Why You Might Not Be Making Money Affiliate Marketing

Shiny objects.

Always with the shiny objects.

You read an article about building a niche blog and you start. It takes work. But you are moving forward. You have yet to make a sale, but your traffic is picking up. You are getting into it.

Then you happen upon an ebook about bum marketing. Well, you are started on the right direction. Let’s just try this instead and put the other one on hold. But of course, this is also a lot of work.

But that other ebook that just came out last week is looking good. Maybe, if you plan to buy that when your next paycheck comes in, something will change for the better.

Ever see the picture of a spider building a web on caffeine. Yeah, that’s about the result.

There is time to try new things, but the reason is to add to your current skills, not run away from work. There is not very many magic bullets left on the internet and when you find them, they will not be around long.

So, focus for a while, already. And don’t take anyone’s word for anything until you have tried it yourself and given it your best shot.
