Updated on April 9th 2018

I decided to update this article a bit as it was originally written in October of 2016 when Konker first came out.

Since that time there has been some issues with Konker like being shut down due to attacks.

Also, the owner Alex Becker (who you can read about below in the original article) seems to be neglecting the site due to other projects.

BUT there are still ways to make or save money using Konker.

As a seller to make money or a buyer to save money on SEO type services.

Also, there are some good gigs on there so its worth using. You just have to read the reviews an ratings and make sure you use reputable ones.

Ive used the services for some of my business sites like Let’s Hibachi Catering.

So who is Alex Becker, what is Konker.io, and why the heck should you care?

Well first let me start with who Alex Becker is.

Alex is one of the most well know personalities in the world of Internet Marketing and SEO.

Besides being a major influence in the IM community he can also call himself a bestselling author and multi-millionaire.

There are plenty of ‘fake’ people in this Internet Marketing world for sure, but I’ve been following Alex since he first came on the scene a few years ago and believe me he is the real deal.

I have seen him grow from hundreds of thousands of dollars and a modest following to 10’s of millions of dollars and a huge following.

Alex started making money with his own SEO company, then transitioned into training others in SEO (where I discovered him) and then again transitioned into developing his own SEO and Internet Marketing Software.

Most of his popularity came from his entertaining Youtube videos like the one below.

Making a somewhat dry subject like SEO entertaining certainly helped him gain a larger following.

He also wrote this book the ’10 Pillars of Wealth’ that every Internet entrepreneur should read.

He goes into details the mindset and keys to achieving wealth in today’s world.

It’s a great book and if you want to pursue an online career I highly recommend it.

But let’s get back to Alex’s software products that focus on Internet Marketing.

That is where Konker.io comes in.

Konker is an online internet marketing and SEO marketplace.

It is very much like Fiverr where you can buy short term gigs for cheap from a huge marketplace of online providers but Becker’s offerings focus solely on Internet marketing services and products.

This tends to make a better quality of services with more value to real Internet Marketing pros.

So as an Internet Marketer yourself it’s a great place to get services you need fulfilled by other experts or make some money on the platform by offering your own expertise, service or products.

So either order services you need or make money selling services others need, sounds pretty standard right?

Well, that’s not all there is to it.

Maybe the best part about this platform and what makes it unique is you can promote other peoples services and products so that when people order something you automatically get a commission!

That’s right. If someone uses your affiliate link it stores a cookie on their computer and if they place any orders from the site within a specific period it will automatically send a piece of the pie over to your PayPal account.

Difference Between Konker.io and SourceMarket

So Becker originally set up this whole Internet Marketing marketplace over a year ago on something called Source market.

So why did he change over to Konker and what’s the difference?

Well from the looks of it a lot has changed!

SourceMarket seemed to be more of a testing ground to see if there was a viable business idea there before going further.

The service does not even have its own domain name its: ‘market.source-wave.com’ piggybacking off his already well-established SEO brand domain ‘source-wave.com’.

Not only does the new version Konker have its own domain and dedicated branding, but it also has its own beautiful design elements including the logo below.

Here is an announcement directly from Becker on the launch of Konker (from his Facebook page).

KonKer is a freelancer marketplace based on the idea of SourceMarket(which will be combining with it on Monday) that is FINALLY giving the power back to sellers.

So with all the obvious money and effort poured into this new site, it’s clear that it’s here to stay and the goal is to make it an SEO Marketplace powerhouse.

That is excellent news for you no matter what kind of user you are of the marketplace. The more popular it gets the better for everyone.

Buyers: You will have more excellent services to choose from because it will attract the best providers out there.

Sellers: A larger marketplace means more customers to sell your services to and make a profit with.

Affiliates: As the services get better, the site gets more popular, and there are more sellers to choose from, it will be easier and easier to drive traffic (customers) and get those affiliate earnings.

Konker Seller Fees

I don’t believe this is posted on the current Konker site but here is what the original SourceMarket page has.

According to the SourceMarket Support page:

Source Market never touches or becomes involved with any purchase made. All payments go directly from the seller to the buyer without any fee or interaction from Market.”

Well, there is no better deal than free!

But now with Konker that seems to have changed a bit. Now they are charging a small 5% fee for each transaction.

Now that is still extremely low but like I said its hard to beat free. (I am still not 100% clear that SourceMarket did not charge anything.

It does appear to be the case though. I looked at some of my past product sales and I received the full amount of the service with no subtraction).

Here is a picture of the Konker charging structure for sellers.

Again I believe that SourceMarket was offered with no transaction fees because they wanted to not only test the viability of the idea but also build up a strong base of buyers and sellers.

It’s harder to do that when your charging fees.

All in all, it would be dumb to think that they would offer a valuable service like this for free forever.

That just would not make sense for any business.

As you can imagine Becker must have invested a ton of money to get this kind of awesome platform up and going with the end goal of getting a good ROI.

How To Sign Up for Konker

So I discovered something pretty cool. If you already have a SourceMarket account then your login will work on Konker as well. Not only that but it will carry over all your entire profile of past history, work, gigs, orders etc…

I did not need to do anything I just logged on to Konker.io with the same username and password I had from Market Source.

How Does Konker Work?

I will make detailed posts for each in the future but basically, there are 3 different modes to be in when using Konker.

A Buyer, A Seller or an Affiliate.

Here is a basic explanation of each.

Konker Buyer:

How To Order A Gig On Konker:

You want to order and use services on the marketplace. There are plenty of great services you can buy if you own an Internet Marketing company that can save you time and money.

I will post very soon my top 5 favorite gigs on Konker.

To order a Gig simply click on the category your interested in from the top menu.

You can sort by different options of Rating, Newest, Price, Views and Total Orders.

By default its set to ‘Weekly Best Sellers’. Note that a vendor can pay extra to be featured here.

Konker Seller:

How To Become a Seller On Konker:

You want to sell your services or products and make money on the marketplace. If you are a SEO or Internet Marketing Service or product provider this is an excellent chance to get in front of a huge audience. 

After creating an account simply choose “Start Selling” button.

After that is pretty straightforward. You fill out the form to create and publish your Gig. Just make sure you have something solid to offer and you can deliver.

To get ideas on how to write a good AD just look at the top sellers in your niche for ideas. But at the end of the day, the people who do the best offer a great service at a great price and have excellent reviews.

Konker Affiliate:

How To Become an Affiliate On Konker:

This might be one of the coolest things about this service and an easy way to make money. You don’t even need to create a service!

You can promote Konker as a marketplace or individual gigs and make an affiliate commission! All you have to do is send traffic to the Konker and it will do the rest.

Even if you the person using your affiliate link does not buy the product you specifically promoted you still get a commission on any other service they buy if they went to the site using your link.

My Unbiased Review of Konker

I will not keep you in suspense. I love it!! I use this marketplace as a buyer, seller, and affiliate!

As a buyer, there are some marketing tasks (usually one-off stuff) that I just prefer not to do. These are the types of gigs that I typically order off Konker.

Why not have an expert take care of some of those more tedious tasks we don’t have time to do ourselves?

I have ordered all kinds of gigs from simple stuff to entire PBNs. For the most part, I’ve been pleased with the prices and services.

As a seller using Konker is a no-brainer. You are getting access to thousands of people in your target market you would not have had exposure to otherwise! And this is not costing you any marketing dollars.

You are letting the platform and its huge built in audience get the eyeballs for you.

I also love Konker as an affiliate platform and is what I focus on the most (as you can see their are affiliate links in this post your reading now).

The nice thing about the affiliate platform is its so damn easy! You get your link, you promote and magically money starts appearing in your Paypal! For you its really that simple. There is nothing you have to do. No work setting up services and fulfilling orders.

Also even if you promote one service and the person does not buy it, you will still get paid if they browse the site and find other services they like and order.

 My Favorite Konker.io Gigs

I own an Internet Marketing business myself. So I have found some really great Gigs on Konker that I use regularly myself and highly recommend!

---

Keyword Research

This gig is slightly pricey but totally worth it! With a money back gurantee and hundreds of positive reviews its a slam dunk. everyone knows that good keyword research is critical. But its a tedious task and these guys do it all for you and probably better that you can do yourself.

PBN

PBNs are still needed but its hit and miss when you buy from vendors. With a 100% positive user rating (at the time of this writing) this is a top-notch service at an amazing price.

PENGUIN RECOVERY

If one of your clients was hit by Penguin penalty from Google they can be screwed! This service cleans it up for them and makes ranking possible again!

Professional Shopify Site

Want to sell on Shopify but don’t have the design skills?

Don’t let that stop you. For just $200 this amazing service will create you a beautiful Shopify website and online store!
