There’s a group of entrepreneurs who’ve figured out affiliate marketing and are putting up world class numbers.

I doubt they’re on Reddit BUT if so, I and a bunch of other people would love to hear your origin stories.

The best affiliate marketers choose to promote products they are passionate about and use themselves. That’s what I do. Advertising is always the most expensive investment but there are creative ways to get your affiliate links out there for free. Blogs are great. You can even use YouTube to promote whatever you choose as well. I personally love using landing pages. So let’s say that I find a product or service that I really feel strongly about and it pays a good commission, I’ll reserve a domain name that sounds something like it, or sounds like the problem and it solves and then I’ll make a one page promotion of it with buttons at the bottom for people to press that will take them to the actual vendor. Pay per click is very powerful, but can get expensive if you’re not careful. You can do paid advertisements on Facebook Instagram, and even here on Reddit. Also, giving away something for free is a great way to promote whatever affiliate link you’re promoting.

For example, right now if you go on social media, you’re gonna see many companies offering to give people a Shopify e-commerce website for as little as $20. They are doing this because they are actually affiliates of Shopify. They make money from Shopify when people go to your e-commerce store and buy anything.

Another creative way to spread your affiliate link would be to write a short how to book about something that you happen to be knowledgeable and passionate about and try to promote products that the fall into that category and have the links in your book. This way you can promote your book by giving it away to people for free. I hope this helps you!
