The fact that I work from home and make my money online means I need to understand affiliate article marketing. There are some people whose primary business it is to make money promoting other people’s products. People do this on ebay, craigslist, or via affiliate article marketing.

But chances are if you have an online business, and you have used other products and services that you really like – that you could easily promote those products to members of your list or visitors to your site.

You are in a great position to use affiliate article marketing. You already have a relationship with your list. That sure is half the battle. Creating recommendations, reviews, and resource lists for your list members will definitely result in more income for your business.

So Here’s An Affiliate Marketing Shortcut…

You probably spend enough time writing your own content right? Well, the solution to effortlessly adding affiliate income is to market products that offer articles as one of their affiliate tools. That way all there is to do is copy, paste, promote and get paid.

Articles have been proven to be an effective and versatile affiliate tool. Many of the stronger marketers on the web have been offering them as tools to their affiliates since – forever.

How Can I Use Affiliate Content?

  1. You can use them as solo affiliate mailings to your list.
  2. You could use them as a “feature article” in your newsletter or ezine.
  3. You can feature and highlight them on your site(s).
  4. Add them to your Facebook Notes section.
  5. Feature them in your Ning community or forum.
  6. Then as an added traffic booster,  you can promote the articles via Twitter or Ping.fm – just like you would your own stuff.

Where Do I Find These Types of Affiliates?

FIRST – The first products and services you want to promote as an affiliate article marketer are items that you have used yourself and LOVED. Those are of course the easiest to make money from.

More than likely, if they convinced you to buy, they have articles lying around that you can use as an affiliate. Check and see if they have any articles published over at the major article directories such as ezinearticles.com

SECOND – The next place is to go on affiliate leader Clickbank. They have a huge affiliate network and goo-gobs of top-selling products that you can promote. Visit the site of the product you are interested in and see if there is an affiliate page.

Some site owners will have affiliate tools ready to go right off of their site. Others will want you to join their affiliate program and then grab the articles and other affiliate tools from their affiliate site.

If you would like to promote my hot new article marketing course Articology (recurring monthly income!), feel free to grab one of my article marketing articles over at http://WrittenByLisa.com. Don’t forget to add your affiliate link from Clickbank so that you are paid.

Spammers are everywhere so I have decided to just mark all comments that don’t add value to the post and those that use keywords instead of their name as spam. Yeah, I have a real big pet peeve when it comes to blog comment spam. When I see a blog comment that really says nothing but has a link attached I get an itchy trigger finger that likes hitting the spam or delete button and I use it.

It just took me about a half hour to go through and mark as spam all the comments that spammers leave for my blogs. It takes me time and pisses me off but I am willing to mark them all as spam if these idiots aren’t going to bother leaving added value.

Really, what is the point of leaving a dumbass comment, if it’s not an attempt at getting a back-link by spamming me? If people are doing it just to try to get someone to link back to them or that they will get more site visitors then I think these people are a little nuts and wasting our time as I delete that crap as fast as I see them.

What is the purpose of comment on blogs?

In my books commenting is there to add value to the post. It is a great way to strike up a conversation with the author and other commentors. That’s just good for business.

When I get comments I don’t just accept them. I look at the comment and if it’s a worthy comment I then check to see if they keyworded the name field and then I look to see what the link is they left. If the link is not relevant I most likely will delete it.

However if the comment truly adds value, which means they took the time to read it and then comment I may keep it. That will depend on what site they have linked to. If the site is anything I don’t approve of the comment is deleted or at least the link is deleted.

What Will Get Your Comment Rejected?

  • Not Using Your Real Name: I do prefer people to use their real names instead of keywords in the name field but I can get over that if the comment is good and like I said, adds value to the post.
  • Butter Me Up Without Adding Value: A sure fired way to get your comment deleted is to just tell me I did a great job and butter me up. It doesn’t work with me so you just get deleted.
  • Duplicating Links: Another way to get me to delete your comments is to add the same link in the comment as you added to the URL field. Having your link in the URL field is sufficient for people finding your site.

If they can’t leave a value added comment why bother unless they are spamming and it takes a real dumbass not to know what the difference is between a value added comment and just plain spam.

If you want to earn an income on the Internet you’ll need an effective website if that’s the model you choose to work with. Then… you have to “help” people find your fabulous website. The flood and hordes of people killing themselves to get to your site is called: Traffic. Your site needs to be able to convert, so of course the higher your traffic numbers, the better off you are in terms of ability to produce some sales. This is the goal for every Internet marketer: to make as a high a profit as possible. Keep reading to see what you can start doing to get more visitors to your websites.

First of all, you should list your site with link directories. Be sure that the directories you submit your site to are moderated and owned privately. You can do this without spending any money. Getting links from many directories can help to raise your website’s page rank. The fact that all sites in these directories have to be approved also helps, as people will trust your site more when they see it listed in one of them. This means that directory visitors are more likely to click through to your site.

You can use pay-per-click advertising to get traffic.

Start out with a small budget so you don’t spend too much. PPC campaigns can bring you lots of traffic if you set them up with the right key words and write good ads.

The most popular Pay Per Click campaign builder is Google Adwords. Many Internet marketers have had great success using this service and others like it. It’s important to make your ads interesting enough that people will want to click on them!

Look around, find and contact the publishers of good quality newsletters, or ezines, in your market topic. Try to build a relationship, and then request if you can contribute some articles to their ezines. You’re not doing this for direct payment, you’re doing it for exposure of your name and your website to the audience. You’ll have greater success if your content is presented well and provides good value to their readers. You never know what may come of it, maybe a paid writing job.

There is no shortage of methods to attract website traffic; in fact, it can be difficult to know which ones you want to use. For best results, try to use one traffic generating strategy at a time and don’t try to use several at once. Give each method a fair chance to work; if you don’t see results in several months, you can try something else.

Then when you find something that works well, you can increase your efforts in that direction to get even better results. More visitors to your website can only help you. A certain percentage of your visitors will become customers, so more traffic means more money!
