    Well, unfortunately the company I was working for, doing Internet Marketing, collapsed. In short, I lost my job.

    So, now i am looking for ways to a.) occupy my time b.) make some extra money.

    I've heard that affiliate marketing is the best way to make money although I've never tried it.

    If anybody is willing to help me out, maybe coach me or just give me tips, that would be great.

    I would go with ppv advertising with CPA networks. Contextual is a much more accepted advertising method now days with them.

    Sorry to hear that.

    My advice is if you completely new to affiliate marketing, I'd highly recommend that you start with free traffic sources such as SEO, article marketing, social marketing etc. Paid traffic is faster but it's more risky.

    If you can create a website where you offer some useful content, content gateways are teh thing to look for.

    If you are totally new to affiliate marketing, I'd suggest you check out Affilorama, they have a lot of free trainings on affiliate marketing.

    You could easily use the skills you have from your old job depending on what they were. If you want me to go through it all with you I can. Let me know or pm me if this forum allows it. I am new here.

    You could join Amazon Affliate program and make money selling Xbox consoles, books, clothing, Kindle, etc.

    It takes time to build sites and traffic, but constant hard work always pays off!
