I have been on a number of calls, webinars, teleseminars…. you name it, over the last month where the discussions loop back around to whether affiliate marketing is going to survive the “new way” Google is allowing adwords to be used within their system. There are many who think it’s going to be incredibly tough going, including Perry Marshall and Amit Mehta.
However, I just read a terrific rebuttal by Ben Moskel. A couple of things he points out are:
- Most affiliates that are being banned have been promoting biz-opps that have “Google” in the name of the product
- The lawyers of Google have told the company to crack down or they will lose the foothold of protecting their brand
- Google still sells adspace to affiliate marketers who are selling a product or service other than a “biz-opp”, and he provides examples of who some of them are
- He also discusses the approaches that he’s used effectively – so go take a look at www.perrymarshall.com/
Then, please come back and tell me what you think! I’d love to hear your perspective….
