I think the criticism was towards the ad. The point is that a bad ad is a bad ad anywhere. You can run a bad ad on a small 2nd tier platform or on Facebook and you won't see conversions.
For natives, yes, I like Outbrain. Outbrain and Taboola probably the best ones. The downside is that add...
I think it depends. It depends on the actual website, how you drive traffic to it, etc. If it's very niche specific and it could make the navigation more confusing for your current visitors, you should probably be careful with it. If the website is 100% ukulele focused and even the domain is...
Hey @DigitalKnight !
Each campaign is different and not all campaigns turn a profit. In fact, I'd consider a 20% success rate pretty good.
Still, there are a few things you could do to speed up the process and find a winner faster.
* Consider using a spy tool. Power Ad Spy is a good option...
Hey TJ!
I'm doing great and you?
I've been a really busy bee, but I'll do my best to be more active in the forum. AffiliateFix is a fantastic community, I always learn a lot here, so I'll do my best to contribute, too.
I believe 2CheckOut has a in-house solution for affiliate management. If you can process payments with them, it may be worth trying.
Otherwise, I think you can try a free Wordpress plugin such as this one:

Among all the business, marketing and advertising books I've read, I think the one that had the biggest impact on my results was Ogilvy On Advertising, by David Ogilvy. Cashvertising (Drew Eric Whitman) probably comes second. These are two very practical, zero profund books that helped me...
I think $20 - $30 a day is a very achievable goal for a freelancer. You can improve and grow what you're already doing or even start developing some skills that will allow you to make more money for your time.
I know freelancers working as "basic" programmers and designers and easily crossing...
I totally vouch for Ogilvy on Advertising and Cashvertising.
In fact, Ogilvy's book is among the best advertising and even business books I've read. I've read the old, original edition... and it's still 100% relevant. Of course, media channels change as well as the way people communicate...
I think some of the best native platforms such as Outbrain and Taboola don't have a minimum deposit (unless it has changed).
However, if you'll get started with only $100 I think you'll actually be taking a big risk.
If you have any special guidance and absolutely know what you're doing, then...
@WBSS - Don't be hard on yourself for making a mistake. We all make mistakes as it's part of learning. I have made some really big mistakes in my business and have lost a lot of money because of them, but I have also made a lot of momney with what I learned from them.
On a more pratical side, I...
Answering the question in the title of this thread, it took me a little more than a year to start making money (not a lot, but some). However, if we measure by "attempts", I believe I built over 40 different websites and tried a ton of different methods until I finally stopped jumping from one...
Affiliate marketing is a business model. Looking at it as an ATM can be an expensive mistake.
You can't simply press a few buttons and make a ton of money fast without making any investment or going through any learning curve.
If you want a business model that will allow you to change your...
I don't believe there's a better type of offer... there may be a better type of offer for a certainy strategy, though.
First, I think you should define how you'll be promoting offers and then look for offers that suit your plan.
Otherwise, it's like asking whether you should buy a cheap car or...
There are many different ways to run Facebook ads and I certainly don't know all of them, so I can't say whether that strategy is right or wrong.
What I can say is how I normally approach this type of campaign.
First, if you'll be using the conversion objective, you should be aware of the...
@Jerrya978 I'm sure you'll be able to find high quality training programs in the affiliate marketing space.
All top affiliates were beginners one day and, in a way or another, had to learn how to do affiliate marketing from someone else.
However, I have to be honest and say that I'm not very...
There are many good traffic sources out there. If you share more details on the type of traffic you're looking to buy (native, in-app, push, etc) I'm sure you'll get some good recommendations here.
However, I don't think it's possible to state that you'll get no bot traffic from an ad platform...
I recently created a thread on how to deal with Facebook account bans. In my post there's a topic about "avoiding account bans".
If you want to learn how to run CPA offers on Facebook, I think that information may be useful.
