​I need some advice

So, to cut it short, I’m a teen, want to make some money online and have read, studied, tried and failed a few things with all the wrongs expectations. From the beggining of the year, instead of foccusing primarily on money, I foccused on improving my mental health and my personal life, wich led me to be much better and then start this journey again.

If you want a goal from me: I’d say around it would be to be making 10k/month in my adult years (early twenties I think would be a realistic goal), not because of all the guru’s hype about that mark, but more because I’ve journaled a lot about my ambitions for the future, and thay value sticked with me.

I’d say I’m now more realistic than ever, learned with my fails and plan on sticking to and succeeding in making money.

I’ve doing affiliate marketing for the last two months (well, consistently for almost one month, to be honest), and I need some advice about it.

I chose a niche wich interested me and wich I had a fair amount of knowledge about (my socials name is “Bedroom Enhancements”, I post decorations, for the bed, lighting, small gadjets, etc).

My main and only platform is Pinterest (although I’m starting a Tiktok next week, wich, for personal reasons, I can only start it then) and I’ve gottwn prwtry familar eith the platform, taking inspiration and knowledge from other creators/stores, youtube videos, etc.

I’ve been writting articles on Medium aswell and promoting them on Pinterest.

I use Temu as the store from wich I promote my products, for it has been the easiest, and the only one, that I’ve found untill now.

I haven’t gotten many clicks on the products I promote. I know Pinterest’s more about hoping people click on what you post and all. And I just wanted some insights, opinions, advice or even tips from you have been doing this for some time or that have some expirience with this:

I’ve set myself the goal of making 20 bucks until december (I started in June), and so far have made 0. Even though I know that it takes time, I just needed some words from you guys about waiting and my expectations with expirience, rather than just some youtube video or article.

What other affiliate networks in my niche can I use (I know Amazon’s a basic) but what else? (I’m from Portugal, if that helps)

A website’s/blog’s important, I’ve read a tone about that, what are your advices for building a website/blog and what tools do you recommend (preferably free)?

Aside from Pinterest, Tiktok and Medium, qhat other socials/platforms do you recommend me to use?

What other general tips/advices do you have for me?

Thanks for reading and hope you guys help me, perhaps humble me a bit more too and share with me your own expiriences aswell.
