AMAZON AFFILIATE MARKETING in 2020 - How To Affiliate AMAZON

AMAZON AFFILIATE MARKETING

 I will be sharing with you a lot of secrets that I’ve learned of doing affiliate marketing for over seven years. Well, who am I to even teach you affiliate marketing, right? Well I have been doing affiliate marketing for over seven years now, and I have a portfolio of over 11+ websites, apart from that I also do pay to consult,  And now comes the big question, what is affiliate marketing? In affiliate marketing, three parties areinvolved. There’s a merchant or an affiliate network,let’s consider it to be Amazon. Then there will be you, as an affiliate. Where you will be promoting the products ofthe merchant through a special affiliate link

 So when someone purchases a product through your affiliate link, you get a commission, that is, you make money. Now in my affiliate marketing playlist, I'll show you step-by-step on how to sign up to the affiliate network, how to generate your links, how to promote these links to thousands of people for free and then make money from your links. Almost all popular companies use affiliate marketing to drive customers.

AFFILIATE SITES:

 Be it Amazon, Flipkart, Ola, Uber, Swiggy, FoodPanda, Zomato- almost all popular companies are doing it. But the important question is, how affiliate marketing will help you. Well, the biggest benefit is definitely online earning on autopilot. So now let’s talk about who can learn affiliate marketing. You don’t need any special qualifications, you don’t need any technical background. All you need is one laptop, or a computer,and an internet connection.

This is all you need. The best part about affiliate marketing isthat you are making money from the comfort of your home. There is no age limit, no massive course fee,only your willingness to learn, and your willingness to earn money online. I’m friends with people who are making $100,000per month to $300,000 per month from affiliate marketing. So now let’s talk about what is the bestway to learn affiliate marketing. 

Well, when I started there was no one to guide me. No one to tell me the best tips, tricks, tools or strategies that actually work. Well lucky for you, I’ll be teaching you and guiding you in every step. You need a guide, a person who has made the mistakes so that you don’t repeat those mistakes. So now let’s talk about which affiliate network to focus on. 

Affiliate Networks:

There are thousands of affiliate networks in the market. I myself use 50+ affiliate networks to make money for my affiliate websites. So which one should you choose? While there are more complicated ones like Clickbank and Commission Junction, where you need the knowledge of advanced digital marketing in order to make money. This is because the competition is just wayto high. For beginners, who are just starting out,the one I recommend is Amazon Associate. It’s easy to run and promote

 Now I’llbe showing you why you should be focusing only on Amazon.in. Amazon is the world’s biggest e-commerce website. Amazon.com is driving more than 2.5B visitors per month. Amazon India or Amazon.in is driving morethan 360M people per month. The best part is that every experienced affiliate marketer is only targeting Amazon.com in the US market. But there’s usually zero competition inAmazon India. 

So making money from an Indian Amazon associate account is a hundred times easier than promoting in Amazon.com on the US market. Apart from this, there is many other reasons why you should join the Amazon affiliate network. Once you promote your Amazon affiliate link the cookie period is for 24 hours. So whatever the customer ends up purchasingin the next 24 hours, you will be getting the commission for that. The second good point is that you will be getting paid the affiliate commission for the entire cart. So let’s say you refer someone to buy at-shirt. But the person ends up buying a jeans, a capand the t-shirt as well.

Affiliate Commission:

 You will be getting the affiliate commission for the entire cart value and not just the product that you recommend. This is the best part of the Amazon affiliate link. And since Amazon has so much data and optimization,majority of the people end up buying so many other products and not just the product you recommend. You can see in the image on the screen that the majority of the products that I sold are not the products that I was promoting but theother products that people purchased when I referred them  

I still got the commission. The third benefit is the Amazon brand. Amazon is now one of the biggest e-commerce websites in India. They spend millions in advertising and noweveryone knows about Amazon. So there’s a trust from the consumers fromAmazon, so the conversion rate of people buying from Amazon is very high. This also helps in getting more sales and hence, making more affiliate commissions. I am getting a massive 3.5% conversion rate. 

So every hundred people I refer to Amazon,almost 3 – 4 people end up buying the products. So that’s just amazing. So now let’s talk about how can you make money from affiliate marketing. The easy answer is to create a website and scale it. I’ll show you a step-by-step in how to create an Amazon affiliate website like a pro.

You don’t even have to work on your website when your article ranks on Google search results. It’s free traffic, month on month. Unlike other platforms that come and go, Google is not going anywhere. So you don’t have to worry that Google willgo out of fashion in a few months. People will keep on searching on Google. There are many others ways apart from affiliate links that you can make money from your affiliate website. 

   

You get sponsorship opportunities, branches will start emailing you… you’ll also be making money from sponsored links, sponsored reviews. Like I am charging Rupees, Rs10,000 – Rs20,000for one sponsored review. And also, in the end, let’s say you decide you don’t like the Amazon affiliate website, and you want to sell it. Then the website sells for 30x its monthlyrevenue. So let’s say you’re making Rs10,000 from your website on a monthly basis you can sell it for Rs300,000. 

Now I know that many of you will ask me in the comment section the other ways of doing affiliate marketing. Like opening a YouTube channel or doing it through Instagram. So let’s take each option one-by-one and share its pros and cons. So let’s start by opening a YouTube channel. Yes, you can open a YouTube channel in any niche. Like many other YouTubers are doing, and theyare also making good affiliate revenue. You can create a fashion-related channel and promote fashion-related products. 

You can also create a technology-based YouTubechannel and promote just like Technical Guruji is doing, but the main point to stress is that YouTube is getting competitive. Already for all the popular categories, be it fashion, be it gardening, be it technology, already YouTubers are dominating that niche. It was easier a couple of years back whenthe competition was low, and also because of the Reliance Jio wave. Now already the majority of the profitable niche has a channel dominating.

 Now, I’m not saying that you won’t be able to do it. Yes, you can open a YouTube channel and youwill be able to scale it. But it is extremely difficult. It will be difficult to scale, you’ll have to be patient. You also have to show your face and you'll also have to invest in expensive equipment. I will be creating a YouTube marketing course very soon on this channel so make sure you subscribe to get notified about that... But then again YouTube is more competitive compared to the Amazon alternative that I’m telling you. Now, let’s talk about promoting affiliate links through Instagram. 

One thing that I should mention is that everysocial media platform comes and goes. So Instagram might not be able to survive in a couple of years. Also getting followers in 2019 is extremely difficult compared to a couple of years back. Every social media platform is going with the pay-to-play mode. Like the case of Facebook, earlier the organic reach was very high. So let’s say you have 10,000 page likes,if you post a new post, you’ll be able to reach that 10,000 people. But now Facebook wants you to pay money inorder to reach the people who even like your page.

 Now the competition on Instagram is also growing because the people know that there’s money to be made. And also Instagram wants you to pay moneyto get those followers. So the organic growth is down. And the worst part about Instagram is thatthere is only one place where you can add the affiliate link that is the bio. So the number of links of the affiliate links will be far less and hence the oral commission that you make in a month will be much lower. And this is why I don’t recommend Instagram as the only source of promoting your affiliate links. 

The same goes for a Facebook page or a group. The organic reach is dead, so you wont be able to promote your affiliate links in a profitable manner. So I don’t recommend either going into Instagram or YouTube or a Facebook page or a group… rather the smart strategy is to go into alow competition area and dominate it before it gets too competitive. Also, once your affiliate sites start getting traffic, you can move to these verticals either YouTube channel or Instagram account. Trust me I’ve been doing this for almost7 years, I have tried and tested everything. 

The best strategy is to first start a website,scale it, and then move to the various verticals of YouTube and Instagram. This has given me the best results. So what is the process of making money fromaffiliate marketing through a website. Everything is explained in detail in our affiliatemarketing course playlist. But right now, I’ll be giving you a general overview of how all these works. The process will be something like this. The first step is to do niche research.

I’ll share with you the exact strategy thatI use to find low competition keywords that make you money not in years, but in months. The fourth step is to write articles. Either you can write it yourself, but I’llalso tell you how you can outsource it to someone else. I have spent thousands of dollars in knowingthe best article structure.

 How many words your article should have? What should be the button color? I have tested everything. And I’ll be sharing the perfect articletemplate with you in one of the lessons. The next step will be signing up to the AmazonAssociate account. How to sign up? How to get approved? And how to not get banned. The next lesson will cover the most important detail. How to get your article on rank number one on Google search results. 

So let’s say your website is about guitarand you write an article like “best guitars in India”. So I’ll share with you all the strategies that I use to rank number one for my target keyword. And the last step is for you to send me thank you email for introducing you to affiliate marketing. I would love to see some success stories ifI like your site, I might even collaborate with you for other projects. So now let’s talk about money. How much many can you make? Now this depends entirely on you. How much time you are willing to invest on your website. 

The more time you invest, the more money youwill be making. If you follow our complete playlist then Ican tell you for sure that you will be making money in few months. In the beginning, it might look a bit complicatedbecause you are new at this. But given a few days of implementing, youwill become a pro. Once you scale the website, then you already know all the secrets. Then you can create many more websites, builda team, and scale even further. Like I started as a one-man-army, but todayI have 9 full time people working on my affiliate websites. 

You are planting a tree. Once it’s grown up, all you have to do is spend a few hours on your website and it will keep giving you fruits for many years to come. Now let’s talk about common affiliate marketing mistakes. New affiliate marketers make these following common mistakes. Even I made them when I got started. The first mistake is not showing patience. You won’t start making money on day one. Rather, slowly and steadily you will be scaling. The second mistake is not implementing. Majority of you will just be watching thelessons, but very few of you will be actually implementing. But the people who implement, will be gettingthe best results. 

So make sure you don’t just watch the lessons,but also implement everything I tell you. And not just implementing, you’ll be getting a lot of questions in your mind. So don’t just implement, you can ask yourquestions in the Facebook group or you can also ask them in our YouTube live sessions. And I’ll try my best to answer all of you guys. The third mistake is getting greedy. Now few of you might watch our complete free affiliate marketing course playlist and then start implementing everything on multiplewebsites. 

If you’re a beginner or just starting out,even if you are an experienced affiliate, I would recommend you to open only one single website, and try to focus entirely on that. Your goal should first be able to create awebsite and scale it. Learn all the advance strategies, then build a team, and then open multiple websites. You don’t have to work hard, you have towork smartly. I have already made the mistakes, so you don’thave to make the same mistakes again. Rather follow the working strategies that actually work.
