Affiliate Marketing Step-By-Step
How To Start Your Affiliate Marketing Business The Right Way
At first sight, affiliate marketing seems so simple. You don’t need your own product, your own sales page, or even your own website. All you need to do is recommend products you like, send people to your affiliate link and rake in the cash.
Some of that is true. You really don’t need your own product and sales page to get your start in affiliate marketing. However, if you don’t do anything at all except for sending people to affiliate links, you’ll leave a lot of money on the table, and your business may be very short-lived, if it even gets off the ground.
