I am probably one of the biggest fans of affiliate marketing there is. I simply love it. I think its great that I don’t have to worry about product creation, inventory or customer service. My only job is to generate traffic to the merchants site and if a sale is made I make money. Sounds simple but it really takes work and alot of consistency to be a successful affiliate marketer. Here are a few things you can do to make more money as an affiliate marketer.

Set up your own money page – I think it is very important that you have your own website or blog to promote your affiliate products. Don’t just send potential customers directly to the merchants site. You want to build a presence in every niche you enter in. Please know that there is no need to spend money on a domain or hosting when you are first starting out. You can set up a free blog using blogger that will work just fine. You can actually continue to use this free blog for as long as you want. You really don’t have to get all fancy with your blog or website to make money. Simple is always better. Put a few articles on your blog and start sending traffic to it. Make sure you use your affiliate link to link to the merchants site from your articles.

Build a list – When you are first starting out this is not of extreme importance but as you grow your business it will be a vital part. I must admit, I have been so hard headed when it comes to this. I just don’t know what it is but I really don’t like the idea of having to build a list. But as I have grown as an affiliate marketer I see just how important and valuable a list can be. It is alot easier to send an email to a thousand people then to write 100 articles trying to get a thousand people to hear what you have to say.

Promote recurring billing products – A great way to build a strong passive income is by promoting products that must be paid for on a monthly basis. For instance, promoting a membership site will get you a commission for every month the member stays a member. There is nothing better then getting paid over and over again for something you did once.

Be aggressive – If you are going to do this then give it your all. Don’t do it half you know what. Give it all you got. Write as many articles as you can, create as many videos as you can, do as many press releases as you can. The person with the most information out there, dominating the conversation as Howie Schwartz says, is going to get the most sales. PERIOD!

Be consistent – Don’t write 20 articles one week and then write zero the next. If you do you will get a sale here and a sale there. You won’t have a constant flow of income coming in. The goal is to make enough money to quit your job and focus on your business full time. So be consistent. Set a schedule and stick to it.
