So, you joined Afflift? I guess you want to learn something about affiliate marketing? You are in the right place. When I wrote this post in November of 2023., Afflift had almost 100,000 members, more than 10,000 threads and almost 130,000 messages.

With so much content lying around, you might be overwhelmed with information. So, I’ve made a list of a few threads that might help you.

This list wasn’t supposed to be this long (you’ll find more than 100 threads here), and I’m sure there are many great threads that have been left out (or some new ones that I haven’t added in the meantime).

Keep in mind that these are my personal favorites. There are many great threads here, but for now, I’ve decided to pick these.
