There are many of good sources that can tell you a great deal about how to establish an affiliate marketing business, but there aren’t many places where you can find someone to do some of the hardest work for you.  Well, I may not have found a long hidden source of free labor, but I know that I have unearthed what is probably nearly as good.

I sell my own digital and physical products, but a sizeable chunk of my income still comes from affiliate marketing, where I began.  My online business is made up of a number of traditional sites and blogs.  I am a firm supporter–make that “enthusiast”–of SEO for traffic generation, but that is a long term process; good search results take time to build.  For some of my affiliate marketing, I have tried PPC, but rarely have I had success over the long haul. 

Consequently, like many in affiliate marketing, increasing traffic at a reasonable cost is one of my most vexing challenges.  It is particularly difficult for those times when I discover a new affiliate product but for which none of my sites are well optimized.  How do I send my traffic to the vendor’s site?

I use the same, standard approach that most of you reading this use; I take them first to my own site, where I ply my skills of subtle persuasion.  I hope they’ll click the link that will take them to the spot where they might actually buy the product that will earn me my pittance.  I have always wished that I could cut out part of the middle of that process.

I use article marketing extensively for all of my sites.  I employ that strategy primarily for its SEO value but also for the direct visitors that are sent my way.  However, especially for an affiliate marketer, there are two major problems with traditional article marketing.  First, the major article directories don’t allow contextual links within the body of the articles.  Instead the links stand alone in a section that they call the author’s resource box, but which screams, “Commercial!” to our readers.  Second, the major article directories do not allow affiliate links or even links to redirected pages or domains.

At last there is a content syndication service thall allows both contextual linking and inclusion of direct affiliate links.  Yes, you will be able to join the affiliate program of the amazing My Article Network once you become a member of the service.

My Article Network is like a consortium for article marketers and content publishers.  (That link will let you know what I have to say about it on one of my sites.) 

It would be smart of me to let the sales page of My Article Network persuade you on its own.  I’ve been using it for less than two months, and I am a complete convert to the system.  In fact, I even set up four new niche blogs to make use of the free content that my colleagues provide.  {(Go ahead.  Click the link, you know you want to.)(Do it!  You know you want to click the link.  Come on…don’t you think I deserve it?}

The fuel that drives Internet business is accurate information.  Only when data or recommendations are accurate and relevant does it become useful to the entrepreneur and become part of the essential set of knowledge.

For anyone who is starting an affiliate marketing business, this fundamental concept is particularly important.  For those entrepreneurs, the learning curve is imposingly steep.  However, even for the long established and highly successful affiliate marketers know that they must constantly keep on top of the rapidly changing field.

Although it is possible to find a number of online sites that give supposedly expert advice, offer all kinds of supposed secrets and sell so called essential tools, sometimes it is difficult to separate the hype from the genuine.  Many affiliate marketers have found a path to greater success provided by Anik Singal’s Affiliate Classroom.  Parts of that widely respected and frequently recognized source became somewhat outdated.  It has now been revamped into a new version, Affiliate Classroom 2, which is fundamentally now a university for affiliate marketing.  This totally new version is going to be open for members (probably for a relatively short period of time) in mid August, but they are building an informational contact list at this time.  I recommend you sign up quickly to receive information directly from Singal.

Singal’s remarkable success as an affiliate marketer and educator to other successful marketers demanded the attention of Business Week Magazine, which named him one of four “young entrepreneurs of 2008.”  That is an outstanding achievement.

Affiliate Classroom 2 gives you the whole picture–all of the context–of affiliate marketing.  Defining, refining or even expanding your niche is covered in all the necessary detail for a beginner or for an experienced marketer.  If your keyword research skills aren’t as sharp as they should be in order to maximize your search engine optimization or to use pay per click advertising in the most cost effective way possible, you will find the expert help you need from Singal and his team.  Do you want to learn more about new ways of finding inexpensive or free traffic? Affiliate Classroom 2 will come to your rescue.

You really owe it to yourself to get more information by signing up for the no-obligation list.

Singal also does a favor for all affiliate marketers by not allowing anyone to use their own affiliate link to purchase the program for themselves.
