why did you get into this in the first place? what's your experience? what's you passion?
for me it's too loaded. Pick two or maybe three affiliate programs at the absolute most.
It also looks like you've built the site with a website package called Site Build It (SBI). if you're wondering why it doesn't work, then you've just blown a whole load of money on a website package that doesn't work instead of paying month to month for a blog.
I hope you haven't used SBI! I hope you didn't fall for all that hype
anyway back the the affiliate programs. You seem to pull people in a thousand different directions with sign up links, this link that link, i was just overwhelmed.
visually, it looks.......kinda hard sell....a bit lifeless. there's no warmth, no pictures of you, just graphics obviously chosen form a professional site.
Now don't get me wrong, i'm not perfect and there's a lot about my blogs that could be done better, but i's say, if you are using SBI ditch it, go to hostgator, buy a $6.95 (i think) hosting package, get a professional looking blog, and start blogging about you and your experiences.
get rid of the clutter, let me see some articles, instead of three hundred adverts on each page. It's like those magazines you get nowadays. Thicker than the Bible (no disrespect), costs a fortune, you get 3 pages of new and articles and the rest is adverts. I hate those magazines.
Join a few golfing forums and find out what people want and if you don't see any comments about "junior golfing" then don't do it because no one is interested in it.
Before i got my blog up, i spent three months on 4 different forums, then I went for it.
I target very low key products, and as such I don't get much traffic, but I've done alright on the money, considering my commissions are so low.
I never thought that I could retire on what I'm doing now, but i'm enjoying myself. And my ARTICLES get a lot of traffic from relevant forums and other sites.
But I have some work to do. This is what Lynn said about my blog

so i'm not claiming to be perfect. Let's recap because i can go on a bit.
1) Join three golfing forums at least, and try and find out if anyone is talking about junior golf. Join, participate and enjoy talking about your passion! this is me participating in a forum, if the moderators will allow me to show you.
i'm captainnewbie. look at the headphones in my 'current collection' in my signature. unfortunately that was a few months ago, and you can add a fair few more to that list.

and another. here i'm mattski73

get in the forums and start participating.
2) Where are you? put a picture up, an amateur picture even. show us you're human.
this is an unfinished page, and the pictures are rubbish, but it's me it's real and you can see me with the headphones on, so people know that I know what i'm talking about, and it's not a load of (pardon the phrase) bull, to get people to p[art with their money.
you can even see my cut finger from trying to open the packaging. does it help conversion? I haven't a clue, but i've done it more than once, and it's real, and it's my blood....what the heck stick it in!

3) help people beyond the usual garbage advice. 'How to choose this' "how to use that' write you own reviews on the products you have, the courses you've been to, the golf shirts you wear.
if i spent $100 on a golf shirt, i'd want to know what the quality is like. If I spent $300 on a golf club (you can see i know nothing about golf) i'd want to know how it feels in your hand, how heavy it is, what's the handle like.
This is stuff you need to find out from the forums you join. If i had $200 what golf club would you buy and why? what golfing ebook would you buy adn why? review golf ebook A, and golf ebook B. Give me your point of view.
anyway i've got to go and draw some naked people (life drawing for my Drawing and image making degree) all images are certificate
U because i don't (want to) put any details in, if you catch my drift.

good luck, and as usual i hope i haven't been too hard. my wife tells me i'm good at being tactless.......well at least i'm good at something.
all the best!
