Have you heard of YourHub? Affiliates take notice!
The site is called YourHub, and it is a national site with local applications. You first go to the website at www.yourhub.com and select your city, state and so forth. Then the main site transports you to the local site in your city. After that you are free to register (free of course), and then you can open a blog and post articles about things that might be of interest to people in your community.
They also offer a stories section for full sized articles or stories that you might want to use to promote your affiliate retail stuff. Now, it is important not to use this type of service to just post commercial stuff. I try to write articles that will be of interest to others about sports events, baseball, football or whatever. Travel is great, local getaways and the like. Within the content you are free to build links to websites, so that is where you can place contextual links to sites you have made, or to your affilate sites to hopefully sell whatever might relate to the articles you write.
Yourhub also offers cheap or free classified ads. This is a wonderful service and of course you can post free ads, but for just $500 you can have the top of the heap listing and have your new classified ad posted on ALL HUBS. I am just starting this, and I have placed one test ad to see if I can figure out how to sell through this medium. They allow links and images in the classifieds, so it is easy to do and perfect for white hat marketers like me. I have placed one ad advertising a road bike I selected from one of my affiliate merchant partners.
I live in Lakewood, Colorado so there is a very active hub for my city, but since I chose to place my paid ad on all hubs, and since people ride bikes in all cities, I stand a good chance of selling some bikes through this well read, high traffic online social network. I suggest that you might add this to your arsenal of white hat sites.
