Setting up Your Links to
�Abundant Earth
Congratulations!
Your now an Abundant Earth Affiliate Rewards Program Associate.
According to the industry, only half of all affiliate program participants ever bother to place an affiliate banner on their web site, let alone engage in all the other important marketing efforts to make their web
site, and their affiliation, a success.
Our Affiliates are Different
At Abundant Earth, our affiliates are different. You affiliated with Abundant Earth because you are committed
to more than just profits. You have a message to get out. You are passionate about your beliefs and concerns. Abundant Earth affiliates don�t fit the norm or the industry averages. Our affiliates make more because
they give more to everything they do. Let us work together, and together we�ll make a difference.
Your Business is a Garden
Think of your affiliate business as you would an organic garden. Just as in gardening, your efforts today will
pay off tomorrow.� If you put much of your energy into building your soil or �tilth,� your plants will grow strong, healthy, vibrant and less likely to be attacked by insects or ravaged by disease. Likewise, if
you focus your attention on building and promoting your web site now, you will eventually reap the rewards of your efforts. As we all know so well, we reap what we sew.� Plant the crops you intend to harvest
tomorrow, by preparing the soil and sewing the seeds today.
The Promise of �Get Rich Quick�
Most affiliate programs imply that you will instantly reap huge profits when you join their programs, and
in rare cases, this may be true. However, the truth is more like our gardening analogy. There is no instant gratification in gardening, and you shouldn�t expect it here, except in some rare cases. We wish it was
different, because we know instant rewards reinforce your efforts. Industry statistics suggest that many of you will quit before ever starting, and many more will quit soon after starting.� We want you to
succeed, and the only way for you to do that is to put your best foot forward consistently, month after month after month. We promise you that with the right knowledge, the right effort and the right mind, you will
be eventually be rightfully rewarded. Take our word for it. Planting a seed in poorly maintained soil, and then never watering your plant, will yield you very little. By contrast, building your soil, planting your
seeds, attending to your growing crops, encouraging beneficial insects and wildlife, and nurturing symbiotic guilds (multiple organisms arranged to benefit one and other) will pay off. Treat your affiliation like a
garden, and before you know it, you�ll be enjoying the benefits of a healthy harvest. After all, �genius is...98% perspiration!�

The Technical Stuff:
All of our graphics below are the property of Abundant Earth. They may not be modified in any way without prior written permission from Abundant Earth. If you
would like to create your own custom banner, please submit your banner to Abundant Earth for approval.
Procedure for Using Banners and Text Images:
- Choose an image and click on your right mouse button. You should now see a list of options including the ability to �copy� or �save� the image to a file.
- Go ahead and save the image to a file on your hard drive. Name it appropriately, and with your HTML or web editor, add the image to your web site.
- Select and highlight the banner or text image in your editing program (or write the HTML) and hyperlink the image using the following information:
If you prefer to write your own HTML, here is the code you will need to use. Be
sure to substitute �mycompany� with the name we e-mailed to you.
http://www.abundantearth.com/shopsite/sb/ref.cgi?name=mycompany&storeid=abundant</a>
If you would like to target a new browser window from your site (especially recommended for framed sites), use the following code:
<a
href="http://www.abundantearth.com/shopsite/sb/ref.cgi?name=mycompany&storeid=a bundant" TARGET=NEW > [Your link text or graphic goes here]</a>
Here is an example of what your HTML code will look like for the following site:
Site Name: YourSite
Banner Name: trialbanner.gif
Banner Image Copied to: http://www.yoursite.com/media/trialbanner.gif
Simply remove �TARGET=NEW� in order to create a standard link. If you do not include the
�BORDER=0� command, you will likely see a border around the pictue or banner image.
