Before I end this topic, I want to touch on a little bit about Affiliate Marketing on Amazon.
Everyone is aware of the marketing giant that Amazon is and lots of people have been making money online thanks to them.
You can do things like:
The latter being what I want to talk about.
I already included it as one of the affiliate marketing programs you should take advantage of as a blogger.
There are so many different categories to choose from and so many products that could definitely be helpful to your audience.
It’s also free to join and there really isn’t any screening process.
The only major requirement is that you get a referral sale within 6 months of signing up for the program.
While all of that sounds great, I bring up this section because everything you’ve read thus far is also applicable to any product you choose to promote from Amazon.
Since it’s so easy to join you might be tempted to find random products and place them all over your site.
In some instances that may work but not so much if you’re building a personal or niche brand.
People want to see how those Amazon products worked for you and how they could be of benefit to them.
At the very least, put some effort into learning about the product(s) you’re promoting.
It’s really worth it.
Also very important is the fact that you should ALWAYS abide by Amazon’s Associate Program Policies.
There are certain things you can and can’t do. So stick to the rules and avoid getting on their bad side.
