I believe you can link to external websites if you're a YT Partner. Which probably excludes most people from using that tactic, or using it for very long at least.

Don't use adfly. It's honestly not worth it and I'd imagine it just makes people less likely to buy after that 5 second advertisement wait. That's just my opinion though.

You know, this made me think of something. Say you have a competitor website that you're trying to beat. What's to stop one from using a bunch of proxies and clicking his ads multiple times, thus skyrocketing his ctr and getting him flagged?

I'm in the same situation as you, except trying my inexperienced hand at affiliate marketing. You seem to be off to a pretty damn good start in my opinion though, and I'd expect that over the course of a month your traffic should increase drastically based on what you've gotten already. So...

Because by the time you realize you need to quit, it's pretty hard to do so. And I've read that most people, when imagining themselves in the future, subconsciously see themselves as another person. Someone else to have to deal with it in the future.
