One of the biggest mistakes that new affiliates make is choosing a product that no one buys. That’s the main reason that newbie affiliates have high failure rates with their affiliate marketing campaign.
As you probably know, when you don’t see results for your efforts, you can get frustrated very fast, and stop trying to do what you set out to do.
This is why my decision is to instruct you in choosing a good product to promote and that it will be profitable to you.
The first thing to look for in a product is whether it is a need or a want. When someone is in need for the product you’re promoting he will buy it no matter what the quality of it is, and sometime no matter what the price tag is.
Why would they pay for it?
Because you hold the answer that solves the problems that they are facing right there before them, in your hands. That’s why I recommend all my fellow affiliates to promote products that people need, and that’s the way to online fortune.
So how you can make sure that people actually need your product?
Choose products from the Health&Fitness category for example. Those people are desperate for a change in their life. Some of them are looking for a weight loss program that they can follow and get thin, while others are looking for to get six pack abs to show off and get more girls.
Another category that you can go for is the Adware&Spyware software. Adware and spyware are infecting computers everywhere and many folks are willing to pay hefty sums to save their computer’s data. Some have family pictures and others have some important documents that they don’t want to lose and they will pay a fortune to get rid of the spyware on their computer.
Can you see that selecting a product that people are in NEED of will greatly improve your chances of making sales. You should go for the desperate buyers and not those who are looking to have fun with their product. You may soon be generating sales should you decide to adhere to this theory.

How You Can Use Articles On Your Blog To Grab Free Traffic From The Search Engines
Websites need visitors and probably the easiest (and cheapest) methods of achieving this are with article marketing. You can place these articles i.e. blogs, directories, social networking sites etc. which will help visitors who read your article find your website by using back links. Many places accept articles without any charge but they should be sites with a good page rank, it doesn’t take to long before the visitors begin to arrive at your site. Acceptance of content at sites like this is a little like a ‘thumbs up’ to you as well and can be of great benefit, By improving your standing, you will by default, also improve the level of trust people have for you.
Article marketing carried out regularly can bring fantastic rewards as people begin to see you as an expert in your field. Convincing people of your knowledge in certain areas ensures they will always trust what you write. The purpose of all this is to increase your credibility with the various search engines, by default this will increase the number of ‘organic’ visitors you receive that have searched for something your site has information on. If there are many websites which link with your website then it increases your website ranking which in turn boost up your traffic gaining. more importantly, none of this traffic actually costs anything at all!
A number of links to other relevant sites can be placed in the body text (not too many) when using article marketing. The purpose of good articles is for people to use them on their site, with each having the links to your site contained in them which all helps the ranking. Unfortunately you cannot normally expect your site to be listed straight away with the search engines. During this period, the best thing to do is continue submitting your articles to a many popular sites as possible and write more because this can speed the process up.
The content on your website is what brings the search engines and hence visitors so therefore part of your article marketing campaign should be to continually add fresh content to your website. Bear in mind that when people visit your site, they are unlikely to want your product without learning more about it. The more truthful you are about what you are doing, the more visitors will appreciate it providing the information you supply is relevant to their search. It is at this point that the sales promotion can be used. Doing it this way ensures the visitor is not mislead and is happy to be shown what you are selling. It is this sort of method that stops people from cancelling their order a few days later.
It is this type of article marketing ensures visitors are always coming to your site, do not think for one minute that this is will be a success if it is only done the once! The aim is to have other website owners link their site to yours in addition to using your content as well, Having your article duplicated on other people’s sites can bring a great deal of traffic. There are no charges to article marketing and is still the number one way to get traffic to your site, All you have to do is ensure your content is ‘on topic’ and unique to have constant visitors.

I have a website, creditcard processors (2checkout, ikobo, paypal, shareit) and software products.
I want to work with advertisers (I tried bidvertiser and know adwords), affiliates, resellers or marketers on a profit sharing basis. So basically I can sell them the licences (product keys) as they resell the product to customers or I can process payment and give them the finders fee. They need to promote (seo,ads,maillists,better web site?) and actually sell the products to obtain any money.
How to accomplish this business model, which companies to work with ?

Are we allowed to do affiliate marketing on blogger.com?
M not too sure about that cos one of terms of agreement seem to say we are not to use it for any commercial purposes.
Also Word Press explicitly forbid it.
Below is copied from Blogger Terms of service:
7. No Resale of the Service. Unless expressly authorized in writing by Google, you agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, trade, resell or exploit for any commercial purposes (a) any portion of the Service, (b) use of the Service, or (c) access to the Service.
Doesn’t it sound like its use for commercial purposes is prohibited? I have heard some instances where accounts were terminated for suspicion of being SPAM blogs??!! i.e blogs used to direct traffics to other sites.
This is from Wordpress:
And here are some examples of blogs that are banned from WordPress.com (all of these fall under the general heading of “spam blogs”, or splogs, and we will be deleted as soon as we find them or they get reported):
* Scraper blogs: Blogs that take content from other blogs and re-publish it without permission (this is sometimes called scraping). If a blog contains all or mostly stolen and unoriginal content, it’s gone!
* SEO blogs: Blogs that are written for search engines instead of humans. These blogs are dedicated to trying to fool Google and other search engines into ranking them highly. WordPress.com is not meant for this type of activity.
* Affiliate marketing blogs: Blogs with the primary purpose of driving traffic to affiliate programs and get-rich-quick schemes (”Make six figures from home!!”, “20 easy steps to top profits!!”, etc). To be clear, examples like people writing original book or movie reviews and linking them to Amazon, or people
