How to Make Money On Affiliate Marketing
Surely you have seen websites where they compare for example "the 10 best smartphones of the year", or the "10 best hydro-washers" and after each one and its review, the purchase link to Amazon. I want to mention something in common that the previous issues have with this, and with all of the following: There is no subject that has more money than the other, in each of them you can find people who live from it, people who earn a lot of money, people who take an extra monthly, and ... people who have tried and leave before seeing results. I will not get tired of saying that there are no magic methods or recipes, the key is in WORK and CONSTANCE.
I repeat this because it is the only thing that will give you success in everything you propose in your life, encourage and read on.
Advantages And Disadvantages
Now we will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of Affiliate Marketing:
ADVANTAGES:
-You do not need to invest almost any money, nor time to create products, since you will focus on promoting those of others.
-It benefits both the owner of the product and you, so the chances of growth are at risk 0.
-You should not deal with customers, this is done by the company that markets the product.
DISADVANTAGES:
-It is not magic, it is not enough to put an affiliate link and wait for the rain to rain, you must work hard at the beginning, like everything else.
-You do not have customer retention, that is, the clients you get are for product companies, someone who bought you a smartphone through your affiliate link is not going to buy you a programming course that you are also promoting, you cannot contact him.
Choosing the Niche
The first thing to do, as in any online business is to choose a niche. But this is not to take it lightly, you should not choose your niche lightly, because lightly it is what you will get. Here you have some very important recommendations when deciding your niche:
RESOLVES THE NEED OF A GROUP OF PEOPLE:
By finding a group of people who have a problem, we can create the solution. The key is to look for the demand and give the offer, but you must do this in a serious way, you must make sure and confirm that what you will sell to those people will really help them solve their problem. Since otherwise, you will become a smoke seller and lose credibility.
CHOOSE A SUBJECT OF YOUR INTEREST:
To get customers, you must gain their trust before with your content strategy. That is, write a post to attract your readers who will be your future customers. But for those readers to become customers, your posts and articles must reach them, and the only way to write this post is that you know a lot about a topic or that you are passionate about that topic. If the theme you choose you choose because you think it is the most profitable, but it is a topic that you are not interested in, it will not only be noticed in your post, but the task will become heavy and guess that ... you will end up leaving it.
DO NOT WANT TO REINVENT THE WHEEL:
This is a very common mistake when it comes to undertaking online, wanting to do something new, inventing a market. The time you will lose in this almost titanic task is very much and it is almost impossible for you to achieve it. There is already a market for everything, you just have to choose the one that meets these requirements and best suits you and your strategy.
NICHE OR MICRONICHO:
Do not try to compete in the largest markets, try to find a micro niche of that niche. This is not easy but when you find it you will see that it is easier. Imagine this, you have a Niche of DIET TO LOSE, with about 100,000 searches per month, but also this in turn has a micro niche of diets to improve energy, with 9000 searches per month. It is very likely that you will be more profitable to enter the micronicho, than in the brutal competition of diets to lose weight.
Market Study
Now that we are clear about which niche we are going to attack, we have to choose which product of that niche we are going to sell. For this, you should not be tempted to choose the most expensive products, since more expensive does not mean more sales.
We must choose products that are being sold, that the audience is buying, and to know this we can do the following:
ClickBank:
In case you do not know, this is one of the largest affiliate networks that exist, then we will enter it, and we will see what people are selling more about our niche.
Amazon:
No presentation needed, but suppose our niche is technology, or better, our micronicho are smartphones. We can go to Amazon to go to the category smartphones and see what is being sold, in addition, for example in this case, we can not only write and watch on smartphones, but also on the accessories for those smartphones.
Udemy:
The famous course platform, following the previous example where our niche is technology, we can put the micro niche Computer / Programming, we will see what are the best selling courses in this field.
Competition Study
To know who we compete against, we can do a quick Google search on the product we want to sell. If there are many competitors, it will be difficult to make a dent in it when we are just beginning, hence the importance of micronichos. We can study some SEO to better position with our articles and thus appear in the first searches of search engines.Affiliate Platforms
1 Amazon
In this affiliate program you can find products of all flavors, smells, colors and sizes, at Amazon we can find everything, believe me, if it is not here it is very difficult to be elsewhere.
Hence it is the most famous today, Amazon has distributed millions of dollars among its affiliates. If we look at the website we see that it works with dropshiping, advertisers can put their products for free so that Amazon sponsors them through its affiliate tool.
We as sellers will have to sell these products to take a commission.
2 Admit
For the second option I am going to leave you one of those perfect affiliate pages for all types of topics. In its platform we can find more than 800 affiliate programs in Spain registered in the platform.
In addition, it is important to know that successful affiliates receive commissions in the form of prizes, this makes it a good place to start recommending companies.
Within the platform we can find discounts, promotional codes, personalized links, banners and much more that will help you expand leads with your business.
3 Booking
In affiliate marketing, if there is a profitable business is that of accommodation, from the program (booking affiliates) we can get a high remuneration for referring users.
If you have a tourist website or a page where you talk about cities and towns, you may want to sign up for this program, they have effective affiliate and tracking systems to store the cookie for 24 hours.
On the other hand, they have personalized links, widgets and add-ons that will help you insert offers within your website.
If you are looking for a cheap marketpace to integrate with your online store, without a doubt the program (Aliexpress affiliates) is the best option for you.
In this platform we can find all kinds of products, so many that it is impossible to count them, from collectible dolls to accessories for cars. Similarly, its program has widgets and add-ons that will help us refer sales.
The advantage of using Aliexpress is that you can put products without stocks within your website, the disadvantage would be the time it takes to send the product, usually they take 30 to 40 days.
Within this platform you can find affiliate programs from all sectors and even if it is in English, if you are serious about your project, I do not think you are afraid if you are dedicated to the promotion of third-party products and services, right?
If we look at the commissions, we can see that almost all the companies that advertise on this site offer high commissions for their affiliates.
The good thing about this site is that, as I said, it not only offers products, but we can also promote hosting services, tools for affiliate networks, among others.
These are, for me, the 5 most important, although to start you could choose Amazon just to not mess up so much, once you choose your platform go for the next article.
And Now What?
Now that we have our niches, our product and our affiliate platform we have to create our blog or website. I am not going to give you a programming and SEO course since that can be found for free on the web, but if I am going to give you a couple of tips:
-Use Wordpress with templates, you can learn to create an optimal site in just one or two weeks.
-Optimize your SEO, you can do some online course or if you can afford it, hire a professional for it.
-Write long and quality posts about the product to promote.
-Turn your visitors into subscribers, for them you can, for example, give a free guide on the topic niche only for subscribers, in this way you are generating a list of subscribers to contact later.
-Use the autoresponse to streamline your system, again I invite you to look for a tutorial on the web, it is very simple to configure and will save you a lot of time.
-Use email marketing strategies with Mail Chimp.
-Make Networking with other bloggers to get a constant flow of visits.
