There are millions of different affiliate programs on the internet and also offline to join and most are free. During the past 7 yrs, millions of people from all over the world have joined these free affiliate programs in order to generate supplemental incomes or full time as home based businesses. Since most of these affiliates have full time jobs and have little or no computing, website or business marketing and management skills, most have found it very difficult to generate affiliate commissions and reasonable income because they dot know how to generate website traffics. Therefore, some of them were forced to flock to the so-called internet-marketing gurus to buy internet-marketing e-books, website promotion software’s and read gazillion numbers of silly e-zines to learn how to promote their affiliate programs and websites. For more detail go to:www.affiliate-windfall-secrets.com. Some of these so-called gurus went as far as seducing these internet newbies into attending their over priced internet-marketing seminars in different cities in America and other countries of the world. In some of these internet marketing e-books, the so called internet marketing gurus told them that the big secrets of getting rich on the internet were to get massive traffics by placing free classified ads, advertising in FFA (Free For All) websites, placing banner ads, doing pay per click advertising, creating thousands of blogs and pinging them, buying expensive text ad links, doing reciprocal link exchange with other websites, doing opt-in e-mail marketing, joint venture marketing, optimize and submit their websites to search engines, write articles about topics relating to their internet business and affiliate programs and submit them to thousands of article directories so as to get one way links, high page ranks and top 10 ranking so as to get massive traffics. for more help visit to:www.affiliate-directories-online.com. The so-called website marketing gurus seduced them into believing that to be able to do all these promotions they must use certain software’s and programs, which they must buy from them (the so-called internet marketing gurus!) Some of these internet marketer newbies followed all these advices diligently and bought the software’s, did all the recommended internet marketing and promotions. They have done the internet promotion work, but they were generating little or no traffics and sales despite spending thousands of dollars and their valuable time for 1yr-2yrs. Finally, they became fade up and were forced to begin to scream, Where is the money? What they did not realize was that most of the internet marketing strategies, which the so-called gurus had recommended, had been out of date, stale, invalid and did not work any more. They did not know that the gurus do not even use those internet marketing and website promotion strategies. This is because most of the so-called gurus had already made their money in various businesses before they got involved in internet businesses. Most had built large customer base for about 10yrs-20 yrs before they began internet business. One so-called internet-marketing guru sold his offline business for about before he began his internet business and had more than e-mail list to market any product to and generate thousands of dollars easily and instantly. It is clear that what these gurus have been selling are half-truths. They do not tell their customers the whole truth for obvious reasons. This is a no-brainer. It is irrational. No right thinking, rational and profit-motivated businessperson will do that: cut his/her nose to spite his/her face. This will explain why only the so-called website marketing gurus have been getting richer in their internet businesses while the buyers of their internet marketing e-books and website promotion softwares have been doing poorly, and not succeeding as much as the website promotion gurus have in their affiliate programs marketing and internet businesses. Website traffics, visitors and customers are the lifeblood of every business, both on the internet and off the internet.
