If you need extra income, you should consider doing affiliate marketing…
Monetizing a blog can be difficult, especially when you’re just starting out. How can you tell what your readers actually want?
This was my greatest challenge when I launched my blog.
Prior to the launch of my blog, I had read several e-books and posts – and the authors advised that I monetize my blog with affiliate offers.
As a newbie, I followed the laid out rules. I even filled my sidebar with affiliate banners and started blogging.
Day in and day out, I’d log into my clickbank account, hoping to see $50 – $100 in sales but nothing happened.
I was fed up and decided to take a better more logical approach. It was when I started promoting health affiliate products.

Its all about being natural when marketing to customers. However, planning and researching the customers’ need will make the Five DON’Ts to hold.
The Five Don’t discussed by Michael is straight to the point. Trying to hard sell the customer or subscriber is a good point.
