  • What affiliate market workers do is they help companies and entrepreneurs to sell any product that you can think of, from cell phones, clothes, e-books and many more. Choose one product or service that you want to focus on and make sure you it is within your interests so that you’ll enjoy your work and you won’t easily get bored with it.

  • There are two kinds or approaches for those who want to set up an affiliate marketing site. First is the Resource sites, which are focused the “how-to” type of articles, which are then links to banner ads that you have to click for more details. Second, the review sites wherein you write about the products you’ve tried and give a rating to help online customers decide what to buy. And again, you will be providing a link or an ad that will click through sales on your partner’s site. You won’t have to update the content frequently with this one, once a week tweaking will get you through.

    Good post.

    Definitely takes time with any affiliate marketing, must make sure you know your audience (otherwise what is the point of running a blog/website) and most importantly don’t expect to set up a blog and see the money roll in.
