		<description>Great article Peter! I think you have hit the nail on the head with the dup content analysis. 

If you are simply re-posting an offer without adding value to it, your effort is probably in danger of hitting the Big G trashcan. 

I don&#039;t fault google at all on this. Who wants to read the same pitch over and over again? I mean look at our email boxes? How many times do I need to go see a Frank Kern pitch? Do some searches with some kws that you know affiliates are targeting. It is all dups and all garbage. 

Google knows the offers, knows the pitches, knows the trails, and they know the sequence. If you are not doing anything usefully different why should google participate in something which does nobody a service?</description>

		<description>Doug,

I think it could yes. I think as marketers we need to try to improve our processes for sure.

I think ultimately, having your own product and selling as an affiliate in the back end may be the best long term business model.

Glad to hear from you Doug :-)

		<description>Very interesting!  Q: Do you think an affiliate site offering direct download to a product would be viewed as an affiliate bridge page?</description>
