Do I need to have a lot of money to start affiliate marketing?
No, you can start with a minimal investment. Many successful affiliates begin with just the cost of a basic web site and domain name. Contrary to popular belief, you can also promote your web site via search engine optimization (SEO), which is free.
How quickly can I start generating an income?
Like anything in life, results will vary, but it typically takes 3-6 months of consistent effort to see significant income. I always recommend to newcomers to focus on building a solid foundation first when starting out. The money will come later.
Do I need to be technical to start affiliate marketing?
Not at all. Matter of fact, most affiliate marketers I know have little to no computer skills. Basic computer skills are more than sufficient to start. Our course covers all necessary technical aspects, making it accessible for beginners.
Is the affiliate marketing industry oversaturated?
Just the opposite actually -- affiliate marketing is one of the fastest growing industries with strong year-on-year growth projected in 2025 and beyond.
How much time do I need to devote to be successful?
You can start part-time, but consistent effort is key. Successful affiliates often treat it like a part-time job initially. If you have a busy life, then just take it slow and learn as and when you are able to do so.
Is affiliate marketing a get-rich-quick or pyramid scheme?
No. Large, well-known companies and brands, such as CreditKarma.com, NerdWallet.com, and even news agencies like CNN.com or FoxNews.com, are all examples of companies generating affiliate marketing revenue. It is a legitimate business model that can provide substantial income with time and effort.
Do I need a large social media following?
Absolutely not - I have never personally leveraged a social media presence for affiliate marketing. This is a completely faceless business if you want it to be.
