Blogs provide a lot of different opportunities for bloggers to earn money. Advertising revenue, direct sales as well as contextual links are some of the most popular money-makers. One of the best ways for you to earn money with a blog, however, is to find a suitable affiliate program. An affiliate program that fits the content of your blog has a far greater potential for earning you money than most of the other options.
How to find Suitable Affiliate Programs
1. Step 1
Identify categories of products relevant to the topic or niche of your blog. For instance, if you blog about photography look for anything a photographer could need. Seek out products like digital cameras, special lenses, lens cleaners, filters, tripods and books about photography.
2. Step 2
Check with your preferred product vendor to see if they have an affiliate program you can use on your blog or website. Many companies participate in affiliate programs, either directly to you or through affiliate websites like Commission Junction or Link Share.
3. Step 3
Choose products that are relevant to your blog's target demographic. Even if your blog is about parachuting and you can't find a good parachuting affiliate program, chances are you can find products that are relevant to your average reader based on their age, gender, hobbys.
4. Step 4
Re-evaluate the affiliate programs you employ on a regular basis. Some affiliate programs may end without notifying you, and you will end up with a dead link on your blog. Some affiliate programs will make you more money than others, too. Be prepared to make changes and find new affiliate programs for your blog if need should be.
Good luck!
