Hi from Houston TX!!!

[markeith]

Hey guys!!!!

I design sub-sea achitecture for an oil and gas company hear in Houston and stumbled upon AM because my mother works for one of the banks here. She was wondering why a fairly young kid was getting so many deposits in his accounts, and didnt look like he even had a job!!!

Well being a good mom she asked him about it, because she knows that I've always looked for ways to supplement my income. We got in contact with one another, and he basically said I wouldn't understand if he tried to expain it, and to do some research by googling 'affiliate marketing'. After doing some reading to figure out exactly what it is, I figured finding a good forum should be a wealth of information, as it has been for me with other things in the past.

Spanking new to the affiliate marketing game (have yet to even set up my site). However I've taken a couple of days to peruse through the forum and there's LOTS of info here

I'm still not sure where to start, but I've gotten this far so l'll continue on until I can get it together. Looking forward to meeting new people and sharing ideas.

Thanx
-Mark
