Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I am making a game studio called Arasen studios and i am trying to go around the internet promoting it but it has not been working well.

I’m looking to promote as an affiliate marketer. Can someone guide me what would be some good niche markets to promote?

WHERE CAN I LOOK TO FIND DETAILED INSTRUCTION ON HOW TO PROMOTE AN AFFILIATE LINK IN ORDER TO HAVE TARGETED TRAFFIC AND MAKE A PROFIT.

I’m just looking for some better ways to promote my affiliate links from the networks that I use, my personal site and social networking via Facebook and Twitter do not seem to be providing me with very good results thus far.

I’ve seen SEM firms like google willing to promote your site for $500 – $150,000!!! Or I can just hiring an individual SEO who can help promote my site for me. And of course, do my research making sure the individual SEO will be doing their job bringing traffic etc. My question is besides one being bigger than the other, which should be good for affiliate websites? Would SEM be good for larger corporations like Redbull since they have all the money to spend for marketing & advertising like $150K?
