I tried ClickBank once... I gave up after about a week because I didn't earn anything. I'm fickle like that. But so many people always recommend Affiliate sites, I don't understand why. It seems so hard to make any money through it. But I've decided to give it another go, so forgive me for being a noob, but are there any really comprehensive and trusted guides for affiliate marketing? (free if possible) Thanks.
Your best bet is checking out sites like the one in my signature and reading as much as you can. This forum is probably a good place to hang out around, too.
To earn from affiliate products you will need much specialist in promoting and could effective find those clients in the targeted niche. If you cant do this, no way you will earn
Hmmm really? So there's no point in starting out in affiliate marketing unless you specialize in promoting? That sucks.
I'm new to affiliate marketing as well and just want some basic advice and guidance. I want to promote my site using affiliates, and I'm willing to pay a good amount for each person that fills in a form on the site, but can that sort of thing be done, and how much money do affiliates usually want for that?
Im not sure why people have recommended it to you as an easy way to make money either as imo it isnt, its a job like any other, not a get rich quick scheme and if you are passionate about the industry and prepared to work hard then Im sure you will get far but otherwise it might not be for you, hope this helps
Realistically affiliate marketing is just like being a middle man. You have to be able to sell things or promoting things in such a way to make them sell to the end user.
