This is one of the best ways to make serious money online as a blogger. Why did I say that? It is very easy to participate, it brings money twice and I am telling you that most (if not all) all bloggers are into affiliate marketing. But this method is for bloggers who’ve been in the blogging world awhile.
Affiliate marketing: When you refer or sell something for the commission, it is known as affiliate marketing. Hey, that’s my definition. There are reputable companies out there that are ready to pay you base on 60/ 40 commissions. The thing is you’ll make money on every sale you make.
Do you think it’s difficult to sell those products? Nope! It’s not, as a blogger who is already in the game will probably have a good amount of followers/ subscribers so with these followers, you can introduce your product to them and I assure you that you will make sales as long as you have those who believe in you.
Tips: Try to make as many subscribers as possible by doing giveaways, encouraging your readers to subscribe, create a landing page… provide your readers with valuable content, making them believe you and trust your brand. Before you know it, your email list will grow.
