My First Post

Hello World!

This is the first post on my new blog that will follow my ups and downs as a new player in the extremely challenging world of affiliate marketing. I will detail problems I face along the way, I will where possible document as many pitfalls and work arounds as I can when I face them. I will document what is happening to my earnings as they (hopefully) start to grow, the only caveat to this is I will no jeopodise any earnings by going against ToS (Terms of Service) agreements, what this basically means is that I will not disclose any amounts I earn through the Google Adsense service as this would put my account in danger of suspension.

So anyway a little background:
My name is Mark, I live in Kent in England, I am married to Liz and we have two lovely girls by the name of Charlotte and Rebecca. I have dabbled in Affiliate marketing for the last 4 or 5 months but nothing serious (although I have put in lots of hours) recently I worked very hard to learn php and mySQL and now feel it is time to step up my affiliate marketing drive and see if I can make a decent living form this fantastic industry.

I will be posting snippets of code as I find ways around some of the common problems facing us noobies in both php and affiliate marketing. Please feel free to comment and improve my code, but do bear in mind that I am no professional coder, so if you use my code and it breaks your site don’t come shouting the odds, as I did warn you! Use any code and / or advise on this site at your own risk.

Well thats it for this post, I will be updating regularly so feel free to drop in anytime you like

Mark.
