What I am doing so far.
I created a new blog post today and submitted my car care site to Autozone. I do run ads for WA and another affiliate program I am associated with. Hope Autozone likes my site and I can become an affiliate with them. I have been going through the affiliate bootcamp because a while back another WA member recommended it even if your site is not devoted to WA.
Lately I have been down a lot. It just seems to me that with the other affiliate program that I work with I only get minimal traffic. I am trying to get traffic from a free standpoint on socail media. I did buy some more training but it focuses too much on paid ads on facebook so far. Hope it gets better and is worth the money. At this point I am not so sure. I also have an app that is intergrated into my FB business page and I need to delve into the training there because it can also help me promote WA.
I did recently get two compliments on my site and I think it was not all that good. I also will be starting a tech support job soon. If I get established in the job I will go a full year at WA here. I also need to get into the traffic training as well. I worry all the time that I am on the wrong path with affiliate marketing and have the worst time finding the right one. I worry that if I get established in my job it will take away from my marketing efforts even though I plan to put more money towards it. Some people seem to be able to turn on positivity like a switch and have it stay on all the time. I want to be like that but I am not.
I know that whatever offer or system you are promoting that blogging can be very powerful. I hope I can unlock that power and of social media and replace my upcoming job in less that a year. Time will tell.

Hi MC> I think we all have our doubts about how well we are following WA teachings. I know I do. I've gotten stuck on level 3 a number of times. I am finding that it is now becoming more technical. So, I just go over the lessons again and again, sometime just peek at the future lessons, just to see if maybe I will see something there that will maybe clarify something I am working on. As Kyle says, follow the lessons, you will do all right.
well I have been through all of the initial lessons and have my site up and running. So I need an affiliate program for its niche and traffic.
As far as WA is concerned I am not. But it will take a full year for me most likely before I have any profitability. I have the funds right now to stay with this. If I didnt have the funds I would have the leave this great network and my site behind.
I think you are trying too many things at once instead of focusing on one thing at a time.
We all do - so don't feel bad.
You have everything you need here.
Start at "Getting Started" top left of your screen and just do everything as you are taught.
Follow the program and stop worrying as things will fall into place
And I would never promote something that is not relevant on a website. I should think a WA promotion on an auto site is a mismatch unless you say:
"This is my Ferrari that I bought with earning from my Online Business - established with what I learned at WA"
Best of luck
yeah well I have nothing else to promote at this time. What will I do if Autozone does not let me sign up with them?
Good advice, Mr Bald Eagle. It's crucial to promote products that are relevant to your own niche.
Hey, don't get down man, it happens to the best of us.
Keep going, keep at it, and keep trying.
Someday, it'll be worth it. =)

I've had moments with many of the same feelings since getting involved with Affiliate Marketing ....which will be a year in January! It hasn't started paying my future yet...which is why I'm at WA. The training here is so impressively massive, that I feel I need to pull myself back and not get too far ahead all at once. I've ventured down many new roads in the past, and hit dead-ends on most of them... (some of it my own fault). But THIS is my future now, and I feel I can't afford to NOT give it the BEST shot of my entire life! What can I say.......roll with the punches and don't lose momentum.
I know. Have added more to my blog.
