Ok well, i'm going to ignore that post, anyone else that can help me? I care very little for people who think themselves so intelligent that they talk down on other users. I'm new to web building and i just wanted some help on starting an affiliate website, and i don't need some dude coming in here who thinks he's wise. Or maybe he thinks hes cool since he used the cool smiley on his post, hmm. But in the end if nobody will offer any advice, i'll figure it out myself.

Hey Vigato

I think what Vasili was trying to say is that you need to define your question a bit better.

You can place your affiliate url as links on your site.

What is your site about and what companies have you joined as an affiliate? To be successful in most affiliate programs you will need to have a Niche Site, something that is a bit different from the rest. If you try to compete with Big companies that have cornered all the best Keywords on the market, you will struggle.

This forum is a great place to learn. You do not need Soholaunch to get started. Pick a specific affiliate and create a theme based website around the concept. But define your questions well in the forum to get the best answer. All the best and good luck.

Quite right, Phil.....it is impossible to review or contrast simply all the vast differences in available software foundations here at VodaHost without knowing even the most basic details of a website plan, the model upon which to follow, or intention of the User: do you want to have a website using Blue Voda that is easily managed and offers more "creative control" with regard to layout, form, and diversity or functionality; or, is a specific list of additional or specialized features that may be naturally included with other more sohpisticated foundations (such as a cart or CMS) more beftting the grand plan for your "affiliate site"??

These considerations (and many more) will help to predicate which tool and technology might best be suited as a suggested solution for your intentions.....

* One of the first "Tutorials" suggested in the Account Welcome Email is "Getting Started - How to Plan Your Website" and I naturally assume most people think it important enough to at least consider the concept!

There are far too many knowledge-rich resources in these forums to ignore rather than reviewing prior to posting in such an ill-defined manner only to feel slighted at the lack of a detailed response ...... I am more than capable of offering help where help is needed (especially when it comes to Affiliate Marketing, as the Community is well aware), but I am miserable when it comes to painting in the air and reading minds!

Hi Vigato,

Just use the basic BlueVoda website builder function for your affiliate site. It's very easy to use and to build your pages. There are video tutorials for every kind of feature you want to use.

There is no need to get more confused than necessary. I know how you feel...I've been there myself.

Good luck with everything!

Best regards,
Boris
