If you have known me for some time, read my forum, my blog, or have seen my videos, then you know how much I stress the importance of creating unique quality content for your affiliate websites. If you really want your websites to generate a good amount of money every month, then I encourage you to get that it IS an emergency and that you MUST start creating unique content and articles for your websites!
A couple of years ago I was earning and nice monthly extra income from Google AdSense; but just like that almost overnight I went from making an average of an extra $1000 per month to an average of $150 per month. I had done nothing different; however, all of the sudden my income dropped drastically.
I immediately started researching why that had happened; now, I could give you a long story, I could start pointing fingers, making up excuses, etc. OR, I can take responsibility and tell you that I was lazy, that I took the extra income I was making every month for granted because it was coming fairly easy. You see, I knew I had to create content for my websites but I just didn’t feel like it.
The reason why I keep telling people that they should create unique and quality content for their websites, is because I don’t want you to go through the same thing I went through. A couple of months ago eBay started changing their affiliate program, eBay now just like Google then it is starting to get strict about the quality of websites that send traffic to them.
Here’s a small part of an e-mail that I recently received from the eBay partner network:
"Engagement" is how we look at a user’s experience on eBay once directed via an affiliate link. Among other metrics, we look at the time that users spend on eBay, the number of pages that they view, and their bidding and buying activity after coming through an affiliate link.
Tips to improve engagement:
If you pay close attention to this e-mail, I hope you get how critical it is that you actually spend some time every day generating new and unique content for your affiliate websites. Or else, you could end up losing your eBay partner network affiliate account and any potential future income that you could be making.
Now; this not only applies to the EPN program, there are many other affiliate networks out there that pay close attention to the kind of traffic they are receiving.
The best way you can go about to creating your affiliate websites, is to actually focus on creating quality websites with quality information that will benefit and empower your visitors instead of focusing on making money. This is probably the best thing that you can do for your online business.
If instead of focusing on making money, you focus on providing value, service, quality content, and information, I promise you that you will be making more money than what you are making right now and what’s even more important, you will be creating a good reputation for yourself and long-term relationships with people that could potentially generate you residual income for years to come.
So go out there and start serving and empowering people with your great quality and unique content.

Good information. In am finding the more effort (new information) I put into my website, the more traffic I get. When I slow up, so does the traffic.

@ normz2, very good point, I hope everyone takes action to continuously add content to their websites.
Yes, I agree. Unique content is very important to get targetted and good traffic since when somebody searches for a particular keyword which is included in our unique content then our domain will show up in top 10 else it will show many articles from several domain.
