Offer A Bonus To Buyers

I have seen lots of bloggers having success with this method: offering a bonus to people who purchase from your affiliate link.

How does this work?

Well lets say that you are marketing HostGator and telling your readers that this is one of the best hosting that they can use for their blog. Did you know that you can offer a bonus while marketing HostGator?

Want to know how I do it?

Well I do this by offering free WordPress blog installation. If a person purchases from my affiliate link while signing up for HostGator then what I will do is install WordPress for them on their hosting account, install a theme and also a few plugins.

You can do the same so that you can make money while affiliate marketing.

What you can do is give away gifts, 2 weeks advertising link or anything that comes to your mind.

Write A Great Product Review

Another great way to make money with affiliate marketing is to write reviews of the product.

When you do this, you can highlight the benefits of using the product and how this will help the person that is purchasing it.

Make sure to honest write reviews of the product that you are marketing.

You may ask why. Why can’t you just twist your review to make it look like this product is a must have and it will work magic for the buyer?

This is because if you lie while writing the review then chances are your readers will get a hint that you are lying. Those who purchase the product and realized that you have lied to them will never trust you again. They may not even visit your blog again and may also tell others how you lied to them just to make a few bucks.

So always remember that honesty pays, so be truthful while writing reviews if you want to make money with affiliate marketing.

Use Coupon Codes When Promoting

People love to save money while shopping. A great way to do this people will use discount coupon codes while shopping online.

When promoting your affiliate links, if possible then promote them and use discount coupons as well.

The truth is, most people only buy stuff then they can get a discount on the product being purchased, or they wait until a sale is on the product.

If you have a product that you want to market, make sure to wait until there is a sale on it or use coupon codes to market that product. You will be able to make a few more sales that way.

Recommend Products That You Use

What if you have a tool or product that you use on your blog which helps you to get more work done in a short time? Or a tool which makes your SEO research much easier?

Would you keep that tool to yourself? Or would you tell people about it and have an opportunity to make money while doing it?

I don’t know about you, but my blog is about helping bloggers to be successful whether I make money marketing an item or not.

Sharing products, tools and services that you use on your blog to become a successful blogger, can help you to make money while affiliate marketing.

If you have a product or tool and you can prove to your audience that you have been having success with this product or tool, then you can make money recommending this product to them as well.

If you don’t use a tool and you are recommending it to your audience, they will wonder why are you not using it.

So it is always best to recommend the things that you have used or if you haven’t used them as yet then make sure that this product has been used by others that you know about or a product that is popular which people seem to be going for.

Call To Action Converts Well
