Affiliate Marketing is a marketing system to sell products or services in the marketing strategy using the affiliate network which has four players to complete the cycle of Selling. Merchandiser, who uses affiliate network to sell its products or services, Network which deals with affiliates and merchandiser, and buyer who makes purchase, through affiliates.

Affiliate Marketing is one of the growing business trends on internet. Shopping portals, E-Stores, electronic companies and retailers, PC manufacturers and sellers, Fashion and clothing lines, Furniture and household item manufacturers, health and care products manufacturers, almost each and every type of physical and intangible products can be sold through Affiliate Marketing.

I will discuss Affiliate Marketing companies which can be joined by bloggers and Affiliate Marketers to earn money. But firstly I need to clarify more about Affiliate Marketing and how to earn money with Affiliate Marketing.

Bloggingmatters is not only followed by professional bloggers but also by non-professionals and non-IT related people who like to follow us and read us. That is why some time I try to explain things deeply and I try to convey this message to my authors as well whenever we talk on skype or meet.

So I am briefly explaining Affiliate Marketing again. It is very simple process of selling and earning online money. If you don’t have any product to sell online, like E-book, you are not a hosting company to sell Best quality web hosting, you don’t have any company to sell your service or product, and then how you can get benefit from Affiliate Marketing? You can definitely get benefit from Affiliate Marketing by turning to be an affiliate member of any Affiliate Marketing network. Its cool and simple!

Now let me explain this point which is very important. You are in position as I explained and you think that becoming an affiliate member is only the option for you. You can become affiliate to earn commission. If you are thinking that how you will earn commission? I tell you. You need to have a blog or website where you can place affiliate ads for selling your affiliate products or services. The network of affiliates or the company you are promoting as an affiliate should provide you the banners ads or link to advertise on your website and blog.

Earning Money in Affiliate Marketing

I am extremely happy and excited to tell you that Affiliate Marketing is one of the greatest ways to make money online. I would be very happy if any of bloggingmatters reader turns to a blogger and takes help from our content. We try to make good and useful content for readers benefit.

I am going to discuss Affiliate Marketing deeply in the near future and I will keep in touch with the Affiliate Marketing topic for latest development and updates in the market. So many new bloggers who think to start their blogs when they come to know that blogs and websites earn income from ad publication and visitors click on their ads, and blogs and websites earn money with the percentage of page impressions and clicks on the ads. So they quickly start calculating things that they are not professional bloggers and questions come to their minds are:

-          How blog will generate 5k to 10k visitors per day for handsome earning?

-          How to choose the topic of the blog?

-          How to afford high quality website hosting?

-          What they will write their blogs?

-          How to make unique and quality content for the readers?

-          How people come to know about their blogs to visit?

-          When a blog starts earning money?

So these are the questions which come to their mind when they get little bit idea about blogging and earning income. Most of them get into panic and they don’t step up to make an initiative to launch the blog and learn blogging. So ultimately their chapter ends here. But few of them understand blogging and observe that people are starting blogs and earning money, so why they can’t blog and earn good money? They start getting possessive and keen on doing blogging, that is how the flame begins to learn blogging and starting a blog.

They take initiative and start their blogs…..

The point is, will they earn money in the blogging start-up? How they will survive in the first 6 months of their blog?

I would recommend them to start a niche blog. Niche blog means you know the market very well. You know the target market and you have already figured out some affiliates of your niche to start earning money after few weeks of your blogging launch. All you have to do is, working professionally according to your niche. As you make closer content to your affiliate program more you will earn commissions through your affiliate company. Suppose you are keen about men’s garments and you start a blog on men’s jeans, you know about jeans well, you know brands and you choose to target men’s who are looking to buy cheap men’s jeans and jeans in sale online.

So your target for making content is ‘cheap men’s jeans’ and ‘jeans in sale’

You need to join an affiliate program of any men’s wear e-store or brand, there will be thousands of e-stores who are selling different brands jeans, go for it, normally affiliate sign up are free to do, sign up with an affiliate program, place ads on your blog, start making good and relevant content about men’s jeans and men’s jeans in sale’ on your blog and start earning commissions.

How to earn commission in Affiliate Marketing?

The very simple process of earning money in Affiliate Marketing is, you should identity your choice and taste of blogging. As I have said earlier, what are the things you like to discuss on your blog? What is the niche you should select to start your blog? Famous niches are technology, lifestyle, sports, Business, etc.

Identify your skills and interests to select a suitable niche to make a start with your blog. To get more clarity on niche selection and topic to choose for your blog, I recommend you to check this article for detailed guidance:

Now I hope you are pretty much clear about niche and topic selection of your blog. Make a good decision with your interests in mind. Think about your expertise and then think do you like this line of blogging, do you think people follow and look for these kinds of topics, products and services?

You don’t need to only think about blog’s topic but you also need to analyze Affiliate Marketing along with your blog’s topic. You must need to keep these two things parallel in your blog’s start. I learned this lesson after two years of blogging start-up which is I am telling you in one article.

The best thing about Affiliate Marketing is you don’t need big traffic to earn money. You only need targeted traffic. Targeted traffic means that you have a proper niche blog, you are an affiliate of related products or services.

Let’s take an example, if John is running his blog about Television and LCD sets, he blogs about new and every latest LCD and flat television, he knows about these TV products, he does research before posting the articles on his blog, he makes good content for the readers, he provides updates about different LCD and TV models and manufacturers like Sony, Samsung and Panasonic, etc. John also joined affiliate program of a big store like Wall-mart to sell TV and LCD products. Now he is making content on his blog about TV and LCDs and he is having affiliate ads on his blog about TV and LCDs, so he is getting traffic about TV and LCDs on his blog, and obviously he should make content about TV and LCDs so that he gets the readers and TV-LCD buyers to come on his blog. He will earn commission if any visitor of his blog purchases any product of Wall-Mart by going to Wall-Mart website through John’s blog. This is how an affiliate marketer earns commission.

Well, it is good to become an affiliate. So you need a blog or website which has good quality and targeted traffic. That is how you will be able to join any affiliate program to earn commission.

Conclusion

Identify your skills and taste to blog about, think and plan well before launching. Keep in mind that you are not going to get 1000 visitors daily after a month. So Affiliate marketing would be the best option for you to start earning money within few days of your blog’s launching. The things which are important in affiliate marketing are good content development, best and high quality website hosting, appropriate affiliate program, Social media involvement and proper blogging mindset to work on.
