I have been into affiliate marketing for awhile now, with limited success in the beginning. I have, however, been able to learn from some of my mistakes. When it comes to affiliate marketing, obviously the product has to have value. Another thing I have struggled with is promoting product vs. service, although either can be successfully promoted if we advertise correctly. But the biggest problem I have ever dealt with is successful advertising. From Adwords to blogging and everything in between, it is absolutely the most complicated and frustrating part of marketing. With everything there is a roadblock, limited budget means limited exposure, large budget with wrong placement means limited exposure, and so on. I am sure you know what I am talking about. I have been involved with so many scams and paid for so much free material in the beginning of my marketing career, its embarrassing to even try to count. It has paved the way for me to be able to weed out the scammers and empty promises that are flooding the internet today. Do a search for "make money online", "work from home", "online business", or just about any term that can be associated in any way with online marketing and watch the stacks of cash, Ferrari's, and gobs of testimonials pop up. Not to mention the affiliate review sites, I have a real irk with those.
In my honest opinion, any sites with words like "automated income", "get rich quick", etc, are a no no. I have wasted countless hours and dollars on sites like this and have never got rich or broke even for that matter. Most information on these sites is available for free online anyway. It actually boils down to picking a product, advertising, and watch money roll in, its that easy. Yea right, there is so much more to it than that. Your advertising has to be seen and clicked, your product has to be valuable, it has to be bought, budgets have to be made, and so on. It is not easy and I needed help, finding and listing advertising sites that work, having more experienced people to talk to, a professional website, a good product, you must have these things before the first dollar is made. It's quite discouraging for the new marketer. There are free resources out there, one I have found is Internet Income University, it's free to join. This site has amazing free resources, forums, affiliate advice from experienced marketers, and something they call a F.A.S.T. start program. The program is a step by step way to succeed. Obviously success in marketing is possible, I just like a little help from time to time. Thanks for reading and good luck. If you are interested in this resource, click on the link below.
