I finally downloaded a copy of the Super Affiliate Handbook yesterday, and did a quick skim. It's definitely chock full of info, and I look forward to digging in. One thing I noticed, though, is that the example affiliate sites that Rosalind shares (e.g., roamsters.com) are essentially what I would call monetized blogs. I'm looking to create one of these as my kind of flagship site for my niche, too.

However, I'm wondering if that is typical of the type of affiliate sites that those of you who've found success in affiliate marketing build. The other type of affiliate site I'm familiar with is more of a mini-site with a fairly small amount of content that doesn't really get updated like a blog. The notion, I guess, is that it's kind of a "build it and forget it" type of site that just drives people to the product sales page.

Does it make sense to pursue a mixture of these different type of sites? Would you recommend going one way or the other first? I'm just curious to hear other's experiences with these two approaches.

Thanks in advance!
