    Many of the people who've failed at MLM have tried to do it as an "online business", which doesn't usually work at all. It's true there are plenty of scams around masquerading as MLM, and that helps to give MLM a bad name among prejudiced and ill-informed people, and it's true that loads of people fail (as in many other forms of business), but MLM really isn't intrinsically an online business model at all. The people who pretend it is are usually people with something to sell. It's easier to be an "expert" and sell "solutions" to struggling network marketers than it is to make money in network marketing. But there are plenty of people who do - you just don't often see them online.

    MLM grosses me out. Most I've seen are almost like weird religions/cults.

    Having an Affiliate Program for your site and products is the best way for traffic in my opinion. You have others promoting for you and you will get sales and reach people you never could by yourself.
    Be sure to have as many affiliate tools as possible, banners, emails, signature links etc..
