So what are your methods to affiliate marketing success?

8 replies
I have just started trying to monetize my blog. A little something my current mentor is teaching me is directing traffic to a squeeze page and then adding an affiliate link/banner. I guest post, forum to drive traffic there.

I am constantly blogging to build my brand and add value too.

Besides these and obvious banner placements, what other things do you guys do for affiliate marketing? Please share!

Thanks!

    You can add an opt-in box to your blog and start building your database right from your blog. Give something away of value to your readers (ebook, special report, etc..) in exchange for their email. Then you can set up an auto responder series and start building a relationship with them. Slowly start to monetize that list. Lots of WSO's on here that show you exactly how to do that.

    some blogs that i research, are like made up and looks like they took 3-5 minutes to put it together hopping to get traffic.

    here's a question they should answer, "would you build a business in the desert?"

    You could write some articles and submit them to the article directories, linking back to your blog.

    Write great articles and recommend products with an affiliate link.

    Write reviews of products you like and use.

    Build a list with your blog.

    Get as much traffic as you can to your blog, especially the posts that successfully generate affiliate commissions.

    Continue focusing on your blog and your list. More traffic and more subscribers should equal more money.
