I’ve been a full-time affiliate marketer since 2004 and affiliate marketing has changed hugely since those early days.
Things that were easy then are hard now.
Squeeze pages / Landing pages /Opt-in pages and Email lists and marketing didn’t exist.
Neither did YouTube, which only arrived in 2005, and Google didn’t own it at that time.
Facebook was still a gleam in Mark Zuckerberg’s eye.
And WordPress was still a few years away.
Amazon.com had only just launched as an online book store.
Marketing was raw and edgy and a brand new frontier.
Now I look at the sophistication of marketing tools, tactics, strategies and methodologies.
