Affiliate marketing is often a challenging 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.

If you’re reading this, I hope that you are one of those select few who will stay committed over the long haul, constantly updating your knowledge base and applying what you learn by taking action.  The most common problem among failed affiliate marketers is buying magic, secret plans and not implementing them to see if they actually work as promised.  Some are no more than buyers; they don’t even read the books they buy.

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 and traditional websites, not just those you run yourself.  The system is called MyArticleNetwork.  I have described the way it works elsewhere (see that link).  Here, I am going to describe one way that it can be used creatively by an affiliate marketer.

If you write an article for distribution via one or more article directories, your link is limited to the author’s resource box, usually placed at the bottom of the content.  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.  However, this new, vastly improved approach allow you to use affiliate links that will go directly to the vendor, without having to send your hard-won traffic to your own site first.  You can check it out for yourself by visiting this remarkable unique article marketing approach 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 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.  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!

By the way, both have affiliate programs, however you must sign up before you get access to the affiliate programs.
