    Do you all think contents is a must for Internet marketing? I'm doing affiliate program without any contents site now, do you think this is a proper way? Please comments. Thanks

    content is a must for internet marketing, google likes text, unique text pages are very good for your seo campaign.
    But i think that sometimes you can offer a product and drive ppc trafic to it and you wont need as much content as seo would need.

    Do you mean you have NO content on your site and you're making money? are you direct linking?

    The 'proper' way (according to google) is to create a site and user experience that everyone enjoys! The proper way according to my bank account is to cash in as much as possible.

    Try making your own digital info product or software, with its own affiliate program. Then you can make content for your site in the form of blog posts and such, get some free traffic from search engines, and then sell your visitors your own products.

    Yes, as they say, "Content is King."

    The question is, how is affiliate marketing with no content working for YOU? Hopefully, you have built a nice size list for yourself.

    YES IT IS.

    IT IS NOT.

    Write contents that market your products.

    Teohcl, it is not clear what site you have. If you could provide more details about your company/site, that would be more helpful.

    You need content, in most circumstances. If you have a list of emails - you need a good newsletter written to SELL the product to that list.

    Content is King, after all.

    Assuming you're trying to attract people to a website on which you can sell an affiliate product - then yes, I think you'd need content, esp. of SEO is important to you.

    But you CAN sell affiliate products without a website at all - in an email list, for example, or by using video.

    Definitely. Good contents drive natural, repeated traffic, even backlinks. If people find your site informative, they will visit your site regularly and even link it naturally.

    Only way with no content is PPC if you want some results. SEO traffic without content just dont work, even with mile long keyword tails.

    Content is a MUST (and I don't just refer to articles). You need to offer value BEFORE trying to sell something.

    If you want to get noticed then you must have content so that spiders will like you.
