Your website: The importance of having a very good website as an affiliate marketer cannot be overemphasized. You can use your website to promote your affiliate products effectively.



I always advise people that want to venture into affiliate marketing to, first of all, start with a niche blog. Because with little budget you can set it up. Some people prefer doing reviews about affiliate products on their website and probably make a lot of money from it.



You need to set up your affiliate links on your content in strategic positions to make people click on it and possibly purchase your product.



Incentives: when it comes to internet businesses and affiliate marketing specifically, there is a whole lot of competition and if you employ the right strategy and methods you would probably outsmart your competitors and make a lot of money as an affiliate marketer.



One of the best ways of beating your competitors is to try as much as possible to build an email list. You can simply do this by giving your web visitors incentives like free ebooks in order to drop their emails. You can use this method to build your email list and of course, promote your Affiliate products to them shortly.
