There's nothing wrong in promoting products that you don't use and affiliate marketers have been doing it ever since affiliate networks arrived on the scene.

Sharmila, that is exactly how I feel. If someone were to tell me, "Hey, buy this $99 system because it is awesome," my first reaction would be to ask how it assisted them personally.

I prefer to promote products that I have used for some time. Then I am in a better position to answer questions about the product.
