yes they’re right. I didn’t pay any attention to whether it was a template or not, I just was answering the question of whether you would make more money by spending what capital you have towards getting SEO, or towards getting affiliates.
And I can assure you, you would make more money getting affiliates than you would spending for SEO, because one way you’d be getting search engine traffic thru one source (your site) instead of getting traffic from a huge multitude of sites which all get search engine traffic.
but you’ve got to have something that people are willing to promote.
Sorry bout that.
