Best practices on successful Affiliate Marketing

Question is – How to make money with Affiliate Marketing – consistently and regularly

Affiliate marketing has become more complex over the last few years, thanks in part to social networking sites being increasingly identified as affiliate marketing sites. There is money in affiliate marketing but if YOU can make money from it or not depends on a lot of other factors such as your commitment, experience, site traffic etc. While these best practices are by no means comprehensive of all the tactics you will need, but, it’s a good place to start and might help you in answering the question “How to make money with Affiliate Marketing”.

Get a ‘Pay per Sales’ Affiliate marketing program

Avoid signing up for a ‘Pay per click” (Affiliate program where you get paid based on the number of visitors you redirect to the merchant’s website from your affiliate site)  and a ‘Pay per Lead’ (Affiliate program where you get paid once the referred visitor provides contact information on the target site by filling out a simple contact form.)  as you are completely dependent on the quality of the Affiliate program. There are instances where if the referred traffic does not generate the leads or conversions, the conversions have been cancelled.

Join a ‘Pay per Sales’ program where your site is involved in converting a visitor to a customer so that you can ensure that the investment you have done using your PPC money and content marketing is converting to revenue.

Choose the Right Merchant

When you promote a product you also promote the company who is behind the product so try to choose wisely. You don’t want your visitors that you work so hard to get on your website to go and buy a product following your advice then come back unhappy. Do you think that this visitor will ever come back to your site and take your advice again? Most likely no; this can hurt your credibility in the long run.

Marketing and Re-marketing

Don’t just refer traffic. Convert the visitor to a buyer on your own website.
