    Thanks Yaro

    You make it sound so easy to recruit affiliates… I guess like everything it comes down to the networking.

    You’ve got some great tools in your affiliate area. Your articles are already on my blog.

    Looking forward to the launch.

    Cheers

    These are some great ways to recruit affiliates. You could also setup a 2-tier program, so that affiliates will be motivated to recruit other affiliates. If your budget allows for it, hiring a full time affiliate manager can really boost everything. They can help the affiliates on a regular basis and actively recruit new people.

      Yep – great idea about the two tiers. It’s not something that is very common unless you have very strong relationships in place, but it can very quickly build a ton of affiliates.

      Affiliate managers are great too – I’m thinking of getting one later in the year too.

        Great stuff. I’ve just been introduced to twitter today, and I never would have thought of using twitter to grab some affiliates. Great heads up!

        You really don’t think that 2-tier affiliate programs aren’t that great?

    Hi Yaro,

    You taught moments ago about building your site and newsletter subscribers – with ease. This time you did it again :)

    You made affiliate stuffs look so easy – well, because it is actually practical to do – it’s down to networking, like you said.

    All efforts are not really useful until you get a certain number of visitors visiting your site, right?

      I guess the last bit of your comment is true. You do need a few bits of visitors to come to your site if you want to promote your affiliate program.

      But some of his methods do work well, like posting it to your newsletters and email sigs. That way, you can grab affiliates as long as you network and what-not.

    Is it possible that your hair is totally different from the picture in your header? I had to look twice to realise it is the same person :-)

    Webmaster forums might be a way to find affiliates. Of course, some forum members might be paid SEO people. These people might only be seeking a paycheck from a person who is in affiliate marketing.

    However, others might be affiliate marketers who are also SEO people. Finally, you might meet SEO people who do SEO for other people but also are interested in making money for themsleves in affiliate marketing.

    Of course, forums about affiliate marketing would also be a good way to find affiliates.
