How long does it take to grow an affiliate business online?

How can you you grow your affiliate business without spending a fortune on advertising?

Hmm... would be glad to help you out but I'm not sure if you mean:

1. you are an affiliate marketer and want to grow your business, or
2. you own a product and want to promote it using affiliates marketing?

If you can clarify that question, I'll be glad to expand my answer here.

Building an online business involves gaining exposure for your affiliate products. Exposure means your website links get in front of your target audience regularly. In this way, this audience becomes familiar with your offerings. The more they see links, which lead them your way, the more likely they will be to head that way.

Hi all...
I think if want to grow your business than you have to advertise online as well as offline so lots of people come to about your business.
If people come to know about your business than they make an inquiry after your that your business slowly get international.
