    Build something of value so you can develop a traffic base/audience and the rest is easy.

    The best way to be a good affiliate is to get started. If all you are saying is "you want to be" without getting started then you are wasting your time.

    we can help if you need ideas. you are going to have to be willing to test. anyone can tell you a certain vertical does well or that a certain offer is killing it at xyz, but its all about testing. We can help if you are interested.

    1 do some reading before your start. there are tons of free ebooks around the net that can give you a solid base of knowledge to start with.
    2. value. offer exactly what your visitors are looking for. if you know and do that then you made it.

    I tend to agree that consumers are to a degree at fault and just jump in without reading the fine print, so read a lot first and make a time for it

    I can advice you to find perfect affiliate program to join because if a program is not good you can just waste your time.

    Some tips if you want to increase your affiliate commissions, and you're starting from scratch...

    1. Choose your niche carefully. A rubbish niche takes as much time to promote as a good niche (for example like finance that can give you good commissions plus CPA etc) - so choose your generic niche after a lot of research. There is a book I wrote called NicheBusinessEmpire that can show you how to pick a good niche, if anyone needs to read it pls PM me.

    2. Understand that your affiliate income should be part of a wider income. Why settle for just being an affiliate? True masters of income generate it via multiple sources. Your own site. Your own product. Your own affiliate program. This combination of things will make you rich. And whatever people tell you, it takes years to create these things. It takes willpower, character and patience from those who are just starting out.

    RE your affiliate education, I have an affiliate marketing video course at my theprofessionalmarketer.com site - if anyone wants access, let me know via PM and I'll provide it for you.

    You should learn SEO tactics and marketing techniques to become a good affiliate.
    Its easy to become affiliate. Just sign up and its OK. But you should be able to attract visitors to buy from your links and it needs SEO and marketing.

    If you keep asking what to do and how to start you will get no where. Every vendor/affiliate here has technique that is at least slightly different from the next. Build on your grammar skills and then do some trial and error. Start out with a small goal and take what you learn from the experience and keep building to a bigger goal each time. Don't expect to make $50 a day from your first try. I've seen you post all over the forums asking how to make $50 a day and other very vague questions. If you study the forums it will show in your questions and people will be willing to give you better/more detailed advice. It's hard to explain everything in a quick reply post without being to vague. So spend some time studying and even more time doing.

    Judging by your spelling you should deffinetly outsource the articles and build links yourself since atleast that isn't hard..

    I was thinking of starting out in affiliate marketing. Sounds like a good idea but the thing with me is I get lots of ideas and don't stick them out!
