    I signed up for one of the "4u" (think it was called that..) mobile phone affiliate websites a few years ago and I actually did make some money out of it for doing absolutely nothing - probably about £100 in total, but that was over at least 18 months.

    I had absolutely no idea (or budget) on how to properly drive people to the site though and eventually it just dried up so I got rid of it.


    It really is difficult to find something to do that actually works!

    Tell me about it. I did eventually try again with another thing, but it went the same way. It was a guy selling premium rate phone lines like gambling tips lines, horoscopes, dating - stuff like that.

    The idea was that you'd get a cut of the money that the line brought in. Once again, no idea about (or budget for) advertising so that also fell by the wayside.
