Promise to Become a Smarter Affiliate Marketer

Affiliate marketing is frequently a difficult business. We need to know a lot more than we thought when we first entered the field. And the learning curve can be so steep that many simply give up.

The most frequent difficulty among failed or failing affiliate marketing enterprises is buying magical, secret plans and not putting them into action to see if they actually work. Some are no more than buyers; they don’t even read the books or watch the videos they buy. I hope that you are among those who will stay dedicated over the long haul, constantly improving your knowledge base and actually applying what you learn by taking action. If not, please just stop reading, because you’ll simply waste money, and your business will fail, regardless.

There are two resources for affiliate marketers that I include in my recommendations. One of those is a new approach to article marketing that automatically forwards your articles to many blogs as well as traditional websites, not just those you run yourself. The system is called MyArticleNetwork. Here I’m going to focus upon one use to which an affiliate marketer can put it, although the prior link in this paragraph will take you to a lengthier description of how the entire system works and may benefit you.

If you use the traditional method of article marketing, you write articles and submit those articles to article directories. With that method, your links are limited to the author’s resource box, usually published at the end of the article. In the new method of article marketing, you can use the much more effective contextual linking, that is placing your links directly within the content of the article, where they are far more likely to deliver targeted traffic to your vendor’s site. Most of the major article directories will not allow you to use affiliate links in your own resource box. With this system, affiliate links are permitted. You can check it out for yourself by visiting this remarkable article marketing system that directly submits unique versions of your articles to blogs and websites in your niche from its list of over 10,000 sites anxious to receive content.

The other resource is a complete educational system established exclusively for affiliate marketers who are owners of various size businesses as well as those preparing for a career in affiliate management. This is a completely revamped reissue of Anik Singal’s famous AffiliateClassroom. Singal earned recognition as one of the young entrepreneurs of 2008 by Business Week, a top publication. Singal has spent the last two years totally remaking this ground breaking program. If you are truly serious about improving your affiliate marketing business, at least sign up to receive the full information.

As I write this, the product has not yet launched, so all you can do is sign up on the squeeze page to be continually updated. Depending upon when you read this article, it is possible that it will have already sold out. Check to see if they have established a waiting list. If so, sign up and hope that a space for you opens.

Anticipating a question that I would ask, yes, both of these have affiliate programs, but you can’t use your own affiliate links to purchase either membership. You must sign up for both prior to gaining access to the affiliate programs.
