I’ve been in the online game since ‘98 trading and selling traffic on my link lists and directories.Some wait weeks. Most wait months and even a year. Might be a good idea to start learning everything and sign up for some of these other sites while you wait
I only work with private affiliate networks now. Signed up for Amazon Merch for something I want to test. Was approved but don’t even know if I’ll end up using it.
But I agree that people shouldn’t use the wait as an excuse to not jump in.
