Regardless of what you believe about affiliate marketing programs on your blog the truth is that it is incredibly profitable if done correctly.
When I first started my blog I was excited to have to write my own content rather than purchasing pre-written posts from someone else. I quickly discovered that it was much more complicated than I originally imagined. There are hundreds of different products that I could promote on my blog, but how was I going to know which one was the best?
At first I was running around in the dark and had no idea what I was supposed to do. I’m going to avoid making mistakes this time by having a good strategy in place.
So lets get into it. How do you find affiliate marketing programs for your blog?
If you just Google your niche for affiliate programs you are going to find hundreds of sites. Don't worry you are not going to run out of options, you will have plenty to choose from. You want to find affiliate marketing programs that you agree with and maybe have some experience with.
After putting in the research of late regularly for affiliate programs here is a list of some of the most popular sites that you can use and trust.
You can also find affiliate programs through independent affiliate programs who you can contact. One of the most exclusive independent affiliate programs that I would recommend is the one that is associated with Aweber.
These are the top 7 affiliate marketing programs that you can go after.
Now even though you may have found a good affiliate program it is still necessary to promote it.
The single most important thing that you can do to promote your affiliate program is to tell other people about it.
In order to do this you will need to create your own web 2.0 site where you can promote the affiliate program in. This site does not have to be anything too fancy, just a simple review site that gives people the information about the product and services that they are interested in.
I would recommend using article marketing as your main means of promotion on the 2.0 site.
Keep in mind that most people who are surfing the web are not surfing to buy something. The reason for this is that people now have access to everything they need through the internet. It is getting easier and easier to buy things online because people can see the reviews and testimonials of the products and services that they are looking for.
Instead of sending people who are researching online to one of your competitors you are better off sending them to your own website that you have created and optimized with SEO.
You should create a landing page that gives people information about the product and services that you are going to promote. The most logical place to send people is to the actual product page of the affiliate marketing programs your promoting.
You can also entice them with a freebie such as an eBook or a 7 - 10 page report related to the product that you are promoting. Then include a link to the landing page in your report and have your affiliate link inside of it. People who decide to download your freebies from your site are giving you permission to send them additional information. It is an excellent marketing technique to generate interest in your site.
To gain more popularity you can also write articles about your particular niche. Make sure that you are providing good enough information within the content that you are writing to encourage people to visit your site. This is a great way to get your articles onto the internet and to get people interested in what you have to offer.
It doesn't matter what you are offering in the way of services or products. If you can make enough interest in the product or service to provide people with even more information, you will be able to make money on the internet.
