I'm planning on conducting on-line affiliate marketing soon. i got my homepage ready, now up to finding a hosting and domain name. If any of you are doing on-line affiliate business and has found it to be working effectively, I'd like to hear your story. I kinda need some encouragement here coz I;m new to this kinda stuff. Have you made good money out of it? How long have you been doing it? Some tips for success appreciated! Pls let me know, thanks!

You probably already know what http://clickbank.com has the best opportunities because they do all software and the commissions are fairly high.

I am trying it myself and am just starting. I am going get into public records and see how that works out. Clickbank's programs in that area havde about $20 - $ 25 commission per sale. I'll try advertising on AdWords and see what kind of ROI I get. You should use the paid option of http://wordtracker.com to come up with narrowed keywords if you plan to advertise with AdWords like I am.

If you want, why don't we keep in touch & compare notes?

Be careful with Google Adwords, as you can lose lots of money marketing that way if you have no experience. You also don't need to spend any real money marketing your business online if you are able to build valuable content. I have been an affiliate marketer, SEO for over 7 years and made quite a bit of money online using Google and SEDO, with parked pages. Clickbank does pay high commissions, however, the competition for the same product is really tough for beginners. regards, osagie irowa.
