Don’t assume that the deal is great though. Check to see where the ad will be
placed, then go to the site and see how the ads look. Additionally, go to
Google Ad Planner and research the site to see that the numbers are
accurate, the demographics are what you need on the site, and the age range
is appropriate. Sites with large numbers of under­18 users are almost useless
because they do not have access to credit cards like adults do.

If you choose to use graphic banner advertising, make sure to have a
professional banner created to keep it looking high quality. You can get one of
these for as little as $20 on Elance or other freelancing sites and it takes only
a day or two. Easy as that, you get huge traffic for less than $300 and you
won’t need to worry about things like SEO or PPC advertising.

reach that level of knowledge you need to succeed.

Outsourcing and Delegation

If you ask any one successful marketer in the world what got them where they are
today, they will tell you one thing – time management and outsourcing. You just can’t
get anything done if you try to take it on yourself. Yet, it seems like every time I turn
around, I see someone stumbling through the motions, trying to make money while
doing everything on their own.

And they don’t fail outright. They can get one or two websites up every month or so.
They can tweak a few links and write a few articles a day, and if they’re lucky they
will have a bit of time left over at the end of the week to spend with their families. But
they don’t get to quit their jobs and they definitely don’t become super affiliates, and
here’s why.

Affiliate Marketing Takes Time
It takes a lot of time. It’s why we always say there is no such thing as a “get rich
quick” ​scheme. The quick part sinks you every time. It takes time and it takes
