For years, part of my career and my livelihood has been writing content for various affiliate marketing websites I own and writing articles for some “how-to” and blog websites. I read that statement, “write about what other people are looking for,” yesterday in a post at a forum I frequent regularly. Of course I’ve known the truth in the statement for a long time, ever since I started trying to do keyword research and trying to find ways to get visitors to come to my websites.

I hang out online at some forums where there are lots of people doing affiliate marketing — most of them doing much better at it than I — and I work at it myself daily. (Some days I do much better than others.)

My overriding concern would be that I might give someone bad medical or health related advice, opening them to harm and myself to a lawsuit. So, for what it’s worth, here are some things I would try to do if I were to market diet pills, nutritional supplements, weight loss products, or even personal fitness equipment online:

A lot of savvy people go there, people far more successful at affiliate marketing than I. But I’m constantly learning things there, so that’s good.

We’ve been going through sort of a double-whammy of family crises the last week or so, but things are getting better. It becomes very hard for me to concentrate on any serious writing projects with such distractions, so I suppose my head has turned away from my writing right now and toward the marketing.
