Affiliate Marketing Is My Map To Wealth.

The dream of earning a fortune online will remain just that for many, a dream. All the information we have at our finger tips these days can lead to one getting very confused while learning the basics of online marketing. Starting an online business can be very daunting to some, but when looked at from a different perspective, there are plenty reasons to get started right away than not at all. Here are but a few popular reasons :

* Been able to spend more time with your family.
* Earn a great living.
* Have no boss breathing down your neck.
* Having the freedom of working from the comfort of your home.
* Choosing your own working hours.
* Owning and running your own business. You are the BOSS!

Two of the main reasons why most of us don't succeed with Affiliate Marketing and soon throw in the towel is because we expect to be making truck loads of cash, and expect to tell our bosses to shove it within a few days of starting out. This is not the reality of affiliate marketing. Most of todays internet marketing guru's have been around for some time ( several years or more infact ) and understand the work and dedication needed to start making an online income.


As a beginner marketer you will come to a cross roads at some point, having to decide whether or not to keep on learning and researching Affiliate Marketing, or start putting what you have alredy learned into action. The truth is, you never stop learning about Affiliate Marketing and the best is to start doing both and NEVER stop. So what would you need to be an Affiliate Marketer? Well, technically you would just need to sign up as an affiliate at one of the hundreds of programs out there,but if you wanted to be a full time Affiliate Marketer and make a living online you would need :


* A PC or Laptop, or have access to one.
* A mobile phone that has internet capabilities is a definate bonus when on the go.
* Internet access.


With these items listed above the world is your oyster ready for the taking. Now you might be asking yourself " laptop... yes, mobile... yes, internet access...yes, now what? ". The answer is simple, sign up to affiliate programs that interest you or fall into your topic of interest. Write good articles or blogs with alot of good content, put your affiliate links into them and Ka-Ching, wait for the sales to tick over. I shouldn't actually say wait, you should be constantly churning out articles or new blog posts as these are your little army of sales people. Each of these sales people are let loose into the world wide web and have the potential to bring home the bacon, big time, maybe even the whole pig if you are lucky or really work at it : )


Do yourself a favour, draw up a daily action plan, stick it to your computer, laptop, fridge, where ever you can see it regularly. And stick to it. Writing might not come naturally to all of us but it will become a habit and fun if you stick it out long enough. There is no greater motivation than seeing your first sale come through and then suddenly it all falls into place. Ping! a light bulb moment. All the hard work you put in will pay off in the end with interest.


So to end off with the secret formula for success in affiliate marketing :

PC + www. + Blogs and articles + affiliate links + repetition = Success

Holding thumbs to all your success
