Affiliate Marketing Getting Started

Last year there was buzz in the Internet marketing community about a challenge that Dan Raine was holding. His challenge was to make $15,000 in 30 days. He started a blog and chronicled his every move so the readers could follow along. You can still check out how he did it and learn one aspect of Internet marketing by clicking here.

This year there is a new challenge. One that is a little less lofty as far as money goes but important for the new affiliate marketer all the same. This years challenge seeks to take the new affiliate marketer and provide them with the tools and training to make their first $10 in 30 days without spending a dime of your own money!

Although this challenge started August 1st, you can still follow along and find the training task by going to the thirtydaychallenge.com.

The people behind this challenge are Ed Dales, Dan Raine and Nicolas Messe. These are about as big of names in affiliate marketing as you can get.

Yeah, I know, I dropped the ball on this one. I should have known about this back in July and told you then! Oh well, better late than never. As I said above, you can still learn loads of information from this challenge. They have a blog and forums as well as daily task. The best of all, it’s FREE!

Why $10 in 30 days? Probably because it’s a realistic goal for beginners. Everyone can follow along and with just a little effort and no money, make their first $10. The goal is to teach you how to make money with affiliate marketing. Once you learn how to make $10, it’s only a short line to making $100 per month, then $1000, etc. But first, you have to learn the basics and pocket your first $10.

This isn’t some pie in the sky “make a million overnight” get rich scheme. If that’s what you’re looking for, don’t bother. If on the other hand, you wanting to learn how to start a prosperous online business, you’ll learn the basics at thirtydaychallenge.com.

You can also watch some of the pre-challenge video’s and lessons on YouTube by clicking here.

I spent several hours last night looking over the material, signed up as a member and viewed several of the task, the blog and forums. I can’t think of a better way for someone to get started in affiliate marketing than by following this course. Truth be known, you’ll probably make your first $10 a lot quicker than 30 days!
