How To Spot Affiliate Scams
The following article is one of a series of articles which focus on Affiliate, Article and Internet Marketing. All of the
articles are based on real experiences and research done over twenty years as a personal and business coach. They
are also written in response to questions which I have been asked as well as address common challenges that people
have with affiliate marketing, article marketing, internet marketing or running an online business in general. I sincerely hope that
you find the following information of value. One idea, one tip, one clue can make all the difference.
Many of us want new jobs with new opportunities. We are either bored with what we are doing at the moment and desire new
challenges, or dislike the place we are currently working and desperately want a change. Many of us would love to run our
own businesses. The freedom and independence that this brings, answering only to you and working when you want is an
incredibly desirable thing. However, the reality of this materializing is slim to none in most people’s cases.
Most of us don’t have the capital required to start a small business. Others are frightened off by the risk factor involved.
Your steady income will be gone as well as the fact that nearly 90 % of all new businesses fail within the first year.
Affiliate marketing is a way around the risk and start up costs. Affiliate marketing costs nothing to join and the risk is
minimal. You paid according to what you produce and not according to how the company is performing. There are many wonderful
affiliate programs for you to get involved with, however as with anything one needs to be cautious.
Unfortunately, today we live in an age of internet and business fraud. Countless people loose large sums of money on these
home business scams. Unfortunately, the world of affiliate marketing is not immune to this. While it is impossible to list
every precaution a person should take, there are some signs that people can look for. These don’t always mean that the
company is fraudulent but they should be looked into carefully.
Many lull themselves into a false sense of security when it comes to affiliate marketing programs. They feel that, there is
no cost to them money wise so they have nothing to loose. However, this isn’t true. You may get away with no money being
lost but you could lose loads of your next most precious commodity, that being time. You’re going to have to work very
hard to build up your affiliate marketing business so you will want to be legitimate.
If creating an affiliate marketing focused business is new to you then, by all means, find out how to...
Publish a theme-based information-jammed content site.
Monetize with the cream of affiliate programs,
Blend in additional AdSense and other revenues.
Finally... build an affiliate site that WORKS.

========SIDEBAR========
Affiliate, Article and Internet Marketing in general isn't as easy as many would have us believe. I fully understand
(through my own experiences) that it is a lot easier said than done. However, you are here, right now, because you
have a desire to improve your business, grow your business, and be more successful. These articles are here with
the sole intention of helping you to make the whole process a lot easier.
======END SIDEBAR======
You should definitely ask the company for testimonials. Don’t rely on the ones that they post on their website. Anyone
could have written these. Ask for names and addresses of people that you can contact to find out how the program worked for
them. You can also try searching on your favorite search engine. By looking under scams or the company name, you’ll have a
good chance of digging up any dirt that is there.
Read the testimonials carefully. If you find a few bad reviews, this shouldn’t put you off. Sometimes people just are not
cut out for certain programs. If there is more good than bad then things are likely okay. You can also use these
testimonials for advice on what to do and what not to do.
If you have problems finding information then this should be a warning. Good affiliate programs will have been around for a
while and will have a track record. Resist the temptation to join up while the offer is still hot. If it is a good program
it will still be there in 6 months time. If the product or service is worth having, there will still be plenty of profit to
make out of it.
The lure of running our own businesses attracts many. However, the reality of what is involved stops most of us before we
get started. Affiliate marketing is a way to work for you without the financial risk. There are many great affiliate
marketing programs in existence today. However, there are also many companies that are fraudulent. When deciding who to go
with, check for testimonials.
Use the internet to dig up the dirt. Check the company’s track record. No track record at all
can be as bad as a negative record. Beware of new companies. If they are worth it they will still be there in a few months
time.
