Jason Calacanis attacking Affiliate Marketers at Affiliate Summit 2008

Posted by | Posted in Affiliate Marketing | Posted on 01-03-2008

If you have been to Affiliate Summit 2008 in Las Vegas you might have heard about the Controversial keynote speech by Jason Calacanis. I didn’t get a chance to attend the summit but maybe next year. Jason Calacanis co-founder of Weblogs which made headlines last years after selling to AOL, quoted like this

“Affiliate marketing is bullshit. Thank you.” and “Anyone here from PayPerPost? You need to kill yourself. I’m kidding. Well, I wouldn’t mind it if you did.”

This is his stunt to gain popularity which I think is not ethical blaming affiliate marketers as spammers.

We affiliate marketers toil hard to be successful making money online through affiliate marketing need determination and handwork and we are proud in doing that. Jason if you think affiliate marketing is all about spamming then why big companies like Amazon, Yahoo and Microsoft all offer these affiliate programs.

Attacking Super affiliate like Shoemoney & Zac Johnson about posting their high earned checks on their website is just jealousness on part of Jason or just trying to get cheap attention. For an average affiliate marketer it is inspiration and hopes to make money online.

The bottom-line is what ever Jason Calacanis intention is affiliate marketing is the only opportunity out there for anyone who can make a living online rather than dreaming of becoming next Bill Gates or a dream job at Silicon Valley.
