It went to over $300 a day couple of years ago and I thought YES i HAVE MADE IT, then it like a rollar coaster something changed and now I earn less than $1 a day. Affiliate marketing the same I earnt less than $10 a month for 2 years then in feb 07 I thought I would jig things up a little, to my surprise I earned $30,000 in two months, again I thought I had arrived, then again nothing since, apart from grey hair. I have now go to start again re motivate myself to carry on, I am lucky because I thought No way I would ever earn $1000 a month to earning $30,0000 in two months, so I know it can be done. To all newbies carry on, do different things as you could lose that income steam within a couple of days, I was riding high on google adsense and then something chnaged at google sites dropped, revenue was like a lead balloon. Again with affiliate marketing did something different then no fault of my own something changed an income dissappereared. Anyway I hope that helps, its a rollarcoaster ride, enjoy the ups and tough it out on the downs. Opened a new site today http://www.money-saving-newsletter.com, to try re motivate myself, have to think what I am going to do with it and of course how to make money from it and of course design it, which I am not very good at.(any suggestions, ie basic html site or some sort of blog) Keep smiling, Kevin admin@money-saving-newsletter.co.uk Thats a great post,

You're right you certainly need to treat this game like any other business. I'll freely admit I'm lazy, I accept I could work more and earn more... but then time is much more valuable to me than money, I don't want or need a 7 or even 6 figure salary. Subscribed to your blog, will read more. Take it easy, Si. Great post.

It is refreshing to hear the truth. Thank you for the show of respect. I have read several of your posts in the last few minutes and have either learned alot or concur with your conclusions. My partner, Greg Meares, and I are very committed to succeeding as internet marketers. We are on the road where, at times, it seems dark and lonely. Thank you for your encouragement.

I added it to my daily reading list. I totally agree that that there is no substitute for hard work when it comes to affiliate marketing. I am just getting started with some of my own projects. I have to say it is definitely a ton of work to build your first site completely from the ground up and to make sure it has everything it needs to be successful. The amount of work first starting out can be intimidating, but I know if I continually work hard I will see the long-term benefits down the road.

That could be ppc affiliate marketing, SEO, blogging, list building, etc etc. You may experiment with a bunch of things in the very beginning to see what really interests you and you have the most success with, but once you've know what that is, stick with it, and get good at it. Becoming an expert at one thing is really your best chance at making a lot of money online. Once you're full-timer you can branch off and try different things. As for an example of a campaign that generate long-term profits, I'll leave that for a future blog post. So stay tuned. :) Hi Jimmy,

I have couple of questions. What are examples of campaigns that generate long-term sustainable profits? You said you started to focus on ONE thing and get REALLY good at it. Are you talking about not doing affiliate marketing and at the same time build MFA sites or other stuff online to make money? Or are you talking about running a successful campaigns for that SPECIFIC industry? Thanks and keep posting good posts! Amit,
