The Free And Easy Way To Make Even More Money From Your Existing Web Site

Affiliate Marketing

What Is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is one the the most popular ways to make money online.  It is FREE to start and provides you with the opportunity to offer other people's products or services on your website, without you having to hold any stock or deal with sales or returns.  In fact, you do very little except provide a link on your web site to the companies web site to which you are affiliated with and then if the visitor buys, you receive a commission.

As a business owner, you will no doubt already have a website up and running (if you don’t, please click here) but you will probably be missing out on a FREE and very easy way to generate extra revenue for your business, through your existing website.

Most business owners build a website to tell visitors about their own product or services.  Obviously, this is the main objective of having a web site and gaining Internet presence but there is a goldmine for you, just waiting to be explored.

Imagine being able to earn money from your web site without having to do a thing (except provide a link) and from somebody else’s products where you do not have to::

Stock any products yourself
Have to fulfil any orders yourself
Deal with any customers
Deal with any returns

In fact, literally not having to do anything, except recommend the product on your website and then bank the money you earn in commission.  It sounds like the ideal scenario doesn’t it?

Now, I can imagine you will be a little sceptical and are probably thinking:

“Why would I want to advertise somebody else’s web site, products or service on my own web site?”

I can fully appreciate you thinking this but believe me, the benefits far out way the negatives, let me explain.

When visitors to your web site land on one of your web site pages, they are doing so because they are looking for a particular product, information or service they require.  They are hoping that your web site can offer them what they are looking for.  If you are unable to offer the product or service they want, they will go elsewhere and that means you have just lost a sale and somebody else will have made one.

In short, no sale, no money for you!

The really sad thing is, your web site could be generating a huge amount of traffic but if you are not making sales, you may as well have no traffic at all.

However, what if you did have the product, information or service on offer, even if your own business does not sell the particular item the visitor required?

For example:

Imagine if your businesses web site content was 'garden products' but you didn’t sell garden sheds.  If somebody was looking for garden sheds and visited your web site, they would be disappointed and leave.  If you could offer them these products, they would be glad they visited your web site and would visit your web site again in the future.

Being able to offer your visitors a larger and more varied selection of products, will only enhance your visitors experience and will also put more money in your pocket.

Offering products that compliment your own web sites' content but do not actually conflicting with the product you sell, is the easiest way to make more money from your web site.

Other examples could be:

If your web site was a property web site, you could sell home insurance or maybe mortgages.

If it was a hairdressers you could offer hairdryers, shampoos etc

If your web site was travel related you could offer travel insurance, car hire, flights, accommodation etc..

The list is endless and no matter what the content of your web site is, there will be a product or service you can offer, that will compliment the theme or content of your own web site.  The best thing is, you can offer all these products and services at no extra cost to you and make money!  So you really have nothing to lose in doing so.

How Do You Make Money?

There are thousands of major companies (known as merchants) that want to advertise their products on your web site.  They are so eager for you to be affiliated with them, that every time they make a sale via your web site, they will pay you a percentage of the sale in commission.

For example:

Using the ‘Garden Shed’ scenario, imagine if somebody visited your web site and was looking to buy a garden shed.  You do not normally sell garden sheds but you have become affiliated to a company that does sell garden sheds.  On your web site, you will have a link to that company.  When the visitor to your website clicks on that link, they are then diverted to the web site of the merchant to which you are affiliated with, that sells garden sheds.  If the visitor then purchases a garden shed or any other product from that web site, you will get paid a percentage of the sale.

Let's say you receive 10% of the sale and the garden shed is £700, you will receive £70 for doing nothing, on a sale that you wouldn’t normally have been able to fulfll.

It really is the easiest way to make money from other people’s web sites and if you are not doing it, you are missing out on a huge market and an easy way to make money for doing absolutely nothing!

The Added Beauty

I am sure that you may already have realised the added beauty of becoming affiliated with other companies and web sites.  The beauty of being affiliated to these companies is that you make money without actually being at work.   You could be on holiday, asleep, taking the children out for the day or at the gym, it doesn't matter where you are or what you are doing because somebody else will be doing all the work for you.  They take the order, ship the order, deal with all the transactions, any returns and all you do is bank the money!

The other great benefit to being affiliated with these companies, is that you yourself can buy products and services from them through your own links and you will get paid a commission for doing so.

Yes, all the products and services you normally buy and pay for throughout the year, you would receive commission for.

So, the next time you book a holiday, car hire, insurance, clothing, jewellery etc you would get paid!

Just imagine all the money you will spend this year on the products and services you buy and now you will receive 5, 10, 15, 20% of that money back from the companies you would have bought from anyway!  How good is that?

How Do They Know That The Visitor Has Come From Your Web Site?

When you become an affiliate to any company, you are issued with a unique tracking code.  This code is then encrypted in any link you place on your web site.  When a visitor to your web site clicks on your link and is diverted to a web site to which you are affiliated, this code will then track where that visitor originated from i.e. your web site.

Even if the visitor does not buy from the web site to which you are affiliated to on their first visit but then goes back to that web site at a later date and then purchases an item, you will still receive your commission payment, as it will track your link as being the original source. (So long as they haven't visited via another affiliates link).

When a visitor clicks on one of your links, a 'cookie' is generated.  These cookies last for a certain period of time depending on the companies policy.  Each company that you are affiliated to, will have a different period of time to which their cookies will last.  Some may be 7 days, 14 days 28 days or even 365 days.  The 'cookie time' simply means the period of time in which you will earn commission, should that visitor revisit your affiliates web site.

For example:  A visitor to your web site clicks on one of your links and is then diverted to one of the web sites to which you are affiliated with. Let's say that web site offers 'car hire' and the visitor then continues searching for car hire but leaves that website without buying anything.  It may be that the visitor wants to try a few more different web sites to compare prices.  After a couple of days surfing the Internet, they decide that the web site to which you diverted them to (your affiliates web sites) was the cheapest.  They then go direct to your affiliates website via google, without revisiting your web site and without clicking on your link again.  They then purchase car hire on the web site to which you are affiliated, you will still receive commission, so long as it is in the time period of the cookie.

Conclusion:  I cannot enthasise enough, just how easy this is to set up and incorporate in your own web site.  Even if you have a web site but somebody else manages it for you, don't miss out on this.  If somebody else manages your web site and you have to consult them when you want something added to your web site, that is not a problem.   All you need to do is simply follow the instructions below, sign up for your FREE account today and then become affiliated with the companies that you want to be affiliated to.   After you have completed this FREE and easy process, simply send the link text to the person that manages your web site and they can then upload the link to your web site!
