Promoting affiliate programs is one of the easiest ways to get into
business online. No need to worry about products to create, package and
price. No need to worry about building a complete website either. Just
send people to the seller.
Can't get much easier than that! In fact, check out a couple quick and
easy resources and strategies that can help with your affiliate sales.
Splash Page / Ezine / Ads
No, you don't need a website, but how about a page to capture names and
email addresses for your own use, before you send visitors off to the
seller? This way you can get a chance to build a relationship with your
prospects and buyers for repeat attempts at that first close and on to
additional or repeat sales in the future, and referrals.
Make the best of your opportunities by either seeking professional web
page building help or doing it yourself. Head to Elance.com to post your
project and hire help, for example. Or grab a library book or surf the
Internet for help creating your own HTML page, or see about using software
like Microsoft Frontpage or an online company like GoDaddy.com to build.
When people subscribe to your splash page above, start sending them a
weekly newsletter or ezine. Include content about what you are trying
to sell, a feature or review article, for instance, on the product. And
insert your affiliate link to the product you're promoting with a digital
photo or other graphic or banner, if possible, in full color.
Mix in some other advertising throughout your ezine promotions for extra
return on investment (ROI) of your invested interest, time, energy and
marketing. Popular strategies include using programs like Google Adsense
and Clickbank products.

with only about a one- to two-hour learning curve to get all set up.
Articles / Audio / Video /
Write and submit articles about your affiliate products to online
article directories and offline media (magazines, newspapers, newsletters,
TV, radio). And include a link to your splash page in your byline or article,
if possible. Then spice up your articles, splash page and ezine with multimedia,
adding links to your audio / video content.
