Affiliate Marketing Does Get Results

This week I’ve been banging on about affiliate marketing as a model of online business. I haven’t been too complementary about it. Generally I had found it time-consuming, reactionary and it had left me with the feeling I was ‘not getting it’. I threw in the towel a couple times. Had an other bash. Gave up again. By writing these posts I have had an opportunity to reflect on my actions and results. Last night I looked at my actual recent results. Ooohh. The results weren’t so bad after all. In a period of 18 days, these were my results… Read More »Affiliate Marketing Does Get Results

30 Days to Sizzling Author Website Traffic

Being an author and marketing are often mutually exclusive activities. Not unusual. Authors are writers and that puts them in the creative camp. Their heart is in weaving words to tell a story.

So the question is not “why?”, but “how can I do better?” Now most… Read More »How I Can Improve My Affiliate Marketing Results

How I Do Affiliate Marketing

There is a bucket load of advice around the web on how to do affiliate marketing. I found a lot of it contradictory and confusing. Affiliate marketing is not as easy as many would have you believe. There are a lot of steps involved and decisions along the way. Get them right and you’re on your way. Miss any or make a poor decision and you’re stuffed, or at least making it harder than it could be. I’ve played with affiliate marketing now for about four years. “Played” being the optimal word.

How Does Affiliate Marketing Really Work?

Last week we talked about how to make money from a blog. I thought I’d cover off in a little more detail how those business models work. So, let’s look at affiliate marketing. In my other life I jointly owned a wholesale sporting goods company. We bought product from a supplier and sold it onto retailers. Effectively, we were the middleman. A broker. A wholesale agent. Affiliate marketing is the exact same business model, only online. More frequently the stock you buy and sell is digital products although it can be physical eg if you set up and Amazon store… Read More »How Does Affiliate Marketing Really Work?
