In the previous post we talked about what affiliate marketing is and the benefits of being an affiliate for someone else. In part 2 of the basics of affiliate marketing, we will discuss great ways to drive traffic to sites using your affiliate link and make more money online.
Tell people you know
This is a great way to get started with affiliate marketing and start making a little bit of money. Find products and websites that allow affiliates that people you know would be interested in. Tell them about the products and give them your link, and if they buy it you will earn money. This is limited to the amount of people you know, though, so you may want to branch out to other options eventually.
Search Engines
How many people a day do you think use search engines? People are always searching for stuff, coming across websites at the top results of the search engines. They either click ads or sometimes buy stuff based on recommendations on these websites. Learning how to get your site (or the site you are an affiliate for) to the top of the search engines is called "search engine optimization." Once your site is to the top of the search engines for keywords that people search for on a regular basis, then you'll have tons of free traffic coming to the site.
