Learning More about Affiliate Marketing

For the last while, 10 months or so I have been spending some time trying to teach myself Affiliate Marketing and Search Engine Marketing without my success.  It seemed that no matter how much work I did before I started a campaign I lost money.  Luckily I followed Shoemoney’s advice and did small tests.  If you have success tweak to get better success, if not figure out why and then try again.  My problem was that I could never figure out what I was doing wrong.  I did the niche reseach to ensure that I was not trying to get into a saturated market, then I went to CJ and Azoogle to find some good programs for said niche, and then I did the keyword research to get as many cheap long-tail keywords that I could.

Last night I decided that there just seems to be too much money available to affiliate marketers not to try to break into it.  I know that if I spent the 2hours a night that I have set aside the RIGHT way I could reach the goals that I set for myself in no time at all.  The catch is learning how to spend the time correctly. 

After reading around for a bit I bought Jeremy Palmer’s E-book.  I haven’t started reading it yet, so I really don’t know if it is going to do me any good, when I have finished and tried out some of his ideas I will be sure to let everybody know. 

About Jeff
I am an engineer by day and internet marketing tinkerer at night. I started playing around with internet marketing 5 years ago and have been making a profit for the last 4, with no more than 4 hours a week on average and usually much less. The profit is not enough to quit the day job he loves, but enough to buy the toys he wants.
