Some may see this as a little bizarre, but this Christmas was my first foray into the world of Affiliate marketing. Sure, I'm well familiar with the industry, how it works and what it's all about, but I've never bothered trying to make any money out of it.
Anyway, with a little help from my good friend Iggle Piggle i've had a bash! With my 'experimental' site eenoe, I got started and got some quick ranking in the Serps for various terms:
Radley Handbags
In the night garden
Singing Iggle Piggle
Pink GHD Hair Straighteners
It's been fun, and I DID make a little bit of pocket money, but unfortunately there was a problem.
Unbeknown to me - Iggle Piggle was out of stock everywhere in the country - so none of my bloody affiliates could honour a sale - all that hard work gone to waste :( Many 100's of UV's came straight through eenoe only to find we couldn't actually give them what they wanted.
Lesson learned? - Only SEO for products your merchants can deliver!
Alas it now seems we've been sandboxed, so I'm making squat anyway - lol
