank well after all the work lol.
I know you said it would be idea to outsource the work but when you have virtually no money to spare at the moment it’s a bad idea for something that you yourself said may not work (the niche/product).
I really wish you’d gone into detail about how to get one-way links though, you really didn’t. Pretty much all you said was how much it would cost to outsource the work lol. So I’m assuming you don’t know any clear cut way to do this.
And I do have a question: which monthly software program do you suggest using—3 Way Links or LinkVana OR both?
38 admin // Nov 17, 2009 at 1:12 am
Brittany,
Links that last are either built with $$ or elbow grease.
Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying or uninformed.
The “clear cut” way to get links involves having content that is worth linking to, and then marketing your site effectively.
This includes things like exclusive content submission, buying links on sites (yes, this works), article submissions, directory submissions, outright asking for links, blog commenting on “dofollow” blogs, and so on.
It’s grueling and not fun. Which is why I outsource it.
Oh, and I use LinkVana, which is essentially a fancy version of paid links – but it’s automated, which I like.
There is no “secret” or shortcut.
There are exploits, but these are almost always short-lived.
Don’t read between the lines of what I just said in my reply. It’s literally as simple as that – and what I’ve published in “Confessions”.
The difference is that when you actually DO it, you see results.
Most people end up doing like one thing and then they give up because it’s actually a fair bit of work.
I’ve been there, and done that. It’s not easy.
But it IS clear cut and simple.
-Chris
39 Brittany // Nov 17, 2009 at 2:50 am
Thanks for the response
I didn’t think you’d actually respond, especially as quick as you have.
Just 2 quick questions hereafter and then I will be totally out of your hair: 1) you recommended 3waylinks.net in “Confessions” but is it useful for the price you pay & 2) what do you mean by “exclusive content submission”—is it the “souped up” article submission you were mentioning in “Confessions”?
And for anyone who reads this comment 0n a scale of 1-10 I would give Chris’s “Confessions” an 8. The reason why is because it’s not as easy as the sales letter lets on but I believe that if you follow his instructions over a period of time you will see results.
Hard to say though at this stage since I haven’t done anything with the info. yet, although some of it I already knew. But there’s good info. in “Confessions” and I would definitely recommend it for folks who are in the beginner to intermediate level; a few tidbits in it that people more advanced may not even know.
40 John // Apr 1, 2010 at 1:34 am
Hey Chris,
Please update your support system to include products you’re actually promoting, since it is sometimes difficult to actually find where the hell to put in a message.
Really, it needs work. You’re hard enough to contact as it is…hint.
I tried to get a message in in time to order the Armory videos, but there is no place to do that on the support site. The question was critical for me, and as a result I couldn’t buy, which really is a shame.
