Third. Look closely at program's webpage. Is it attractive, clear and professional looking? Is writing clear and direct? Does it answer all your questions? Remember, if you think webpage is clunky looking or that it's hard to follow, so will a lot of potential customers. Only go with a program that has a flawless homepage.

Fourth. Look at payment and sales update schedules. Will you be paid once a month? Once a quarter? How will you be notified of your sales? Really go over all payment information. After all, this is reason you're joining, right? Before you join you must make sure that everything about payment process is clear and to your liking. If anything about system seems unusual or unclear, walk away.

Now, there's no way of guaranteeing that a program will work, but if you follow these simple steps, you'll have a much better chance of success. There's a lot of money zinging around on net, and if you just do a little homework, you can do quite well in booming affiliate world.

This is killing your sales!

Sally has been stricken with a sever case of affiliate gluttony. All is not lost though, with a bit of work, Sally will be able to create several income streams out of her website and all without losing any of her affiliate programs she so enthusiastically promotes.

If you're already stuck in this rather popular ditch it's not hard to dig yourself out. Slowly modify your webpages with a personal touch and you will soon see your click thru rates and sales referrals pleasantly increasing!

Our best advice to Sally is to take each of her most popular affiliate programs and create unique websites for each.

It's not as hard as you think it is. Imagine if Sally bought up nuclearjuicer.com and created a 3 to 5 page website that totally focused on promoting "Dandy John's Nuclear Powered Orange Juice Squeezer With Email Attachment Interface" Do you think her sales would increase? You better believe it! Adding pictures, personal testimonials and quick load times will help create a total marketing machine focused on selling one product! When a targeted visitor comes to nuclearjuicer.com looking for a juicer they will have nothing interfering with their purchase decision.

Whether you promote software or lawn mowers, if you focus on your target market, you will increase your affiliate referrals.

Sally can immediately put this idea into play with very little out of pocket expense using these resources:

With a little time and patience, you can literally create as many affiliate income streams as you want! Each one should be focused on one specific category or concept to generate most revenue. When you leave your targeted visitors with fewer purchasing choices and keep them focused on one product, you will create many more affiliate sales.

Remember, a glutton's ugly on eyes...

DON'T BE A GLUTTON!
