AFFILIATE MARKETING HUB

Affiliate marketing is probably the easiest way that bloggers can start to earn money without needing tens of thousands of page views or hundreds of thousands of followers. 

Anyone who runs an online business can incorporate affiliate marketing and add passive income revenue to their business.

But many people struggle to get the conversions and presume affiliate marketing must require a huge audience. 

This couldn’t be further from the truth. 

What it actually requires is strategy. 

Strategy is how I started to earn a consistent $5-6K in affiliate sales each month when my blog had just 40K page views on my travel site. 

In fact on this site you are on, I had under 6000 page views last month but made over $13K passive income. 

The secret to affiliate marketing success is understanding your ideal audience, understanding their problems, issues and goals and then finding ways to reach them when they are seeking a solution. You then solve their problems with products or services. 

Let me show you how!

Recommended affiliate networks to join

AWIN – a huge affiliate network with many popular programs. Great reports and easy to generate links. This is one of my favourite. 

Shareasale – This tends to have a lot of smaller brands and sometimes SAAS programs. Some have excellent commissions

Impact – This has many SAAS programs so is great for people in the online business and finance niches. 

Skimlinks – great for beginners as you won’t have to apply to individual programs. There is also a plugin which turns regular links to affiliate links if it detects a program within skimlinks. 

Amazon Associates – low commissions & a short cookie period but a popular store and so can work well for some niches

Ultimate Bundles – Great for digital products, they create bundles at huge discounts in virtually every niche and offer 40-70% commissions

The Passive Income Superstars affiliate program – if you are a student or customer of mine then you can join my program and earn 30-40% commissions with a 12 month cookie window.
