How I made my first affiliate sales

Hi all,

I have posted about my first sale here: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2183375 and I promised that I will show how I did it.


I followed 3 easy steps:

1. Forum marketing:

There are thousands of forums online. All you have to do is go to Google.com and type in the subject of your market and forum. For example, if you are promoting golf products then type in golf + forum in the search box.

Now, make sure that the forum allows you to have a signature. What you will do is edit your signature and place a link to your affiliate product in the signature. Now, when you make posts your affiliate link will be in your signature and interested people will click it.

Of course you have to be an active part of the forum community.


2. I recommend products with almost every blog post:

People read my blog posts and they find a link to the product. Probably if they like the post they will want to learn more about it, so they will maybe click the link and maybe buy the product.


3. I make connections with publishers/writers:

I email book writers with this subject: "Partnership proposal about your xxxx book". I tell them that I will feature their book in the next article. When the post gets published, they promote it, which not only generates traffic for me, it gives me commission from the sale.
So it's good for me and good for them.


Hope this helped.

Have a nice day.

Best Regards,
Akos
