3 Three things to avoid. You need to be different. At all cost to being successful with not just internet and affiliate, but as with all types of marketing. And you are probably thinking this is a little unusual being told not to do something. Especially since everyone wants to sale you on the point of what you should be doing.

If someone is just telling you what to do, ten they are not really helping you are they. If you want to truely help people in this business, then you can’t just tell them what to do because you still leave them with possibilities of making mistakes. But I told them what to do right? Very wrong indeed.

Let’s look at product promotion. I am telling you not to promote the top products. You are out for highly competitive niches which result in very very low sales and costly pay per click advertising. Only when you become experienced and gain the expertise of the pros, should you only promote these products.

Don’t sale the same item and use the same ads that the rest of the marketers are using. Well, good advice but how can we do this you wonder? You see, everyone is doing what you were just getting ready to do. They were going to do all this work and give all there backlinks to the products website. Why should you build their list for them? You shouldn’t. So, just build your own list. Copy their site and post it on your. Genius right? Wait there is more you can do. Set up an autoresponder so you get all the opt-ins for your self and promote it with your own offers such as free information or newsletters or what ever you like. Now here is the real beauty, you can send them to the purchase page and avoid the merchants salescopy page. I’ll tell you how to do that later.

Don’t offer the same promotions as every other person that you are working against. It’s not hard to do. All you have to do it think a little bit different. All of this begins to make more sense and a lot of money when you employ just a few simply strategies and techniques.
