Can Netflix API Affiliate Program Make Money Online or Mobile

By Luis Galarza - Internet Marketing Tips.

Can Anyone Make Money Online With Netflix API Affiliate Program? If Yes, How?

One of my readers from Make Money Online Marketing just ask me "if the Netflix API change a lot?" in my blog post title "Make Money Online: Netflix API For Developers", here my extended answer:

Not really sure about that question, I paid some programmers in India to make a 3 different type of applications 2 for mobile phones and another for the web. What I can tell you is that if is done right works like magic, really to monetize, with a mix of Netflix affiliate program, CPA programs, and Adsense.

The mobile apps already generating an steady monthly income, nothing really big, but I didn't use any type of paid advertising, just word-of-mouth and viral marketing strategies. Now the apps are been used by a lot of phone users in Massachusetts, Ecuador, Spain, Italy, and a few other countries.


The Marketing.

The only thing I did was text or SMS my familly and friends about this new application, and the rest was just story. Yes, that's it! Sorry, is not crazy super powerful marketing strategy behind it, just a simple text message.

My mobile application are targetting iPhone users and Andromeda phone users, here is a video that is reviewing an app closed to the one I have developed, check it out so you can get a clear idea of how your mobile Netflix API application can work and do:

As you can see is a simple but very useful mini-software that cellphone users love to have. Mine is a little more advanced than the one on the video, because it let users add their own reviews, watch trailers, leave comments, easy share with Twitter - Facebook - Myspace - Digg, see movie pictures, buy the movie at Amazon, or see releted ads from Google Adsense.

The web app is getting there making commissions here and there but nothing steady yet... Now remember that I only paid $300 per application, $200 for web design, and $70/year for hosting, which already got back.


Affiliate Marketing and Money Money Online Ideas.

I also recommend you to build applications base on popular web publishing and social tools.
I think you leverage the membership size of these online social networks and web 2.0 tools to make your path to profit a lot easier.

Social or web 2.0 tools like:

- Blogger Gadgets.
- Ning.
- Typepad.
- Wordpress.
- Facebook.
- Twitter.
- Myspace.

Just to mention a few... Find the most asurable for you, if you have the budget don't spot at one, instead create a web application for each of those networks.
