How far are you willing to go to get a job? More than half of us admit to lying on our resumes at some point — about 51% of women and 60% of men.

That could have been as many as 42.5 million people in 2022, according to a survey of more than 1,700 Americans by StandOut CV. The resume services company asked people who were employed or who had previously been employed about lying on resumes, about their references or in interviews.

• High school details: 39.2%
• Salary information: 33.6%
• Job-specific software or equipment skills: 33.5%
• Employer references: 21%

Affiliate marketing is one of the most known (and most lucrative) ways to earn money online.

However, not every blogger can generate a good income from affiliate commissions.

I tell you more, with almost 2 billion websites out there (source “internet live stats“), many will not even be able to generate a single sale.

But let’s look at the glass as half full.

Indeed, many bloggers have taken affiliate marketing a step further and have devoted their entire professional lives to working online.

I’m sure it’s the dream of many of you.

But what turns a good affiliate into a great affiliate?

In truth, there is no easy answer, as the range of potential products and services that can be promoted through affiliate marketing means that there has been an equally diverse range of practices and methods used to exploit it.

If you’re completely in the dark about this whole
