Making Money with Articles: Becoming an Affiliate


If you can either write articles or possess the promotion and marketing knowledge to publicize articles that others write, becoming an affiliate for several companies may be a great way for you to generate a good income right from your own home. You can do this by receiving part of the revenue off of sales the company gets from people who “click through” from your website through the company’s links that are placed on your pages.

Since you is going to be promoting a product or service, you may need a killer sales pitch and website content to obtain your readers interested in the merchandise, convince them that they cannot live without the product, and to keep them returning to your website time and time again for additional recommendations and your useful content, that will get them clicking on your links once again. Although many affiliate companies only provide you with money off of the first sale you make from each customer, you will find the option of promoting a good range of companies to be able to still make a profit from your returning customers.



If you cannot write this kind of content of your own, there are many ways to get free or paid content to put on your affiliate website. There are many reasons why paying for such articles would be to your advantage. First, you will be able to tell the writer exactly what you want, what product you are attempting to sell, and what direction they are able to go in to keep your readers interested and informed. However, when you search for free content, you're limited to what is already out there. Secondly, you will own the copyright for this content. That means that no one else can reuse it without your consent. Should you opt for free content, you will be sharing that quite happy with an unknown amount of other affiliate websites, as well as the original author will be able to place their byline at the bottom of the article which could lead to them stealing your traffic.



There are lots of products that have nice affiliate commission rates for those who know how to pre-sale their product and deliver click through customers who are ready to buy. As long as you choose to promote a service or product that can be very useful to a wide variety of people, then pre-selling your selected company may not be that hard at all. The key in cases like this may likely be getting those customers to your website so that they have a chance to see your recommendations and click on your affiliate links.
