Becoming An Affiliate

By: Arcol Mertin

If you can either write articles or have the promotion and marketing
knowledge to publicize articles that others write, becoming an affiliate
for several companies may be a great way for you to generate a good
income right from your own home. You can do this by receiving part
of the revenue off of sales that the company gets from people who
"click through" from your website via the company's links that are
placed on your pages.

Since you will be promoting a product or service, you will need a
killer sales pitch and website content to get your readers interested
in the product, convince them that they cannot live without the
product, and to keep them coming back to your website time and
time again for more recommendations and your useful content,
which will get them clicking on your links once again. Although
many affiliate companies only give you money off of the first sale
you make from each customer, you have the option of promoting
a good range of companies so that you can still make a profit off
of your returning customers.

If you cannot write this kind of content of your own, there are
many ways to pick up free or paid content to place on your affiliate
website. There are many reasons why paying for such articles would
be to your advantage. First, you will be able to tell the writer exactly
what you want, what product you are trying to sell, and what direction
they can go in to keep your readers interested and informed. On the
other hand, when you search for free content, you are limited to
what is already out there. Secondly, you will own the copyright to
this content. That means that no one else can reuse it without your
consent. If you opt for free content, you will be sharing that content
with an unknown amount of other affiliate websites, plus the original
author will be able to place their byline at the bottom of the article
which could result in them stealing your traffic.

When you pick an affiliate, it is important that you determine which
companies you will profit best from based on the frequency that the
product is likely to sell. There are several types of affiliates and some
will offer you more money from a sale than others will. Before you get
hazy-eyed by dollar signs, however, remember some products are
bound to sell more than others. If you sell on product four times a year
from a little known company that gives you $100 per sale or sell a well
known product 3 times a week at the rate of $10 per sale, then you will
make much more money with the $10 per sale product. Often times
large well known companies will offer a very small profit per sale because
they are established and know that their product is likely to sell well.
Small, unknown companies, on the other hand, need all of the promotion
they can get. Also, because they are unknown, their products are likely to
sell less frequently.

To make money with articles that you place on websites, you will also
need a variety of good affiliate links that will help to generate revenue.
It is important that you know where to find affiliates and that you choose
the best affiliates for you and your niche site.

You can sign up with a company that manages the accounts of hundreds
of companies, big and small, and apply for the products within these
accounts or you can do a web search for companies that would match well
with your niche, visit their websites, and see if they advertise an affiliate
program. Lastly, there are two main ways to find an affiliate company for
your niche website.
