Great many companies still use banner ads as a mean of marketing and they are generating handsome amount of dollars still. They only art is to use them in the correct place and in the correct time.

Affiliated Marketing
The affiliate has to do thorough research on the merchant before agreeing to affiliation. To not do so can mean ending up with a merchant who refuses to pay commission fees or packs up his business and moves on without informing any of his affiliates. This is rare, however, and most merchants and affiliates have a pleasant and profitable business arrangement. How ever forums are the best place to promote your affiliated products. These forums have particular questions and discussions and are generally niche forums. So you will get your target audience in abundance and you can target your marketing effectively. However again remember to be subtle with your message. Use your expertise to guide people and give them a solution to their problem and then slip in the link to the affiliate site cleverly.
