Hello, I have a blog with posts and I'm wondering where is the best place to put the image with buy button, or product link on the page.

    Do it once in your text.

    And then I would do it either on the side of the text, with the text wrapped around, or below your content.

    I would really split test all of them, but I would start with one of the above.

    I place an affiliate link at the top, middle and bottom of each product review. I've found that text links have much higher CTR's than image links. I don't even waste my time with buttons anymore.

    The secret is to have good reviews that keep the visitor engaged, and then hit them with a strong CALL TO ACTION in your text link.

    For example,

    My site isn't a review site though. Currently on each post, I place 1 link at the top, 1 at the middle, and 1 on the bottom; 4 other little image + link ones are on the right sidebar.

      If you're affiliate marketing without any pre-selling or reviews, then you're unlikely to make any significant sales whatsoever. Good luck. But conversion rate for untargeted pages is so ridiculously low that you may need to monetize another way.

        Damn haha thanks. Well, my posts are not about a review but more of a product.

        Keyword : Glass Panes
        What am I using for AA? : Glass Panes
        How I use the anchor text : Limited Supply! Own a Glass Pane for home decor today!

        Good, bad, or fine?

        I also used AA over adsense because I was a ****in noob and didn't even look into the CPC and only searches. The CPC is around 10 cents so yea...

        My other site fairs a bit better with adsense. I get like 1 click a day at #6 on google (4.5k monthly search) and that gets me around 25 cents to the click. (Still didn't do my research but not as bad as other site haha)

    Read through your copy and see when you are "ready to buy." You could put the "buy now "image right there. But, put links in the beginning, middle, and end (wherever you "buy now" image is not). So, you'll have a total of 3 click out opportunities. Those links can be text links so it doesn't look spammy.

    Of course, there is no set rule as to where the best place is. Only testing will reveal that.

    Hope that helps.

    I usually include a buy button beneath the product image along with a call to action link after the intro and another call to action at the end of the review. I also link the image as well.
