As affiliate marketers prepare across the Internet to cash in on holiday sales, expect them to start not on Black Friday, but the Monday after Thanksgiving. A lot of research gives credibility to the idea that shoppers shop and research Friday in stores, and come back and make their purchases on the Monday after Thanksgiving.

You will probably start making money at or around Black Friday (if you haven’t already started making money for the holiday season), but Cyber Monday will be the biggest day of the year for many Affiliate Marketers. Prepare your campaign, if you use PPC, get your keywords and niches targeted and researched, and get ready to have some fun, because Cyber Monday is soon approaching.
