I just have a few questions.
1. Do people actually make money doing that? I'd like to hear a testimonial or story from someone who isn't trying to sell me something at the moment.
2. How realistic would it be to try to earn $100/week doing it?
3. How many hours of work per week might that take on average?
4. Assuming it does work, how much money would be needed to get started?
5. Could one expect profits soon after starting or in a fairly short period of time? Nothing big, just not taking too much of a loss.
I'm curious. It sounds somewhat intriguing, but it also sounds like more work than some people would lead others to believe. It also seems like if it works, it was probably easier a couple years ago, before AdWords were as popular. But maybe not. I really don't know. Any thoughts?
I'm new to this forum and to Internet marketing in general.
But thanks for any replies.
Sometimes it takes higher bids and more risk to start winning. It is basically gambling, at least at first, at the Google casino. :)
That book may or may not help, never read it or any others on AWords.
It probably takes as much work as building sites. You'll need cash flow to pay your advertising bills before you get affiliate payments.
You generally have to be very creative, find affiliate programs off the beaten path, find new ways that people express the need for something, think outside of your lifestyle in terms of economic status, geography, etc..
