I’m in a rut and I can’t get out of it. I’m in an affiliate marketing rut. I go up and down and side to side. If something doesn’t work or you put a hole week building and planning to make sure you are doing it right fails…. You go in a rut. I’m in a rut.
Very difficult to get really motivated when you’re in a rut. I was doing good early this year, I had an offer that was generating 2-5 leads per day just on SEO traffic. I could work on other things and watch that small amount of money come in. Then it quit, the advertiser wanted me off of it. I swear I wasn’t doing anything wrong. They didn’t like my domain that I was earning my leads from. 
So what do I have going for me right now? I am jumping on the bandwagon of one area and going to throw myself into it. I am taking the slow road though. Here is what I’m doing.
1. Building the domain (search engine friendly)
I want google and yahoo and msn to like me first. I didn’t want to buy a domain, throw a LP on it and run with it. I wanted to build it up first and make a landing page on the site instead of the whole site.
2. Spy
Yes I’m using a spy tool called Affiliate Espionage. The tool is only $10 so why not try it out. I’m still spying and waiting a full 2 weeks to get results. Like I said I’m taking it slow. Let’s see if I can use this tool correctly and find some winners.
3. Landing Page
I am taking time to build a nice looking landing page. I’m not just whipping something up there to hope that it works. I’m taking my time with this.
With that in mind let’s hope this campaign can get me out of a funk. It’s kind of depressing to be rolling along and making a few bucks here and there without tweaking or changing anything and then boom they are all gone. Do you have any tips on how to get out of a rut like this?

Nice post!
Before Amped Media, I was just an everyday publisher with my niche. When an advertiser would complain regarding my quality or the traffic source would dry up, I would feel the same way.
The way I recovered was, I took a little time off.
I found that as I tried to recover I would make retarded mistakes, clearing my mind helps.
But, good list of tools. You will do fine.
Thanks Jonathan,
I have taken a huge break as you can see by the 2 months between posts and the ZERO dollars in my Amped account
