Work From Home: Useful Advice for Affiliate Marketers

Do you work from home? Do you need help to consistently make money online from your activities?  My answer to both questions is YES!  I've been at this since 2007.  I have made money from my online work.  Only recently (i.e. within the past 2 or 3 years) have my earnings become consistent.  (Although the amounts are still not enough to pay the rent; I can buy groceries.)

Currently, this is what I do daily to earn money, working at home:

1) Watching Hideout TV videos
2) Performing small tasks at several crypto faucets
3) Chatting at social sites that pay like Forum Coin, Noise.Cash, etc.
4) Affiliate marketing (mainly posting links via social media) 
5) Maintaining monetized blogs and writing articles at sites that have a monetary rewards incentive

I just started micro-investing (buying stocks, ETFs. etc.) and crypto trading.  It will become Number 6 when I start making money.  I said "when", not "IF". ☺

I continue to read countless articles and blog posts written by others who insist there is A WAY to become financially independent by making money online.  Maybe so.  But I have not found it.  What I have found is that what works for one person may not necessarily work for me.  I also found that you have to be persistent in order to reach your financial goals AND you must keep up with the changes and adapt when needed.  When they introduced Ad Blockers in Browsers, that was a game changer for people like me who wanted to make money online.  Most of the money I earned came from advertising revenues.  

Fortunately, friends introduced me to cryptocurrency.  There are ways to earn crypto and while the website you go to might rely on revenues from advertising, the activities you perform at that site to earn crypto coins is not impacted.  Once you earn cryptocurrency, you can deposit coins into a trading account to start investing and growing your portfolio.

Friends also introduced me to micro-investing.  I'm a newbie right now, but I have confidence I can make this project work!

The preceding paragraphs were background/introduction to direct you to an article I read by Caroline Carr, a fellow writer at Medium.com. Five Things You Didn’t Know About making $75 Every Day.  (unpublished). It's an excellent article but I'm going to repeat myself.  What works for one person might not work for you.  

♦  For affiliate marketing, she recommends The Big Three: Warrior+, JVZoo and Clickbank.  The first 2, I've never heard of; but my experience with Clickbank has produced ZERO results.  Nevertheless, I would not discourage anyone from giving any of these three a try.  After all, they worked for Ms.Carr.

WHAT IS WORKING FOR ME?  I signed up to become an authorized affiliate via several programs.  The program that has produced the best results is Sovrn Commerce (formerly VigLink).  They have various marketing tools.  But the tool that works well for me is the Chrome browser extension.  It allows you to create and share monetized links of over 70,000 merchants.  Think about this.  You're constantly browsing anyway.  Suppose you land on a merchant's website that has products or services you would like to market.  Click the icon for the browser extension and it will tell if that link can be monetized and how much you can make if someone clicks the link and visits the website.  Is that super easy or what?  You can share the affiliate link you created anywhere that it is allowed.  My monthly earnings are automatically sent directly to my PayPal account.  I did not make $75 a day.  But I do earn regularly from my affiliate marketing efforts.  You can do a general search for reviews of VigLink.  Some people like it.  Some people don't.  I LIKE IT!!  It's working for me!

♦  Ms. Carr also suggests using Quora for your affiliate marketing purposes.  Quora is recommended for traffic if you do not have a blog, a website, or a YouTube channel.  I created an account with site when it first started.  It's a Q&A site.  It was not really created FOR affiliate marketers.  In fact, during the beginning years when the community was growing, I tried to share my affiliate links and was given a warning that such activity would not be allowed and that my account would be deleted.  Quora was launched in 2009.  It's 2022.  I guess they have changed the rules. (???) 

WHAT IS WORKING FOR ME?  There are others who agree with Ms. Carr's method (see link below).  As for me?  Even if the rules have changed, Quota is not a site that I would choose to share my affiliate links.  Ms. Carr suggests you write responses to various questions and insert your link into the content.  I get more results when I use social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest; and writing a brief description of the product or service is all that is needed.  I'm a KISS type of marketer.  (KISS = Keep It Short and Simple.)

CONCLUSION: I am not saying that I will NEVER try the methods used by Ms. Carr. Never say Never. But for the present, I am going to use the online activities that are producing results and employ more of my efforts toward cryptocurrency trading and micro-investing. 

Ms.Carr says if you use her methods you can make $75 a day with affiliate marketing.  The methods I use are NOT generating $75 per day; more like $75 a month.  However, earnings from my affiliate marketing efforts fluctuate and I have noticed that earnings increase significantly during the holiday months of the year (October through December).

DO WHAT WORKS FOR YOU! ☺

Cmoneyspinner on Over-Blog | My Pain, Your Gain

Using a free account at a site called OverBlog. It’s sort of like Tumblr or Pinterest, in that it’s really easy to share links, photos, etc. and write your own content. My posts date back to April 2015 and the last time there was any activity was June 2016.  Creating a blog was easy and the site does have visual appeal. However, my site does not get much traffic, so I don't spend a lot of time there.
