Newbie Alert - Skirt the Scams

There are many horror stories about affiliate programs and networks. People have heard them over and over again, so much, so many stories of scams and worthless product,  that many of us are are wary of joining anything. These stories are invariably related to illegal or just barely legal programs or pyramid schemes. Basically, this kind of market does not have real, worthy product.

Notable among these is Empower Network. This program favors those few who got in early.  Under the present conditions, anyone getting involved with this prgram is destined to suffer a total loss in time and money.  Sure, under the letter of the law, it is entirely legal.  And I suppose it may be possible, under the long haul, to begin recovering some of the money you've spent getting started.  Then again, maybe not.  

The important thing here, if you're considering getting involved with such a program is, don't accept the testimonials at face value.  Get into this with your eyes wide open and be prepared to take a hit.

On that note, let me caution you to never get involved with any affiliate programs that require you to make a purchase as a condition of participation.

The single exception I've found is what I like to call THE SWISS ARMY KNIFE OF MARKETING TOOLS.  This program is definitely worth investigating.  Everyone - that is EVERYONE in the internet marketing business needs these tools.

They're not cheap.  But they're entirely affordable and when you join, you're automatically enrolled in their affiliate program.  This is well worth investigating and anyone passing on this opportunity may well consider getting out of this business.


It is obvious you want to be with a program that offers high quality product that you will readily endorse. The growing number of those who have joined already and are succeeding immensely is proof enough that there are reliable and quality affiliate programs out there. ...
