11 Ways to Promote Affiliate Links

There are lots of high-paying affiliate programs on the internet, and joining any of these programs will bring you a whole lot of passive income. These products can be physical products or digital products, and most times, there are just services.

There are also affiliate programs that pay as much as 10% of any product you promote for them. These affiliate programs will bring you a lot of money if you can successfully promote their links.

In this post, we are going to look at 11 different ways you can effectively promote affiliate links and increase the revenue you generate from your blog.

1. Explore Twitter

Twitter is not just a social space that can help you generate traffic for your blog or website; it can also be used to successfully promote affiliate links.

Promoting your affiliate links involves a lot of precise and strategic writing. This is because you can only use about 280 characters to promote your links. So you need to ensure your writing is good enough to attract clicks.

An effective way to do this is to embed videos or pictures to these links when promoting them.

2. Use Pinterest

Promoting physical products will require a lot of visuals, and Pinterest makes this easier for you. Pinterest is a platform where users basically communicate with a lot of visuals.

Such a platform will be very effective when promoting physical products with features that you can portray with images.

All you have to do is create boards and pins around the products you are currently promoting. These pins should discuss a broader topic related to the product, while the product link is attached to the pin.

This strategy will attract the audience to read your post and also click the link attached to it.

3. Use Instagram

Promoting links on Instagram is kind of limited because your posts are non-clickable. The solution to this problem is to drive your audience to your bio.

Your bio accepts only one clickable link, so this link should be the one for the product you are currently promoting.

4. Use Digital Products

This strategy is basically for bloggers who have any form of digital products that they are selling on their blog. These digital products can be e-Books, software, courses, or any other form of digital products.

The strategy would involve embedding these links into the digital products you are selling. These links should be promoted in a systematic way, so it wouldn’t feel like your product is purely sales material.

5. Use Facebook

Facebook is another effective way to promote your links. Although it is really effective, you shouldn’t spam your audience or followers with your links.

Links should be placed on your personal or business profile, or they should be attached to engaging and educational posts you have created.

6. Tools and Resource Pages

If your blog has gained much authority on a niche or topic you write about, it would be nice to create a tools and resource page where you can recommend products and tools.

This area should contain links to products you are promoting, and how it is beneficial to your users. It should contain proof that you have used the product and it is effective for you.

7. Use YouTube

Video has proven to be one of the most effective ways to engage with your audience and promote your products.

These links can simply be placed on your video description. And then, you use a call-to-action to get your audience to click on those links.

8. Build an Email List

Building an email list will be crucial to your success as a blogger and also as an affiliate marketer.

Email isn’t only used to drive visitors to your website, but it also helps promote your affiliate links and manage your relationship with your audience.

A good way to do this is to send a series of welcome emails to your new readers who subscribed to your newsletter. These emails should contain links to the products you are promoting, but they should not seem spammy.

Firstly, build a rapport properly with them before telling them the benefits of purchasing the product or service.

9. Use Affiliate Banners

Aside from clickable links that can be placed on your blog, you can also use affiliate banners. These banners are in the form of clickable images from the affiliate programs and can be embedded in different parts of your blog.

You can place these banners on the sidebar of your blog, on the footer or header menus of your website, or simply embed them in your blog content.

10. Create Deep Product Tutorials

Another way to promote a link is to create an in-depth “how-to” post of the product on your blog. This kind of post can be likened to a product review, but it is actually different from it.

The tutorial should contain; what you have experienced with the product, how your readers can use the product, what your readers can benefit from the product, and how your readers can find the product.

11. Affiliate Product Review

This is a kind of blog post that answers questions people may have about the product you are promoting. This strategy can also be likened to a product tutorial, but it is more of giving your honest opinion about the product you are promoting.

It should include things like; pros and cons of the product, tips to be successful with the product, and testimonies of people that have been successful with the product.

What to Consider Before Promoting a Product

Before deciding to join an affiliate program or promote a particular product, you must first ensure that the product or service is related to the topics being discussed on your blog.

Secondly, you must ensure that the product or service brings value to the reader and not just to your pocket alone. Your audience should be your major priority before thinking about what you will profit from.

My wrapping up

There are lots of high-paying affiliate programs that will bring you a lot of money within a short period of time. Now that you have been shown the tips you can use in promoting these products go right ahead and implement them.

Thank you, and that’s all for today’s post, my beloved WA Family.
