While it may sound like a very strange post, what 5 Things have your New Training Shoes and Affiliate Programs got In Common?

1. You probably bought your last trainers because your friends have them. To make money on the internet you need to be individual and not always follow the crowd – don’t sign up to an affiliate program because everybody else has, it may be saturated.

2. As soon as you got your new trainers back home you did not like them.
Think before you sign up for an affiliate program and build your site around it – make sure it is right for you.

3. If the colour you wanted was not in, you probably opted for second best. If the affiliate program you’re looking at does not fit your needs (or your visitor profile) exactly then don’t sign up for it.

4. As soon as you bought them, there was a better pair on the market but you were stuck. Always monitor your affiliate programs and if something more popular, better and paying higher commission arrives then give some serious consideration to changing your site affiliate links.

5. Rather than stick to one shop all of the time, look around for your next pair of training shoes. Don’t always look in the same place for your affiliate program links, check all of the affiliate sites available – you might be surprised!
