One way to find relevant places to submit your site to is to search in Google for something like :
crafts "submit url"
You could also try
crafts forum
(obviously crafts would be replaced with whatever your area is).
It is a little time consuming, but usually only has to be done once and that way you can manually approve where you are submitting your site(s) to. If you make a point of spending 20 minutes a day in this way you will have a lot of valuable links and free advertising within a few weeks/months :-)

30 day plan - Internet Profits - Month 2 and Beyond
Month 2 and Beyond: From here on, I only need to focus on a few things...
Continue to joint venture and make deals with other publishers / webmasters to build your network, build your list as well as generate ongoing profits!
Survey your list and find out what type of products they would want in the future. Find out what their main wants, concerns, and problems are. Then, either find the appropriate products or create them yourself, and offer it to them.
Another powerful concept you can introduce into your business is to add residual income streams. These are usually businesses (your own or others) that continue to pay you a monthly income per each customer that you bring in. You bring in a customer one time and continue getting paid for that customer for as long as he/she is with the company.
- Building my mailing list consistently,
- Building a strong relationship with my list members by offering them great value through free reports, articles, and tips, AND...
- Finding and forming new positive and mutually-beneficial relationships with other power players in the field, i.e. joint ventures.
- Offering them great products and services on a consistent basis! These products can either be your own, affiliate products, or products that you buy resell rights to.

30 day plan - Internet Profits - Day 30
Day 30 : Closing Thoughts
In closing, I'd like to say that, the strategies I've offered above may sound simple but they work! If you put in the time and effort, you will see amazing results.
Keep it as simple as you can and continue to improve on the basics.
Also remember that in order to succeed massively in business, you have to separate yourself from all the other players in your field/niche.
You can do this by establishing your uniqueness! Find some way to differentiate yourself from everyone else. You are a unique individual and I’m sure you have some unique qualities in you. At the least, be unique in the way you create/write products, package them, or the level at which you offer customer service.
Finally, keep in mind that in this business (or any other business for that matter), you will get to hear some "no's" along the way. You will meet some challenges and bumps.
Don't take any of it personally. Learn from them and keep moving forward. Action and persistence are really the keys to the castle.
To your Success!

30 day plan - Internet Profits - Day 29
Day 29: Oh heck, I don't know, respond to any emails that came in, watch more orders coming in and...take the rest of the day off!
You've worked hard for the past 28 days and you're starting to see some really great results. It has really paid off.
Take a moment to smile and be thankful for all the great things that are beginning to happen. Believe me, this IS just the beginning.
Between the viral reports, the affiliate program, and now the joint ventures, things should start rolling pretty well.

30 day plan - Internet Profits - Days 24-28
Day 24 - 28: Form Alliances With Other Marketers (i.e. Joint Venture)
Start by contacting those publishers and webmasters who agreed to post your report/recipe to their lists/sites.
Offer them a good percentage of the profits if they help you get the word out about your product. i.e. if they endorse your product to their database of prospects and customers.
Next, contact other webmasters and ezine publishers in your field and offer to join forces with them as well. (You can find these either at the forums or our handy google.com search engine.)
The more enticing, beneficial, and unique your offer is, the more joint venture successes you will create. If they happen to have a phone number on their site, pick up the phone and give them a call. If not, send them an email (or even a postal mail) about your JV offer.
Note: Offer each JV prospect you contact a free copy of your product so they can review it before they decide to joint venture with you.
Important: Each successful joint venture deal can jolt your subscriber rate and your profits significantly! Don't be surprised to see a lot of orders pouring in through joint ventures alone.

30 day plan - Internet Profits - Days 22-23
Day 22 - 23: Send another free report or two out to your list.
Along with the second one, include some information about your new book that you just released! Outline the juiciest benefits of your new product and direct them to your sales page. (Do not try to sell from within the email. Let the sales page do that.)
You can offer your list members a special discount price that no one else is going to get. Make them feel special.
If you already have a paid clickbank account and have decided not to offer resell rights to your book, you can offer each customer who buys your book a chance to become your affiliate. (You can have this information on your thankyou/download page as well.)
If you don't yet have a paid clickbank account, you can offer your affiliate program to them at a later date (after you get the clickbank account set up.)

30 day plan - Internet Profits - Days 19-21
Days 19 - 21: Get a sales letter (and download page, etc.) ready for your new product.
If you have decided to offer resell rights to your book, add the information (and order link) for resell rights towards the end of the sales page as well.
Keep in mind that while you're working on your product and sales letter, your free articles are being spread around with the help of the viral technique we used and your list continues to grow. This also means that you probably have a few sales trickling in for your affiliate product. (This is why I started with an existing product, to get things moving fast and the cash flow coming in.)
Here’s how you can get your sales letter ready very quickly and easily…
Some of the most highly-paid copywriters, don't create their powerful (and expensive) sales materials from scratch. Nope. That would take too much time and too much effort! They simply "steal" brilliant marketing ideas and sales materials that have worked well in the past.
They 'steal' and borrow from tested ideas and ads that have actually pulled in millions of dollars.
They just "recycle" what has been proven to work instead of wasting time on creating new stuff that could very easily fail.
Yes, that also means that some of the best marketers and copywriters can still create projects that fail at times. No one is exempt from failure. That's why they're smart enough to borrow from their past successes - to increase their chances of future successes.
So…how can you use this strategy in your business?
Well, first of all, let me make it very clear that I'm not asking you to copy other people's work word-for-word! That can get you into a lot of legal trouble (and it's also wrong, ethically.) When I say "steal," what I really mean is "model" after a successful ad or site.
Start by searching for the top moneymakers in your field/niche. Just go to the popular search engines, like google.com and search for the product that you're selling.
Example: If you're selling calculators, search for web sites of the top calculator sellers and look at their site. Study the format and layout of their site, study the sales letter. Then, "model" your site after those successful sites.
But, how can you tell whether a particular site is successful or not? If it's a well-known company that is obviously doing very well with their product, you can usually assume they have pretty good sales copy.
However, if you're not sure whether a particular site/salespage is worth copying, simply read it. That is the best test of good sales copy. If by reading the page, it convinces you to buy the product, or persuades you enough to at least consider checking the product out, you can bet it's a great sales letter.
Not only is this the fastest way to create your own sales letter, it is also a sure-fire way of dramatically increasing your chances of success. When you model past, proven sales models, you are usually guaranteed the same or similar levels of success.
Imagine having a sales letter that is converting one out of every 100 web visitors into buying customers. That means, out of every 100 people that visit your site, one of them buys from you.
Now... what if you "stole" a powerful headline from an already-tested, successful sales letter for a similar product and instantly doubled your profits -- overnight! By changing only the headline of your sales letter! And, what if you started changing other parts of your sales letter using the tested, successful sales letter and continued to double, triple, quadruple your profits! (Keep in mind that all these changes barely takes you a few minutes to do.)
Do you think you can handle quick and easy profit gains like these? Hey, if this strategy works for the best in the business, why shouldn't it work for you? More importantly, why shouldn't YOU use it too and see the same kind of immediate profit gains for your business?
The truth is, if you're not using this simple strategy to increase profits for your business, you're just working too hard! And, you're wasting too much time on trial-and-error.
There is an easier, better, faster way to creating profit-pulling sales letters. And I just revealed it to you above. ;-)
Use it, and watch your profits soar -- almost overnight!
