One of the biggest challenges of affiliate marketing is the problem of traffic. Affiliates often times are not privy to information that the promoters often have which is relative to what is currently working and what is not.. Like any business that is going to be around for the long term you need to develop a customer base in other words a list of people who you can develop a relationship with.. To do so you will need a presence on the web.
On the other hand you can directly send traffic to given web pages for a return however you must understand that this requires constant management and does not give you the leverage of having your own customer base.
As a result lots of folks get disheartened with the whole business because they realize they are not on an equal standing as the promoters. Now that does not mean that promoters are evil. They are doing their job and that is promoting products to customers. Affiliates like you and I are often to blame because we take short cuts and do not treat our affiliate business as a real business. We give things a shot here and there but never implement and follow the information given to us to succeed.
