-Advertising affiliate offers from Convert2media. ($1496 profit so far this month)

-Adsense/Lifestreetmedia on my Pirates FB app (Adsense: $29 this month. Lifestreetmedia: $47 this month) http://greenrobot.com/pirates

-Mopub, Inmobi and Facebook ads on my iOS and Android apps ($14 from Mopub this month)



I want to get into Affiliate Marketing (especially Mobile Marketing) but where ever I look, it seems like just scamming people off their money. Are there any ethical and legal offers you know of?. Not only white hat, I mean really ads that bring something a user wants and want to pay for, rather than the "lose 10kg in 2 weeks ebook".


The barrier to entry to almost nothing so the "industry" is extremely saturated and full of "work from home" and "passive income" pipe dreams. It's still a ton of work and research to start making any sort of consistent monthly income and it's not passive at all. You'll be constantly tweaking, testing, switching ads...creating new websites and content, etc. Warrior Forum and Wicked Fire are the main places to get a feel for what people are doing. You'll also get a feel for the other people in that space - they just have a scammy, creepy feel.


I don't really know about that. Right now I'm promoting muscle products. I've promoted diet products and email submits before.
