Promoting an affiliate link can seem like an intimidating prospect if you’ve never done it before. Luckily, plenty of other affiliate marketers have done this, and you can benefit through the wisdom they gleaned from their successes and their business mistakes. This guide on how to promote your affiliate link will help you with everything from finding your best monetizing product to figuring out your conversion rate to finally boosting your sales to the next level.
I would like to add this before I continue, having a blog/website would definitely be an added to you as an affiliate marketer. Remember: it's not compulsory. So I would slightly be writing in that regard
FINDING THE RIGHT PEOPLE
People who are most likely to buy your product or service often come from where you least expect them—they’re not always in your target demographic, nor do they have any idea that they need what you offer. This is why affiliate marketing, a strategy which involves placing ads for other people’s products or services on your website, is so useful. It can be an easy way to make money from visitors who might not even realize that they want what you’re selling!
REMARKETING
If you’re looking for a reliable way to drive sales in your affiliate marketing business, it’s time to start using remarketing. You can use tools like Google Remarketing (previously known as Google AdWords) and Facebook Retargeting to remarket ads, content, links or other products that have proven successful in previous campaigns. Remarketing is a fantastic way to offer value-driven additional content after someone has already left your site or has already converted on one of your offers.
EMAIL MARKETING
There are plenty of sites out there that can help you organize your email lists. However, if you’re just getting started with affiliate marketing, I recommend using Aweber or MailChimp (both of which are top-rated services for email marketing). You can quickly set up an email list and start sending newsletters. Plus, these two options offer free trials—so you can get started with a minimum of cost.
OPTIMIZING YOUR WEBSITE
To increase your chances of making money with affiliate marketing, it’s important that you provide relevant information to your audience. This can be done by creating helpful tutorials, infographics, webinars, etc. A successful website should have its own unique selling proposition (USP). It doesn’t matter how much traffic you are receiving if no one buys your product or service. Always remember that quality is far more important than quantity.
CONTENT MARKETING
If you’re looking for a way to make money online or promote your affiliate links, starting a content marketing campaign is one of your best options. By creating helpful content on an authoritative website or authority site, you’ll draw visitors in—which then allows you to sell affiliate products or services that can pay for your own expenses. Content marketing doesn’t have to cost you a dime (more on that later), but if it does, investing in paid advertising like Facebook ads will also help boost results.
USING TWITTER
Twitter is a great way to get noticed, but it requires a little thought if you’re using Twitter for business purposes. You need a solid tweet, which is why your first step should be coming up with a catchy tagline or call-to-action that incorporates your product, service or site. Don’t use all of 140 characters on something unrelated—save some space for tweets that drive traffic back to your website.
FACEBOOK ADVERTISING/BOOSTING POSTS
Facebook ads can be a low-cost way to find new customers for your business. If you have an established audience on Facebook, it's fairly simple (and cost-effective) to send targeted advertisements your way. If you don't have an established Facebook following, but still want to use Facebook ads, it will cost you more money than if you did have a built-in following.
INSTAGRAM ADS
In terms of making sales with Instagram, a great place to start is by boosting posts. This isn’t as expensive as it might sound—if already have an account with a few thousand followers, chances are you can get away with $20-30 per day. If you don’t, though, prepare for some sticker shock: Facebook estimates that a typical shoppable post costs about $400.
Hope I was able to help with this answer?
