Joe Moody’s Web Adventures

Ok so we’ve seen the promises that we too can “work from home” by setting up affiliate websites and then sit back and start raking in the money.

I’m putting this to the test in my latest online adventure…

By the way affiliate websites are sites where you create links to products from online retailers like Amazon.com, if anyone clicks a link on your site to get to the product and then makes a purchase, you get a commission, usually a percentage of the sale.

I happened to acquire a pet carriers website recently (hey, I’m a webmaster, these things happen — like a mechanic who acquires an old car the owner no longer wants or needs).

This site already receives a decent amount of traffic and is pretty well placed on Google under the search term pet carriers.

The site also used to sell a brand of dog carriers, cat carriers and even bird carriers.

Now that the owner isn’t selling his product and no longer needs the domain, I’m using it as a testing ground.

I first signed up with the mega-affiliate site Goldencan and they connected me to a pet supplier. I setup links to the pet supplier on the pet carriers website.

Stay tuned and I’ll post here how it goes. I have no bias and nothing to gain (I already make a living online) and just want to see if this affiliate stuff actually has any merit to it.
