Basically, affiliate marketing is a revenue sharing venture between a website owner, and those who called online merchant. To make it simple, it is a way of making money online (actually, it could be on offline too) where you as a publisher are rewarded (normally in cash) due to helping a business by promoting their product, site or services.

There are three types of affiliate marketing i.e. pay per click, pay per sale and pay per lead. However, I am not intend to discuss details here. Perhaps you could ‘google’ by yourself

One of the basic mistake that publisher (some geek word says “newbie”)  technically ignore is to protect affiliate link properly. As a result, the actual income that keen to get is lower than targeted income. Some proponents argue that this is just “a few bad apples” case. The true fact is it is very extremely important to protect the affiliate link.

By protecting your affiliate link, it will save your time by just replacing old link to the new once. Let me explain further.

Say, after you intend to promote a produck called MYCLICKBANK. After you sign-up then you will get this link.

http://myclickbank.com/?ref=abc123 , where abc123 is your affiliate ID.

then, you promote this link via your responders and suggested a customer to buy via your link.

After two monts, admin of MYCLICKBANK changed the script and used among powerful marketing scripts like Delavo.

Then, you find out that your affiliate link is written like this:

http://jvcommerce.com/main/s2841/194ev/3369 ; where 3369 is your new ID.

Two questions arise. First, what happened to your previous link (i.e http://myclickbank.com/?ref=abc123). Second, what’s happened to your monthly commissions?

“Ah..its so simple my dear friend. What I need to do is to tell my subscriber that my MYCLICKBANK links currently changed and remind again that should buy via new link”

Come on dude, it’s TOTALLY waste your time. Remember, a smart person do not doing a same thing for the same purposes!

As a solution, I am highly recommended you to use this free software to protect your affiliate link (and to protect your valuable commissions too). How about the manual? Don’t worry, I also attach supporting manual how to use this software.

By using this simple affiliate cloack link, you are able to save your time and most important fact is, you are no need to worry if the owner will change the system even for thounsand times. Use your permanent link and upload it.

For example: http//yourdomain.com/recommend/myclickbank.htm ; where myclickbank is your affiliate link (please refer to manual which I include at the end of the post)

Its so simple like spelling a-b-c. I’m strongly advice that you create this permanent link via your own domain.

Some people use blog for fun.

Some people use blog to generate residual income.

Some people use blog to express opinions.

And some people say that blog is useless too!

Actually, it doesn’t matter on what are people says. The main point is, you must know on what purpose that you are intend to blog. If you are really sure why you need to use this platform, I believe that you may become a successful blogger. I believe you will get on what you need.

The another dilemma is, how to express your idea from scratch to blog? Well, actually it is really simple solution. What you need to do is follow  two basic rules as follows:

• Use your own experience and write on in your style! (People really love it, I swear!). In addition, your personal experience are always refresh in your mind, isn’t it?

• Write your article as simple as you can. No need to use some “boombastic” word or sentences which may result your reader unable to understand your idea. While, some gurus said to me – use KISS method (Keep-It-Simple-Stupid).

The problem is still happen actually. How to start and post your first article? How to ensure other reader will read your post?

Some who claimed experts says that, in order to meet that aim, firstly start you post by writing any topics that you are really familiar with. For example, if you love soccer, start with your favorite club.

Second example is, if you are really experienced in selling products (doesn’t matter online or offline products),  start to share what benefits of the products and why you choose to sell it. People do love to know it.

Write your favorite articles around two to three paragraphs. On the same time, try to improve your writing skills and use correct grammatical rules.

Then, doing some research, read more books (or ebooks) and expand your article from two to three..from three to four and so on.

Are you still not believe this simple approach? Well, currently you are reading my first issues of blogging dilemma. It looks old school but really works

So, what are you waiting for?
