In the last week or so I have decided to take up affiliate marketing, I monetise my sites in so many ways but have never really gone the affiliate route before — I think partly because I think it’s very hard to do and not come across spammy.

I signed up to a well known affiliate network on Sunday, I picked a site and offer that seemed relevant to my readers on my other high traffic television site and have been promoting it since — so far 3 people signed up and I have earned £1.40, woo! OK so I won’t be able to retire on that amount, but it makes me confident that it might be something I can do and that will be more lucrative for me as time goes on

Commission Soup is a new Affiliate Marketing Network I came across just tonight that I am going to sign up to tomorrow — they look very interesting and it can surely do me no harm to be a member of more than one such site!

I am still learning about what is good and bad in affiliate marketing, not to mention learning what all the words and acronyms mean so it can be a bit intimidating, but I am also super excited about the whole thing
