Has Affiliate Marketing Become Oversaturated

[Lambo]

Okay so I know affiliate marketing has been around for some time, and going into it this late in the game can have some drawbacks.

It seems like people are becoming immune to those side ads and that alot of people have saturated the market either getting people to sign up or promoting similar products.

Is it worth diving into affiliate marketing, or should I be focusing my time on something else.

All thoughts are welcome.

While you think about what business to start you should be creating and building your credibility and your link to the Internet. If you promote the people around you they will give back to you and spread your credibilty around that will help you affiliations. Really this has worked for my friend Ramona Carvajal. Please check out our Unique Network Marketing concept at theB2Bpeople.com and theB2Bflyer.com.

These sights also have a unique SEO property about them. I have taken Ramona Carvajal from a mild office person to a B2B entrepenuer. Just search her on the Internet. Now that she has credibilty people are listening and coming to her. The more you give the more you get. I have some investors that have pulled back since last year when the market crashed but are still interested and working on ways to get money to me. While I wait my goal is to get one B2B people site in every state. Contact us if you would like to learn how we do it. Just Google "The B2B People" and contact Ramona Carvajal

Look how the guys at blackhatworld.com are profitting from the affiliate marketing business. I doubt that it's over-saturated.

I think you need to actually take the time and find out what YOU actually want to do. Because no one can really tell, an individual what to do because they aren't that person. I suggest you write 20 things you interested in! and the one thing you can see yourself doing! Invest you time and efforts in!

I don't necessarily think that affliate marketing is over saturated so much as the consumer has gotten wise to it. People are shopping online more these days and they have picked up it

It's impossible for it to be saturated. There are too many consumers in the world.Think about it. And with all those consumers (6 billion+) migrating to the internet, how can it be saturated? Affiliate marketing is a choice of occupation like engineering or being a vet...whatever.

I've been searching the market for a while about an opportunity that I could invest a minor amount of time in while seeing a minor amount of income. I am looking to just add additional funds to my current position. Affiliate marketing seems over saturated but it depends on what you become involved in.

the key to any marketing is doing your research and then promoting to desperate buyers... the reality is that there are more affiliate programs than there are affiliates... and the demand DOES outweigh the supply because there are so many gaps in the market that just aren't being promoted to... whether you are into affiliate marketing or thinking about starting an MLM home business opportunity... do your research and then you'll see how unsaturated things really are

I agree... it may seem oversaturated, but there are so many markets out there. But keep in mind, it will always take patience and hard work.
