I don't advertise this AllanGardyne.com web site. It was created just for curious people like you.
I'm a former journalist. I live with my wife, Joanna, at Rainbow Bay, in sub-tropical Queensland, Australia.
(We usually spend summers in New Zealand and winters in Queensland, Australia.)
We now have three full-time employees and some part-time ones.

What does Allan Gardyne do?Joanna and I run AssociatePrograms.com, a comprehensive directory of affiliate or associate programs. It was launched in January, 1998.I set up a hobby/business on the Internet in 1996 because I wanted to be my own boss. Since then I've made a lot of mistakes and gone up a few dead-end alleys – failing forward, as the optimists say – and eventually quit my day job in December, 1998. We've turned a hobby into a thriving business which now has two full-time employees and a fluctuating number of part-time employees. I don't just write about affiliate programs. I work at this stuff. Nearly all of our revenue comes from affiliate commissions. You don't have to make the mistakes I did. Life's too short for that. To learn how you can make a good living with affiliate programs, subscribe to the Associate Programs Newsletter. It's crammed with insider tips and reviews of affiliate programs. I give tips from the winners – people who are earning good money TODAY – from affiliate programs.
You can subscribe to my newsletter and see the newsletter archives here:
KeywordWorkshop.com, run by Jay Stockwell, is another one. It's the most comprehensive site on the Internet for reviews of keyword research tools, which are essential for anyone who has a business on the Internet.
I also own a number of other affiliate-driven sites on a variety of topics. They derive their income from affiliate commissions and Google AdSense.
It's a nice way of living. You can live and work from wherever you like, being your own boss.
