I'm currently researching affiliate marketing for my writing website, which does not currently offer any products or services from me or anyone else.

What have been your experiences with affiliate marketing?

Would it be worth my time with the type of website I have?

Is it permissible to engage in affiliate marketing on a free website?

I eagerly await hearing all of your experiences.

I'd also like any suggestions you have on any other similar ways of generating a little more income. Thanks so much!

Hi Michelle,

I'm not sure if geocities will let you host your own ads... really not sure.

For a business card type site, I don't imagine affiliate marketing will generate much revenue...

However -- for a website that has good solid content, it will work.

Have you considered offering some advice to new freelance writers via this or another website?

If I did this it wouldn't generate much revenue because of the type site I have. I'm not really wanting to spend the time to add more things to my website right now to generate more traffic so I'm thinking of leaving this one alone for a while!

Well I don't know about what site...although I do believe every site can benefit from affiliate marketing...but some will have an easier time than others.

I would encourage you to get into affiliate marketing somehow though, because there is nothing like making money to lay around in bed all day sick...like I did today. lol
