Staying focused on affiliate marketing

It has been a few days since I have taken the time to write on this blog. It is so hard for me to stay focused on one thing. Affiliate marketing is my main focus. That is what caught my interest when I first started doing research on Work From Home ideas.  My website is getting very close to being finished and ready to advertise. I just have so much to learn and I get sidetracked very easily here lately!

How important is a mentor in Affiliate Marketing?

I have been reading a lot about the Leaders Club. I receive the weekly newsletter from them and have learned a lot from it. Affiliate Marketing, Working from Home, Earning money with Blogs, whatever it is, without knowing exactly what to do,where to begin, what to do next and so on can be a big waste of time. Fortunately the TOPS program has a wonderful forum with people that really help, as well as excellant training. SFI has a very informative website with resources of all types too, but without action, no money will be made! Mentors, leaders whatever you decide to call them are there to guide you especially if you are a newbie, which I am. Sometimes a little encouragement and guidance one on one might just what it takes to get the ball rolling…….

Affiliate marketing and blogging?

Everywhere I look I am finding something about blogs, blogging, making money with your blogs. Wow I thought affiliate marketing was an inexpensive way to get started making money online, but for sure so is blogging. There is a PayPerPost website that is easy to sign up for and get paid for each blog that you submit. Now if I can figure out how to get started at that, why not?? I first saw this on Lynn Terry’s website. She has so much information on her site, whether you are a beginner just wanting to learn about internet marketing(selling your own products) or affiliate marketing. I was shocked to see some of the amounts that some bloggers have made. I just have got to really work on focusing on what I am doing. I wish that I was a sponge and could just soak up all of the information that is out there and so freely shared. First things First, that is what I need to do! I am working on getting my website for the Tops program up and going where I can start to advertise and make money on that. After that, who knows maybe I can find a niche to blog about that would qualify for the PayPerPost, just today Jean!

The best program online

I was just thinking about all I have read and researched, downloaded, ordered etc on this affiliate marketing journey of mine, and thinking about the best program to join. It is without a doubt TOPS Online Profits. Erich Winnecke is very sucessful online and is so very generous to share his knowledge to the people that join his program. He does not advertise that he is going to make you rich in a week, just tells you like it is. IF you have a desire and are willing to follow the program he offers, being a successful work from home mom, dad, nanny or anything else it possible. When I put Work From Home in the search box, I saw his name on more than one occasion, and the more I read about him it made my decision easier as to where to start. He has been on the top at SFI another program that I signed up for several months before I decided to get serious about earning money from my home computer. It is indeed an excellant program to, especially the fact that you can start without pulling out your credit card and if you are willing to put some time into the free advertising methods that are out there, you can actually make money. When I joined TOPS, SFI was one of the affiliates that Erich has in his program to start so I was a little ahead of the game!When I look at the main reason I joined TOPS is the support, honesty, and integrity of the members of the forum. It is unreal to think there are so many knowledgeable people out there so willing to help someone they do not even know become a success! I feel so thankful. Take a look! TOPS

Affiliate Marketing, help from real people!

Another day in my journey in affiliate marketing! I am what I consider a newbie to this, affiliate marketing, working from home and blogging. One of the things that helps me the most to continue to learn is finding real people online that are willing to help by sharing their knowledge. Lynn Terry and her Self Starters Weekly Tips forum is one of those people. I find a lot of hope reading on her forum. I subscribed to her weekly tips newsletter. She is where I someday want to be, working from home! My website is getting closer and closer to being up and going and I am excited about. I can’t wait to be able to put my link to it on here!

Affiliate programs that are free to start!

Well here I am again, this is actually the third time I have been on here to write. The second page I wrote disapeared and I was never able to get it back…..I am learning!

I was thinking about when I first put the words in the search box “Work From Home”. I had no idea there would be so many pages listed. I had signed up for a Data Entry From Home site and sent the recommended $20.00 by Paypal only to receive the same thing that I had read on the internet, and I am supposed to put ads out to sell this info for $20.00 and that is how I would make money…no way, this was a joke. I waited a few days to contact the person that sent me the “knowledge” only to find out this was no longer a good email address. Ok I need to be careful now and get away from the scams..

Millions are making money from their home computer and you can too! I keep finding this same ad over and over. This looked much more official than my first try. But can I really start anything FREE?? Yes I found out I could! This was actually a real and legitimate company that offers training, resources, FREE websites and FREE to start. I joined this company, started putting some ads out on some free ad forums and I actually got a check the second month! $14.37 was a start! Especially for not spending any money, just using a little of the time that I played on the computer doing nothing, I was now looking for free advertising sites and placing ads. After reading the bullentin board and for this company and seeing that these were real people and they had written some good ideas for me to try, I was getting more and more excited! Now I have earned a total of about $88.00 but this is just the start. There ARE affiliate programs that are free to start, and yes you can earn money.

I am stopping here, just in case I lose this blog too!
