About
This goal of this online journal (I’m reluctant to say “blog” because I hate that word) is to document a beginner’s experiences with affiliate marketing.
I am a 15+ year sysadmin with a strong focus in Cisco and Linux. Since 2000, I have been working entirely as a consultant in this regard. In my normal jobs, I mainly work on building and maintaining networks and systems for my clients.
But…. (there’s always a “but”, right?) recently a good friend introduced me into the world of affiliate marketing. The friend in question is a incredibly bright person with strong developer and sysadmin skill sets, so I took his ideas and suggestions seriously.
After about one month of trying to build up various niche sites, blogs and community forums, I felt like I was just scratching the surface, but it seemed like a good time to start documenting the process and the long road ahead. This journal is that documentation.
