Where to go? What to do? Where to start? Are you just a little bit overwhelmed? Are you what they call a Newbie? What do I get paid and when? Afraid of being scammed? If all of these questions pertain to you, then you are on the road to success.
Newbies stand up and be proud. I remember the feeling of being overwhelmed and scared. I needed all the help and guidance I could find. When looking for a product, check what kind of support system they offer. This is very, very important. Without good support you are wasting your time. Read everything and ask a lot of questions. Don't make a move until you are comfortable.
Look to see what the affiliate program is offering you. Do they provide a website that is set up and ready to go? Does it include your sales letter? Does it have a 2 tier program? Are stats easy to find? Once you have your site, does it cost you to add every item you want to that site? Like AdSense or a newsletter, or can you add these yourself?
Don't be scammed, check them out. There are a lot of get rich quick schemes just waiting for your money. Don't give it to them! Read, read and read again before you agree to anything. Don't forget the fine print and disclaimers. Look to see that they've been in business for a good length of time. Be sure they aren't just some get rich quick scam that will be gone tomorrow. Quick! Did someone say quick? Well, if you are going into this thinking that being an affiliate is quick and easy, then look for another job. It is hard work that takes a lot of your time and energy. But if you are looking to make good money working from home, then being an affiliate is very rewarding.
Now you are ready to make a wise decision. Have fun looking around and I wish you luck in your adventure. Be sure to read part 2.
