FREE Affiliate Training - Genuine Good Stuff ONLY!!!

[Linda Buquet]

Hi Guys,

Decided to start a new stickie and need your help.

So many n00bs want to know the best way to get started and many of them need free resources. Plus some of you OLD DAWGS could even learn a few new tricks.

So I'm starting this section for free training resources. I know there have been other good one listed here in the forum and there are some "out there" I've seen but have not posted yet. Please help me by linking to QUALITY free training and resources here or elsewhere so we have a place to point newbies to. to help them get started.

WARNING - DO NOT POST YOUR OWN STUFF HERE!!! If you have written a little free article or ebook that's just a come-on to show your affiliate links or trying to sell something else - DON'T BOTHER POSTING - it WILL be deleted! This thread is only for QUALITY resources that are free.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a PERFECT example to start with from a post I made today.
This is also the preferred format: Title, summary, link.

"In case you have never heard of Dr. Andy Williams, he is an affiliate marketing guru and trainer similar to James Martell and has a loyal following of affiliates that swear by his software and training methods. He is the developer of SEO website builder, which is a favorite of many affiliates. I've been hearing rave reviews about his new FREE course, "Creating "Fat" Affiliate Sites."

SiteSell is one of the top all-in-one getting started resources for affiliates.
It is NOT free, however this section has a TON of info that would be helpful for new affiliates to read.

Reading is free - joining is not.

(Yes that's an affiliate link, but I own this forum so am allowed)

Here's one tip for n00b affiliate marketers, (old hat to vets).... make sure to add target="blank" to all of your affiliate links. That way your site will stay open, and the affiliate link opens in a new window.

Always always always always always always always always always cloak your affiliate links. I've lost count the number of email marketing messages I receive that have stealable affiliate links....

Clickbank in particular is easy to hijack...but if you use an autoforward for your affiliate link, you can cut down dramatically on lost commissions. You need to use the 'meta-refresh' tag - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/META_refresh has an explanation of it.

I want to share free resources where managers can list their programs for free

Hi Hassaan,

This thread is for Affiliate training resources.

If you want to know about resources from promoting your affiliate program, please post with that subject down in the Merchant/Affiliate Manager discussion area and we'll get some suggestions going.

[ahzuberi]

I think you misunderstood me I have collected nearly 100 websites where merchants or affiliate managers can list their affiliate programs for free. Where can I post it up that is my question,

Thank you for your time and consideration,

I just found out a free audio course James Martell is giving away.
Here are all the details.

"Recognizing that today's Webmasters are busy, oftentimes overwhelmed, and looking for a proven resource they can count on to keep them abreast the ever-changing search engine strategies, natural search engine expert James Martell has just released excerpts and commentary from his recent sold-out live Backlinks Workshop, held recently in his online conference room.

Delivered to your inbox each day for five days for free, these information-packed, 30-minute sessions tell you exactly what's working today with Google and the other search engines so you're not wasting your valuable time. Each mini series session can be quickly and easily be downloaded to your iPod or iPhone, or listened to from your desktop, which means you can join in on the timely instruction while on-the-go or from home, at any time that works best for you."
