    Hi
    I have a site with affiliate links, And I was wondering if It was a good idea or if it breaks any rules to market it by marketing it on Youtube. My idea was to create sort of a slideshow of the affiliates products(pictures) then a link to my website which would bring them to the affiliate site if they chose to.
    I was wondering if that was okay to do? or not that good of an idea? or does it break any rules with my affiliate partner?

    thanks

    Its a good idea.Just make some video that attract the people.It can bring you traffic.
    Watermark your url in that video to get visitors.

    okay, great idea with the watermark! I was also just worried if I wasnt allowed to use the pictures from my affiliates website.

    A link to my youtube account is in my signature, take a look at it as an example.

    If that information helped you, then add a point to my reputation - thank you.

    Remember in the video you should say who you are and from what website so people dont rip it.

    okay great ideas and info, I was just wondering if it was okay though to get the pictures from my affiliate partner, I dont want them thinking I am infringing upon them or something. Because off it linking to my site(which in return will lead them to the affiliate products)

    People are banking doing this. I would suggest trying to do a new video everyday to keep people interested

    You can always get your video in on top of the "most viewed" list with the help of FamePath.com

    :)

    and yes, that site is mine. But posting the link is very relevant to this thread
