I understand that this is my first post to the forum. Well I have searched around and really enjoy the feel and look of this forum.
As for the three most important things an affiliate needs, I must say that you hit the nail on the head with the cloaker and the organizer; however, some kind of ad tracking system would also be very useful. Not to mention that a creative way of advertising is also a must.
A lot of individuals are really starting to frown upon clickbank; however with their new developments that they have installed to their tracking systems and such clickbank is still the grand daddy of them all. I enjoy my checks that come every two weeks. Along with the couple of little side items that organize the feel of clickbank really helps a lot.
Wow great to hear from you guys response. Hi noveltytease, having check from clickbank every 2 weeks indeed is a great motivation. I can't agree more with you.
All the tools suggested in the previous post are great. I would add another one (my preferred one) I use everyday is simply a paper agenda!
Seriously, I write everyday/week what I will do, like a "to do list" and when I realize my goal, I can put a mark or cross it and that makes me feel I have accomplished something and that helped me move forward in my affiliate business.
For example, this week (typical), I will write a new article and put in on my blog, or make 10 new submission to high traffic directoties, or I will make 20 forum posts this week. That's the kind of thing I write and I do.
Also, you can write personal thoughts or inspirations stuff as well.
