Do you get money from Affiliate Marketing?

I have tried affiliate marketing but I find myself skipping to program to another program. I feel like it`s not for me. The only way I make money online is through writing articles online and watch the performance earnings increase. I wonder why many people said they got a lot of earnings with affiliate marketing. Do you have true experiences about it? Give me some pointers I might try it again.

I think you can make money with affiliate marketing but you need to know what you are doing. I also feel that if you would like to know more about it I suggest going to youtube and watching videos on the subject. Youtube has a lot of videos about it and I feel it would be the best way to learn more about it. Also I feel that in order to make the big bucks with it you need a website too, this is my opinion on it and I hope it helps you in someway. Happy mylotting and have a good day.

i want to try that program but i am not good in getting referrals, its like the whole thing is about filling up your downline. if i would try again affiliate marketing, i will join to someone who can support me all the way and will work for its downline also.

I think you need an ebook for that. Because if you want a human who could help you they wont sustain. They want to work as hard as well to get the money they want. If only we can get focussed but of course we can`t. We have jobs, we have friends, family, ourself, our bfs hehehe...so we cannot totally devote ourself. I read something about pressure from online money making. They said it is better to make it as a hobby than a business. I think so too.

thats hard for some people who rely on online money making.. if you really need money and you treat online money making as a living, then thats where the pressure starts..

I make money with several affiliate programs. They are simple, just put a link on your site or blog and forget about it , sometimes I write a post on my blog about something that the affiliate program is offering and make money that way. I also have a blog about making money with affiliate programs and I make money everytime someone signs up with them programs.

I agree with WebMann, as you really need a decent traffic to make money from affiliate marketing. This is because you need to build a reputation before your readers can trust you with the product you are selling. In addition, buying and using the product can help a lot. In this way, you can share your experience about it and your product review will be more convincing. Lastly, I don't advise anyone to sell hot products that are not related to your niche. And yes, I made some money from affiliate marketing but through on my blog alone. I explore places such as social networking sites and find people whom I think can be my potential buyers. By the way, I found this post so useful, and I hope it can also help you. The title is Why You Are Not Making Money from Selling Hot Products - http://www.notmakingmoneyonline.com/archives/why-you-are-not-making-money-from-selling-hot-products.html Hope that helps.

Same here that is why I transferred to HYIPs. I get an OK money there but I am not contented. I always thought I could do better. I also don't spend something I cannot afford to lose and you know how risky HYIPs are. I had a huge money scammed in megalido.com months ago and I am still asking help with my payment processor to help me with the refund. Affiliate marketing is like the safest big money earner online but it's just kinda overwhelming to get the tactics.

I tried affiliate marketing and skipped from program to the other. A lot of the switching was my commitment to the program. Now before I start anything, I try to work out a 90 day plan and see after which time, how much have I or will I earn. I learned that as I look at this as a business, as if someone was paying me and or the other way around, my mind is better or shall I say focused.

hwo did your 90 days plan go? did you get returns yet? i had a thought about the 90 days plan before I read an ebook like that before. I am asking some motivations on how to do and results from people like me who have been wanting to strip the internet with success and earning money at least a consistent $500 a month. That is my target now actually $500 a month and then increasing. I am earning $150 a month now but I felt that i am stuck. I wanna move on.

Nope. I have yet to earn anything from affliate marketing. Maybe I am doing it wrong. Maybe I am not doing enough. But I certainly am not making money from them programs. So I give up trying to make money via affliate marketing. Like you, writing articles and posting information on blogs and social forums are bring in better money than any affliate marketing programs I have ever been on.

i read up about affiliate marketing and as one who don't really believe it works. unless you have a website that super many people goes to view everyday otherwise it's no point. The selling article thing seems promising. Maybe I should go take a look.
