Recommended advertising and affiliates.

Hi there,

I have been promising myself to try and make some money.
If I had some recommendations it might help me to pull the thumb out of you know where.

I was wondering if you will be putting up a top ten list of ways to advertise any website and use affiliates.

I have looked at quite a few affiliates but all the double talk and sales bunk is driving me to distraction.

If somebody with experience recommended just one or two of each type of advertising and affiliates it would be a good starting point for newbies like me.
The emphasis would be that somebody has else all ready been driven to distraction
Show me the money!

 

You need to affiliate according to your niche is the word of mouth, but i'm sure you could google search some general affiliates.

If you want to get at least few bucks from your site on a monthly recurring basis, then you might want to read this thread. Its not much but you can get at least 5 UK Pound per month. No selling involved, just simple ads banner placement.

Try to find your niche, a hungry market to which you can offer your products.

If you know a lot about your niche it is better, even if many people look only for hungry markets, but if you know your niche you can build a huge business, because you can really help these people and also offer more products in the back end...

There are many ways to advertise your product
articles, press release, JV, classifies, web 2.0 etc.

 

I guess one can look at making money from affiliate programs in a couple of different ways.

1) With a products only site.
A good example would be an Amazon bookstore, using an AWS script. This type of site would simply focus on selling product and making commissions.

2) Content site
This is a more subtle way of generating affiliate income. An example would be a review site where you'd provide your feedback/opinions of a product and provide an affiliate link for it or related products.
There are also a whole lot of independent affiliate programs, but they may require a bit more searching. A good example is wantedpronto.co.uk/
