Can I include my affiliate link in my article on ezinearticles? If they do not accept affiliate links then who does?
What you can do is to: 1) register a domain name related to your niche 2) Put a link to that domain name in your resource box on your article 3) Do a top level redirect on your domain name which goes directly to the vendor's site through your affiliate link. A top level redirect is when you log in to your control panel and set your entire domain to redirect via your affiliate link. So you're not just redirecting a single page. Ezinearticles is fine with this. Usually it's best to just direct people to a real blog or website that you own that has some unique content on it related to your niche because you'll get organic traffic over time to your own site and you're not just wasting that entire domain name at ezinearticles. But some people swear by this technique. You can pick up cheap .info domains for this purpose if you want and add them to your shared hosting plan and the set up cost per domain will be minimal. Dan
This is great advise and works very well especially if your affiliate page does a superior job at selling the product. It is very easy to lose a potential customer, so the fewer clicks they have to make, the better! Also, Goarticles does allow affiliate links, but Google doesn't give them nearly as much love as they give to ezinearticles
Alternatively, you could Iframe instead of redirecting, this may very well get around their system as well
Affiliate links are accepted by goarticles, as far as I know. Let's share any other article directories which accept direct affiliate links.
Yea buy a domain name and forward that domain name to the affiliate link and you can mask the domain name as well it will help to rank your domain name. But make sure to ask your affiliate manager first as some affiliate programs don't allow masking domains.
Thanks, this was very helpful. I agree that using a .info domain will also make sense since it's cheaper and just use for redirecting purposes. So it doesn't need to look credible as the visitor won't be seeing it for long.
Content Hangover accepts affiliate links. You have to use anchor text and hyperlink them, but they do offer it. I placed it in my signature area to help.
