Affiliate Marketing Blog |

soon to build a new website need some ideas for trying to make money with it besides my product. thanks everybody your infos been grteat so far.

There are several survey sites that are legit,, your not going to get rich doing them though. Do not give anyone your SSN there are lots of sites out there that are legit and they do not need this info from you. Nor do you have to pay to join.

I have a domain name and now am looking to either build a affiliate site or purchase a template. I will have some content, Blogs etc. Giving people reasons to revisit. The templates and website building programs seem very basic and don’t allow much room in the way of advertisement. My question is - has anyone built a site for the sole purpose of generating money from affiliate advertisement and where is the best place to find a template or the correct program to build this type of site? I don’t have any HTML experience. Thanks!

Hi guys
I have found this site to be useful, please check out.
you’ll get what you’re looking for.

I would like to create a horse racing website that I can add affiliates on, can anyone suggest a few affiliates to start me off.
Many thanks. Peter

In regards to a horse racing affiliate program, you can do two things:

1) Go to Clickbank market place - http://www.clickbank.com/marketplace.htm - and do a search for "horse racing"

2) Do a Google search for "horse racing affiliate programs"

I did both and came up with many programs… You can then choose which ones you find bests. Here are some tips about deciding which affiliate programs to join:

Hope this helps…

I like to select an affiliate program around a niche topic i want to promote but i see alot of affiliate programs want a website to look at. How can i get approved since my website is going to based on the affiliate program i signup for in the first place.
Should i just design an information site around the affiliate program with no selling to try to get approved. Or even use a blog or squidoo to set up a quick site to get approved. Any suggestions here.

You just answered your own question.

You can create a free blog or site, then show it to the affiliate programs that require you to have one. Blogger, Weebly, HubPages and Squidoo would be great.

Some affiliate marketers that don’t have sites just engage in a lot of article marketing or bum marketing.

Do you have to get a speical software program, are their websites ready available, do you have to make it yourself? The less cost the better and free is the best. Thanks!
an affiliate program is where and when people sign up and join you and sell fro you. doesn’t matter if it’s vitamins, electronics, jewelry. The affiliate program is what counts.. How do you start a affiliate program and own it.

If you have your own product you want other affiliates to promote you could register with a third party network like clickbank, commission junction, ect. They handle the purchase of your product as well as paying they affiliates for sales. You need to have a product website setup first.

If you are looking for 2-tier affiliates (people that promote an affiliate product you promote) for more sales then I suggest a website setup to tell people about what the benefits are of joining the affiliate program you are promoting.

There are free and paid services that can accomplish this. Do a some research for affiliate management programs to find the various options.

I’m an affiliate manager for one of the most-well known internet marketers in the field. I offer tips and suggestions on my blog Affiliate Management Insider for affiliate program management and finding joint venture partners to help increase your profits.

Now, I’ve looked on google and searched everywhere, but I cannot find a website that would affiliate with me or advertise my blog without me making a profit.
I do not want to earn any money from it, and I don’t want to pay for an affiliate.
Is there any way to do it for free..?
Thanx a lot for anybody that helps!
ale :]

sorry can’t help you

If I wanted to create my own website how do I use a affiliate company to generate leads?

First of all, before contacting any affiliate network to promote your product, make sure that your actual site and landing page are fully customized to maximise conversion.

Because no affiliate will promote a prosuct that does not convert.

Therefore you could be wasting thousands of dollars setting up an affiliate campaign for very little sales. In that case only the affiliate network wins ( via the fees that some of them make merchant pay ).

When it comes to actually chosing an affiliate network,I would suggest you to have alook at you competition and see who they are working with… if they have been with the same netowork for many years, they must be making some money out of their program.

Most affiliate network will provide you with advertising artworks ( banners, text and even video ) or you may provide yours.
Try to provide the affiliate company as much information as possible regarding your target demographics.

Always remember that the only way to make good money out of this is to look after your affiliate. Try to identify your high rollers quickly and move them up to a better pay structure so they wont go promote your competitor’s products.

Finally remember that internet is a strange beast that is evolving all the time…so always keep inform about the affiliate tools.

I want to build a website and have categories & products and the products will link to the affiliates site where they make the purchase. Is this a good way to make money as an affiliate? Does anyone have experience with a setup like this? Is it profitable?

Greetings Art,
Affiliate marketing can be very profitable, especially around the holidays. My questions to you are what is your proficiency in putting up a website and in marketing? If you have experience in putting up a website then we can focus on marketing. Most web hosting sites include automated templates that make putting up a simple website easy as painting by numbers.

There are affiliate marketers who are making thousands per week on the merchandise they promote. These are the pros who are masters at bringing traffic to their sites. Affiliate marketing is a learned skill that goes beyond putting up a website with affiliate products on it. There are certain elements you must consider such as who is your market and what do they want and need. There is a psychological aspect in the copy you write as well as the design of your website. If your website looks cheap and cheesy then most people might shy away thinking it’s a scam site. You see, trust is a core factor in getting people who want to buy from you.

In writing the copy you must convey a message that meets their needs while proposing a call to action that will glad-fully get them to buy. Art think about it this way. There are thousands of sites out there promoting the same thing. What is it that distinguishes your site from all the rest? When you realize that there are certain marketing techniques and strategies that can propel you above the rest and help you get on the first page of Google you’ll realize that there is plenty of traffic to go around and make those thousand dollar pay days.

Every day there is estimated to be a billion people online searching for something. If you have that something they want, then name your price. The sky’s the limit. And yes I’m working full time online creating profitable websites. There is plenty of free information that you can access online about marketing techniques and affiliate marketing. One of the masters that I studied with is Mark Ling. Check out his website that offers free tutorials and training on how to succeed as an affiliate marketer. I hope this helps you Art. Good luck…

To Your Success,

Stevie V

I want to start a website selling products for another company. I just don’t like the idea of having this amazing looking website and then when a visitor wants to buy a product…it leads them to another page (through my link) is there a way to minimize this issue?

thank you!

Put in your affiliate link and click order. Copy the url of your order link.

That way you bypass their sales page.

Make your website or blog a sincere review.

The Most Important Step Of Internet Marketing As Far As I’m Concerned
Use this technique when adding pages to a website, writing articles,
blogs, and placing classifieds, etc. It works for everything!
If the search engines can find you, customers will find you!

Do not choose your domain name or subdomain name without doing your keyword research first. If you choose a keyword phrase to name it, your chances of showing up in the first few pages of search results improves greatly.

SBI! might be what you’re looking for, but are you prepared to create an affiliate site with real content, written with your voice? And will your affiliate site be NOT about internet marketing? If you can’t answer yes to these questions then I don’t think SBI! will be fore you, sorry…

PS There’s a free ebook called Make Your Content PREsell which pretty much sums up the philosophy behind SBI!. Download it, read it, and then see if you think it’s the way you want to build a website…
