Direct Affiliate Marketing Part II: How to Do It Correctly

Based on the previous post, I decided to make this followup to the same topic of direct affiliate marketing. Direct affiliate marketing rarely has moments where it can be profitable but if you can get it work, it can potentially lead to amazing results.

However, what I find is that MANY people misuse direct affiliate linking and frankly abuse it via spamming it through popular traffic channels, hence why they get banned and have these same channels place restrictions on how you can actually do affiliate marketing on them.

The most common and safest way to do affiliate marketing is to have whatever option you are using to drive traffic (PPC networks, YouTube, socials, Google) to a landing page FIRST, then from the landing page steer people to an affiliate offer.

But direct affiliate marketing still has it's uses and here's what you need to know:

  1. Direct affiliate marketing has few circumscances where it works well or is allowed
  2. Typically I've found that Microsoft Ads and Pinterest is OK to do that on
  3. With Pinterest I'd open up a new account (if you already have one) and try the strategy there. I've done some direct affiliate marketing on my account there, but I've mostly created pins which send traffic to my website first, then an affiliate offer.
  4. Direct affiliate marketing still requires you (transparently) promote high quality offers and not spam schemes/nonesense crap programs
  5. Please be sure to follow the TOS of whatever affiliate network you are connected with to see if they allow it and also review the TOS or whatever network you are funneling traffic from to the direct affiliate link (see Pinterest's affiliate guide here).
