Sure affiliates work. I am averaging good money every week on my blog after only 2 months. My affliates keep tripleing my income every 2-3 weeks. My blog income comes from advertising space and affiliates. The ratio would be 85%-15%, affiliates being the 85% of my blog income. The money is motivation to do more.

It all depends on what you mean by respectable. Some affiliates pay better than others.

Hope this helps,goodluck.

Affiliates for real

There is definately a use for them if you either want to generate a little extra income or maker enough to quit your day job (job - just over broke).

Affiliates and affiliate programs are for real and they work in respectable ways if you are promoting the right products and in the right way. Many people are making a living as an affiliate, case in point, a well know success story is Rosalind Gardner. You can check out more of her info here (just copy and paste the link): superaffiliatehandbook.com/cbae/?a=ak6wjO6Yk

She is true to life and the real deal. Plus there are many, many more. I haven't achieved retirement status yet, but I do generate a small additional income from my affiliate programs and websites.

I also recently lauched a review website for home based business and affiliate marketing called Work From Home Business Report (see link in sig below). Only a handful of items at the present, but my list of postings is growing daily as I review programs that I have tried over the last 4 years.

Either way I wish you much success on whatever you decide to do.

Helping other people out isn't a bad thing. It's not like they get part of your commission. I'd be happy to tryout someones program if they gave me the rundown on it and it fell within my interest
