Affiliate link in blog post + call to join list?
I'm building a list at the moment but it's still rather small. In the meantime I need to raise some money pretty quickly over the next 2-3 months.
My question is, has anyone found any benefit to placing an affiliate link (to a good clickbank product) in each of their blog posts (I'm adding a good quality post daily based on my reader's needs/wants) AND adding a call to opt-in to their newsletter as well?
If money wasn't a pressing issue I probably wouldn't consider adding affiliate links except in the newsletter but I'm thinking more short-term cash (not even that much, just a few hundred dollars) at the moment.
What are the pros and cons?
I've had a couple of direct sales (without newsletter preselling) already since I started and that was from an 'okay' sales page I wrote on my website when I first started. I just wonder, for the time being, how that would probably translate when there's a link in every blog post as well.
What are your experiences of this?
