I wonder how non-english (like me) affiliates succeed in affiliate marketing, considering the necessity of writing good pre-sell description of the products on the landing pages? Do you pay someone to write for you or doing purely ppc to merchant?

I have been getting some success on adsense by studying and turning the famous smart pricing in my favor, but would like to diversify my income just in case the money flow from adsense dies, so, I want to penetrate affiliating as well. Btw, I'm paying people to write for me and publish the content on my website. But I don't think it is a good idea to ask someone to write for me everytime I find a product to promote. Can someone make money, I mean real money by just doing ppc to merchant strategy?

What do you think?

I am English and I still need someone to write my content for me. If you can find a good copywriter it is actually very cheap to get a lot of unique content written for you. So in short, I write some of my own content, pay other people to write content and do some PPC to merchant.

hi

I'm not an english speaking native as well. But I don't think your english matters (seeing from your writing, your english is pretty good). Ever heard of a "Best-writing" book? Or does a "Best-selling" book sound better? lol. If your descriptions are understandable, that more than what you need.

Your English doesn't need to be perfect to make lots of money on the Internet.

By the way; you don't have to limit yourself to English affiliate programs and websites. It can be interesting to take a look at affiliate programs in your own country (and language.)

I am a asian indian living in US ,so english is my second language too. I think i am doing fine ...I dont think language matters significantly in this business as long as you have the right SEO/SEM skills.

I wouldn't worry too much... few enough native English speakers can actually write English well, anyway.
