A lot of affiliate programs say you can earn lots of money for a few hours work a week
. In some ways this is true but in others it is not. You can choose to do very little work and make the odd sale but you will earn nowhere near what you were expecting. However if you choose to put the hard work in at the beginning, it may not seem worth it at first but you will eventually see results like I did. Once the results start coming through, you can begin to relax a little and start making the big money with little effort as you have put everything in place to run itself. My advice to anyone wanting to get into affiliate marketing is to be prepared to put some effort into it and stick at it even if you don't think you are making much progress. Eventually you will see traffic and sales increase. There are also plenty of people online who can give you advice on your sites and tell you what they feel may help you increase traffic and sales. Do not give up!!
