Starting my first site

[Mike]

For those experience with affiliate marketing. I want to make my own website on guitar lessons. Would it be profitable to have free guitar lessons on the site, and have affiliate links to related products (of course explaining the products, and which ones I suggest). Then I was thinking of having a section of reviewing guitar programs online. Would I be heading in the right direction? Thanks.

Mike - this sounds great. Just one thing. Be careful posting about your site on these boards, as people steal ideas. I was on one forum and this guy was making a fortune from one of his sites. Well he told everyone about it on the forum and a short while later - two sites almost identical to his sprang up.

You should be ok in your niche though, as I imagine it requires some specialist knowledge. My brother plays the guitar - he is only 11, but he goes onto a website a lot to use the music to popular songs there for free. What he also does is to download a lot of rock music. If you could also have pay for download music on your site, or even links to it - that may be another idea.

Now, free guitar lessons I'm not sure about - as i don't know how they work online.
