2. Recommended Reading for Affiliate Marketers

There is a really good list of resources in the Wall Street Journal today, courtesy of Jay Berkowitz, CEO of Ten Golden Rules.

Jay mentions a number of books and sites, some of which I’ve read and others that are now on my to do list.

He also included a couple podcasts, Daily Search Cast from Danny Sullivan, and Affiliate Thing, co-hosted by Lisa Picarille and myself (thanks Jay!).

I’d like to add on Jay’s own podcast as one to include in your iPod. Great tips and compelling interviews.

The article is on page R2 of the Wall Street Journal today, and it’s also available on the Wall Street Journal Online.
