    This is a GREAT article and I love the way it's written. It really has important points for affiliates that want to excel in this industry and surpass the level of achievement that have already reached. Reading and implementing these 10 tips will be a great way to prepare for the coming year. This was written by the trainers over at Affiliate Classroom, one of the leading places to learn and grow in this business.
    I especially like secret #10! Go read them all then come back and discuss it.

    Everything there is 110% true. Great article Linda!

    There's one other thing though that i think is missing...And it's vital...Super-affiliates invest money in their businesses. If you think you'll make money from affiliate marketing without spending any - don't bother...Really...All the super-affiliates I've spoken to - and it's quite a few now - all invest considerable money...as well as time...into their businesses.

    I don't know what you would consider a super affiliate... but I am getting 5k from one network and I don't spend a cent on advertising or any other investment.

    Of course, it took loads of work to finally get to this point. But it only proves that it is possible.

    Agree with you about investment - wether its time or money. Most super-affiliates invest money because they days of being able to rake in money without having a quality site and content are gradually disappearing into the history books.

    I know some people on these consider buying a domain name or website for anything more than $50 to be exhorbitant, but you have to be willing to invest to make money.

    I'm happy to spend, for instance, $1000 to have a logo made because I know its value and the revenue it bring in the long run.

    You need to spend of money on these affiliates to make money. About 85% of people I send traffic to are affiliates.

    hmm .. the article is somehow quite true .. but what is making a difference between the top and bottom one is a bit of luck.

    I, had only a teaspoonful of luck.
