Do Affiliate Sites REALLY work?

    Hi, I'm making my own affiliate clothing website using products from Commission Junction. I just wanna know if a site like this really will make money. I mean .. the entire website contains affiliate products from CJ only. I do hand pick the products I think my target audience will like. But still ... doubtful of this Affiliate thing. I do have one section that is dedicated to "Fashion Inspiration" where I gather celebrity pictures to inspire people. But 90% of the site is completely affiliate items.

    Please give me some comments about it. Thanks.

    If you do it right, then it'll work. Cloak your links, have a nice site structure, use unique content and so on, and you'll be fine...

    Well, "unique content" is the thing. My site is mostly just affiliate products. I don't think you can call them unique content. =(

    What kind of unique content can I add?

    you can handle the unique content by writing articles or reviews about each of the products you are promoting. this is probably the best way to help your site.
