5 Crucial Tips For The Affiliate Marketing Novice

Getting started as an affiliate marketing novice is half the battle when it comes to successfully making money online. Start with a simple system that will allow you to focus on doing only what is profitable for you.

There are activities that you can engage in everyday that can bring you closer to your goal of building a solid business online, however there are some things you can or may be doing right now that may be killing it for you.

1) Checking email endlessly can eat up your time faster than ms. pacman (remember that video game?).
Limit yourself to 15 - 20 minutes and then get on with it.

2) Reading ebook after ebook and not taking any action. Unless your planning to build a review site for all those ebooks (which probably isn't a bad idea), put the instruction to use. You'll never know what works until you get to work and try. Learning all you can about your business is one thing, but scarfing down 2 - 3 ebooks at a time is only going to lead to confusion and more inactivity. A confused mind does nothing.

3) Spending more than 30 minutes to an hour on forums. They can be quite fun and educational but if you're not posting, get to work.

4) Never ending research without the slightest hint of creating anything. See point #2.

5) Fear. Do not let the fear of making a mistake stop you from taking action. The truth is you probably won't get it right for awhile, but if you keep taking action and applying the techniques and instructions at some point it will click and you will make money online. Some of the greatest success stories on the internet started out making mistakes along the way until it all came together. Fear is not going to pay your bills or help you retire, so don't worry about it just keep moving forward. (Where have you heard that before?)
