Affiliate Marketing ForumDiscussions concerning affiliate programs, affiliate marketing tips and techniques, and ways to increase earnings through referral programs. This forum is NOT for promoting your own affiliate program or referral link.
Some tips I found on the Clickbank blog. These may all sound familiar to you.

Those of us who have been involved in the affiliate marketing world for a while are all too aware that it is an industry prone to change, and lots of it. A website that makes you money one day, might literally disappear from the search engine rankings overnight, and leave you struggling to find a reason why. The terms of service (TOS) on one of your favorite Web 2.0 sites might change in the blink of an eye, and you suddenly find yourself losing an important traffic or income source. Wouldn’t it be nice just to have some reliable marketing constants for once? Well today, you are going to learn about the three constants in affiliate marketing; these are the things that won’t change any time soon, and they should form the foundations of your affiliate marketing efforts.
I think this is more applicable for affiliate marketing through SEO channel, if you are doing affiliate marketing through email, I guess the constants would be quite different. I believed one of the key constant would be relationship building.
I like the idea of the trust products! Being affiliate marketers requires building trust, therefore you need to sell trust products.
It's so important that you are creating content that benefits the customers, not just for search engines.
