On this post, I tell you about the different levels of affiliate marketing:
- Linking means you go and get an affiliate link to a product and add it to a blog post, tweet the link or whatever.
- Reviewing means you actually use and test the product (e.g. read a book, install and test a software program, test drive a car, etc.), and then publish a review of the product.
- Promoting means you put time and effort into actually selling the affiliate product (and not just link and/or review).

This post is another Questions & Answers post, with similar questions by two bloggers. Both Brian and Birney are struggling to monetize their blogs, which are both related to saving money.
If you feel your niche is hard for making money (which one might consider to be an unprofitable niche), you have to think outside the box in order to find a way to give your readers what they want, which might be saving money, free stuff, entertainment, etc. – while making money yourself.
