Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I know a bit about it like…write what you know,(find your niche), they are simple and sometimes free to set up (Blogger, Tumblr, ectr) ,you can make money thru advertising like AdSense, AdGenta, Text Link Ads or thru affiliate programs , Im not going to get rich overnight or maybe never , it can take alot of work to be successful
What Im looking for is a website that can teach me the basics for beginners, I googled ” blogging for beginners free” and was OVERWHELMED by the number of responses. So.can anyone recommend a beginner friendly website that teaches step by step tutorial style for blogging?
Please no haters or judgmental people need answer
Thanks in Advance

I tried searching for online courses but couldn’t find the one that I wish to study. There are so many different diploma courses and degrees offered by institutions that I don’t know where to start. Someone recommended IT course but it’s too competitive in the present job market situation.
Study abroad is also another good option and choosing which country to apply is not easy. There are so many information on the net that sucks because most of them are affiliates promoting and selling something.
Is there any reliable sites that really provide genuine information on degree course and private education?
Thank you very much!

What would be a profitable niche or micro-niche?

I will be buying a GTX 570 classified in the first part of next month. If you have an affiliate code do you still get EVGA bucks? I don’t have one. I am simply looking for someone that does.

I recently started a tank a couple weeks ago and got 7 fish to house in it. 2 dalmation mollys, 1 balloon molly, 1 albino pleco, 1 albino cory catfish, 1 gold dojo loach, and 1 silver dollar fish. When I got them I was told the mollys are schoolers (so I got 3) but the woman said nothing on the silver dollar, which I’ve read now is also a schooler. He’s well tempered and mellow, and similarly sized to the mollys, and seems to get along well with the others. Will he integrate into their schooling niche or should I be concerned that I need more?
