Can people really make a living as an Affiliate marketer?

Postby JP29 » Sun Jul 01, 2007 1:37 pm

I have seen dozens of programs being sold on the internet that claim they will show you how to make a six figure income from affiliate marketing. Are any of these programs for real, and if so which ones? Or, are they all scams that make money by selling their product to lazy, gullible people who think they can make money while they sit at home and do nothing?

Yes, some people do but only people who are willing to put a great deal of time into it and genuine effort. There are a lot of scams out there but there are also some legitimate ones. SFI is a very legit program and is even listed with the Better Business Bureau. However, with them, you only make residual income as an EA...For more info on them go to below website

I spent a while trying to weed out the different survey sites and the different sites that pay you to try things without trying to scam you.

I put together a blog for my friends (I figure I'd share it since I wish someone had put this together for me) and I listed the sites that didn't require me to go through pages of ads and that actually pay out cash and not points or entries into a sweepstakes.

I'd say that realistically if you spend about 2-3 hours a day and complete the surveys and offers for about 5-10 sites or even just to refer your friends that are tight on money now and then, you can average about $150- $250 a week. If you want to check it out my blog its:

There's no gimmick or money to spend (or credit cards!) just a way for you to make a few extra bucks. Hopefully this helps!

The programs are real enough but the people who buy them make it unreal...

They buy, read several pages... Do nothing.

What can you expect from doing nothing.

Yup. The answer is nothing at all.

Most of these programs teach you ways to promote your own website. But you got to do the promotion or pay someone to do it.

Then you'll see what you want coming in.

Affiliate marketing is one of the best ways to earn money online.
This business involves a revenue partnership between a web merchant and one or more affiliates, whereby the publisher or affiliate gets a commission for referring clicks, lead or sales to the merchants website. Once you are an affiliate marketer, then you are in business.
