Glad that the plugin works well and filters the spam comments. I would also suggest using captcha for blog posts and maybe even user registration, if possible. I had a bad experience with spam. One day I woke up to find my forum flooded with spam posts. There were so many of them, that I simply...
Very good tips for all the affiliate programs out there. I get really discouraging by programs that stay behind the technological boom. The stats need to be life and the marketing material need to be accessible via the affiliate account.
Making affiliates happy with promotions and occasional...
Affiliate marketing being an online business relies a lot of visual representation and illustrations of the product you promote. Your site needs to be professionally looking, the message you sent to your visitors must be clear (click here, sign up now, top, best - the shinny buttons help a lot)...
I think it is ok to add couple of paragraphs and add the source with the link at the bottom. Plus you can always contact the site owner and ask for permission to use the article (or a part of it) with a link back.
I work lots of hours as well. Sometimes it is an ongoing thing - the computer is never off. It comes to at least 8 hours a day of hard work. Then several hours of email checking and socializing!!! :)
I wouldn't use "did I matter" in sense of my work accomplishments, but rather whether I had an impact on other people's lives. How many people did I help out? How many times did I reach for to those in need? That kind of thing...
Sounds normal to me not to have any traffic after a month of work. Keep things going, submit your links to social networks and things will start coming in slowly but surely.

Definitely. Unique content will and always be the key to success. You cannot just do the hard core off page seo and "please" the search engines. You have to make your site to work for people because that's where the conversions are.
I think the topic "making money online" is just too broad. It is impossible to figure out how to make money if you don't even know what you actually want to do in order to make it! That's why most "money making" advises are just plain useless.
You have to know what you want to do and then...
There is nothing "relaxing" about affiliate marketing. It is all about hard work and constant improvement. If you plan to relax in front of the computer, then it is better to keep your advertising job and do affiliate marketing just as extra income.
You are right, working from home has its ups and downs, however I still think that "ups" strongly overweigh "downs". As long as you have a daily plan and do go get out with your friends from time to time, you will be fine :)
