Welcome to 5 Star, grooveman.
You can get a lot of helpful tips and learn a lot by spending time reading as much as you can in our Newbie Affiliate Forum. Pay close attention to the "Sticky" Threads
http://affiliate-marketing-forums.5s...filiate-forum/
Our members are freindly and very helpful. Just ask questions whenever you have any.
The good thing about being a member here is that you can get good information without anyone trying to sell you anything, because that isn't allowed.
After you gain a little more knowledge about what to do and what not to do, you'll be able to start making some money.
We are here to help you.
