I have been doing affiliate marketing for a while now full time. I love it, I get to have fun, make money doing it and meet lots of new and wonderful people in the cyber world.
I currently just use potpie girls program, one week marketing, but have added a few things out of my own imagination, one being facebook. Now there are lots of internet marketers out there that use this tool too, but often they will just pollute your wall over and over and you end up just hitting that hide button. I have found a different approach.
My niche happens to be the very broad niche of relationships. There is a lot of little niches inside of this one, but that is another story. I joined facebook several months back with just a few friends. Now I am only a few over 200 but every day I get more and more friend requests. I do this by posting on my wall and commenting usually funny or relevant comments on walls of others. I have my setting unrestricted so anyone can view what I post. I try to pique interest and usually I get a lot of comments and conversations start and people get to know one another. Facebook is truly viral, it just keeps expanding. Freinds become friends of friends.
So for the most part I am just socializing. A few times a week I will post an article or an updated Squidoo lens and the traffic comes. I even have a few followers who will take my links and post them on their own walls.
Another thing I have done is create groups on facebook relating to my niche and I start discussions there. My links are posted within the group and I get traffic daily from that. Like my network of friends, my network in the group grows too.
Moral of this story, if I have aquired over 200 friends and the same amount of group members in just a couple of months, where will it be a year from now? Facebook alone with my lens and blogs can make me unlimited income. The best part of it, I have a blast doing it and I have made some great friends I would never have met otherwise. Hec I have even got a few dates off facebook, help with my websites among many other benefits, so yes I love facebook.
