I posted this question at the SBI site but I love my little "family" here so I thought I would get your advice as well.
I am still writing content to get to my 30 pages (working on page 6, hopefully uploaded tonight) so I have not yet done anything to monetize my site. I plan on using affiliates, Adsense, and possibly dropshipping.
But as I am writing the content pages I am talking about different products, which are good, what to look for...and in some cases mentioning where you can get these products. Later I plan to apply to the affiliate programs for the companies that sell these products, but I was wondering if I should just go ahead and link to their websites (opening in a new window) for now, specifically right to the product I am describing, so visitors reading my content can see more about the product.
Right now I am looking at it as it would be just a nice service to my visitors...later on, once I have the affiliate programs in place I can just change the link to my affiliate link.
Is it too soon to link out of my website like this? On SBI someone mentioned to me just to go ahead and sign up for the affiliate programs. I have a whole list of affiliates I want to sign up for..but I was thinking that with the small amount of pages I have I would probably get rejected and that I do need a quantity and quality of content for the approval.
So I guess I have three choices questions here...
should I put in a customer service link to future affiliate sites....
should I go ahead and just sign up for the programs and link to those sites....
or should I keep building content with no links for the time being until I am ready to affiliate, then go back and put in all the links
