Hi Joey,
Welcome to Affiloblueprint!
The best piece of advice I can give you is to follow the course through until the very end. Maintain your focus and do your best not to get sidetracked by new programs or products. I noticed that this is where most new affiliate marketers fail. They keep going after the newest shiny thing and this is bad for both their site and their finances.
Now that you've decided on a course, stick with it, complete it and do your best to make it work before investing on another product/program.
Hope that helps. Have a good day!

Find a niche that works for you. When you find it, keep focusing on that niche... Do not go out and build more websites in other niches until you have completely maxed out that niche. That is my personal advice.
If I had to start over this is what I would have:
- a squeeze page.
- a newsletter that goes out every day.
- paid advertising
That's it.
Everything else is "nice to have" stuff that isn't fundamentally necessary.
For example, do you NEED search engine traffic? The answer is no. And if you are impatient, like me and don't want to put up with the fluctuating Google algorithm changes, then SEO is probably not the best approach for you.
Should you put affiliate links on your website? I did for a long time and made good money from it. But these days, I would rather have an email list and send them emails with links to products. By building a list you can market to people multiple times rather than just hoping that they click on a link once.
I am not saying that this is what YOU need to do. I'm just saying that it is what I needed to do.
Maybe you are an SEO genius. If that is the case, you should be focusing on SEO.
Maybe you are best with social media. If that is the case, that's where you should focus.
All I am saying is this is what has worked for me.
When it comes down to it though, I think it is all about focus. If you can focus on a specific niche and a specific traffic source and master them, you will be better off than trying to dabble in multiple ones.
Hope this helps.

Regarding niche, do you recommend following the top profitable niches list even if you don't know anything about it, or still choose something you're comfortable with? Which one (top niche list or passion niche) would earn for you faster now that you know the ins and out of the industry?

...my issue now is one of traffic.
I've been looking at forms of free traffic but the more I read on forums, the more it seems as though I am wasting my time going this route and that I should rather pay for traffic. My concern is that because my squeeze pages are very basic, I can't go the keyword or content rich route. So, how does one go about driving traffic to basic squeeze pages?

Also focusing on a few affiliate products helps a lot. Because when your audience is presented with more than 3 choices (in our case - affiliate products) they'll have hard time deciding which one to choose.
That is related to human psychology. Human mind likes having fewer choices when it comes to taking a decision.
Another advice for affiliate starters - keep your tools minimal in the beginning. The most basic tools which you need are
1) Landing page with opt-in form;
2) Email marketing tool;
3) Paid advertising to drive targeted traffic to your landing page.
That way you'll get started fast.

But i am still a little confused on the actual difference between a landing page and a squeeze page.
Lets say i have a Website/the core 'juice' of my buisness, where All 6 of the affiliate products i promote are listed. I place am Add on a social media site which offers a Free gift for entering their email. Now That would b the OptIn form, correct? And then once they enter their email address, they are taken to the SQUEEZE page where they are able to click on the button to download their free gift. Or is that considered the Landing page?
Either way, how do they end up getting redirected to my Website where the products im actually Selling/promoting are?
Oviously im new here.. Thank you.
