Sorry for the title, I don’t really create great titles and I don’t know how to. 😉 So tomorrow, I’ll be back in class so more probably the next post will be a little sooner. Today I am going to say something about affiliate marketing. No, I won’t define nor discuss the basics of it or maybe even tell you something useful about it. I just am going to tell you guys that affiliate marketing can make you filthy rich. Yes I know you guys already know it but for some people out there who haven’t tried affiliate marketing yet then maybe you shouldn’t.

When I have first entered this I though it works on a CPC basis but it does not (I know I’m a fool). Well I am just surprised that many people do not actually know that affiliate marketing is a very lucrative business. Maybe you feel guys like Shoemoney and Chow and some others make big bucks blogging but the truth is they make even more and more being affiliates. I myself is an affiliate. I use many types of affiliate program and I suggest you too. In this field you really have to learn a lot and being creative helps you more. But to be specific I so much like Commission Junction and PepperJam. They have made great conversions for me. If you are wondering what product am I promoting, I embark a lot in a very easy way of dating. Ringtones are great but the market was very competitive now and dating wasn’t that much.

So how do you make money w/affiliate marketing? Two things come to my mind when asked about this question, outsourcing and leveraging (go and see wikipedia). I can say that I learned those things along the way. I’m not saying I’m earning a lot from affiliate marketing but what I say is aff.marketing has been my biggest money maker… Basically I start by promoting products, then buying about 30 domains and then hire someone to make me a salespage. That’s it, then some adwords (I highly recommend Aaron Wall SEO Book, the best by far!) Last words, if you are gonna go and try affiliate marketing then patience is the key. Learning is your main weapon and failure will be your guardian angel(i know it’s corny).

Btw, tune in for the next few days because I would be giving an ebook about how a newbie can make $500 per month on affiliate marketing. It costs i forgot and I’m not really sure if I want to share it for free. 😉

So as I am writing this post, I have remembered how many of my friends were so much fascinated about creating a blog and living a majestic life out of it. And of course like many people, they were disappointed to see that the money isn’t really easy. I admit that I even thought it would also work that way and feel I can get rich online. Btw, this is not my first blog. I have a basketball site that I am really writing a lot because I’m a big fan of basketball.

So getting back to making money online, I think it’s quite simple. It’s NOT for everyone. That’s the bitter truth. When I started the venture of making money online, the first thing I did was the adsense thing. So, literally I became impatient. I clicked my ads, encourage my friends to do it thinking that the best search engine won’t caught me. I got $136 and was banned even before getting it. That’s just one of the super duper many things that have flopped so bad for me.

Right now, I’m making money through affiliate marketing. Not really big just about $200 a month. And looking back to the past, I’ve realized many things. That’s why making money online is not for everyone. Sure you’ll find stuffs there that says “build a blog and make money” or “get rich quick”, but the truth is most people just sell those craps to make money themselves. Just put my case here, I am a great basketball player (at least that’s what i think) and I believe I can be successful someday. So why its not for me? Simple, because I’m a weak man physically and the world is just so competitive that I can’t even get the opportunity.

How about you? Do you think you can succeed with what you’re doin/dreaming?
