Product Name: Affilorama

Owner: Mark Ling

Website URL: affilorama.com

Price: Starter – Free, $67 per month or $497 for 3 years (Try Premium for one month for $1)

Affilorama was founded in 2005 by Mark Ling. He started out as a merchant. He created a training program for affiliates to promote his product. Over time that program evolved into Affilorama.

The idea was to help people who wants to make money online with Affiliate Marketing. And that is by training via a web based course with over 100 hours of training videos. The program also offers tools to help people to have a higher chance of success.

• 20 hours of video lessons and written material
• Learn how to create own website
• Learn how to write content for website
• Learn how to do SEO to get your website ranked on search engines
• PPC Advertising to attract visitors to your website and convert them into customers

• All of basic plus more in depth content and additional training
• Hosting for 15 of your websites
• How to create your own products
• PLR articles to use (though this is not so good, read Final Word below for more info why)
• Bootcamp training

The Basic membership does not get you much. You will need to upgrade and become a premium member to get more training, applications, limited hosting, and newsgroup access. You will also get extras like link building, blog boot camp, Premium tools, website hosting and PLR content.

Still, the cost of premium is expensive. And there is also the matter of upsells. Yes, you will need to buy more products to get more useful training and tools.

– bundle contains 13 lessons, 85 videos covering topics such as affiliate marketing, niche marketing and research, free traffic, etc.

– Suitable for those who want complete package for building a business

– Step by step instructions on everything from building your own website, SEO, niche selection to content creation

I would like to highlight about support for this program. Don’t be mistaken. You will need support. Especially if you are new to starting your own online business.

You will need great support to help you navigate all the steps required to start your own website, how to find a niche, how to do SEO, and so much more.

The thing is, at Affilorama, while you do get support that is available in the forums and a team of customer service staff, you do not get direct access to Mark Ling. To be fair, he is an extremely busy man. He does drop by occasionally to provide some insights.

• Free Training Access (for Basic)
• Simple to follow courses
• Helpful communities
• Start a business, do some research for Free (for Basic)
• Owner is very well respected in the business world

• Many choices that make it hard to decide which is the plan to have
• Basic plan is very limited in comparison with the paid plans
• No direct access to Mark Ling
• Too many upsells that can confuse beginners
• Expensive upsells

The Affilorama Review – Scam or Legit?

Timotheus Final Thoughts

So, Is Affilorama A Scam?

No it’s not a scam.

The training in the Premium package is quite good. But the problem with this program is that there are too many upsells. As a beginner, this can be confusing. Also, considering all that is offered in the Premium package, you may find that you are not getting much for your money.

But a word of caution – do not do or use the PLR provided. The articles created using PLR will not rank well as search engines have gotten wise to this strategy to create content. In fact, use of PLR may result in getting your website blacklisted by the search engines, and essentially do harm to your business.

VERDICT: Legit

While I say Legit, I must also share with you that there are similar programs out there that offers much more value for money, and is much better in terms of training, service and support. One of them is Wealthy Affiliate. It is my Number One Recommendation for anyone who wishes to start an online business or do affiliate marketing.
