YOUR SOURCE FOR FREE AFFILIATE>>> LINKS and more

Strictly Simple Affiliate Marketing -- is as the name implies.  A site that simply explains the basic principle behind affiliate marketing and how to begin as an affiliate marketer.   This is not a site with one main affiliate program to sign up and promote.  In fact, there are over 70 different affiliate links that can be found here that you can use to promote.  Some of the main categories are:  Advertising, Traffic Exchanges, Auto responders, and website building tools.

You found this site with the intent of a way to earn money.  Therefore, I'm going out on a limb and assume you are here looking for a way to create an income or additional income or to find links/sites to promote for your business.  I'm hoping you are like I was, when I first started affiliate marketing, with no clue as to where to go.  If you are, then I know where you are coming from.   I'm not downing you, I'm here to possibly help you, if I can.  To do that, I have to be honest and provide some insight about this homepage and it's purpose.  If you will notice,  I do not use the word "Newbie," that I know of, anywhere on this site, except for in this sentence.  I hate that word almost as much as I do the term "guru."   You may be new to Internet/affiliate marketing but if I can respect you by not using that term,  then maybe you can respect me for trying to provide this information for you.                                                                                                                                                                       
When I originally designed this homepage, I got ahead of myself and started thinking too technical.  I forgot to think back, to the time, when I first started learning about Internet marketing.  You see, the Internet is not and does not have to be so techno savvy, as one might think.  Somehow, I was trying to live up to that persona.  It became obvious, to me, that I was  too broad in my thinking about the purpose of this site.  In my quest to provide value, to You the user, I had failed to point out how to use this site, and what it was originally designed for.  I didn't intentionally plan it this way, but I suppose I overlooked the obvious, and forgot to keep it plain and simply explained.

What you are seeing now is a revised design of this homepage.

Bottom Line:  Every link on the following pages will take you to an Internet site that has its own affiliate program.  When you sign up for these, mostly free, programs, you will be provided with your very own affiliate link, that you can use to promote and make money.  I want to point out, that if you like one or more, then you can upgrade to get the full benefits of these sites.  I'd appreciate you signing up using the links I'd provided you without manipulating them.  It took a lot of hard work and effort to provide this free site for you.
To back up for a minute as a side note here:  I'm going  to oversimplify the definition of affiliate marketing.  For example:

Company A has a product, but due to restraints, be it time, money, resources, etc., is limited to promoting their product.  However, the company is willing to provide you with a link (usually free) to their site/product that you can use to promote to others for a commission.  Your link is exclusive to you with either your name or an ID number.  This is how companies know who to pay out commissions to.
When you take your affiliate link and promote it to others, be it your down line, your email list, friends, or over the Internet, and they sign up under your affiliate link, then you get paid a commission.  Your commission will vary from company to company.  Some are one-time commissions and some are residual.  You will have to explore them to determine what type and how much.  Most of the time, you will, however, need to have a payment account like PayPal, Click Bank, Alert Pay, or Storm Pay, to name a few, in order to receive your commission.

Back to reality:  If you are an enthusiastic "real go getter," know a lot of people, and are not afraid to self promote something, then you can do quite well with this type of marketing system.  The best part is that it requires no inventory.  If you've seen or heard the term " Viral Marketing;" this is what it all boils down to:  "word of mouth."

So, let's say you like Hit Booster Pro as a traffic exchange.  You just sign up by clicking on the link I have on the Strictly Simple Tools page and you will be provided with your own affiliate link.  Usually, you will have to search for it somewhere on the site, but it's there if you signed up and confirmed your membership. Then you can take your link and promote it however you like, etc., etc.  The more you promote, and the more people you have sign up using your own affiliate link, the more commissions/earnings/credits you can make, and it can go on and on.  Not to mention, a great way to start building down lines.  A word of advice, when promoting your link, cloak it somehow, something like I do, to prevent others from stealing, (and it does happen) your id and getting your commissions.

I hope this has been a helpful explanation.  If you would like more instruction on how to do this you can find my email address at the bottom of this page.
