Collin LaHay is the youngest Top Affiliate Challenge contestant on the show at 18 years of age. His journey to financial freedom started in October of 2006 when he received his first online marketing income - a check for $125.26 - from an online advertising agency.

His eyes opened to the possibilities of the internet, he quickly moved on to buying, optimizing, and selling established web sites. Over the past months, he has taught himself search engine optimization techniques as well as creative free web site marketing strategies. His skills position his web sites for long term exponential traffic growth.

LaHay's success has been so pronounced that he earns his entire income from the internet now. Despising the constraints of a 9-5 job, the internet allows Collin to work when he wants to and gives him the freedom to continue increasing his income month after month.

He currently shares all of his web site marketing techniques at his blog, sharing what other experts prefer to keep to themselves. By providing this unusual value to his readers, LaHay's blog readership continues to grow.

Collin will stop at nothing short of mastering the affiliate marketing industry, and he plans to use his unique techniques to dominate the competition on Top Affiliate Challenge.
