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?
from 0 to $2k/month: my first year in affiliate marketing
