After the amount of response my blog post received yesterday I decided I had to do A follow up. I just wanted to share the little bits of information I was able to get from google about their new policy and how it will affect us affiliates. I hope I didn't get any of the newer recruits worried in any way because WA doesn't just teach you affiliate marketing but they teach you to be diverse in your strategies and try new things until something starts to work. Google has changed their algorithm many times and this business is still here so no need to panic. Anyways from what I gained through my headaches is google is cracking down on sites with the sole purpose of driving customers to affiliate links. Now that being said they are not completely against affiliates they just don't like sites that offer only one product. They feel this is merely a funnel for traffic and is not offering their users any value. So diversity is key, we will have to mask our sales pitches and do an even better job of providing relevant content. I do however think adwords is not going to allow much affiliate marketing we will have to stick with Natural listings and work a bit harder but thats fine by me. If anybody has more to add please feel free to post here for others to read.
