This is a warm invitation to freelance writers, book authors, and content startups to join this unique and supportive network and community at Digitalmehmet Content Ecosystem for FREE.
Dear subscribers, Today, I invite you to a new network I built at Digitalmehmet Content Ecosystem for affiliate marketers. It is for creators, freelance writers, book authors, or content startups. It is free and open to all authentic creators. Medium writers are also invited and can read this story there and show interest. Substack writers can read the invitation here.
I am an ardent supporter of values such as diversity, inclusion, and equality in society. In this economic climate, affiliate marketing can be a lucrative passive income stream for creators, and I will do my best to support creators in all walks of life in this journey using my integrated networks.
Like email marketing, revenue sharing, later named digital affiliate marketing, has been part of my professional life for decades. I have practiced it as part of my professional career, taught it to MBA students, and mentored hundreds of writers and bloggers to become better affiliate marketers.
Both books were born out of one conviction: affiliate marketing, when done thoughtfully and ethically, can create freedom, stability, and a healthier lifestyle for writers, creators, book authors, and content startups.
Money is not everything in life, but its absence creates stress that impacts both physical and mental health. Without economic independence, it is challenging to sustain creativity.
Writers know this better than anyone. Our words shape communities and influence culture, but words alone cannot guarantee financial independence. Affiliate marketing, when approached with good education, discipline, and integrity, can complement writing and turn passion into sustainable income.
There are also problems beyond our control. For example, NewsBreak and lately Medium have stopped the affiliate earnings of creators. We cannot do much about them, but we can do a lot with more options and a robust network with a supportive community.
Lessons That Shape the Affiliate Marketers Network
In one of my earlier articles, I emphasized that education is the first and biggest hurdle. Most affiliate marketers fail not because they lack talent, but because they start without adequate preparation.
A short, methodical training program, 20 to 50 hours of focused learning, can save years of frustration. That is why education will be at the center of the Affiliate Marketers Network. Members will not only get tools; they will learn how to use them responsibly and effectively.
In my books and articles about affiliate marketing, I also stressed the importance of experimentation. Theory alone cannot create results.
Writers must begin with one or two products they genuinely believe in, test their methods, and gradually build confidence.
The network will encourage members to start small, practice consistently, and share lessons with others so no one repeats the same mistakes in isolation.
A third principle is planning and adaptation. Just like writers revise drafts, affiliate marketers must revise their strategies.
Markets shift, audiences evolve, and products change. Through this network, creators will have a space to regularly update their plans and share what is working now, not just what worked yesterday.
Finally, I have always highlighted collaboration as a critical success factor. In affiliate marketing, as in writing, success multiplies when people support each other.
Testimonials, guest blogging, social sharing, and reciprocal promotion create a win-win momentum. The Affiliate Marketers Network is being built precisely to make such collaboration effortless and global.
How Writers, Authors, and Startups Benefit
From my decades of experience, I can say with confidence: writing skills and affiliate marketing skills are complementary.
Writers are already skilled at storytelling, persuasion, and empathy, all essential to affiliate success.
Writers will be able to publish long-form essays, blog posts, and newsletters that feature affiliate links naturally, without sounding like sales copy.
Book authors will extend their authority by recommending complementary books, courses, or tools, building curated libraries of value for their audiences.
Content startups will find a launchpad where they can gain visibility, learn SEO and GEO structures, build mailing lists, and grow without heavy financial investment.
The benefits go beyond money and wealth. Passive income contributes to health and well-being. It reduces stress, creates stability, and gives creators the freedom to focus on quality rather than chasing viral moments.
Scaling Beyond Individual Success
One of the most inspiring lessons I documented is that affiliate marketing can scale gradually without upfront investment.
I know people who began with zero capital, learned systematically through free resources, and built six-figure incomes within a year.
They retired young because they scaled their efforts with consistency, diligence, and a growth mindset.
But I have also seen the opposite. Those who gave up because they lacked guidance. That is why this network will exist: to reduce failure rates by giving writers and startups the structure, mentorship, and community they need.
It will also include decades of proven lessons, education, experimentation, planning, collaboration, and scaling into a living ecosystem where creators help each other succeed.
This will be a global phenomenon because it addresses what has been missing all along: trustworthy leadership, ethical standards, and a community-driven approach.
Instead of chasing hype, we will cultivate sustainability. Instead of feeding the ninety-five percent failure rate, we will lift writers, authors, and startups into the five percent who thrive.
As I concluded in my earlier article, affiliate marketing is not rocket science. With the right mindset, education, persistence, and support, every writer or blogger can succeed.
My vision is simple but ambitious: to make this success the norm, not the exception. This is why I am building the Affiliate Marketers Network.
The Affiliate Marketers Network will not be another platform. It will be a global classroom, a collaborative stage, and a sustainable income system for thoughtful and caring creators who deserve to thrive.
I will connect the Affiliate Marketers Network with Substack, Patreon, Medium, and my other platforms to make it a global service in 2026. So, you are welcome to join our exciting journey.
If you are new to Medium, you need to declare your affiliate links. I provided guidance in 2021, and many writers benefited from it.
Do you have a book that you’d like to have edited, published, and promoted?
If you are a book author, I offer editing, publishing, and marketing help to 100 experts as a pilot based on a revenue-sharing model without any upfront payment. 70 writers from Medium and 691 writers from Substack have already applied for it, but I cannot do more than 100 in 2026. I will scale it after the success of the pilot. I wrote a story about it lately.
People wonder how I can write so many books and become so creative and productive. The short answer is, I am a practical superlearner.
I invite you to join my community of superlearners. Over 80% of participants are over 50 years old, and they all keep their brains and minds sharp. Learning from each other can be empowering.
For a limited time, to build a big community, I’m offering an 80% discount on the monthly membership fee on Substack to build this joyful community. My goal is to help over a million members by the end of 2026, operating it on my own platform, Digitalmehmet Content Ecosystem, with assistance from Substack and Patreon.
What will the world look like in 2050 when emerging technologies in biology, artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and space exploration converge into one interconnected fabric of human and machine evolution?
In Technology Horizons 2050 and Beyond,I draw on five decades of work in technology, cognitive science, and global innovation to predict the coming five decades. I believe we will overcome our limitations and improve our health with the help of emerging technologies and scientific breakthroughs. I remain optimistic while some paint a pessimistic picture of the future.
The future will not wait for us to be ready. It will unfold in the minds of those who dare to see it before it arrives, who can stand at the intersection of science and imagination, and who have the courage to turn the improbable into the inevitable. This book is an invitation to be among them.
