Affiliate Marketing Without A Website

If you were thinking about making money through the
internet, but you don't have the experience or capital to
work with, don't you worry. There are a lot of online
marketing options for you to choose from. One of these
options and the best for beginners, is affiliate marketing.

affiliate marketing provides an opportunity for first time
online marketers, to market a product or service online
without having your own product to sell. All you have to
do, is to sign up with an affiliate marketing program and
start picking the products or service you want to promote.

As an affiliate you get paid a commission by the merchant.
Whenever you directed a visitor to the merchant site,
through your affiliate link, and the visitor makes a
purchase, you earn a commission.

Becoming an affiliate is quick and easy, and most of these
programs are free to join. But despite this, and all the
benefits promised by affiliate programs, some people are
hesitant to get started.

One of the reasons why some people remain hesitant, is
because they believe they must have a website to start
marketing online. But is a website required or necessary in
affiliate marketing?

Yes, you should have your own web site, but this is not
necessary in the beginning. You may not have the experience
to build your site or the money to have it done for you.

There are many strategies that can be used, to promote your
affiliate products or services without a website. Among
these are email marketing, off-line promotions, you can
write an e-book with your links included and give it away
free, you can write ezines, and articles etc. etc.

Email marketing, or maintaining an email list, is the most
popular affiliate marketing strategy that does not require
the affiliate to have a website.

What you do here, is to collect and maintain a list of your
prospective customers, provide them with articles that are
relevant to the products you are promoting.

Your articles should not be promotional, some individuals
could find this annoying. Instead provide them with
informative articles, slipping in your affiliate link,
without making it look like you are selling something.

Another strategy used to promote your affiliate products
and services, is off-line marketing. Among this type of
promotion are classified ads, brochures and flyers.
Classified ads works better compared to the other two,
because classified ads in periodicals gets a wider
audience.

If you like writing, writing an e-book can be one of the
best ways to promote your affiliate products without a
website. Just like in the emails and news letters, keep
your promotions down to a minimum. you don't want to annoy
them, they may unsubscribe from your list. Let your ads
blend in with the content where it make sense.

As you get started, you will discover many other ways you
can market your products or services.
