If you want to try your hand at affiliate marketing (why not, it's easy!) but
the idea of promoting a bunch of different products you have no interest in
doesn't hold much appeal, then niche affiliate marketing is probably for you.
Many people simply look online at the programs and websites that offer the
buggest commission for affiliate marketers, they build websites promoting those
programs, or they write ads or articles to do so, and they sign up for several
different types of programms. Many of them are programs about how to make money
on the Internet, which is one of the hottest types of affiliate marketing
programs out there.
But what if you don't care for that scattershot approach of several different
types of programs? And what if the idea of getting started in affiliate
marketing by promoting programs that teach affiliate marketing or promise to
help customers make money online feels strange to you or makes, you uncomfortable
(particularly if you haven't used the program, and really don't know if it
really delivers on its promise)? There is a way to make money with affiliate
marketing without making yourself uncomfortable with what you're selling, or
having to sell several different types of products: niche affiliate marketing.
What knowledge do you have that other people might want? If you're shaking your
head, thinking you couldn't possibly have any valuable knowledge, you're not
thinking hard enough. Think of everything you've done successfully or know how
to do. Just because these things came easily to you, or you think of them as
everyday humdrum things in your own life, doesen't mean that other people won't
find it fascinating or helpful. If you have children, that alone is a gold mine
of opportunity for affiliate marketing. Just based on your experience with
raising a child, you have advice and tips to offer potential parents who are
hungry for information about the best way to do things. If you've had pets, the
same holds true. If you know how to golf, or spelunk, or catch record-breaking
catfish.....anything you do holds the potential for niche affiliate marketing.
You might be wondering how this leads to niche affiliate marketing. It's
simple. Let's say your interest is parenting. Find a parenting and
child-related merchant that offers an affiliate program. Once you get that set
up, then write an article about parenting. Don't panic, it's not hard! Simply
write a short article, about 500 words or the length of this article about
something relating to parenting. Possibilities are the steps you took to wean
your child from bottles or pacifiers, how you began teaching the child to read,
home remedies you used for diaper rash. You don't have to be a writer, you only
have to be able to convey that information. Then at the end you put your
affiliate link.
The more you write the more people will read and click your link, so the more
money you'll earn with niche affiliate marketing.
