Affiliate Programmes in the Fitness/Exercise Niche (UK based)

2 replies
I'm a newbie, so please excuse me if I get my terminology wrong here...

I launched my first website last month and one of the ways I'm looking to monetise it is with affiliate links. It's a website about fitness, aimed mainly at beginners, based in the UK.

I've signed up to Affiliate Window and Amazon Affiliate so any tips of getting the best out of those would be much appreciated.

I also wondered if anyone knew of any affiliate programmes that would be worth me looking at without going through AW. I'm don't know if companies really do that independently or if everything tends to go through a provider like AW, but it would seem to make sense to "cut out the middle man" if possible.

    Hi Julia,

    I'm afraid I don't know of any....have you thought about creating your own product / ebook? You have a really nice looking website, that's a great start as it creates a good impression.

      Thanks Simon. I'm really pleased with the look of it. It's already getting a little under 1K unique visitors per month and I haven't really done SEO/IM for it yet, just plugged it on Twitter on Facebook. (I do have 11K followers on though, most of whom are fitness fans, so that's pretty powerful.)

      I am considering writing an ebook. I only really started looking into the whole IM thing this week and I had no idea ebooks could be such a money spinner. I must admit to still being a little skeptical - I've never bought an ebook and don't personally know anyone who has had success in selling one - but it does sound like people on here have made money that way.

      I suppose, as a professional journalist, my perception of writing is a little different from some people here. I write articles for national magazines and get paid in the region of around £400 per 1000 words (have been very shocked at the low rates discussed for copywriting on this forum!).

      What word length do ebooks tend to come in at? And how much is considered a reasonable price?
