OK I run a blog on earning money online so I have a tried a number of programs and then reviewed them. It is not very often that I find a program that is worth promoting and giving out to people. Now for my question.
A lot of the programs that I have tried say that I can earn hundreds if not thousands of dollars in a day. Well I came across a program that is great, I loved it and it was well worth the money that spent to try it (it was not affiliant marking, it was how to start your own secretarial busines from home, how to get paid to proof read, how to be a virtual assistant, how to get paid to write reviews, stuff like that). So I decided to promote it, to the best of my ability. I have been promoting the product for about 3 days now and I have had 197 hits off my link, so apparently my marketing is not wrong. However out of those 197 people, only one person purchased the program.
I am not writing this to get sales, I am not even going to tell you the name of the program (unless you send me a PM and then I will be happy to share the review with you). But my question is, do you think that people really make that much money for affiliate work? Is it possible? What is the key to converting clicks to sales?

I suppose even the internet can become a small world when following concepts and ideas. I have been searching for online ways to make a few extra dollars.
I have seen plenty of scams, some legitimate ways to make money, and many many people talking about the subject.
My point being, while I was reading this particular post I remembered seeing a blog several days ago which mentioned some ways one could promote their blog for free. It happens that it is yours. Check your June 17 entry for this year.
You are my only friend here, so be kind.
This is also my first response.

Well I'm kind of new to this online earning craze,but,I think that a lot of people claiming to make big bucks is just a lot of "hype" to sell whatever products or services that they are affiliated with.I do think that with the right know-how that a person can increase his/her earnings.Anything is possible especially here on the web with the right tools I feel that anyone can succeed in this market.The "key" is having what your target audience is asking for or needing.

Well I believe I have the right audience, finding the right product is something that nobody has been able to really explain to me. With all the programs that I have tried, they all have a little piece of the puzzle, but none of them tell the whole story.
This one tells me how to market and that one tells me how to choose a product, but no the right product and that one over there explain.....
Nothing has it all, at least nothing that I have found.
