Making money with Internet marketing is not easy. It's been said that 5% or less of net marketers make enough money to buy a decent dinner or a pizza. But those 'want-a-be net gurus' are spending the dinner money, the food money and in some sad cases going into big debt trying to find the Holy Grail to 6 figure incomes.

I have experience with this and don't want to have any more experiences like that. I hate telling my wife that I know I'm on the right track, that I can find the secret, only to find I'm just losing at the whole game. Or it is even more embarrassing to quit your job when you see income coming in from your marketing, only to have Yahoo, Google, or MSN change their Adsense ad algorithms or Adword rules and suddenly your bank account dwindles with incredible speed.

Well, don't jump overboard yet, as the ship is only leaking a bit, and you can break out the bilge pumps to keep you afloat.

I am speaking from all the experience I've had personally, and spending a lot of money (thousands of dollars) on ebooks, training, software, etc. thinking that each one contained the secret to wealth.

Before you jump from one great sounding ebook, software or membership site keep asking yourself if it fits in with your overall plan for marketing on the Internet. Only if it does, should you invest. This is the #1 reason that 95% fail at making significant income on the web. Being easily distracted is a sure-fire way to failure!

If you follow the steps laid out here, you won't have to keep looking for that one secret that will open the door.

After all the smoke clears the winners left on the battlefield are those that had:

1. Luck (where action meets opportunity)

2. Determination -- you really have to be focused and not get distracted from your success plan.

3. Guts (having the intestinal fortitude to think 'outside the box'.)

4. Vision Know where you are going so you don't flounder.

A formula to make money with affiliate programs:

1. Find popular products on clickbank.com

2. Create a bonus

3. Write a pre-sell.

4. Promote with pay per click search engines

You don't have to have a newsletter going out once a week, design your own website or create a blog to get income via affiliates. Just get a plan and act!
