The time it takes to earn your first commission in affiliate marketing depends on how active you are and where you're promoting. If you're just getting started and using free traffic like social media or blog posts, it might take a few weeks or even months. You need to build up some content and have people clicking your links before sales happen. If you already have an audience or use paid traffic the right way, things might move faster. But in most cases, people see their first result after some trial and error. The important part is to keep testing and learning. Has anyone else noticed how long it usually takes for the first sale?
