Why I Love Affiliate Marketing – Part 2
By Jimmy D. Brown of “Affiliatenaire”

Pop quiz time.  What does “HTML” stand for?  Don’t know
that one?  How about this – what does “FTP” stand for? OK,
one more chance.  Do you know how to work with either?

That brings me to the second reason why I love affiliate
marketing…

** You don’t need to build a website **

What scares people more than creating a product is building
a website!

* What in the world is HTML?  Or FTP?
* How much does the software cost?  And hosting?
* How do I upload files?
* Why isn’t it formatted correctly?
* Why don’t my graphics look like the ones the pros have?

If you are a complete beginner, it can be very difficult
(even using templates) to get an attractive website in place.
And hiring a professional to do it fo ryou is out of the
budget for most people.

But, with affiliate marketing, you don’t need to build a
website.  You simply send visitors to someone else’s
professionally designed site through your affiliate link.

SIDEBAR:  Just in case you’re interested, HTML stands
for “hypertext markup language” and is the coding
used to build webpages.  FTP stands for “file transfer
protocol” and is the process used for moving files
from your computer to a website, or vice versa.

Really, in a manner of looking at it, you get to take
advantage of the time and money invested by someone else
to develop the site.  Think about it:  when you promote an
affiliate link, it reflects firstly upon YOU.  You are the
one who is advertising the link, recommending the product,
sending people who have interacted with YOU to the website.

The professional site of someone else really represents
you as the promoter, in the eye of those who have clicked
through your link.

You get the benefits without the bother.

That’s why I love affiliate marketing.

You don’t need to build a website.

Why I Love Affiliate Marketing – Part 1
By Jimmy D. Brown of “Affiliatenaire”

Do you find yourself “starting” to create your own product
to sell online, but never “finishing” it?

One of the things I love about affiliate marketing is –

** You don’t need to create your own products **

Many people find the idea of creating their own products to
be an overwhelming and even paralyzing task.

* I don’t have any good ideas!
* I’m not a writer!
* There’s too much competition!
* I don’t know how to set everything up!
* I can’t figure out where to start!
* It’s too hard!

These are just a few of the valid reasons many people give
when it comes to not creating their own products to sell.
I’m sure with a few minutes of brainstorming, we could come
up with a list of many more.

With affiliate marketing, you don’t need your own products.
You simply promote someone else’s already proven successful
offer for a commission.

And, truth be told, even if you ARE a writer and you DO have
lots of ideas and you CAN figure it all out…

** Nobody wants to create new products all the time **

As good as you may be, you don’t know everything!  Why try
to create a product on every topic imaginable in your
market when you can earn just as much money by simply
promoting someone else’s really good offer as one of your
profit streams?

That’s why I love affiliate marketing.

You don’t need to create your own products.

So What Is Affiliate Marketing Anyway?

Affiliate marketing is basically a win-win scenario where a company like Amazon pays you to promote their products.

They’re already spending millions ofdollars a year on advertising and often times it’s not very effective. So why not take some of that money and use it to pay people like us to do the dirty work for them?

Well that’s exactly what the affiliate program intends to do.

Once you create an affiliate account with Amazon you can pick a product and begin promoting it in any way you choose.

Every time a product gets sold as a result of your blogging or website efforts you’ll be compensated anywhere from 2-8% depending on the product niche.

The best part of the whole process is that once you do it for one product, repeating the procedure over and over again becomes a cinch.

In a matter of days you could be promoting hundreds of products and raking in anywhere from 2-8% of the purchase price each time one is sold.

So what are you waiting for? You’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain.

To get started just go to www.amazon.com and scroll down to the very bottom. Where it says Make Money With Us, click on Join Associates.

From there you’ll have to fill out several forms but in a matter ofseconds you’ll be a member of Amazon’s affiliate program.
