currently reading the stickies. i love math. however in the thread "love math? better LEARN TO" i couldn't understand any vocab in it - at all. what interests me currently is just writing articles for people, but i am unexperienced in ALL areas. where should i start? also, what is the itrader?

Itrader is a reputation system for the Buy/Sell/Trade section of the forum. It's a way to establish legitimacy as a buyer/seller.

I posted a thread earlier today in the Newbie Section. I'm looking for a few guys to train to be affiliates for my product. Check it out, see if it interests you.

it's moreso just tedious, I hate calling it work even. I mean it is, but I enjoy it, and on top of that when I think of real work I think of hard labor or so, but I guess that's how I was raised.

I'm bored here killing some time before meeting up with a friend, so I'm going to write a little more than I normally would.

Understand the basic structure of how affiliate marketing food chain works.

-Advertisers- make the "offers" that you promote. These advertisers go to -Networks- to find -Affiliates-, like you, in one convenient spot. That's all you need to know for the food chain for now.

Now comes the important part.

You, the -Affiliate-, go to the -Network- to find offers to promote. The Network pays you for each time someone does something. For example, if they enter their email. You get paid. It's that easy, almost a joke really.

Now the question is, how do you find people to fill out their email ?(or whatever your offer asks you to do). You can either spend some time building a site, or take the faster route: just buy the opportunity to display your offer to these people.

As to where to start? Do you have $500 of DISPOSABLE cash laying around? Go to one of these paid traffic sources and go get educated by the school of hard knocks. If not? Go write articles until you do. Writing articles is stupid easy. You'll be given a topic and a rough format, just go reword some shit someone else wrote and hand it in. It just has to be coherent.

Fuck me, I could've just linked you to cake's guide. Whatever, now go young padwan. Take over the world.

^ Yeah Nickycakes entire blog imo and newbieguide for sure

If there is a term you read here that you don't understand just google it -- occasionally you might have to add seo (search engine optimization) or ppc (pay per click) (depending on the term)-- after the term to qualify it.

PS: GL

PSS: there is a dickroll in your future (best not to goggle that term - you have to experience it to really get the true benefit)

what is the best thing to do when you have ZERO web design experience? post your articles on blogs? i was reading about Wealthy Affiliate from this other forum that i frequent and they have tons of tool for creating a website for yourself. i'm tempted on shelling out 80 bucks for that 8 week program..

not meant to hijack the thread, just figured since we're all noobs any questions will do

they say to buy it for the sole purpose of getting a tracker. what's the point of buying a domain if i'm not going to get anyone to click my ads, let alone visit it?
