I experienced the same thing when I got started. Here's what I suggest: Buy the product yourself - and make sure to use your affiliate link. Here's why you should do this for ANY and ALL affiliate products you promote: 1. You see whether your sales are tracked properly. Unfortunately affiliate tracking is not perfect. You want to make sure that you are getting credit for the sales you do end up referring. 2. You get to see their sales process. You can see for yourself how easy - or hard - a company makes it to purchase. I once mistakenly promoted a product where the company's shopping cart malfunctioned! You may also want to watch a friend or relative make the purchase. That way you can see if there is anything confusing about the process - on your website and/or on the company's website. You can fix these things before you start sending traffic to your page. Make sense? Great question! -Ben Hi Sal,

I know exactly how you’re feeling. I experienced the same thing when I got started.

Here’s what I suggest:

Buy the product yourself – and make sure to use your affiliate link.

Here’s why you should do this for ANY and ALL affiliate products you promote:

1. You see whether your sales are tracked properly. Unfortunately affiliate tracking is not perfect. You want to make sure that you are getting credit for the sales you do end up referring.

2. You get to see their sales process. You can see for yourself how easy – or hard – a company makes it to purchase. I once mistakenly promoted a product where the company’s shopping cart malfunctioned!

You may also want to watch a friend or relative make the purchase. That way you can see if there is anything confusing about the process – on your website and/or on the company’s website. You can fix these things before you start sending traffic to your page.

Make sense?

Great question!

You know when you new in internet marketing is not that easy. so I'll think I have send a couple e mails to my friends and as them to buy whatever I promote in the e mail just so i don't get my account shut down. Because I don't know what else I have to do. thanks for the info Sal! this is do true Ben I also have a website thru you guys
