[AllThingsconsidered]

There are several ways to make money online by affiliate marketing

 

some of are written below .

 

1. Create a Website or Blog for Your Niche

 

To make money with affiliate marketing, the first thing you need is a website.

 

When it comes to building your website, you have tons of options. But we highly recommend using WordPress.

 

With WordPress, anyone can quickly build a professional-looking website in minutes.

 

Plus, WordPress has more tools to help their sites perform at a higher level than other website builders. That means more functionality across your site and a better user experience (UX) for your visitors.

 

If you’re interested in making money with affiliate marketing, WordPress is definitely your way to go. You can check out these tutorials if you need help building your site:

 

2. Choose Affiliate Products to Promote

 

If you’ve done the work to choose a niche, choosing affiliate products to promote should be easy. Choose products that fit your niche and relate to your content.

 

One of the best ways to select your affiliate products is by joining an affiliate network.

 

Affiliate networks are businesses that connect merchants and affiliate marketers so both can earn more money. Affiliate marketers use affiliate networks to make better product selections to promote on their site.

 

Here are a few tips you can use to get the most out of your affiliate links’ placement:

 

Only link where appropriate: Don’t add an affiliate link if it doesn’t fit in your content. This will negatively impact the user experience (UX) and cost you more lost sales in the long run.

Add links as early as possible: If you’re showcasing many products in one article, make sure you add your affiliate products at the top of the list. Most people won’t take the time to read an entire article. You want to make sure they see your affiliate links early on.

Get more out of your site’s space: You can use floating bars, inline banners, and sidebar widgets to promote your affiliate products. These enhance the impact of your content and lead to more sales over time.

For me, the best way to start making money is to promote affiliate turnkey sites that's ready to go the moment that you join.

 

In minutes, you can be promoting like a Professional Marketer with Turnkey websites promoting over 10,000+ products and counting.  

 

To date, I earn money as an affiliate promoting other people stuff that have proven products and services that others are buying.

Another option is to start a YouTube channel. You can start making informative videos ("how-to" and review videos) and link out to an optin page to collect the visitors email address where he / she can receive more information, or send the visitor directly to the affiliate program.

Great answers in this thread and to add into the mix, choose evergreen products that have been around for years, because that adds to your credibility online and helps build your name as a brand of trustowrthiness.

 

For years, I followed two main people online, Mike Dillard, initially through Magnetic Sponsoring and Simon Stepsys as he is a fellow Brit.

 

I learned from both. Mike taught me what I wrote in the first line and Simon, taught me not to promote opps, he didn't directly say that, but it was through his 'always promoting the next best thing' that I learned not to do that, even though one of the opps earned me $80,000 Around £60,000 Net, which in turn brought me and my lovely wife  a holiday home.

 

So stick to building your own name brand, because online people follow and buy people based on credibility and use a mix of promos for advertising, make sure that that includes a blog.
