Whether you are an experienced affiliate marketer or are entirely new to affiliate marketing, anything that will increase your traffic and income is attractive.  I recommend two resources that will meet those objectives, and, if used correctly, they should do far more than cover your costs for them.

MyArticleNetwork is a membership service with the primary function of distributing marketing articles directly to niche websites and blogs.  From the member network of more than 10,000 sites, you may set a limit on how many of your uniquely spun articles are syndicated.  It is an exceptionally valuable tool for those of us who use article distribution extensively.

The Affiliate Classroom 2, the well respected educational resource developed by Anik Singal for affiliate marketers looking to learn to take their business to new levels has been revamped and will soon be released anew.  Members of the previous version reported increases in their business ranging from 11% to 40%.  I don’t know about you, but even at the low end, I’d be happy to increase my income by eleven percent any day!  Furthermore, three quarters of the members of the older version reported that they needed no other affiliate marketing resource for assistance or education.  Just think about all the savings in that one statistic.

Extra good news for affiliate marketers is that both programs have an affiliate program.  In the case of the article network, you must be a member before you can become an affiliate.  With Affiliate Classroom 2, you may not use your own affiliate link for your personal membership purchase.  Both offer two tier systems, encouraging all of us to seek high quality traffic of affiliate marketers who will also be good spokespeople for the membership products.  And the fact that buyers will not be able to substitute their own links for that of our own links makes these affiliate programs especially attractive.

I have previously published overview of MyArticleNetwork, in a different article.  Here I want to share with you one of the techniques that I employ to make sure that my small membership fee doesn’t have to be covered from other revenue sources.

I recently wrote one article in which I reviewed two products.  While I usually drive traffic (and SEO links) to my own sites, in that article I used direct affiliate links.  The articles in the system are trickled to the various websites up to the limit that I chose.  At this point, that article is just one third of the way through its publication cycle.  Already, that one article has more than paid for my membership.  Once all the versions of my article are published, they will stay on those site for a very long time generating additional traffic for my affiliate links.  I have no idea how much more that article will eventually earn for me, but I know that whatever it earns from here on out is pure profit.

Both of these memberships will help me build my business for the long term, but the best news is that I can make them pay for themselves.
