Go your own way
Been watching a history of Fleetwood Mac on TV and the blog title fitted
I've not followed the learnings in Lesson 1 of the Article Marketing Accreditation Course
Instead, I've kind of adapted as I've gone and not followed the herd
DMOZ underwhelmed me & I used ebay / amazon to find a niche whilst checking google trends
I signed up to Clickbank. Yes its easy but I'd rather promote a quality product. I remeber reading in the forum that GeorgiaRedneck also chose not to use Clickbank
So I signed up, using an existing website as my "base" to Pepperjam (who rejected me) and ShareaSale who thankfully accepted me. This gave me a fantastic pool of quality products to browse & refine my niche.
Now I've got a great niche (after 3 or 4 false starts with DMOZ) and its onto lesson 2!
