Promoting too many offers on a website can be confusing to visitors, and dilute your efforts.  Focus on one product/service at a time, and limit you offerings to more than three.  With these numbers you can devote the necessary time and coverage to adequately promote them.  Your profitability will be better served.

Visitors to your website can become frustrated if you are promoting too many products or services.  Start with one product or service affiliate relationship.  When you have reasonably perfected promoting it, and your financial rewards are to your liking, then move on to the next offering.  In most instances you should limit the number of affiliate offerings to three.  When you present more than three you begin to loose the interest of potential clients.

The presences of too many affiliate links will give your visitors the impression you are more interested in making money for you than helping them solve their problem.  The addition of affiliates should be a compliment to your proposal of the solution to their need.  The link to an affiliate may well be the answer, but you must make sure there is sufficient information preceding it to give them some measure of confidence you have their needs upper most in your mind.

In addition to promoting too many products don’t try to cute, or be sneaky, in your presentation.  Be honest in your dealings.  That way you won’t ever have to apologize.  You most likely won’t have to return someone’s money either.  Be sure that the products you do promote are ones you’ve tested yourself.  If their not good enough for you, they most likely aren’t good enough for your visitors either.   You’ll also be in position to talk to them in your posts and articles about your own experience and satisfaction with what you are promoting.  For heaven’s sake, don’t promote useless products.  A fast buck with a product that is promoted just for the bucks will come back to haunt you.  You don’t want to loose faith and trust from your visitors or clients.
