Targeting is The #1 Target

Commissions on physical products are usually a lot lower because of the overhead, so you’ll have to sell a whole lot more product to make a decent income.  

A brand can have its product affiliated with one major website, or be running a plethora of strategies at the same time.  

Even if your visitor doesn't buy the product your referred, if they buy something on that visit, you earn a commission.  

An affiliate network is a platform where product owners list their products and invite affiliate marketers to promote them in exchange for a commission.  

You’ll also usually get some tips and useful assets for marketing the product (often found in a welcome guide or on the affiliate reporting site).  

Run “social proof” giveaways — ask your readers to share their experience with your process or product in return for a chance to win.  

At this stage in a post you might quite rightly expect to see a recommendation for an Affiliate Marketing product – but we are not doing that here because as we said, products and techniques change regularly and what we recommend today may not be appropriate a year from now.  

As search engines have become more prominent, some affiliate marketers have shifted from sending e-mail spam to creating automatically generated web pages that often contain product data feeds provided by merchants.  

Put simply when promoting products, you have a choice of promoting a One Time Payment product or a product that requires a recurring payment (Software or membership usually).  

Jet is a relatively new eCommerce site that went live in 2015 but quickly gained momentum because of its surprisingly low prices and a product range that’s easily comparable to Amazon.

Simply put, to earn big commissions in affiliate marketing you want to get the right product/service in front of the right audience with the right message.  

Only promote products and services that will truly help your audience. Ensure that your content adds value to your audience, instead of wasting their time. Don't be afraid to spend more detail explaining product features and benefits and any personal reasons you recommend a product.  

Additionally, the product selection on Amazon is absolutely massive, and you can find loads of really obscure things to sell. If you’ve got a car site, for example, and you want to recommend jumper cables, you can pick one of the many hundreds of different brand and models.  

To give an example, if you were promoting a software product that automates blogger outreach, your webinar could talk about high-level strategies for outreach that attendees could implement manually, then position the product as a time-saver that lets you focus on the relationship-building instead of the initial outreach.  

I can’t disclose the person or the site, but one of my colleagues is in one of these niches and reported significant revenue increases from testing other affiliate programs against Amazon–before Amazongeddon. The other big opportunities here are going to be in specific product sub-niches that offer higher commissions; mattresses, for example, are notoriously profitable.  

So, make sure to deploy SEO/SEM tactics to improve your site's presence and traffic before you launch your affiliate program.  

They range in price from free to thousands of dollars, with higher-priced programs promising big results for students.
