Very well covered points but the major catch of selling affiliate products are they take user to their site and next time they will visit it directly, so you are just paid once for diverting traffic and making a sale.

True, I think compelling content is the key though as you need to engage with people that you connect with

Stunning article yaro!!!! I feel if we use email for promoting purpose it may cause spam issue instead going for natural SEO or PPC for quality traffic & deals. It improves the rate of conversion with no spam or scam issues

It was a long article but it’s worth it. I am interested in affiliate marketing (I have tried starting with it a few times but I never earned a penny). I know that I am doing it wrong and articles like what you have here are a great help. I also learn a lot from the comments (I read many of them too.

Yaro…Thanks again for some great information. I’ve been following you since I started blogging over a year ago. Unfortunately I haven’t had the funds to go all out and join in on your coaching and such, but I have really enjoyed reading all your free content. Your blogging has inspired me to stay with it and keep on plugging away. I have thought of throwing in the towel many a times, but you have always seemed to have great things to say to keep me going and I thank you for that. I emailed you when I first started and asked you for your advice to get me going, not really thinking I would get an email back from such a seasoned blogger, but you did! Your advice to me was to keep writing as much as I could. Write an article a week for 6 months and see what happens. Well your advice has payed off, maybe not so much in my pocket but as far as traffic, pretty good I think. Your are an inspiration to the blogging community and I’m looking forward to more great stuff!

An awesome post and yes affiliate blogging is very frustrating. I am the type who keeps at it though so I’ll stick it out for a couple years.

It’s been a year and I made some referral bonuses in the form of storage space and a meagre AdSense stream.

I live North of you in Townsville at the moment Yaro! I’ll add myself to your list for affiliate blogging for sure. Here’s to Yaro’s blogging success!

Hi Yaro!
It’s an interesting article, but I think that recursive affiliate programs are like a trap: it’s not fair to earn being at the top of the “pyramid”, while the underlying affiliates don’t earn money. They join “the game” since they think to gain something, but this is false…
Pyramidal systems are unreliable and they always fail, it’s only a matter of time.
What do you think?

Yaro,

I’m into affiliate marketing and so far just made 10 bux

I’d say the authentic experience is my way to go – unless I tried it myself, I can’t say a good word or two about it – naturally!

Thanks for this ponder-some post

Cheers!

Thanks for the starting point Yaro – I have a lot of traffic but make very little money with my blog – I now think that creating an email list may be the way to change that.

By: Yaro

Yaro — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 03:52:01 +0000

Hey Scam – The biggest use of an email list is to drive a lot of eyeballs at once to anything you like.

You can point them at blog articles – like reviews – or include the affiliate link in the email itself.

It’s just like blogging, except with email the response is more immediate and in some cases the attention is more focused too, which means you get a better conversion rate.

Like blogging, you can’t just use your email for promotions, although a lot of Internet marketers do so by weaving promotions within content.

I can attest to the fact that just slapping affiliate banners on a blog doesn’t work!

If building an email list is the way to go, what do you actually do with said list to encourage sales that you can’t do on a blog?

Yaro,

I have to agree. You have a great way of explaining things and drawing my attention. I’m a busy guy, but I find myself making time to absorb your in depth info.

Keep up the great work!

AAAhhhh.

A master. Each and every point you drive home, you also “sell” us… right down to getting us to voluntarily give you our e-mail addresses… because that is one of the key elements.

A lot to be learned within this post…

Yet another excellent post.
I think this topic is one that all of us bloggers are consumed with. Most of us are not in this just for the fun and would like to be making more money that we are making from affiliate marketing.
I will be following this topic….
All the best

[...] Yaro Starak shares a lot on affiliate marketing in his long post. You can learn from this guy since he made $4,400 from affiliate marketing in September 2007. Wow I say. Way to go. I really need to learn more on this too as I am currently leveraging on Nintendo Wii games to make some good sales. I’ll be frank with you, the area I make money from affiliate sales, is a highly competitive one, and I would probably make about twice or thrice as much money if I was doing what I do in a different niche. Selling affiliate offers to people interested in making money online is one of the hardest markets to sell in because it is over saturated and people are very skeptical. Unless you are the Rich Jerk or John Reese, two guys with huge email lists of people who love to buy Internet marketing products, you will struggle in this industry. Yaro Starak [...]

If you’re in the “how to make money online” market, you’ll make more in affiliate programs than Google Adsense or most other advertising programs, simply because of the points Yaro mentioned. Affiliate income is also one of my biggest sources of income. I wrote this short article of affiliate blogging tactics: http://www.easywordpress.com/labs/affiliate-product-blogging-model-explained/

Yaro, You’ve way with words, approach and style. I love this post. Informative and yet not too hard selling on your own stuff. That’s your forte. I’ll be back, probably not buying anything as yet. But definitely, I’ve learned a lot from you.
Thank you Yaro.
