I wish I'd seen it sooner! Having a hyperactive conscience, I've struggled with using a pseudonym. I fall under the "safety issues" category and you are the first person I've seen address this at all. I appreciate your suggestions in the last paragraph of your article: they might help me "own" my pseudonym, stop feeling like a liar and get down to business. I would love any suggestions for dealing with social media using a pseudonym: posting photos, videos, dealing with Facebook, etc. Thank you for this post, Ros … I wish I’d seen it sooner!

If your not proud of what your doing.........don't do it!!! Ed It’s little wonder that anyone who was as unethical as to steal and lie would look to do it “anonymously”.

I'm getting started with the affiliate business and I'm not sure if I should expose my real identity. On one hand - affiliate partners are real people that want to deal with people, not made-up characters. On the other hand - I wouldn't want to get associated with affiliate marketing because some of those partners might become my employer one day. What do I do?

Love it! Whatever the reason may be --- as long as your happy with your decision is all that's really important. And isn't it something to find out that people enjoy your writing. That really makes you want to carry on. Knowing that helps me sit down to write most days. :-) Keep up the good work! Cheers, Ros Hi Annie,

Turns out that most people enjoy my writing and I have acquired a little following. I am still glad I did it though, I think it is cuter than my real name. After reading your Super Affiliate Handbook cover to cover just this week, I am getting ready to re-vamp some things on my blog and go from casual blogger to Super Affiliate blogger!! Thanks for all the great advice, I hope our travels cross paths one of these days. Annie Ros,

Definitely, it would still hide your real identity. Yeah, why not use code names or pen names instead of being anonymous? Definitely, it would still hide your real identity.

To me, it's like being in a fishbowl in terms of having every comment I've ever written easily traceable no matter how harmless it maybe. I recently read an article that highlights this even further. It's pretty sad that this is happening here in the USA. http://www.lvrj.com/opinion/47141327.html I write under a pseudonym as both my birth name and married name are so unique that I’m the only one in the world with it according to online data statistics.
