    There are a lot of affiliate marketing tips in the Internet today and there are some of them which are really good. If you are just starting out doing affiliate marketing, you would want to implement everything at the same time. 

    Now, here’s the difference of what you can do, and what you will do.

    Allow me to ask you something. You are interested in affiliate marketing because:

    • You are a student and need the extra cash
    • You have a day job and earning side income is always great
    • You trying to build streams of residual income on the side

    Either way, I get it. I was and still in the same shoes.

    I have a day job and affiliate marketing allows me to earn extra income monthly, without much hard work and more importantly, more money to put food on the table.

    You are confused with affiliate marketing​.

    Confused About Affiliate Marketing

    With so much information about affiliate marketing tips in the market space, you are desperate to know what works and more importantly, what doesn’t — right?

    I bet it not because I guess so, it is because I know so!

    Now, what if I tell you that there is one simple affiliate marketing tip you can follow, that will increases your affiliate sales multiple folds?

    The answer is this … (carry on reading).

    ARTICLE LAYOUT.

    No, I’m not talking about blog layout — I’m talking about the article layout. This means the way you make your article portray the information to the public.

    Here’s an important tip: No one loves wall of text.

    Typically, most blog layouts look like this.

    Typical Blog Layout

    If I could describe this in just one word, it would be B.O.R.I.N.G.

    You see, most affiliate marketers opt for the layout above and there is no wrong to it. What makes your conversion is the CONTENT part.

    We spend so much time trying to create the best ads and banners on the sidebar that we totally forget that the conversion power lies within the content.

    And of course, this leads to another question.

    How to use content and increase affiliate sales?

    The answer is simple. Make it interactive.

    According to the BusinessDictonary.com, the word “interactive” can be inteprated as “Live presentation in which the audience can participate.”

    How do you make your blog post interactive without voice?

    Hah! Now, you are talking.

    The trick here is simple. Using visual editor and turn wall of text into something fun.

    Here’s my meaning of fun:

    1. Countdown timer

    2. Progress Bar

    3. Icons (retina display)

    4. Content Reveal

    Important takeaways

    How Do Affiliate Marketing Programs Work?

    Have you ever wondered how do affiliate marketing programs work? I bet you do.

    If you want to read more about affiliate marketing programs, here’s a good article to start with: What is an affiliate marketing program?

    How does affiliate marketing programs work?

    Let’s put it in a very simple explanation. Brands engage in affiliate marketing simply because they can:

    • Reduce manpower
    • Increase sales
    • Have a wider range of ‘influencers’

    Now let’s take an example of buying a GoPro (these are purely assumptions but they are important for you to understand the concept).

    • Selling price of one GoPro: USD $100
    • Commission for affiliate marketers (like you) upon successful sale: USD 15
    • Nett profit for the brand: USD 85 (100 minus 15)
    • Nett profit for the affiliate marketer: USD 15

    Now, take a moment to think about this. From the standpoint of the brand, a fee of USD 15 is relatively small to pay a seller simply because there is no fixed cost. The brand does not need to pay the influencer monthly just like a full-time salesperson. Instead, they are only required to pay once a sale is completed.

    How about the affiliate marketer point of view? It is also a win-win situation because he or she would probably just need to spend a few minutes a day (or in a week) and have a good chance of closing a sale.

    You might think that USD 15 is a relatively small profit for the marketer but do your math with the assumption that the marketer is able to sell 100 pieces of GoPro in a month. Not only that the affiliate marketer is able to make USD 1,500 easily, the company may even increase his commission rate!
