Did you know that one of the biggest mistakes new affiliates make is in choosing the affiliate marketing programs they choose to work with?

Does this sound familiar?

Step One – Go join the Clickbank Marketplace and look for products with a gravity of 100 or more???

Yeah, I thought so!

Do you wanna know why that is? Well, as far as I’m concerned it’s because a lot of product owners in the IM niche out there really don’t want you to become successful.

What? The hell you say…

Well sure, think about it. The moment you begin having some real success with your affiliate business, it means you’ll no longer be purchasing products from them. Also, many don’t want to have competition in the affiliate marketing programs where they are really making their cashola.

Hey, there’s a lot of nasty “shite” that goes on in the IM niche. Certainly not by everyone, but yeppers, it has more than it’s fair share of bad seeds…shall we say.

Affiliate Marketing Programs – Not All Created Equally

Now it’s obvious that there are some very successful Clickbank affiliates. However, do you really understand how competitive their affiliate marketing program really is? The competition in most cases is HUGE. It’s no wonder why. It’s where most IM teaching products send the newbies to start their affiliate business.

As well, through trial and error myself in this business, I find that a lot of products in the Clickbank marketplace really lack honesty and integrity. I’ve come to learn that as an affiliate the products you promote are a direct reflection of how your public can view you.

It really pays to make sure the products you choose to promote are of the utmost of high quality. Don’t make the mistake of letting “fast cash” over hyped products corrupt your judgement.

A great little test I ask of myself lately is, “If I was to sell this product to my Grandmother right now, would I go to sleep with a clear conscience tonight?” You may want to think about that when choosing the products, and affiliate marketing programs you want to be involved with as well.

Doing something as simple an exercise like that can make a big difference in knowing you are building your niche affiliate marketing business into something you can be proud of. And hey, in the end, being proud of something is what all of us should strive for in life and business. Wouldn’t you agree?
