Hi, I am brand new to the forum - I came here from a post that was something like, Are You Wasting Time Blogging? LOL sometimes I wonder...

My affiliate marketing attempts are in the area of marketing, outsourcing and delegating for small business online.

I bought a product or system called Affiliate Silver Bullet - It seemed to make sense at the time, to send potential buyers to interim content that will help them choose to buy...

Has anyone else used this system?

Also I tried to add Text Link Ads to my blog, but after I was approved, and installed the code, then they disapproved me, because I don't have sufficient traffic or links for their standards...I have not started traffic generation strategies yet, since I am still putting together the web portal info site!
That did not seem right to me...

Well I am looking forward to discussions and help, I want to succeed with this venture!

You and 100 Million others. Why not pick a niche you know something about?

WALK THE WALK - then talk the talk. You have to build something worth monetizing BEFORE you can monetize it.

You have to have a TARGET AUDIENCE before you can market to them.

At this point I am no longer amazed that people think they can just throw up a website and add a bunch of links and make money.

In the real world what would you do? Would you lease a store and then fill it full of merchandise and open your doors with no idea how to get people into your store?

Figure out what people want.
Figure out how to get them to your product/service/store

Then go build it and make it happen.

You don't build it first.

It's called developing a business plan.

I thank you for your response. The "silver bullet" system is what I was asking about, but I have not done anything with it yet, it's a way to lead clicks into pre-selling to sales of affiliate products
...

Your reply is that my target market is too large, too competitive? one hundred million others?

I have been working in the outsourcing/virtual assistance/ virtual staffing for small business marketing field for several years. My target market is entrepreneurs, coaches and consultants who need administrative assistance with online business and in general. I connect these people with virtual staff and professionals who provide these services.
I've done extensive keyword research as well.

What do you suggest I do, start a dog-training business?

I also have a client who is a celebrity chef in the "hot foods" southwestern cuisine area - what do you think about that market? I am setting up a membership/ cooking club for her, and digital products. No silver bullet!

thanks for your thoughts
