Introduction To Affiliate Marketing

 What is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate Marketing is the promoting of products to get paid or to receive commissions. Some say it is difficult while the others say it is as easy as laying your bed. But I'll agree that one doesn't just wake up in affiliate marketing and start getting commissions and payments. We all have that stage we go through before making it. The thousands of dollars spent before getting to a point. Affiliate Marketing is the process by which an affiliate earns commission for marketing another person's products or a company's product. 

HOW DO YOU BECOME AN AFFILIATE MARKETER: 

Becoming an affiliate marketer isn't a hard not to crack. There are just a few steps you need to become an affiliate. 

1:Decide on a platform or affiliate site: There are many affiliate marketing websites to choose from. We have JVZoo, Warriorplus, Amazon, Clickbank(limited countries) and so many more

2: Choose a niche- This involves finding out the affiliate product you wish to promote/sell. Examples of niches could be Food, Entertainment, Travel, Home Decorations, Nutrition, Weight loss and so on.

3: Create Great Content- This is having to communicate with people around you. Ask questions about a product and see how many reviews you could get. You could recreate it as a blog post so that your audience will get more interested.

4: Drive Traffic to your sale- Paid Traffic, Free Traffic, SEO, Email Marketing

5: Get clicks to your affiliate link- Consider this when placing your affiliate links, if they are at the bottom of a page where people rarely ever go to, you'll get fewer clicks. Don't make every other word in your introduction look spammed with links. You need to balance the link placement in your website or blog (if you have one)

6: Concert those clicks to sales- First Conversion is the click to the product page. Second Conversion is the visitor purchasing the product. 

HOW PROMOTE YOUR AFFILIATE PRODUCTS:

1: Run social media campaigns This involves the use of social media platforms to promote your affiliate product.

2: Do blogging(that is if you can)

3: Create helpful videos

4: Add banners and buttons to your site

5: Offer Promos, coupons or loyalty rewards- This could be an eBook or a link to a free course *NOTE* This must be a free equipment to create trust between you and your audience.

WHERE TO PROMOTE AFFILIATE LINKS:

There are a lot of places to promote your affiliate links. 

•There are the most common free methods which are Facebook Groups or Marketplace, Pinterest, Tiktok, Tumble, Instagram and so many others not mentioned. 

•There are the paid methods which are Ads(Facebook and Google), Private paid programs generated by people. 

•SEO- Search Engine Optimization

•Create an Email List

HOW MUCH MONEY CAN I MAKE ON AFM:

One can make tons and tons of money depending on the product promoted. You can even promote as many products with high conversions as possible.

FINAL THOUGHTS: 

Like I said earlier, affiliate marketing takes time. Don't expect a life changing income or freedom to quit your 8-5 or 9-5 jobs overnight. Focus first on making your first sale and as your site grows, set new goals and continue experimenting.
