Show notes

Affiliate marketing can be a lucrative business. In fact, it's how I was able to quit my job over 9 years ago and I've been building sites, products, and running various online businesses ever since. However, when it comes to building a site like OwnTheYard.com (my Niche Site Project 4 site), it can be extremely risky. An affiliate site that is reliant on Amazon for its earnings and Google for its traffic really is at the mercy of businesses that are out of your control. Today I want to take a look at both the upsides and downsides of affiliate marketing and then what I think you can do to eliminate some of that risk.
