21/05: Affiliate Marketing , Marketing Scams And Words Of Warning

Today, whilst roaming through a couple of traffic exchanges, I came across a couple of places that I thought were worthy of mention and that I'm sure readers will find informative, a little amusing and perhaps, if you are new to the world of the internet fast buck, a little shocking

Whenever I come across little pearls of wisdom I like to do my part to spread the word and Phil Miranda's blog gives a reasonable indication of some of the sharks out there who seek to take you in. We've all been there, tempted by easy money and a quick route to success, but hopefully, sites like this will ensure you keep your feet planted firmly on the ground and save you from the mistakes of others. If you're sensitive about things like this, don't let the very mild profanity put you off - you can learn a lot from Phil's blog.

As an affiliate, it is not always easy to know what to promote online, and, after all, you are just trying to make a few dollars extra. I've certainly been guilty of blindly promoting a few howlers in my time, but fortunately never made a single sale on the vast majority of them, so I guess my conscience is as clear as any can be. That's not to say I'll never do it again of course!

On that note, if you are looking for sound and unbiased advice, in particular about affiliate marketing, a good place to start would be here, at 5 Star Affiliate Marketing Forums. The folks on this forum are helpful and knowledgeable and unlike many forums, the place is not loaded with members' affiliate links! You can save yourself a lot of time and money by visiting places like this.

Those are the two recommended pieces of reading for today - now, go off and do your homework!
