Five Ways To Make Money With Affiliate Marketing

Simply put, affiliate marketing is Selling Someone else’s product/service in exchange for a commission.

It's a great way (if not the best way) to get started when it comes to monetizing you blog.

Why? Because you don't have to worry about creating the product, providing the service or providing the customer support.

However, many bloggers get it wrong.

They slap their affiliate link all over the place and hope to make money. Don't be that guy. Use one (or more) of these five ways.

  • The Unboxing
  • Teach how to use the product/service
  • Do detailed case studies
  • Use videos
  • Create comparison posts

I know what you're thinking – Leslie, how do I do that effectively.

Fortunately, I cover all of that (and more) in the episode, so go ahead and have a listen.

Today's Question: Which one of these ways will you be using with your next affiliate marketing campaign?
