Find Profitable Niches

At first an affiliate marketing career is usually very slow, not because the kind work you do but because many people tend to give up if the money doesn’t start to flow in the first few weeks. This is for sure the biggest and most common mistake beginners make and this is the reason why most people never make money on the internet.

So many of my subscribers usually ask me how much money I’m making because some of them are not making enough even to cover their monthly expenses. In fact I’m making over $15,000 /month. A lot of money can be made on the internet but the newbie’s shouldn’t take it the way most of them take it; they should take it like a real business.

This is how it really works, You begin slow, then you make a few dollars a week, then rinse and repeat and you make a little bit more, and you go building your business and the number of sites you own and so on. Then your income will start increasing slowly and steady

The Big money will not pour into your bank account like magic and you can’t spend every dollar you make on bills. You need to grow your business by re-investing what you make. That is the reason so many people fail on the internet, they think about the internet as an ATM machine and if they don’t see money flowing in the first few weeks they give up.

The most important rule when picking associates to push on your website is to choose products that may be of relevance to those that would likely visit your niche site.  Otherwise you will be promoting a product to a group of people who do not even want nor need it.  If your niche internet site targets parents of young children, then promote baby products.  If you niche site targets gardeners, then promote gardening products.  If you promote baby products to gardeners, you are almost certain to not turn a profit irrespective of how much money the affiliate company offers for a sale.

5.  Believing the hype

And yes, I do mean the hype promoted by your own program. Those income projections that every program makes are just that, projections. You can make that much. Will you within your first few months of the program? Probably not. Look at this as a long term investment in your future, not a way to get rich quick.
