Can you make money in affiliate marketing without a website?

6 replies
Hey guys,
I really need to start earning some side-money. And I'm thinking about getting into affiliate marketing.
But, I don't have a website.
I was wondering if it is possible to promote someone else's product without a website?
And how?
Thanks!

  • it's called "direct linking". just send traffic directly to the merchant, or clickbank page, or whatever and no website is needed.

    get the affiliate link, and send people directly to the link instead of having them land on your site and click the link

    You don't need your own website to get started. You can use free sites like Blogger for a landing page or just send traffic straight to the affiliate site you are promoting.

    Though it is not the best way, not having your own site, it can be done. Especially if you are just starting out.

    Depending on how you try to gain traffic though, you will need to read various rules at various places to see if you are allowed to post direct affiliate links or if you will need a landing page first.

    If you use a blog as a landing page, you can submit articles to Ezine Articles, as they don't allow affiliate links.

      All you need is a good domain name related to that product and forward it to your affiliate link.

      Then broadcast that link wherever you can. Blog comments, bus benches, tattoo it on your little brothers forehead, etc etc etc.

    I just market everything I'm involved with from my blog. Before I had a blog, I simply redirected my domain to the affiliate store link for my primary product IAHBE. I couldn't do an actual website if someone paid me. I have had a great deal of success doing things both ways, but I often think of what my earning potential could be if I did know how to create websites.

    One way to do it is to work up a nice review site for the affiliate program that you are marketing. Use blogger.com and set up a free review blog and purchase a domain name from godaddy or whoever and forward it to your blogger site. Use domain masking and get busy...

    Buy a .info name for .97 and start looking for ways to market it.

    Best of luck!
