Do YOU really need a website or blog?

ThemeBuilder TemplatesTypes 600

Since it is has been commonly established that starting a website or blog of your own is the way forward for anyone seeking a long-term online business venture. It may not be necessary for your specific needs.

You see, managing a website or blog is a whole ‘ball-game’ of its own. And may simply be far more than is required…

Short of; Taking the Space Shuttle to visit the local corner shop. 

If the whole website thing is not for you though. There are a few alternatives that I can think of. However, I only ever really see these as supportive solutions for existing website owners.

One alternative I would suggest taking a look at, and will probably require lots of traffic as well as compelling content (you can’t get away from content), is LinkTree.

Linktree provides a very simple solution, which you can use for sending traffic to your offers. Unfortunately, this method may be scorned at by some advertising services and is often described as a ‘bridging-page’.

You see, affiliate marketing isn’t made very easy through all the restrictions, different rules, and what is generally considered best practices. If it wasn’t so, you couldn’t start to imagine how much worse affiliate marketing would be. Especially with rogue affiliates  simply doing as they please and upsetting general internet users in the process.

A better method would be; is not to neglect the idea of creating some content of value, and start building an emailing list so that you may contact your audience via email newsletter.
