Affiliate Marketing

 

Let me just say, I have been an affiliate marketer for about 8 years and there are a ton of ups and downs. For starters, affiliate marketing is over saturated and so many people are doing it because it is quick and easy cash sometimes.

 If you happen to get on with Amazon, here is a warning. You only get 180 days to make three qualifying sales and if you fail to do that they kick you out of the program in which you are going to end up reapplying to and trust me, Amazon is a hard platform to market for because everyone is doing it and it is popular. 

There are going to be a lot of companies that will not accept you because you do not meet their criteria and it is nothing against you. This is just the company and looking for a certain target and demographic. 

Affiliate marketing is really hard when you do not have the following because you are going to have to work extremely hard to try to promote and give people reasons why they need the product and or get it and trust me sometimes this is hard because as I said so many people are doing it. 

If you do decide to go into this kind of career have a back up plan because this is not going to bring in cash quickly. A lot of companies are giving you cents of a dollar sometimes depending on the contract agreement and you will end up getting cheated in the long run. 

So no this is not going to bring you quick cash. A lot of programs pay in 30 days some pays at the beginning of the year and to be honest, a lot of companies have a threshold that makes it hard to meet the goals. Some are $10 and some are higher but it is hard when you are getting cents of a dollar. Some of my commission bases are 15%, 5% and 10% and that is it. 

 Also watch third party platforms such as Commission Junction and Impact or any other one that will charge you annual maintenance fees or whatnot and end up taking some out of your balance. 

So be sure to do your research before applying to some of these affiliate sites because some of these are just getting free promotions from you and you may not get paid because of this. 

If you are trying to market, I highly suggest social medias and if you can use hashtags to be sure you are reaching those you want to reach. This will take time to build up, don't beat yourself up over it just be sure you have a plan B for when this does not work out. 

If  you can, make a blogger. Bloggers are free to use and you will not be wasting your money on something that could not make it. It will allow you to make blog posts about the products and you can add tags to it making it pop more along with SEO which allows you to show up in the search engines. You then can share you blog around and it just makes it easier to keep up with. 

It is pretty much all about building yourself up and figuring out what works for you and what does not. You may find one company that you hit it off with and can make a little bit of cash with while others may not work out.

Affiliate marketing is not the best!

 Let me honest, affiliate marketing does not make anything. You have to actually really push yourself out there to get people to buy things and look at your stuff. Sometimes you will feel like it is going no where and you are at the wits of your ends trying to make ends meet

. Affiliate marketing is basically free advertisement without being paid.

 People can look at your stuff and decide to go to the website and buy it without using your links meaning you make nothing for it. Trust me, I have been an affiliate marketer for 5 years now and now, its like no one is buying, looking nor clicking. 

People will lie to you and tell you it is a quick way to make money it or you can make X amount of income with it. This is not lie but it can be. So do not get your hopes up thinking it is a quick route to make money because it is not. You have to work 10x harder to try to get 5-10% of commission that is sold.

Bloggers don't really make anything trust me, I would know I have three of them and only one has Adsense on it but won't make anything from it and I also have affiliate links in it and that doesn't make anything either.

Blogs and affiliate marketing

 Blogs do not really make money like people say they can. Yes you can get adsense on blogs as long as they follow the guidelines and TOS but unfortunately none of my blogs does due to one of my blogs are adult content and reviews adult novelties all while they have advertisement for alcohol on adsense. 

Since I could not have adsense to monetize my blogs I have affiliate marketing links and ads to at least try to make some kind of revenue in which that doesn't really make anything either. 

When starting off and needing money to the point you are trying to find anything that will make you something please do not get your hopes up with blogging because I'm here to tell you I have been here since 2016 and have not really made anything.

 I made a few sales with the affiliate marketing links here and there but not enough to get a payout which sucks. 

Another thing I will say is don't get tangled up in affiliate marketing. It is not worth it. You will spend your time giving them free advertisement while you make nothing and it does not matter the company nor what they say you can make because you won't make it and I rather tell you now than you get your feelings hurt thinking it will bring in quick cash.

Also third party affiliate sites are not worth your time. If you still do decide to affiliate marketing then go to their websites and sign up as an affiliate from there. 

People won't click on off the wall tracking links because they don't know what they are unless they have the company and site name in the link.

My life,2022

 Christmas is on its way and I am not ready. I am normally always ready for Christmas but this year is different.

 Last year, I had money for Christmas where this year I do not since the company that I was working for decided to make it harder for their affiliates to be able to make money. 

They also pay a month behind so it. 

 The threshold for pay out is 50 dollars but if you do not hit 50 you do not get paid so you kind of get it. 

I included an image of the payments and the last time I got paid from the company. 

If anyone feels in the giving spirit, you can always tip me. It is not required but I would be very thankful! I am also looking for remote work if anyone could point the way.

I have been trying to figure things out on my own. The person that I married, made so many promises that it's to the point I am tired of hearing them and they become broken promises that are empty. I have repeatedly asked him to do things and it is like talking to a brick wall and I end up having to do them myself even though he said he would get it, don't worry but what is the point when it is me having to pull your load also because he won't. I am so tired of this, I am tired of living like this, I am tired of the unwanted stress I receive daily and it is not fair to me and my mental health to be put through this even though oh, he applied to jobs, been accepted but comes up with excuses and reasons he can't do it just like everything else. This is not fair to me.  

I have spent a lot of my time applying for jobs for him... I have spent a lot of my time worrying about bills being paid, worried about if everything is in order when he lives careless... I did not get a gift for our anniversary and most of the gifts that I got... I end up giving him money to buy or he some how got it. I don't really get Christmas.. I don't get flowers or chocolates really. I don't even get to go out on dates anymore and it sucks.
