I'm still building my site, I can promote most any product or service that a normal consumer may use. I would like to know if there is a way to find my first affiliate links to use that dont require approval from the big networks like CJ, etc. I know many of them reject because of no traffic when starting out, as well as a fully constructed site, but I need to pick a few and get used to the tech side of doing everything. And i really would like links inside banners, but I think many wont let you edit the banners like that ? I have a free domain that i can practice on also.
I have one link from my hosting company, but would like to check out a few more that give you the link right away. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Barb

Clickbank does not reject affiliate applications unless your location is not included in their list. If you don't want to be a member of an affiliate network, you could contact the merchants directly and register on their affiliate programs.

ClickBank makes it very easy to get started - once you're signed up you can create hoplinks (what CB call affiliate links) in about two minutes flat!

While I generally recommend affiliate marketers concentrate on building a solid site that aims to sell products, there are also other monetization methods such as AdSense, which can be a good option for a site with a lot of traffic.
