not some guru post, just sharing what actually happened

started with basically nothing, no audience, no money

first 3 months = 0$ lol

then slowly figured things out:
- niche matters more than you think
- traffic is everything
- consistency > quick wins

fast forward ~1 year and im doing around $122k/month

not life changing money but solid start

curious if anyone else here is doing affiliate stuff

what worked for you?
