I have been looking for a long time to supplement my income online. I have been looking into affiliate?

trying affiliate marketing with no luck. I know the scams out there because I have been looking for a long time. I have tried clickbank and amazon. I read on here how everyone makes money; what am I doing wrong? Am I impatient? I'm just discouraged because I can't seem to get anything going. Thanks for your advice in advance.

Update:

Thank you all! Your time has been very much appreciated - you have given me new hope!! Thank YOU!

    You say you read here that everyone makes money?

    You are just reading the scams.

    You really believe all these stories?

    Anne,

    There are a lot of people who can't figure it out. The main reason for that is they think it is easy but what they don't realize is, there are a lot of people that make all their income doing that and they know what they are doing.

    If you had no idea how to cook, how hard would it be to open a restaurant beside lots of other successful restaurants and survive?

    It's basically the same thing.

    Lots of people think it will be easy and get out there trying to make money and have no guidance and don't even find a system with step by step instructions and they are competing with professional Internet marketers that have a system and a budget to work with.

    If you are serious about having a home business, the best advice is to forget it unless you are prepared to invest some time, energy, and money into training yourself on some Internet marketing skills.

    I heard a top marketer once say that if he had to start all over again from scratch, he would pay for a good copywriting course and learn pay-per-click.

    He said everything a person does in trying to make money involves selling something.

    That only happens when marketing happens and the only way to get people to buy using the Internet is for you to know how to use words to compel them to buy. That is copywriting.

    Pay-per-click can cost you a lot of money unless you learn it pretty fast and the only way to do that is with a training course but if you learn it you can get business flowing within minutes.

    Of course a lot of people don't have the money to use pay-per-click and they will need to start with some free strategies like social media marketing or article marketing which each involves it's own set of strategies and methods to be effective.

    The bottom line is - you can spin your wheels and waste a lot of time unless you get the training and guidance that a proven system can offer and you can cut that learning curve way down by using a system that offers a diverse training regimen.

    There are several system out there that offer training and all of them will work if you put the time in to learn how to work the system.

    I use such a system to build my home business. It is a lead generation and attraction marketing training system and they offer free training to members and their guests.

    Of course the members get access to all of the past two years of weekly training sessions and can invite guests to the live weekly training sessions.
