WA Affiliate Program


hey Ya'll, how's everyone's Sunday going? I have a couple niches I been brainstorming about. I came across WA in 2018 by accident buttttt...... was it? ABSOLUTLY NOT! I've bee

ok thank y'all so much.

WA has no restrictions; it is a third-party independent of WA.

You need to be cautious when you sign up with merchants so they cannot use your customers for their marketing campaigns. You need to include a clause in your contract not for them to retain your customers. You want to ask them to deliver packages without their corporate identity on the boxes.

I would be very wary and do my due diligence.

You need to pay upfront for them to drop ship. Some may require prior banking | or credit card approval before the business is conducted.

You may use PayPal and Stripe gateways to process transactions; however, if you expect a large cash intake, I would sign up for the latter as PayPal would freeze newly opened accounts.

Profit margins won't be as high because you are not making the goods, it requires dropshipping. Therefore, there's an extra cost associated.

And you still have to deal with customer services and respond to their inquiries, providing succinct transparency throughout.

And the most essential of all businesses is marketing; you still have to find a way to market your dropshipping business. One way is via Facebook Ads. However, that can be costly if you do not know what you are doing.

The other way is to incorporate a blog and have it SEO optimized. You regularly update it with relevant content about your niche to drive organic traffic to your dropshipping store.

The latter is no different from affiliate marketing, except you would be diverting traffic to merchants' stores pending your visitor making an informed decision to go ahead, click your links purchase the item/s you proposed to solve their issue.

However, you don't have to deal with your visitor, as this is the merchant's responsibility, or drop shipping goods, lateness, etc.

I hope this helps.

WA will show you how to create websites and the content for them. Along with that the ability to have them rank on Google.

You can use the tools and software here to do all of the above you are asking. But the real value here is to teach you how to create a long term sustainable income and not just a transactional business.

Nicole, Andre (apache1) mentioned in live chat you can use the new WA niche finder.

As Diane stated, drop shipping is a different platform and business model. Affiliate marketing promotes products in a niche like Amazon or other affiliate networks. You could use a WooCommerce website template to create print art, but that is a different business model. The main focus of Wealthy Affiliate is affiliate marketing.

Hi - yes, but dropshipping is more difficult than affiliate marketing.

You will have to deal directly with customers, resolving their returns, refunds, complaints, late deliveries etc.

You would also need to put money into advertising.

Whereas, with affiliate marketing, you simply send the customer to the merchant and receive commission.

And you attract free traffic by writing articles.

Can we drop ship?
