Dear professionals, I have one affiliate site http://www.calltone.net/. As far as I learned, one should have more than one cite to have a some income from web. I am planning to create several sites devoted to different affiliate programs. The question is: what is the best way to work with affiliate programs? Is this a good idea to create a site for each affiliate program? Need your advise. More info: My main purpose is to start having income from web, I am a beginner, so it is difficult for me to create a good site with unique content, so I concentrated on affiliate programs. ___________________________________________________ Michael ___________________________________________________ http://www.calltone.net/ - Prepaid phone cards online.
You should create sites related to different subjects and add affiliate programs to the sites according to the subject matter. If your sites sells TV's you could have 5 affiliate progams selling TV's.
I don't agree. I think you should focus your efforts on creating one successful business before creating several sites that you never focus your efforts on. Make the calltone site the best it can be before creating a bunch of substandard affiliate sites that don't provide any value to the web.
Start a website about a topic that interests you. Write content about this topic regularly and post it to this website. After you have built up some content then start worrying about monetizing the website. Nobody will link to an affiliate website, search engines don't see any value in them... leaving you to pay for traffic to these sites. Can you find a niche where the cost of the traffic is less than you get paid by the affiliate program... in certain cases it may be possible but the fact that the affiliate program exists already creates competition for you that has experience in your market place. Writing your own content about a topic you are interested in and knowledgeable about brings value to the net... that is never going to go out of style. People are impatient to make money with their websites and really miss the point of the internet and what people are using it for... don't be impatient to make money. Create something of quality. Please!
Definitely a quality site is number one. Later on when you have visitors that like your site and have a sense of trust in you, add affiliate links that you really approve of yourself. Having so-so quality in the affiliate links can lead to visitors losing their interest in your site.
