Affiliate marketing isn't totally dead yet. If it was, then why are so many people still making money out of it? Why are companies such as clickbank still thriving? Personally, affiliate marketing never appealed to me. I think the key to building a business online is in the email list. What I suggest is building a reputation in a certain niche (such as a blog, or writing articles), and then offering the audience a free incentive (opting into the list). Once you get that list up to around 1000 people, you're practically set for life. Just keep them interested, and sell then either affiliate links, or your own products.
Do you ever feel like you're just chasing rainbows trying to win your freedom with Affiliate marketing? That pot of gold is just over the next ridge. It has to be. All those guys who are already carrying their financial freedom say it is. And so you chase from clue to clue, going nowhere fast.

I would definitely build your mailing list as you are building traffic as that is a powerful tool. But it is all about traffic.
You said you "worked articles", but you didn't mention doing SEO (Search Engine Optimization). This by far gets me the most traffic and is the best to spend my time on when it concerns my websites. Great content is great, but if it isn't optimized it isn't going to give you traffic.
So I would recommend to start working on that. Once you get the traffic, you can start working on Conversion rates, etc. SEOMoz.com has some free tools for learning, same as Digestonlinemarketing.com.
However, most of the good stuff is paid. As it should be. Because SEO makes people a lot of money. I didn't learn it for free, eventually I had to take some courses (Well, I actually went to a conference on the subject). And you will most likely too if you want to become an expert in the matter.

Affiliate marketing is far from dead
The one main thing for successful affiliate marketing is to have a substantial mailing list in a particular niche.
All your efforts should be to develop as large a mailing list as possible in a niche.
If you wish to operate in several niches, you need to have separate mailing lists.
what kind of content are you willing to create that people will look at?
attach the affiliate links to content people will actually like.
affiliate marketing is soooo last decade
too many out there now that most just ignore them
i jumped on that bandwagon 10 years ago and got out of it fast
I have looked all over the internet for information on how to really sell affiliate products. I have built a website, worked articles, worked facebook, worked twitter, and tried classifieds. Nothing seems to work at all. I can't seem to drive traffic to any information I give out. For example I have done many reviews for many different things. I have tried building content, keywords, and plenty of graphics on my site. I would really like help from someone that has actually sold affiliate products and I'm not talking has become a millionaire I just need a way to make some extra money online. Please do not try to sell me an ebook, training program, or anything like that. I'm looking for someone that could talk to me or point me in the direction of a free information site that actually takes me step by step to make 1 sell. If I can make that one sell I will know how to do it and will be able to repeat it. So can anyone help me with affiliate marketing ?
