Thin Line Between Affiliate Makreting and Affiliate Marketing

Last Update: May 25, 2012
I read an article about affiliate marketing, the scammy kind. Some big names are mentioned. If you want to know one of the reasons you're having a hard time marketing some types of products, read the article. It's sick what some people do and call affiliate marketing. Here's the link:[url]http://www.theverge.com/2012/5/10/2984893/scamworld-get-rich-quick-schemes-mutate-into-an-online-monster[/url]What do you think?

Kyle actually blogged about this article about a week ago. This is why I've become an avid supporter of WA and the "legit" way of internet marketing.

I always had my suspicions and this article seems to confirm some of them. It's part of the reason I dropped almost all my email list subscriptions. Although it was quite humorous when a 'new' product would be coming. All the lists would start throwing out very similar pitches to every list. Interesting to see what 'perks' each one would add to get you to sign up through their link.

On the flipside though, not EVERY internet marketer is out to scam you.

WHO are these people paying $500/day for training? ... And where can I find them? LOL!! I kid!

Wow ... all that for a .99 e-book? That's a little scary. I talk about the scams too, (don't we all?) but I also make a point to say there are good programs out there. I am "selling" them after all! I hope I'm not inadvertently promoting this kind of stuff! :s
