Affiliate Marketing Tips For Beginners (The Don’ts)

• Don’t waste your time marketing a product or service if you are not making any sales.
• Don’t send anyone email messages unless they have agreed to be on your list.
• Don’t try to skirt the rules of any policy agreements you have agreed to your affiliate networks .
• Don’t overload your website with lots of rotating or flashing banners. Treat your visitors as guests and do not torture them with blinking lights that violate articles of the Geneva Convention.
• Don’t ignore marketing materials an affiliate manage may have provided you. In many cases they have been A/B tested and can be very helpful in getting sales.
• Don’t trust marketers who tell you that you can expect to earn a fortune overnight. It just doesn’t happen. Anyone who tells you that is lying.
• Don’t quit. If you are rejected by one affiliate network apply to another.
