Hi @azgold,
Several years ago I was making several micro-niche sites to make money from Adsense. I have about 20 sites and in 2 months I was making $200 a month. Then Google made a change and I lost rankings overnight. I also had the Adsense account banned soon after. The Adsense account was reinstated about a year ago after 4 or 5 appeals.
I've also had limited success with niche affiliate sales and made a little money off of Squidoo before it disappeared.
Now I'm looking toward CPA marketing. I had money to invest in traffic but I'm approaching this now as if I know nothing since so much has changed from when I tried this years ago.

Yeah, it used to be easier.
You're one of the lucky ones, that seldom happens.
It was melded with HubPages, which bought out Squidoo.
There are some differences between CPA and running niche sites but you have a terrific background that's going to be a huge plus for you. That experience will serve you well going forward.
These are the links I always like to suggest to newbies. They might be helpful for you getting started in a new area:

Newbie Helpdesk
When you're ready, there is also an excellent e-Book available in audio and pdf format that comes as a freebie with an upgraded account. It spells everything out in simple language and provides a checklist for running a campaign.
I am also looking for either a training course I can purchase or a mentorship that I can get into to help sift through all the poor information. There are so many courses out now that I'm not sure which one or two to focus on. Could you recommend any direction for me?

Hey @T J Tutor
I posted a brief explanation a little higher in this thread.
I'm interested in making money again with affiliate marketing now that I'm a bit older and more experienced and have more money to invest in learning and traffic.
