I work hard on my web site. In fact, I work on it almost daily. And I work hard on my weekly e-zine. But then I sit back and think, Hmmmm is anyone really visiting my web site?” And that’s all I do. I don’t think to track too much. This is really not a smart way to handle your business. Since I started I-MarketingZONE I have learned a lot about marketing. I have to. I have to keep up with all the current trends in Internet marketing and web site promotion. That’s what my visitors expect me to do. And I use most of the things that I learn. But I’ve forgotten the most important elements tracking and testing.

It’s very important to keep track of which affiliates are producing an income for you. And I don’t mean by waiting for a quarterly statement like I did. By then you’ve spent a lot of time and money on something that may not be working. What you need to do

Affiliate surprise can be fun when you get a notice like I did today, but if you get a notice where you are producing nothing, then you’ve probably wasted 3 months on something that you could have been doing different.
