Hey guys,
I have been running a couple websites related to highly profitable niches
so far I was busy creating the content,so I haven't paid them much work. On the other hand, my content is almost completed.
My site functions as a luxury educational website on a highly demanded niche.
Soon it will be the time for it to launch! but until that happens, I still need to figure out how to make myself attractive to affiliates.
I have started talking with some affiliate networks since from my understanding they help with the API links and stuff,but also charge their
commission. Can it be done without 3rd party assistant? Or am I too greedy? 
Moreover, I think that if I can talk to affiliates directly, Like here in this forum duh, I can Price the products and the packages & provide
custom coupons based on the affiliate insights and experience, and of course better negotiation regarding the commission
Any thoughts or advises my friends? or maybe some teamwork? Much appreciated
