Step 1
Affiliate programs (affiliate programs in network slang) are a special form of cooperation between large companies and website owners in which the latter attract new clients for the firm. With the right organization of business, affiliate programs can become a reliable source of very solid income. The main advantage of this business is that it has no state borders and restrictions. Successful cooperation can be established with any company or seller, regardless of their location or location.
Step 2
In order to become a partner in business, you will need two things: having your own website on a suitable topic and registering on the website of the partner program. The owner of the affiliate program provides each program participant with the necessary promotional materials, a program code for insertion on the site, as well as an affiliate link and sales statistics. The income will depend on the number of customers that you managed to attract to the partner site.
Step 3
It is important to take into account that affiliate programs are different in terms of their payment mechanism and system. Most often, there are affiliate programs that pay a certain percentage of the sales of their goods or services (PPS, pay-per-sale). Payouts in these programs are usually the highest, as well as the commission goes from any payment of the attracted client, no matter how many times he makes it.
The second type of affiliate programs is programs that pay for an action (filling out a questionnaire, registering in a project, downloading certain files, etc.). The prices in these affiliate networks are usually average, but since here no purchases are required from the visitor, the traffic convertibility is quite high.
Step 4
A special type of affiliate programs are programs that pay for traffic, i.e. for clicks. For example, a reward is received for each click of a visitor to your site on a partner's ad banner. The payment here is not very high, usually no more than 0, 1-0, 5 cents for the transition. This type of affiliate program is well suited for a site with a lot of non-targeted traffic.
Step 5
There are a great many affiliate programs today. Therefore, their choice must be approached with intelligence and caution. First of all, you shouldn't chase high payouts. Of course, everyone wants to immediately start earning large sums, but nevertheless, you should first weigh the pros and cons. The fact is that it is necessary to choose an affiliate program taking into account the peculiarities of your site, its subject matter and the specifics of monthly traffic. You should definitely not hang an ad for an affiliate program selling Viagra on a website for young mothers, and a banner with children's books on a car blog.
Step 6
Quite often, webmasters purposefully create thematic sites for certain affiliate programs. In this case, before creating the content of your site, you should analyze the product offered by the affiliate program and figure out what target audience it is designed for. And you need to promote such a site for certain key queries that will be closely related to the product being sold. In this case, successful sales and solid income will not be long in coming.
