Advertise Referral Links on Google for Big Discounts

Many companies offer affiliate programs where you can send links to their products and receive either money or credit for anyone you refer. This works great if you can refer many people, but not so much if you have a limited based of contacts. Security expert Brandog Gregg discovered that advertising his referral liunks through Google Adwords earned him a significant discount:


Basically, Brandon paid $12 for the Google ad, got a year's worth of blades for free from all the referrals it earned him, and so his total cost was $12 for the year instead of $108. That's a pretty big savings ($96) for just posting a tiny little ad. Presumably this trick works with other referral programs as well. Give it a shot. You might make some money.
