First Things First - Choosing An Affiliate Program

One thing that I've learned in this internet marketing world is that it's very possible to make hundreds, thousands, even MILLIONS of dollars, sometimes DAILY! I don't know of one day job that has that type of potential! BUT (yes, there's a BUT), as much money as there is to be made, there's also much money to be LOST! If things aren't done correctly in this internet marketing world, you could end up with an empty wallet and bank account! So, I stress to everyone, to do your due diligence FIRST before committing to anything!

Now, when I first got started in internet marketing, I joined an MLM program. BIG MISTAKE! I do not recommend joining an MLM to ANYONE unless you're a prospect recruiting machine! If you're no good at recruiting, then you're destined to fail from the start in MLM! What I recommend is to get into affiliate programs. Most affiliate programs are free to join and only involve getting someone to buy something through your affiliate link, and VOILA! You earn a commission! Sounds easy, right? Although its not that simple, it's a piece of cake compared to MLM programs. So, without further ado, let's get started!

In order to get started with affiliate programs, you will first need to become an affiliate. I suggest you choose a category or niche that you're passionate about. If you love pets, join some affiliate programs for websites dedicated to pets and start from there. Don't know where or how to find them? Just go to Google.com and search for "pets affiliate programs". You can also join an affiliate network and gain access to thousands of programs and products that you can promote as an affiliate. With this option, I recommend ClickBank.com. It gives you access to over 10,000 digital products within 9 different categories and almost 100 different sub-categories. Signup is quick and easy and you can begin promoting products and earning commissions today!

In my next post, I will be discussing ways to promote the products or programs you have chosen. I would like to give you some time to find something you're interested in. So, be sure to check back shortly for my next post on how to efficiently promote to maximize your commissions as an affiliate!
