So, how does one get started with affiliate links? Can you get into the affiliate marketing industry without a website?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In this guide, you\u2019ll learn how to get started with affiliate marketing in 2021 if you don\u2019t have a website.<\/p>\n<h2>What are affiliate links<\/h2>\n<p>Affiliate links are links you share to promote a product or service to earn money (commissions). You only get paid if people click on the link and subscribe or buy the product. So it\u2019s like working as a sales rep, but without talking to people. Or being limited by only one company.<\/p>\n<h2>How does affiliate marketing work<\/h2>\n<p>Affiliate marketing involves several parties. <br \/>First, there\u2019s a merchant or content creator. They create content or sell products. Anyone can become a merchant and create an affiliate program, as long as they want to sell something.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Then there\u2019s an affiliate, a person who shares the individual link. They share the link and mention the product\u2019s benefits, as they\u2019re interested in people actually buying it. For example, they write a review or even <a href=\"https:\/\/gravitec.net\/blog\/how-to-build-an-affiliate-website\/\">create a website to promote affiliate products<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also a customer, who is vital for affiliate marketing, as you will get paid only if a customer performs a certain action. It\u2019s usually a purchase, but it could also be signing up for a trial period or leaving their email. So, a customer clicks your affiliate link, which saves a cookie file to their device. This file remembers that it\u2019s your link, and when it was clicked. This way, you\u2019ll get paid even if a customer finishes a purchase later. For example, Amazon affiliate cookies last 24 hours. So if a person visited your YouTube channel, clicked on your link, but then got distracted by a delivery, you\u2019ll get your commission if they finish the purchase within 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>There are different types of payment models in affiliate programs:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\u0421\u0420V \u2013 you get paid for placing advertising\u00a0<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">CPA \u2013 you get paid for targeted actions performed by visitors (leaving email, following a link, etc.)<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">CPS \u2013 you get paid if a customer finishes the purchase<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">CPI \u2013 you get paid if a customer installs application<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The types of payments are different in other niches.<\/p>\n<h3>Affiliate programs<\/h3>\n<p>There are plenty of affiliate programs to choose from. The choice will largely depend on your topic of interest, niche, level of expertise, and desired income. You can go for programs that offer higher commissions, like software, but they could have a limited market. Or you can choose lower commissions on products that attract a wider variety of people. You can also choose products that earn different commissions within your affiliate program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"793\" height=\"493\" src=\"https:\/\/piar.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Screenshot-from-2021-06-27-07-12-44.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1549\" srcset=\"https:\/\/piar.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Screenshot-from-2021-06-27-07-12-44.png 793w, https:\/\/piar.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Screenshot-from-2021-06-27-07-12-44-300x187.png 300w, https:\/\/piar.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Screenshot-from-2021-06-27-07-12-44-768x477.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 793px) 100vw, 793px\" \/><figcaption><em>Amazon Associates\u2019 commissions.\u00a0<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you have a blog or a YouTube channel, you might choose a consistent array of products.

Even if they don\u2019t have an affiliate program, they could set up an arrangement with you and, for example, create a coupon discount you could share with your subscribers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Niches that have <a href=\"https:\/\/hostingtribunal.com\/blog\/affiliate-marketing-stats\/#gref\">the most number<\/a> of affiliate programs are:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Fashion (18.7%)<\/li><li>Sporting goods (14.6%)<\/li><li>Health and wellness (11.1%)<\/li><li>Travel (8.6%)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the affiliate programs aren\u2019t limited to the top contenders.

You can create content that targets your audience before you share affiliate links, or you can start by adding the links from the very beginning. The main idea is to provide your visitors with quality content that answers their questions. However, even if you choose a free plan, you\u2019ll still have to pay for hosting, domain, and probably an affiliate theme if you\u2019re choosing WordPress. It all can be a bit much if you\u2019re just getting started. Luckily, there are also free options, like a YouTube channel or social media. You can definitely have a blog on Facebook or Instagram, without having to create a website. However, note that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ftc.gov\/tips-advice\/business-center\/guidance\/ftcs-endorsement-guides-what-people-are-asking\">you\u2019re required to disclose<\/a> that you\u2019re sharing affiliate links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where can you post affiliate links for free?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Social media<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Before creating an account to promote your products, consider your target audience. For example, if you\u2019ve signed up for Amazon\u2019s program, choose image-centric platforms like Instagram or Pinterest. You\u2019ll be able to showcase products and appeal to purchases on the spot. However, if you\u2019re promoting a B2B solution or software, you\u2019ll be better off with Facebook or LinkedIn that will let you create in-depth articles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing to consider is the age of your audience. For example, Gen Z <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketingcharts.com\/digital\/social-media-115845\">dominates <\/a>on TikTok, while millennials make up more than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/398166\/us-instagram-user-age-distribution\/#:~:text=Instagram%20user%20share%20in%20the%20United%20States%202020%2C%20by%20age%20group&amp;text=As%20of%20November%202020%2C%2033.1,the%20United%20States%20were%20female.\">30% <\/a>on Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Social media platforms will also influence the form of your content. And if you add detailed product descriptions or collect customer reviews, you can choose a platform that supports long, descriptive posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>YouTube channel<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>YouTubers can share affiliate links in video descriptions or display ads within the videos on the channel. The more popular a channel gets the more views their videos receive, and the more money you can make. However, you can\u2019t join the YouTube affiliate program from day one: you need 1,000 subscribers to be eligible to monetize your channel through their program. YouTube will work best if you\u2019re promoting something that can be best shown in action. Depending on the product, you can create how-to\u2019s, unboxing videos, or holiday wish lists \u2014 there are so many types of videos to choose from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Blogs<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You can create a blog even without a website, using publishing platforms like Medium. You\u2019ll still be able to create SEO-driven content that answers the questions of your target audience. It\u2019s easier to convince a visitor to buy something if they\u2019re already looking for something, than if they just stumble upon your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you share your affiliate links on social media, it comes with certain limitations. For example, if you share a link to a new account on Instagram, it will be clickable only in your bio. If you share it in the description of a post, it\u2019ll be plain text.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use <a href=\"https:\/\/piar.io\/blog\/what-is-a-link-shortener\/\">link shorteners<\/a> to share links in bio or even post descriptions. This way, your link will be easy to remember and copy. For example, an affiliate link will look something like that: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/?tap_a=30591-fb13f0&amp;tap_s=954310-a538cb\">https:\/\/www.sendinblue.com\/?tap_a=30591-fb13f0&amp;tap_s=954310-a538cb<\/a>. It definitely wouldn\u2019t look good in an Instagram bio and will be too long to copy it from the description.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to optimize&nbsp; your affiliate link:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/app.piar.io\/builder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shorten your affiliate link<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Log in to your affiliate program and generate your unique link.\u00a0<\/li><li>Click \u2018Create new\u2019 and paste your link.<\/li><li>Click on the \u2018Magic wand\u2019 tool to pull all the information from the page. Or fill it in manually. The image and information from the title and description will create a preview when your link is shared on Twitter or in a messenger.

You can also add your domain, or use piar.me domain and customize the URL slug.

You\u2019ll know how many people clicked your link, where they come from, and when they click it. Statistics will help you adapt your strategy, and learn how to promote affiliate links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting traffic to your affiliate link<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Signing up for an affiliate program is just the beginning. If you post affiliate links, but your profile or blog gets zero views, you won\u2019t be able to make any money. Here\u2019s how to get traffic to your affiliate link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Content<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating useful and engaging content is essential to provide enough value for your visitors so that they subscribe and click your affiliate link. But it\u2019s also important for search engines because if people leave your website soon, it didn\u2019t match their searching intent. So, <a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/analytics\/answer\/2525491?hl=en&amp;ref_topic=6156780\">it could influence your blog\u2019s ranking<\/a> on Google. To stay relevant for your readers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Monitor what\u2019s trending in your niche<\/li><li>Set up Google Alerts to find what people are searching<\/li><li>Try tools like Ahrefs or Buzzsumo to learn more about your competitors<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Communicate<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Social media are, well, social. You won\u2019t get very far if you don\u2019t engage with your followers or even your competitors. Mentioning competitors, you could try and establish some connections with other marketers. Share or comment on their posts if you have something valuable to add. You can create great content, but it\u2019s hard to do everything on your own. Other marketers could be open to collaborations, creating guest posts, or help with link building.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do your keyword research<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re promoting your offer through a blog post or YouTube channel, research what keywords people might use while searching for a relevant product. Use tools like Ahrefs or Google keyword planner to find target keywords to include into your headlines, meta title, and copy or the title of your video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Stay consistent&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stick to a consistent schedule, don\u2019t switch niches if you get impatient. Promoting anything on social media is about building an audience, which takes time. Regular posting will keep you accountable, and give your readers something to expect. You can start with trying different posting schedules, to find the one that gets more views and stick to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Promote your content in target groups<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are all kinds of groups on Facebook or LinkedIn. Use their search and share links to relevant products or your content. However, quality groups with active members usually frown upon spam, so wait till it\u2019s relevant, and participate in discussions, as people might also visit your profile if you\u2019re more visible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Create guest posts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you submit a guest post, you include your short bio, often including your social media. You could collaborate with other creators and create guest posts or videos for other blogs, channels, or Medium online publications. Guest posts work best if they\u2019re a win-win. You get access to a wider audience, and another blogger gets quality content. Research blogs and channels in your niche, contact the owners, and ask if they\u2019re interested in the guest blogging. You could study their blogs, and create an idea to pitch to them. Then, once your pitch is approved, you can create a guest post. The same goes for Medium publications. Find one that fits your niche and study article requirements. You can embed your videos into the article and add the links to your blog posts. Once your post is approved, it\u2019ll be recommended to a much wider audience of the online publication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to promote affiliate links without a website:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Sign up for the affiliate programs with the products that match your interest.<\/li><li>Choose a social media platform you\u2019re most familiar with.
