WA Affiliate Program
Updated

I'm in the health & wellness niche and I found a particular company/program that I'm marketing as an affiliate because it resonates with me (in demand product with a unique

You definitely can succeed promoting one company, one program or one product. Many have done so and I am now starting a website that will be promoting one type of health product.

I am going to create a sale page for the product and then create other pages and posts that will showcase the clinical data and other related health information. Then I will link those pages/posts to the sale page.

Awesome idea. Thanks for sharing.

My pleasure.

You can absolutely be successful by promoting ONE thing on your site, there is no doubt about it. I've seen many successful sites do this when it comes to promoting WA for example, and it's pretty much what I do to make a full-time income with just one website alone, promoting WA. So it can be done.

The idea is simple really. Write lots of useful and relevant content as per the WA training, to build traffic and trust within your niche. Then, you funnel your visitors towards ONE page. Within the scope of the WA training, this page is a review. But you could also funnel people into a landing/ capture page too.

Content => ONE 'money page' => affiliate offer

I've also seen a number of sites outside WA do this with all kinds of offers. If the one offer is worth it (ie recurring commissions and/ or high enough payout per sale) then it can be done.

In addition to this, you could promote other related products in your sidebar or through other pages/ posts on your site. That way, you are giving your visitors more options. But in your case, your main focus is on promoting one thing.

I'm not saying this is the only way to go, but it absolutely works.

Perfect. Thanks very much for that explanation.

My pleasure, happy to help :)

Visited your affiliateguru site. That is awesome. Too bad I'm already in WA or I would definitely sign up to get your training. Great site.

I think the solution to this is to have more than one site. One where you just market this stuff in health and wellness and another (or more) to promote other things.

Good idea.

I think it could work. There are sites that only promote Wealthy Afiliate and they do well because of WA's pay structure. Go for it.

Thanks for the feedback.

Hello Ed, good question, but I think the multiple Affiliate programs is the way to go. People may visit your site for the interesting posts you write, but they may not buy anything related to health and fitness, but say you have an Amazon Affiliate link on your site they might click on that and purchase a television or dishes. Totally unrelated. By the way all your affiliates should be free. If they ask for money to join, pass them by.

Good tips. Thank you very much.

It is difficult to say what would be successful in terms of affiliate sites. If you find a site that is really closely related to your niche it might work. I have a variety of affiliates. If you check out yahoo, aol, etc. they have a wide variety of ads. I guess my answer is," My instinct says that only one affiliate might be limiting."

Makes sense. What do you think about writing specifically about the program but have affiliate banners to other related stuff on the page?

Can it work to limit my site to a single affiliate program?

You don't have to create a training, this is entirely optional. If you do want to create a training however, I recommend doing so about topics that have not yet been covered by someone. Or not covered as well as you could. Just search in the search bar to determine this.

Also, this goes into more detail on the subject of training and the perks: Hope this helps! Cheers

It does help. Thank you very much.

Awesome, and you're very welcome :)

Are sites penalized in Google rankings for having too many "product review" pages and not enough just pure content or visa versa?

My all posts are reviews, with this word or not. There is no reason for Google to be against it, reviews provide values.

my sites are usually 80/20 value/review

That's a great way to do it. Thanks for that.

Hey Eddie,

You could have a website with nothing BUT reviews and be successful, if setup properly.

What Google doesn't like is over using affiliate links, and/or low quality or irrelevant affiliate links which can lower the quality of the content your side provides.

Quality, unique content will win ... every time!

The following post may offer you the information you seek: https://www.audiencebloom.com/can-penalized-building-affiliate-links/

Thank you very much. I'll check that out now.

Thanks Trish! Good info, and a free ebook too when I went to the site. More folks here should read this info you attached.

Good to see you again! Have a great weekend!!!

You have a great weekend too Mark!
