Affiliate marketing is often a challenging enterprise.  There is much more to learn than most of us anticipated when we first started.  The learning curve is too steep for some, and many simply drop out.

The most frequent difficulty among failed or failing affiliate marketing enterprises is buying magical, secret plans and not implementing them to test 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 committed over the long haul, consistently 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.  I’m sorry for being so blunt.

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 My Article Network.  Here I’m going to focus upon one use to which an affiliate marketer can put it, although the prior link 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 will pre-spin your article so that unique versions are distributed to websites and blogs within your niche from their membership of over 10,000 websites.

The other resource is a complete educational system set up exclusively for affiliate marketers 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.  I strongly urge you to sign up for the complete information before all the spaces are taken.  No joke, this will fill very quickly.

If you see simply a squeeze page, that means that the course has not yet opened.  Fill it out to receive updated information, as it is being launched very soon.  If it has already sold out when you arrive, check for a waiting list, and sign up if one becomes available.  Good luck!

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.
