Not surprisingly, most of these websites did not use the products they were advertising on their websites.
Related affiliate marketing is not a bad idea. Placing an ad related to your website is a great strategy to earn extra cash. Because you have a website and some form of authority on the inter-webs, people will trust you.
3. Involved Affiliate Marketing
This is where you recommend people to use a product or service that you’ve already tested.
You don’t advertise the product on a banner ad, on the sidebar or within your content on your website; you simply tell people your experience with the product or service and then let them decide whether they want it or not.
It’s your involvement with the product that convinces people to consider purchasing it.
If you’ve garnered a huge following and have built a great reputation among your followers, involved affiliate marketing is the best way to go because:
1. Your readers have some proof about what they are about to buy actually works.
2. They can come to you when they need help.
3. They can blame you if it doesn’t work for them.
