6.Get an Auto Responder. With an auto responder program you can make process of buying leads and adding them to your newsletter completely automated. You can save hours of time with this approach.

7.Write your own Articles. To be successful with affiliate marketing you will eventually have to write an article or two. This may sound a bit overwhelming in beginning, but after you have been building your business for awhile you will get into it. Trust me I felt same way when I started. Always include a signature at bottom of article containing your website link. Then post your article on as many websites as you can. Lots of sites let you post for free.

8.Add an Article page to your website. Post all of your articles on this page and any others you find related to your niche. Having an article page will add content to your website and will help with your page rank since search engines love websites with lots of relevant content.

9.Join an Online Forum. Becoming a member in a forum is a great way to stay current with products in your niche. Talking with fellow entrepreneurs will keep you motivated and help generate new ideas as well as answer any questions you may have.

You will need to establish clear rules and policies as to what is acceptable by community, and sanctions that will be imposed on those who violate rules. What kind of things are unacceptable for users to post? Personal attacks, bigotry, and profanity should not be allowed. Will you allow off-topic messages? How far off-topic?

Get all new members to agree on rules and put a link to rules on all pages. Also provide a form that makes it easy for members to report violators.

Have clear polices for what penalty will be for violating rules and deal with violator as quickly as possible. Start by emailing individual and politely request that they review community's rules and policies pages. If that doesn't stop violations, enforce penalty.

Many web users conceal their true identity and use a pseudonym instead. They pretend to be who they're not and this is prone to abuse. Sometimes this results in exploitation of minors. There is not much you can do to learn members true identities, but you should verify email address of new members by sending a message to which they must respond.

Enforcement of rules could involve subjecting their messages to approval before posting, suspending their posting rights, or banning their membership in community. Email them, letting them know that they are being penalized and why. Let them know what they need to do to get penalty lifted.

If you want users to have confidence when they join community, you will need to post a clear privacy policy. It should describe what personal information will be collected and how personal data will be used. Put a link to privacy policy on all pages.

You should maintain a topic about website itself where members can talk about bugs, rules they would like to see, or features they wish for. Here, new members can post questions about how to use their computer, web, or community website, and receive help from more experienced users. Visit that topic regularly yourself.

One decision you need to make is whether messages be archived and for how long? Will you archive all messages, including ones that are just frivolous chat or gossip and are not worth saving? Will you allow members access to archives? Will you be only one who can delete messages or will members have authority to delete their own messages?

You can start your message forum on a site that offers free message boards and as your community grows move to your own Web site. Below is a list of some websites that offer free message boards or free message forum code.

Boards2Go (www.boards2go.com) provides free message boards hosted on their servers. There is nothing for you to set up. Boards2Go's message boards can easily integrate to your website's layout.
