Creating An Affiliate Link On Your Blog

You are using affiliate marketing to make money online, and you are new to Internet marketing. After hearing that affiliate marketing is the fastest and easiest way and advise for newbies (which I agree as well). Now you have a free blog that will host your content, its just that you are new to this Internet business, and you want to add in your affiliate link on your blog.

There are basically four ways that you can use to create affiliate link on blog:

Using Anchor Text For Affiliate Link

This is one of the simplest form to creating affiliate link on your blog, what you need to do is to highlight the words, click on the insert link, where you insert the affiliate link generated from your affiliate vendor or affiliate network site. Make sure that you set the anchor text to “open in new window”, or “open in new tap”, as your readers may want to continue to read what are in your blog, and to continue to make your blog sticky for your readers.

Using Pictures With Affiliates Links

When promoting a product or services, it works very well when you have pictures that will help your readers see. There has been a research that man have been condition to be attracted to pictures that look nice or the things that they visualize in their mind to look like, so if you are selling an Ebook, have a picture of a book in your blog. When you add in the picture (s), make sure to add in the affiliate link onto the picture(s). What you need to do is to add in your affiliate link onto the picture on the ‘Link URL’, this is for wordpress blogs, if you are using others, it will almost be the same. See picture below.

Using Redirect Script For Affiliate Link

For this kind of creating affiliate link, there are the free ones and not free ones. For the free ones, you can use Tiny URLs where you can change your affiliate link to a shorting version, that does not look like an affiliate link. But the thing is that it looks like a spam URL to the readers. So the not free one (which I recommend) is to purchase a domain name that has your first name with recommends in it, it will look like this www.YourfirstnameRecommends.com/ProductName. Why do I recommend this is because once you have set it up, all you need to do is to copy and paste the link to your email newsletter or anywhere you post on the Internet. The second reason is that it shows that you (your first name) recommends this product, it will look good on the whole as well. By the way you will need a script to do that too.

Using GoCodes Plugins For Affiliate Link

This is only for WordPress users only, as you can direct your readers to your affiliate sales page with a URL that look like this: www.YourDomainName.com/go/ProductName/ this is also good for you if you do not plan to invest any money on affiliate links. You can download GoCodes Plungin here.
