The Whole Truth About Affiliate Marketing World
Recently I came across a question in one of the pages on the site by a new user who asked if she should already upload ads and affiliate links to her website.
In my opinion, the answer to this question is simple: no! Why not? What's the point of uploading ads and affiliate links to the website if nobody sees them?
In order for these ads and affiliate links to be meaningful, the website must have audience and traffic. Without audience and traffic what are the ads and affiliate links worth? They're worth nothing!
In order to have audience and traffic on your website, you have to rank very high on Google. Without a high ranking in Google the audience won't find you.
There is only one way to get a high ranking in Google: Publish as many posts as possible. And here's something very important that for some reason isn't talked about: to get high rankings in Google you must publish posts on a daily or almost daily basis!
I will give an example: In a time span of about 180 days you must have at least 120-150 posts on your website.
The problem is that even when people choose the niche they like, how much can they write about it?
Not long ago I saw here a post by one of the friends who wrote: I have my website for a month now and I've already published 8 pages and 12 posts and still have no comments (I'm not talking about comments from community members, but real responses from real people who arrived to the website through Google search).
The answer is simple: What is 12 posts per month? It's nothing! In a month you need to write at least 20 posts in order for the site to start moving forward.
The problem is simple: ordinary people who are not accustomed to writing can't write so much over time, even if they choose a niche they love. And then what happens? At this point many people give up and do not move on. As far as they are concerned, they have already written a lot, but in terms of Google, they really didn't write much!
In summary: If you aren't able to write a post every day or almost every day over a long period of time, you have nothing to look for in the world of affiliate marketing.
All of the above is on my mind only. It's clear to me that many of you will not agree with me and that's okay. I would love to hear your comments and opinions. Thanks!

there's another kind of people... like me! I have tons of "what to write" about my niche, I could go on for ages but I don't seem to manage my time very well: there's the WA training, the writing, 2 independent businesses, two children and house chores... not to mention some quality time with my family and friends... having said that, my email inbox is PACKED with WA notifications of blogs. Where do you people get the time to blog here as well? I'd really love some insight...
Hi Daniel
"I will give an example: In a time span of about 180 days you must have at least 120-150 posts on your website."
Please tell me, where did you get this information?
How is it possible for anyone to come to WA and manage this amount of work without paying for writing services. I think that is highly off the mark... I only have 20 pages and 32 posts on my 6 month old website and there is plenty content and information to keep the audience busy for weeks or months to come (if they accept the opportunities available through the site).
With a full time job I can manage 1-2 posts per week + additional work on the site, banners, promotions, fixes, links images, renaming things, optimizing etc.
Sure there is not much organic traffic at this point but I would never meet your quota realistically speaking no one here on WA posts 20 articles a week... I could be wrong that's why I left a open question here.
Just my thoughts Daniel :)
Thank you for bringing up this topic.
Regards,
Kamil
I didn't say 20 articles a week. I said 20 articles a month. You say that your website is 6 month old and you also say that there is not much organic traffic after 6 months!!! You know why? Because in 6 month you did only 32 posts.... average of 5 posts a month! only 5 for one month! With all do respect, you can't get anywhere this way. Sorry, but that's what I think. Good luck!
Sorry 20 a month I meant to say.
You talking about a FULL-TIME gig then. What about the people who already work full-time? Can they make it work?
12 posts is indeed nothing between the Indexed Web contains at least 4.62 billion pages. Not likely you score the #1 page of Google within a months time with 12 posts. Given that Google just starting to take website pages seriously after being around for over 6 months. That's due to the enormous number of people starting up websites and abandon them before the 6 months are past
Exactly! And why do they abandon them in less than 6 months? Because they have nothing more to write about, even though it's a niche they love
Or they just didn't find the result they expected for the work they have put in and gave up, most people give up through this:
You and your Dreams
This is precisely the point: it is impossible or almost impossible to achieve the results we dreamed of in less than six months. Most people don't understnad it and give up. But what I've been trying to say is that people give up not because they do not see results, but because they have nothing else to write about

Oh dear! Food for thought! If this is the case then I am probably in the wrong place :(
