The best affiliate programs for making money. Reward for showing. Reward for a specific action

More and more readers of our blog are interested in the possibility of making money on affiliate programs without having their own website. This question is very relevant, because... it interests many people who want to start working on the Internet.

We have already talked about where to find. Today we will talk about 6 proven methods of promotion, used by many Internet entrepreneurs, to make money on affiliate programs.

1. Social networks are the first step to first results

Social networks are visited by thousands of people every day, which makes it possible to promote various affiliate programs and regularly earn money from it. We will describe 4 proven methods used specifically in social networks.

1.1 Postings in open groups.

This is perhaps the most common way to promote your referral link without investment. The operating principle is very simple:

write several versions of selling and catchy text in advance;
insert your affiliate link into each of them;
Find groups on social networks where the wall or discussions are open to everyone;
insert your text with an affiliate link.

Beware of account blocking when working through vk.com, use fake pages for posting.

There are plenty of open groups on Odnoklassniki, VKontakte, Facebook and other social networks, so the scope of work is quite extensive. However, doing these steps manually can take up too much of your time. Automatic programs come to the rescue, performing all these actions for you. In our course on making money on social networks, we talked about many methods of automatic and manual promotion. Each of them is tested and will help you achieve the desired result.

1.2 Sales through your group.

Creating your own group will only take a couple of minutes. Your main task is to constantly attract new subscribers and provide them with useful information. When the number of living participants reaches at least 1000 people, you can already post your links and recommend affiliate products or services to everyone. Developing a group is much easier than developing a website, so you shouldn’t have any particular difficulties here.

1.3 Direct sales.

You will be surprised, but direct sales through correspondence without telephone or Skype communication can bring good results. One of our team members at the very beginning of his activity using this method earned 20-50 dollars a day! Agree that for a beginner this is a very good intermediate result.

How do direct sales occur through correspondence on the Internet?

You start or buy yourself a new page. The page must be WOMEN'S! As practice shows, beautiful girls get answered much more often. Potential clients pay attention to such pages and are more receptive to such requests, which makes it possible to make a sale faster and more profitably. Be sure to add as many photos as possible, join thematic communities and start looking for potential buyers in them.

For example, if you sell the services of the Look Freedom team for website promotion or creation, then your target audience here is commercial groups. These are online stores selling clothes, shoes, accessories, household appliances, computers, etc. You simply contact the administrator and gently offer to use your services. This may seem too banal or simple to you, but many have managed to create a good business this way.

An example from life.

As an example, let’s tell a story about one freelancer. One of our friends, having barely learned the basics of website building, decided to try his hand at practice. For a very long time he looked for an opportunity to prove himself on remote work sites, but could not find a suitable project. Later, he followed our advice and began looking for customers directly through social networks.

The principle of operation was very simple. He created a page on behalf of an attractive girl and began browsing commercial groups. He did not immediately offer his services. First, I asked questions, found out on what platforms this company’s advertisements were placed, how delivery, payment, etc. took place. And when the conversation was at least partially related to the site, he wrote that he had a very good friend who could help with the development.

Because he communicated on behalf of a beautiful and attractive girl, the administrators believed him and asked him to leave the programmer’s contact information. In response to this, he reset his real page and continued communication as a performer.

The best part is that this method can be used to sell almost any product or service.

There are many similar examples. The main thing is to understand that in 30 minutes spent on VKontakte you will not immediately receive mountains of gold. It is necessary to regularly devote time to this technique, and then the first results will not take long to appear.

1.4 Advertising on social networks.

Unlike the options described above, you will have to invest money here. The best decision in this situation would be to advertise your group, because... It’s more profitable to try to promote several affiliate programs at once than to spend your time and money on just one. Fill it with useful content, photos and videos and you can start creating an advertising campaign.

There are two fastest ways to advance on social networks:

contextual advertising;
advertising in thematic public pages.

This is a very effective way to attract targeted traffic, because... people constantly see your ad, which increases the chance of clicking on it. In the future, we will tell you about the main principles of such promotion, but for now let’s move on to the next point.

Advertising in thematic groups is most often placed on the community wall. The customer pays for posting one or more posts for a certain period of time. This method is also very effective, but here you need to follow certain rules so that your advertising budget is not wasted:

check how active this group is. See how often news or new information is posted there, how often it is shared with friends or commented on. The more active the group is, the greater the chances of attracting quality traffic;
find out the number of “dead participants”, through a special application. This will help identify the percentage of blocked or deleted users who do not take any part in the life of the community;
find out prices in other thematic public pages and create an approximate amount of advertising budget for your topic. By analyzing the market, you can find not only a better offer, but also a more effective one.

2. Postings on thematic forums and blogs.

Let us immediately note that you should not take our advice as a call for SPAM. Careful and competent work on forums or thematic blogs will also allow you to attract your target audience. You shouldn’t immediately post your referral links or flashy text asking you to go to the site. Such methods have long been outdated, they irritate users and attract a lot of attention from moderators. Share your impressions of the product or service you are promoting, ask the opinions of other visitors, etc.

How much time do you spend on forums? Your rating is your key to success. Users are much more willing to trust more established consultants than newcomers. Unobtrusive advertising will generate more trust and people will be drawn to you.

3. Contextual advertising in Yandex and Google.

Not the cheapest, but one of the most effective ways to attract targeted traffic directly from search engines. For each click, money will be withdrawn from your account, so it is worth considering some features when using this method:

affiliate site conversion. When choosing a product or service, be sure to find out about its conversion rate, i.e. what is his ratio of purchases to visits?. How to calculate it and what will it mean? Everything is very simple. For example, 250 people followed your link in a day, but only 9 closed transactions. Then the conversion will be equal to 3.6%: (9 / 250) * 100% = 3.6%. Many affiliate program directories indicate website conversion, because... This is the most important indicator characterizing the effectiveness of its work. A good conversion rate of 10% is considered satisfactory, including when setting up contextual advertising. However, with various methods of promotion (for example, by sending mass letters), you can make good money at 3-7%. It is from this point that the calculation of the relevance of setting up contextual advertising and investing money in its budget is taken;
payback, i.e. How much does one transaction pay for the budget spent on it? For example, to make a sale your site must be visited 50 times. 1 transition (1 click) costs 10 cents. 50 clicks are $5, and the cost of an information product or service will cost $10-50. In this case, you can recoup your advertising budget several times;
correct setting. A well-tuned advertising campaign reduces the cost per click and helps increase the number of conversions.

The budget here can also be based on the number of impressions, but this method is ineffective in promoting affiliate programs.

If you don’t know how to set up contextual advertising, then contact a specialist from our team for help or you can try to do it yourself. The information on our website and a large number of lessons on the Internet will help you understand everything.

4. Teaser advertising.

Very often used in activities such as traffic arbitrage. The principle of posting ads is slightly different here. The moderator takes the picture and writes an attractive title or description for it. Next comes placement on thematic platforms where people may be interested in the affiliate product or service. Users go to this site, see your offer, click on it and go to the affiliate site. Money is spent according to the principle of contextual advertising: for impressions and for clicks.

The most important task is to select the right site. Otherwise, the spent budget may significantly exceed the income from such an advertising campaign.

5. E-mail newsletters.

Perhaps the most effective and popular way to promote information products. It is rapidly gaining popularity when running other businesses. Nowadays, many online entrepreneurs use email newsletter services to sell various goods or services.

The most important condition for conducting such activities is the availability of an email database of your target audience. By regularly sending emails with sales texts, you are guaranteed to attract targeted traffic to your affiliate site. With a high percentage of letter delivery, you guarantee yourself good earnings and further development.

Regularly study information on our blog, and then you will be aware of all the news related to e-mail marketing.

6. Cheap advertising platforms and axle boxes

Nowadays, advertising on the Internet continues to gain popularity. In order to provide cheap, and most importantly high-quality advertising services, services such as SearfEarner, Ojooo, Globus, etc. are created. The main task of such sites is not just to advertise a product or service, but also to enable each user to earn good money automatically or by performing simple actions.

For example, SearfEarner is an extension for your browser. You go through a quick registration on the company’s official website, download and install it. To make money, you just need to continue doing your business on the Internet and receive passive income from advertisements that regularly appear at the top of the window.

It appears for only 5-60 seconds, does not interfere with computer work and makes it possible to constantly increase your balance. The money you earn can be transferred to your account or included in your advertising budget when working with an affiliate program.

The cost of placing your ad is from 50 to 100 rubles per 1000 impressions. By writing an attractive title and a short, compelling description, you are guaranteed to be able to drive traffic to your affiliate site and make money on complete autopilot!

In our articles about making money on axle boxes and advertising platforms, we will describe this method of promotion in more detail. Here it is important to take into account some of the nuances of working with these services and wisely apply the knowledge gained on our blog.

Or maybe it’s still worth starting your own website?

Friends, creating your first Internet resource will not be difficult. Take a look at the Look Freedom team blog. It was created in 5 hours by people who had never done this before. The only thing that was required of us was to order hosting for 250 rubles. per month, pay 150 rubles for a domain name. and for the “header” (at the very top) the designer is 500 rubles. Total 900 rub.

Want to know how we did it? The tutorial will help anyone. Honestly, 72 hours is a very strong word. Yuri and I watched only 5 lessons dedicated to finalizing the selected template; in total, watching it took no more than 5 hours. And for another 5 hours we slowly applied the acquired knowledge and posted our first posts. Just 10 hours of your free time and you have your own website! Unbelievable but true!

Affiliate programs for earning money allow many users of personal computers and part-time owners of accounts on social networks and their own websites to ensure decent earnings on the Internet. At the same time, there is no need to invest your own funds in this or that project.

The essence of making money on affiliate programs is that a user, having registered on the official website of a project, enters into an agreement to attract other users to this project. The project, in turn, undertakes to pay a certain amount of remuneration for everyone who connects to the project through a partner’s link.

This is the essence of making money on affiliate programs. After all, there are many different projects on the Internet. And the same user has the opportunity to invite a large number of other users to various projects.

The Internet gives the following definition of an affiliate program - this is the interaction between the owner of a product or service and a partner who receives a reward or commission for a transaction that is carried out on his recommendation.

Our magazine’s expert Sofia Rick understood the intricacies of making money from affiliate programs.

Earning money from affiliate programs from scratch

In order to understand what the essence of making money on affiliate programs is, it is enough to consider a simple example from life. For example, a retail outlet, which is located in a specific locality, on a certain street and building, engaged in offline trading, needed to create an online store to sell its products through online trading.

A specialist was hired for this work, who completed the work assigned to him efficiently and on time. After this, the outlet began to recommend this specialist to other sellers for creating online stores.

Thus, the specialist was rewarded in the form of receiving new clients who also needed his services.

And there are many such examples in everyday life. Every day, each of us not only shares with acquaintances, friends, neighbors about the product purchased or service received, but also recommends a specific product or service. At the same time, no one asks anything from others in return for themselves.

If we translate this into the language of an affiliate program, then the seller, dentist, car mechanic, lawyer who was recommended to others in need must give away a part of their profit that they received thanks to your recommendation.

To do this, in real life, you had to enter into a separate agreement with the seller, dentist, car mechanic, lawyer who originally sold you the product or provided the service.

On the Internet, this scheme works slightly differently. After all, in order to advertise a product or service and attract new consumers, you don't have to use it yourself.

So, how to make money on affiliate programs - step-by-step instructions

Working in affiliate programs begins with searching for well-known online stores and popular sites that are interested in increasing their customer base.
The next step is to carefully study the affiliate rules. At the same time, you should note that most affiliate programs prohibit attracting new users through spam mailings.
If the terms of cooperation and the amount of the user’s commission are satisfied, then he agrees with the Rules and, as a result, receives an affiliate link to promote a specific product or service to other Internet users.
Tracking which consumer came through a specific link is done using cookie technology. After making a profit the site shares it with her partner.

According to this scheme, goods, services, various training courses, e-books and everything that can be sold and for which there is demand are sold on the Internet.

Reward amount

The amount of earnings on an affiliate program depends on several factors that must always be taken into account. This:

the cost of the product or service being sold;
type of product, features of the service, rules for their acquisition and use;
the amount of the seller's markup.

As practice shows, the most favorable interest rate commission offers information business. Its size can reach 70, 90, 100 or more percent.

Affiliates selling ordinary goods cannot afford such a reward. And more 10 percent income what they offer, they cannot give. Otherwise, they themselves will be at a loss.

The Internet user chooses which affiliate program to participate in and which not. However, this is one of the real ways to make money on the Internet without investing your own funds.

Participation in affiliate programs will allow you to consistently receive additional income. And if the work is done well, it can develop into the main type of activity.

Existing types of affiliate programs

Any sphere of human activity can be classified according to certain criteria. This approach also applies to affiliate programs. Therefore, their types will be considered depending on the method or type of payment.

Pay per click. The affiliate program pays for unique visitors to visit its website. That is, those who visited the resource using a partner’s referral link. This method allows you to significantly increase traffic to the Internet resource and, in the future, get new customers. However, the payment for the partner is small. Can fluctuate between one and three cents. After all, many who clicked on the link may never visit this site again in the future.
With payment for impressions. Participation in such a program is justified only for partners whose sites are visited by a huge number of unique visitors. For viewing advertisements of an affiliate program posted on the site, the latter pays a commission. Their size ranges from $5 per ten thousand views.
With payment for actions. The payment is an order of magnitude higher than in previous methods. However, it assumes that commissions will be paid only if the visitor who came through the referral link performs certain actions:

be sure to register on the site;
fill out a questionnaire or answer a special list of questions;
download a file with information;
watch the video;
leave your comment;
and so on.

With payment for sales. Statistics show that affiliate programs are willing to pay for attracting such visitors up to forty percent of the purchase amount made by a new buyer who came to the site through the partner’s referral link. At the same time, the partner will receive a commission every time the buyer makes a purchase. Therefore, the partner is primarily interested in attracting as many regular customers as possible to the site.

Real earnings from affiliate programs depend on each Internet user. He makes all decisions independently. However, it should be remembered that the higher the payment, the more effort you need to put into this.

Rules for working with affiliate programs

Analysis of participation in affiliate programs indicates that in order to receive
guaranteed and constant profit, the following rules must be observed:

You should only post information about projects, products or services on thematic platforms. For example, advertising a men's tuxedo is not acceptable on a women's site. Conversely, women's cosmetics should not be advertised on a men's website. Violation of this rule will lead to an outflow of visitors and, accordingly, to a decrease in the number of unique visitors.
Before advertising any product or service, you should:

go through the established registration procedure;
buy a test sample;
order service.

Do not rush to enter into a partnership agreement (a deal with an offer) without thoroughly studying the terms of the program, the reward system, and reviews of other partners. Often, behind the offer of a large reward there are almost impossible conditions of cooperation. This means you may not receive commissions.
To attract unique visitors to your partner resource, you need to use special landing pages landing pages or landing pages. With their help, you can provide a potential buyer with more information about a product and interest him in making a purchase or ordering a service on a specific online resource.
Income directly depends on the number of targeted visitors who were attracted to the contractor’s website, which in the Internet business is usually called an offer. That's why:

the number of links placed should be optimal;
You need to create several landing pages with similar themes.

Working with only one affiliate program is not justified. It is necessary to diversify sources of income. The more there are, the higher the commission amount. After all, the offer can terminate cooperation at any time and then the income will drop to zero. And if there are several of them, the level of income will only decrease.
Work with each offer should be constantly analyzed. This will reveal the effectiveness or lack of necessary traffic. And take timely measures to correct the situation or refuse to cooperate with a specific offer and find a new contractor.
The amount of earnings from affiliate programs directly depends on the base of your own target audience. Therefore, in order to earn more, you need to constantly increase it.

Compliance with these simple rules in the format of cooperation “contractor (offer) - partner” will allow you to have a constant income on the Internet. In addition, you should not refuse to give out gifts for your visitors, thus forcing them to visit the site of the desired offer.

Selecting affiliate programs

Having decided to make money using the Internet, it is impossible to predict in advance which affiliate program will be the most profitable. Therefore, the Internet community has developed a number of criteria by which to select a program. They are as follows:

Uniqueness. It is necessary to pay attention to new and original products offered for sale by the affiliate program. This will not only attract new visitors, but also, given less competition, reach the target audience. Which will ultimately lead to increased profits.
Not available for free. No one wants to buy something that is available for free. This also includes affiliate programs that offer unpopular services. You won’t make money on them, but you will only waste your time.
Give preference to master classes. All kinds of training programs are now popular among Internet users. In addition, the commission for their sale is significantly higher than for other products.
Offering long-term cooperation. These offers include hosting, marketing services, and email newsletter programs. Engaging only in the segment of this niche will allow you to forget about searching for new offers.
Subject. If you already have your own customer base, then you should look for offers for them with products and services that will be of interest to them.
Amount of commission. Income from the affiliate program must cover the costs of the Internet, your website, creating landing pages and other necessary expenses.
Offer potential buyers the best conditions. This is possible when you independently promote a product received from a manufacturer or wholesaler. Sending goods by cash on delivery, because not everyone will agree to transfer money in advance.
Frequency of commission payment. If the offer offers payments once a month, then cooperation has no prospects. According to established practice, settlements with a partner should be made at least once every two weeks.
Availability of promotional materials and various promotional offers. This increases the awareness of the promoted Internet product and allows you to quickly attract the target audience.

These criteria will allow you to make the right choice and additional income will not take long to arrive.

Earning money on affiliate programs without a website

Affiliate programs allow you to receive a stable income for a long time, if at the initial stage active work was carried out to attract potential visitors and create your own client base. As practice shows, for this type of earnings on the Internet it is not necessary to have your own website. After all, the most important principle of earning money is to attract customers to the offer’s website.

Currently, there are five alternative traffic sources that allow you to earn money without your own personal blog or full-fledged website. This:

Social media. All Internet users have their own pages on social networks. Or even several. So they can become the platform through which you can promote your product. And the ability to connect various automatic applications to the page will allow you to automate the maintenance of the page and send responses to incoming messages. Each social network allows the user to create a thematic group in which they can post links to the promoted product and other information necessary for this.
Guest posts. It consists in the fact that when you visit groups, pages or blogs of other users, in the comments or in a special section, text is posted with a link to the affiliate project. However, it should be borne in mind that the more popular someone else's page, blog or group, the stricter the requirements for placing third-party advertising will be.
Posting comments in communities, forums and blogs. You must follow the rules for posting comments. Spam is strictly prohibited. Otherwise the user will be blocked. In the content of the comment, it is recommended to leave your contact information or a link with the following content: “if interested, write.” This approach will intrigue potential clients and not scare them off with unnecessary advertising.
Use of contextual and teaser advertising. Despite the fact that this is the easiest way to promote a product, it is the most expensive. Therefore, before you spend a lot of money, you should evaluate the possibility of returning it through a commission. Besides, you still need to earn something.
Posting free press releases. The text itself must be SEO optimized. That is, according to his keywords, the necessary information should appear in the first lines of search engines.

Using these traffic sources, you can make good money on affiliate programs, even without having your own website.

Today, earnings from affiliate programs are our main source of income. You can make money on affiliate programs even without your own website, you just need to know how to do it correctly

Greetings, dear friends! In touch Alexander Berezhnov - one of the founders of the business magazine HiterBober.ru

Now many people are looking for ways and tools to make money online without investment or special knowledge.

In the article, I told you how we make money on affiliate programs and how you can do it with and without your website.

You will also learn what affiliate programs are, how much you can earn from them, and what is the best place for a beginner to start.

1. What are affiliate programs and how do they make money?

affiliate program- this is a type of commercial interaction between the manufacturer (owner) of a product or service and its partner (seller).

The essence of making money on affiliate programs comes down to the fact that you receive a percentage of sales of goods and services if buyers came to them through your recommendation (affiliate link).

How is the earning process carried out?

You find a contractor (online store, author of a training course, service or person) who sells goods or services and help him sell his product for a percentage.

Let's look at this circuit using a real-life example.

You have a friend Vasya who makes websites, you need a website and you turned to him.

Vasya did his job perfectly and you were pleased with the result.

Now, if your friends need a website, then you will naturally recommend Vasya to them.

There are a lot of such examples.

I’m sure that over the past month you have, in one way or another, recommended something to your friends just like that (as they say, out of the kindness of your heart).

Thus, you have become a freelance sales manager in many companies without compromising your personal time.

Now this is interesting, isn’t it?

Let's now just look at the numbers, and you will immediately understand that earning money from affiliate programs is a great opportunity to earn additional income or even make it your main one.

Let's assume that some time ago you or someone you know made a home renovation using the services of a team of finishers.

You liked their quality, timing and price.

Just agree with these craftsmen that you will recommend them to everyone who needs an apartment or house repair, and they will pay you 10% of the amount of work performed as a reward for the recommendation.

Considering that the cost of an average apartment renovation costs people several hundred thousand rubles, and even by “selling” one renovation per month, you can earn from 10,000 to 100,000 rubles from the “repairmen” affiliate program alone.

And if you recently had built-in furniture installed - a wardrobe, a kitchen, and so on...

In general, you understand the principle.

Now let's look at how to make money on affiliate programs on the Internet

Everything here is exactly the same as in real life.

And first, on the network you need to find someone with whom you will “partner”.

The opportunity to make money on your affiliate program is provided by online stores (for example, Ozon.ru), hosting companies, information businessmen (people who sell information on the Internet in the form of training courses), various automated services (for example, the mailing service smartresponder.ru or the product service apishops.ru affiliate programs)

This is where newbies have a question.

How does your contractor (the one who provides you with the affiliate program) know that the customer who made the purchase came from you (via your link)?

This is not difficult, since when you use the Internet on your computer, all the latest data is recorded in special “cookie” files.

This is how the computer remembers the entire route of the buyer of a product or service who came on your recommendation.

If a person who came through your affiliate link buys something from your contractor, then you receive the percentage specified in the affiliate program in the form of a commission for such a recommendation.

It’s interesting that the commission amount for an affiliate program can reach up to 100% ! That is, the contractor gives you all the money received, for example, in exchange for contacting a potential client.

This is especially common in the information business, where the information product has no cost. That is why affiliate commissions here often reach 70% , 80% , 90% and more.

Typically, partners' remuneration ranges from 10% before 70% depending on the type of product or service, as well as its price.

Unlike information products, where your commission is often higher 50% , in product affiliate programs this value usually does not exceed 30-40% .

One of the powerful services that provides you with the opportunity to earn money from product affiliate programs is apishops (apishops.ru).

Here you will find a bunch of different products (mostly exclusive) that you can sell by simply creating an advertising campaign, and all other actions - purchasing the product and promotional materials for it, communicating with customers and delivery will be taken over by the service.

For the sake of experiment, I sold Chinese watches here, and in principle I managed to make good money. Try it if you're interested.

There are also so-called CPA affiliate programs.

In them, you are charged for actions, for example, for a confirmed user application for a loan or registration in an online game.

CPA affiliate programs are now gaining popularity. This is especially true for banking products, such as loans.

Surely you have heard about such a famous bank as Tinkov.

He also has his own CPA affiliate program " Tinokoff».

Here are its conditions for rewarding partners:

Payment for a credit card application – 155 rubles
Payment for an activated credit card - 160 rubles
Payment for application for deposit - 952.52 rubles

2. How much can you earn from affiliate programs?

This question worries many people, especially those who are just starting to look for ways to make money online.

Let me answer it right away. Personally, our result with Vitaly: more than 50,000 rubles per month.

Here is a screenshot of earnings for April 2015:

As you can see, the current month of May has not yet ended (it is now the 27th) and even greater income is expected in it.

In a word, everyone earns differently.

For some, the earnings from affiliate programs are barely enough to buy ice cream, while others are scraping by, raising hundreds of thousands of rubles a month.

So our result is quite average.

By the way, if you want to know more about that, read our article.

Let me now tell you what income depends on or what you need to do to earn money in this way not only for bread, but also for butter and caviar.

So, the factors influencing the amount of income from affiliate programs:

Factor 1. Quality (interest) of the offer

The product or service of which you have become a partner must be in demand and of interest to consumers. They must have adequate price, quality and characteristics that can withstand competition in the market in comparison with similar products.

For example, if you sell an IPhone through the affiliate program of the online store “N”, and its price is higher compared to other online stores, then the chance of purchasing it will be less, and accordingly, your potential earnings will be small.

Factor 2. Number of offers

Factor 3. Quantity and quality of traffic coming to the offer

Let's assume that every hundredth visitor who follows your link will order a product or service.

Then it turns out that you need to attract at least 100 people for one click on the link.

Read more about where to get potential buyers from and how to advertise your affiliate link in the next section of the article.

Factor 4. Relevance (compliance) of the proposal to its location

These could be specialized forums, articles on your blog on the topic, groups on social networks with a target audience.

Factor 5. Commission amount

Pay attention to the commission amount for your affiliate program. The higher they are in percentage terms and in pure monetary terms, the better.

In trade, this is called the average check, that is, it is the average income per customer.

At the same time, do not forget about all the other factors, because if they are not met, then you will not receive a commission at all.

You can find it in different ways, but in this article we will look at the entire step-by-step algorithm from finding an affiliate program to withdrawing money earned from Glopart.

First, go to the website Glopart.ru and register.

The registration procedure is intuitive and should not raise any questions.

Now we read the description of the product and choose the one we like best.

At the same time, we pay attention to the cost of the goods and the amount of commission deductions.

In order to make sure that the offer (product) you want to advertise is adequate, go to the website selling the product and study it carefully.

To assess the adequacy (quality) of the offer, be guided by the following criterion - would you buy this product yourself? Yes/No and why?

Only then make the final decision whether you will promote it.

To add this product to your affiliate list, click the “become an affiliate” button:

After clicking on this button, a window will appear in which you will see your affiliate links.

Step 2. Get an affiliate link

You can choose any of two links:

Link to the product page (selling page);
Link to payment page.

Step 3. Advertise the link

So, you have chosen an interesting product, received a link and it’s time to advertise (promote) it so that sales come through it and you start earning money.

on thematic forums;
on your own or someone else’s website/blog (in an article);
in groups and public pages on VKontakte and Odnoklassniki;
using contextual and abstract advertising set up through your affiliate link to the course author’s website;
creating a separate website (landing page) and advertising this course there, driving traffic to it with the help of advertising.

Eyeliner- this is a piece of text preceding an affiliate link and motivating a person to follow it. The eyeliner should be brief, contain intrigue and benefit for the user.

This will increase the number of clicks on your affiliate link.

Step 4. Making a profit

If a potential client purchases a product through your link, you will receive a commission, the amount of which was indicated as “affiliate royalties.”

After a certain period, for example a week, you will see how many products and which ones you sold.

This way you can focus on them and further increase your income by selling more profitable products and getting rid of unprofitable ones.

Step 5. Withdraw your earned money

In the Glopart service, the money you earn can be withdrawn both manually and automatically.

In the second case, the funds will be transferred to your Webmoney wallet, and then you can dispose of the money you earn at your own discretion.

For example, pay for goods or services via the Internet, withdraw your money to a bank card (for example, to a Sberbank card) and cash it out at an ATM. That's what we do.

4. Pros and cons of making money on affiliate programs

Dear reader, so that you have a complete picture of how to make money from affiliate programs, I decided to highlight the main advantages and disadvantages of this method of making money on the Internet.

pros “+” earnings from affiliate programs

Availability. Almost any person with average computer skills can make money this way and get their first money in the very near future (sometimes within a few minutes of starting to advertise an affiliate link);
High incomes. Compared to other ways to earn money, affiliate programs provide the opportunity to make really good profits in the first month (from $100 to $1000 or more);
Possibility to start without investment (from scratch). Since you can advertise your affiliate link on forums, Vkontakte, Odnoklassniki and other social networks, it will not cost you anything except your personal time. This is your personal business, which you can really open without any investment and start earning decent amounts from scratch.

In general, I wrote about how to open a business from scratch in.

Minuses “-” earnings from affiliate programs

Income instability. In some months, with the same efforts, you can earn $500, but in some months, affiliate programs will not bring you even $100. This depends on the seasonality of the topic of the product being offered and its relevance at a given time.
Risk of losing time and money (in case of paid advertising of the link). You perform some actions in order to earn money. But the truth is that they may not bring the desired results.

If you lose time and gain experience, it's not a big deal. Although, it will be frustrating if you invest a significant budget in advertising your affiliate links and they don’t work.

To minimize financial risks, I once again advise you to familiarize yourself with the rules for choosing an affiliate program (the first paragraph of the article), which I called factors influencing the amount of income from affiliate programs.

5. Answers to questions about making money on affiliate programs

1. How much can you earn from affiliate programs?

You can make money from this from 1 dollar (no problem) to 5000$(when building a earning system, for example, by having your own highly visited website).

2. How does the computer know that a sale was made through my affiliate link?

The browser (the program through which you access the Internet) stores the history of the user's recent actions on the Internet in special files.

Therefore, the system will always accurately determine where the user came from and if he came through your link and made a purchase, then you will receive your money.

3. Can I not be paid a commission if the sale actually went through me?

Yes, this is possible if the sale was made directly through your link (not through a payment acceptance service). Then, theoretically, you can be “thrown” into commissions, taking 100% of the money received for yourself.

4. Who is a referral?

Referral- this is a user who registered using your affiliate link. In other words, in your case, this is a second-level partner.
Attracting referrals is profitable, because if you sell through his link, you also receive affiliate commissions, but they are much lower than yours (first-level commissions).

5. How to make money on affiliate programs with your website?

If you have a well-promoted website with high traffic (several thousand people per day), then you can safely make money on it by monetizing your articles with affiliate programs.

For example, on the website HeatherBober.ru the income from affiliate programs is from 500 rubles per day and higher.

Another good way to earn passive income on your website with good traffic is the Yandex affiliate program.

You can submit your site to this network, and if it is accepted there, then advertisements will begin to appear on your site, and you will receive money for each user click on such an advertisement.

6. Is it possible to make money on affiliate programs without a website?

Can. To do this, you can use forums that are thematic to your affiliate, groups and public pages on VKontakte and Odnoklassniki, and third-party sites that are similar in topic to your affiliate.

The only point is that all these methods will be paid for you if you want to make money without a website.

After all, the site is a source of free traffic (if it has been operating for a long time and has already been promoted using SEO articles), and if it is absent, you will not have visitors whom you can direct to your link.

But there is one trick that I personally tried and earned 10,000 rubles.

I earned this money by posting a free information product of one famous Internet entrepreneur on a torrent.

You could say that in a sense I built on affiliate programs with torrenting. This is how you can still earn money without investing in affiliate programs.

7. What is an affiliate program aggregator?

Affiliate program aggregator is a site where many affiliate programs on different topics are collected. We can say that this is a directory of affiliate programs on the Internet.

This is where it is most convenient to find them.

For example, the service for accepting instant payments Glopart.ru, which was discussed in the article, is an aggregate of affiliate programs, as it has a corresponding catalog of products.

Here are the most popular aggregators:

admitad.com
apishops.ru
gdeslon.ru
afrek.ru

In this article I want to show you how to properly organize earnings on the Internet through affiliate programs. And I’ll give you my “secret” list of 63 best affiliate programs. So that you can immediately apply your new knowledge and earn your first money today.

And to begin with, let me show you with my own example whether it is really possible to earn income on the Internet from affiliate programs.

How much can you actually earn from affiliate programs?

I’ll tell you straight as it is - affiliate programs are not the most profitable way to make money on the Internet. In order to receive some kind of sane income (say 30-50 thousand rubles per month), you need to try very hard.

On the other hand, this is one of the easiest ways to earn money. You don’t have to make your own products or provide any services. All you need to be able to do is drive traffic to your partners’ landing pages.

For example, I never set myself the goal of making money from affiliate programs. However, there are some affiliate links scattered throughout this site where you are now. I arranged them without any system and very sloppily. But nevertheless, they bring me some additional income.

I even recorded a video for you in which I log into my affiliate account and show how much money “drips” to me per month.

Video - my earnings on the Internet through affiliate programs

Approximate figures for earnings on affiliate programs look like this. 80% of people earn almost nothing at all (except for one-time random income of 50-100 rubles). Approximately 15% earn around 2-5 thousand rubles per month. And only 5% of all people employed in the affiliate business have monthly earnings of several tens of thousands of rubles.

And there are, of course, a few that make hundreds of thousands a month - for example, on CPA affiliate programs (I will give links to them below in the article).

In any case, you shouldn’t count on huge earnings from the very beginning. First, you need to try your hand and test several affiliate programs from the list that I give below. And then you will decide whether you should engage in this type of Internet business or whether it is better to choose.

And it’s best to test affiliate programs (and yourself) without making large investments. Otherwise, the money may run out much earlier than you get the result. And this is how I would do it if I decided today to start making money from affiliate programs from scratch.

A recipe for making money on affiliate programs without a website and almost without investments

I already wrote about this in an article (will open in a new tab). In my opinion, this is the best way to promote affiliate programs without a website and practically for free.

You see, the thing is, the product that you are advertising is the same product as everyone else. And it is sold according to exactly the same laws as all other products. And the main law of sales is this: buy from someone they trust.

That is, if you take a product and start offering it to your acquaintances and friends, they will buy it because they trust you (or they will not buy it because they don’t trust you). The entire network business is built on this.

But many budding Internet entrepreneurs think that they can take a product and simply offer it to everyone on the Internet. And then they wonder why they don’t have sales. Why should someone give their money just because you recommend it?

Accordingly, the largest incomes always come from those people who have a wide audience that trusts them. These are the owners of well-promoted websites or large subscription databases (and often these are the same people).

And here you have two options if you want to earn a lot from affiliate programs. The first option is to create a well-promoted resource yourself and through it gather around you a large number of people who trust you. But it's a long journey, and you won't achieve it overnight.

The second option is to use some of the influence and authority of those who already have it. And this is exactly what can be done literally in one evening.

How to use someone else's authority to advertise an affiliate program

Almost all owners of large and well-promoted sites make money from advertising. They display advertising blocks for Yandex Direct and Google Adsense. But the income from such advertising is always very low. Therefore, they also attract direct advertisers in every possible way.

And you, too, can easily advertise your affiliate product on such a site. Moreover, such advertising costs surprisingly little. The normal rate is 50-100 rubles. per day of display of your ad (and this is also on sites with high traffic of 10 - 20 thousand unique visitors per day).

That is, your action plan is something like this:

Choose a partner program to your liking from the list below;
Find a well-promoted website on the topic of your affiliate product;
You hang your banner on this site for 50 rubles.

Another tip is to try to “hang yourself” on the day when the blog author publishes a new article. It will attract the maximum number of our most valuable audience—regular readers of this site. They are the ones who trust the site author (and his “recommendations”) the most. And they will be the first to notice changes on their favorite website - your new banner.

In addition, authors often send out a newsletter to their database notifying them that a new article has appeared on the site. And this attracts a huge amount of “fiery” traffic - the author’s subscribers. Accordingly, for your 50 rubles you will receive maximum attention.

Why don't site owners do this themselves?

Recently, one reader asked me a very correct question - why don’t the owners of such sites themselves advertise profitable affiliate programs? Why do they need our measly 50 rubles, although they can earn thousands?

The answer here is very simple. Most owners of promoted sites do not understand affiliate programs at all. Yes, they are too lazy to understand them - who sells how, who pays how much, whether commissions are paid in good faith, and so on and so forth.

It’s much easier for them to immediately take money from you for advertising, and then at least the grass won’t grow. This is what we use.

And now, in fact, my “secret” list of the 63 best affiliate programs for making money on the Internet, which I once compiled for myself. In fact, there are even more affiliate programs here. Because in some points there are several links.

Vasily Blinov is in touch. In this article I will tell you everything about affiliate programs, and also give my list of affiliate programs on which I already earn from 20 thousand rubles per month.

On my blog you can find a lot of useful material on various affiliate programs, how to work with them and earn money. You can also take part in.

Now I can say with confidence that affiliate programs are one of the best ways to monetize your projects on the Internet and simply earn money without much investment. It is enough to properly maintain accounts on your social networks and you can already earn money by recommending affiliate products.

What is an affiliate program?

Affiliate program (abbreviated as “affiliate”) is a form of cooperation between you and the creators of a product or service. That is, you become an intermediary between the seller and the buyer, receiving a certain commission from each product ordered through you.

This form of cooperation was created in order to make it easier for the creators of the product to distribute it. You, as a partner, get the opportunity to sell their finished products for free without investing in production. You just take ready-made products, find buyers, attract them using special affiliate links and get good money for it in the form of a percentage of sales.

Commissions are usually paid to various Internet wallets, such as: Yandex Money, Web Money, etc. With some projects, it is possible to conclude an agreement on the payment of commissions directly to a bank account (bank card).

How affiliate programs work

After registering in the affiliate program, you will receive affiliate links that you will need to use to work. Your affiliate identifier is embedded in the links, with the help of which the person who follows the link is assigned to you using cookies.

A cookie is a small piece of data sent by a web server and stored in the browser on a user's computer. That is, the browser remembers when you click on a link to a site with your ID. If a person makes a purchase within a certain time after clicking on the link, you will receive a commission.

Types of affiliate programs

There are 2 types of affiliate programs by level - single-level and multi-level. Single-level- this is when you receive a commission only from personal sales. They brought a client and received money. A multi-level- this is when, in addition to personal sales, you receive commissions from the sales of partners you attract.

That is, in multi-level affiliate programs you can not only sell a product, but also attract partners like you through your links and make a profit from their product sales. This type of affiliate program is reminiscent of an MLM structure, when you make money by building a network of your partners.

I recommend that you carefully consider the choice of affiliate products; many companies have begun to base their earnings only on their partners. I use one-level and two-level affiliate programs. There are several exceptions, where a good and high-quality product uses a 4-level affiliate program.

I can also divide affiliate products into 2 types: a product with a one-time payment and a product with a subscription fee. That is, in the first case, you receive affiliate commissions only once from an attracted client and his purchase of a product, and in the second case, from an attracted client you can receive commissions for as long as he uses it and pays a monthly subscription fee for the product or service.

List of the best affiliate programs of 2018
