Both. These days you really have to do your own SEO work in addition to what affiliates do because most affiliates today are promoting a lot of programs.

A lot of people don't mind as long as it's kept quiet.

How does it work around family?
For me I "hide" behind a little green cartoon character named Mister Peabody. LOL But it really does depend on what we're talking about here when it comes to family and what you do (or don't do).

I mean, an affiliate just sells porn, usually doesn't shoot it him or herself. But if we're talking being a performer, even an "amateur" one doing niche work, that's a whole differant ballgame.

For the affiliate or anyone "just selling" online porn I would say, if it's an issue, tell your family you do "online marketing". When they ask what you market start talking tech speak, like "Oh, I resell dedicated server packages from independant and network connected hosting companies, usually based offshore trying to break into the American upsell market via cross-promotional..." They're usually thinking about food by this point.

If you're a "performer" then, well, act outraged when Grandma says something, or Uncle Sleazy sees you on PornHub. "That's not ME!!! I'm gonna SUE!!!" Or just smile and shrug your shoulders....:D
