Lesson Details:

I: Introduction

Affiliate marketing is the act of promoting products or services in hopes that you will receive commission for it. This type of program is actually very effective. It has become a very popular way for people to make money online in the past few years. The process of creating an affiliate website is simple. You can create your own affiliate website with any template in your WordPress account in less than five minutes. The most important part of affiliate marketing is creating credibility. It’s important to make sure your readers know that you are an expert. To do this, you should regularly publish articles on your blog about the subject of your affiliate website. You should also make sure to include links to products you are advertising in your articles. If you are not using WordPress you can still use a plugin called Pretty Link to help track your affiliate links.

II: Body

The best way to start out with affiliate marketing is to sign up for programs that already have traffic built into them. One of the most profitable affiliate programs is Amazon Associates Program. They have over 300 million active users and many of those people are shopping on their site every day. Unfortunately, it is very hard to find the right niche to market to on Amazon. After doing some research I found that following the “Hot New Releases” section is one of the best ways to do this.

Another great platform for affiliate marketing is ClickBank. Although they don’t have as much traffic as Amazon, they generally convert better. They offer more products that are appealing to different niches.
