1. Build A Website and Get Your Feet Wet In Affiliate
Marketing

2. If you want to have a business online, you need to build
a website. A website helps to promote your products, as
well as, identifies you on the Internet. When I created
my website, I went on the premise of "wanting to learn
how to do it" as I experience the essence of building my
business. I realize now, that even though I learned quite
a bit, it did slow my progress down. Read on, I'll tell you
want I mean.

3. A Little History First

4. After attempting to do typing on the Internet -- you're
right -- my first newbie scam. It wasn't a true scam,
because I was paid. However, I put in long hours for
very, very little pay. Does that read green, naive newbie
all over it? Yes, I'm afraid it does. Needless to say, I gave
that up and began looking for something that would give
me a viable income -- affiliate marketing was the
answer. Thus, my adventure began.

5. Getting a Web host and Domain

6. Well, after much reading, I realized I needed to get a
web host and a domain if I was looking for a long-haul
attempt at making it in affiliate marketing. I found a
pretty good web host, paid for my domain -- And, now I
was ready to build my website...

7. My first advise here is -- If you are inexperienced in web
construction and you want a quick presence online, I
would go with a web host that has web tools which
includes Site Studio. It saves you time, money and gets
you up and moving quickly.

8. Building My Website

9. I decided to use FrontPage (with a dash of HTML) to
create my website -- in my first attempt. Well, my first
attempt was beyond words -- no one wanted to hurt my
feelings -- the website was beyond bad and the color
was what I call Medicine Yellow. But I was still in the
glow, and I must say, working

10. with blinders on. (This was my first mistake, my
knowledge was limited -- I should have utilized Site
Studio that was available to me.)

11. Needless to say, my first attempt did not stay up long. I
went back to work, restructuring my ugly site -- my
second attempt. I changed the color to a dark green
with a base of gray. At the time it looked good, I
thought. I actually got, "you're improving" from a
friend. But somehow, it looked, well --downtrodden.

12. Third restructuring came when -- after a year, I came
upon an article that stated, "if you are using Times
Roman -- even though it is easy to read, it reads amateur
all over it." My first internal thought was, "Crap, I've got
to do my website over again."

13. So, once again, I began restructuring my site. This time
around, I decided to go with a lighter green for my
website (just as well, I was going to have to change
everything anyway), revamped by Google Ads (4 times),
and changed the lettering to "Arial".

14. By the way, it has been said that either "Georgia" or
"Arial" are the two fonts that will give your website a
professional look. And you know -- they were right.
After changing from "Times Roman" to "Arial" -- it gave
my website a cleaner and more professional look.

15. Color as well, is important to your website -- it is part of
your total presentation of your site to prospective
visitors. How important is color -- if they don't like it,
they are just a click away from removing your site from
their vision.

16. After all the overhauling and tweaking of my website, I
believe it is now presentable, brighter and personable to
my visitors. However, I, as well as you, should realize
that you are never done with your website. You should
always be looking at ways to improve the appearance,
products, and service available to your visitors.

17. Becoming An Affiliate

18. You cannot be an affiliate marketer without affiliate
products. With that being said, you can start your
journey as an affiliate marketer by looking at the
following sites for items that fit your theme and of
which you can make a commission.

19. Commission Junction

20. ClickBank

21. BeFree

22. Now, don't be disappointed if some of the vendors turn
you down in the beginning -- after you have your
website up for a while, you will find that some vendors
will be dropping you an email and requesting that you
sell their product for them. It's flattering, however, be
sure that you can blend it nicely into your website
theme.

23. Getting Your Feet Wet

24. The water may be cold, tepid, or hot -- it depends on
your skill level when you begin your journey online (I
believe my feet were in the cold phase when I started) --
but you have to get your feet wet. Do your research, get
all your ducks in a roll, and begin your journey. If you sit
on the fence too long, you will never jump in.

25. Get what Internet tools you can, read all that you can,
and stay positive, even if it means you have to step away
from your computer for a day or two to regroup your
thoughts.

26. As you can see from my experience, I jumped in, had
some setbacks, some disappoints, but also some
individual triumphs. The most important thing to
remember is to close your mind to your own negative
thoughts, and the negative words of those around you.
Why? They can cripple you, and slow or even end your
journey toward success.

27. If you know in your gut, that what you are doing will
succeed -- say nothing -- just keep on keeping on. Soon,
the naysayers will be saying something positive.
