?What is your biggest challenge with Affiliate Marketing? Do you struggle with creating links, getting traffic, making sales? ? Get specific ? I?d love to know what frustrates you most!?
​

There were just over 20 responses, and they were all legitimate frustrations.

I narrowed it down to 10 main issues most people have with affiliate marketing?

I really don't have any problems with affiliate marketing. I love it. The taxes are a pain but that's about it.
