There Are No Costs Associated With Affiliate Programs

It should not cost you anything to join an affiliate marketing program. The only way you're ever going to make any money is if & when you make a sale. Even with two-tiered programs, you will only be paid a commission when the affiliate under you makes a sale.

There are no fees when an affiliate program is legitimate. You will often come across an offer claiming to be an affiliate program, but often they charge setup fees or they are offering to sell you a site to market the product. Walk away from these type of affiliate programs...they are no good!

Over the past 4 years, as I am sure a lot of you have experienced as well, somehow our email addresses end up in the most unlikely hands! Who knows how it happens, but it does! Once I realized what was going on, I started creating folders in my email system and keeping all the emails I received for every offer I received to 'buy something'!

By doing this, over time, I was able to build a picture of exactly who was legitimate and who was not! I was able to quickly cull the 'fly by nighters' and their ridiculous offers of becoming a gazillionaire overnight with their 'whizz bang' product. They are still out there and you have to be VERY CAREFUL!

Thanks for sharing Steve, This certainly helps me understand all the pros and cons of affiliate marketing and what is a scam and what is not. My only questions, how will I know when I make an income or commision? Will I get an email from the WA, paypal, or affiliate sites like Amazon?

Hi Zoli...
Any sales you make will usually be emailed to you immediately...
You will get an email from WA & PayPal...Amazon I'm not sure about...but I would think they would send an email notice immediately as well...
Best wishes

Thanks...
It's not a very nice feeling...
The only good thing for me is, I've got a computer full of products and services I can try to sell now that I know a bit more about what I need to do!
Best wishes
