Forums are a fantastic place to find out what is happening in the affiliate world,
and free to join.

A variety of people visit forums. Information and news is free and all you have to do is listen in.

You will pick up a great amount of information as people talk about things they have tried and have worked, or where failures are and ask for help.

Check out article directories for good information. It’s another great place to learn internet marketing basics. It’s all free, and you have permission to republish stuff on your own website if you retain the author’s name and web links in the article.
Just be wary of a sales pitch within the article.

Be wary of paid resources offering affiliate courses.

If you are looking for a paid resource, you should look for one that is modestly priced, functions on a membership basis, recognizes that different marketers have different needs, but most of all offers ongoing help and instruction.

As the blog world is expanding, you can find lots of affiliate information in blogs.
And watch the comments or questions and perhaps ask a few yourself.

Marketing and home business electronic zines (ezines) offer a lot of affiliate information and their publishers know where to find it, that’s another idea.
