One of the main questions after creating a site, how can I make money on it? If you don’t have your own product yet, or if you want to have additional advertising income, then affiliate programs will be appropriate here. But what should a webmaster affiliate program be like? Where to look for partners and how to choose the right strategies in order to get your profit? Let's get into the details!
The main rule to remember is to take into account the topic of the article where the ad will be shown, or the overall topic of the site, in order to select thematic affiliate programs.
For example, if a user visits a site about cooking tips and sees an advertisement for the sale of car parts, he will at least not pay attention to it, and for you it will be almost no income. In the worst case, the user may find the ad inappropriate and leave the site altogether.
What will happen if there is an advertisement for an English language school on your resource dedicated to learning languages? Of course, this will be a topic that is in tune with the interests of your audience, and your chances of viewing ads will increase dramatically, and, consequently, income from the affiliate program, too.
I divide affiliate programs into 3 types:
- Shops, goods, CPA networks
- Services and Services
- Training and infobusiness
Descriptions and examples of affiliate programs
Affiliate of stores or goods
AliExpress is the most popular online store. There are a huge number of goods, which means that the field of activity is almost limitless! For example, on your cooking website, you can recommend appliances and utensils. At the end of an article about a delicious kebab recipe, advertise a portable barbecue grill.
How much does AliExpress pay?
If you connect to the AliExpress affiliate program, the amount of your reward will be 8.5% of the amount of the paid order. You can connect to ePN website
ePN is an official AliExpress agent. This site has all the tools to work with AliExpress. Also, you yourself can return a percentage of the purchase if you buy on Aliexpress. To do this, you need to register for ePN Cashback.
How does the affiliate work?
According to the information from the cookies, the number of your referrals will turn into your income. Even if a person, having followed your link, did not place an order, but then returned, after a few days or weeks, he is still considered your referral, and paying for his purchase in this online store will bring you profit.
What is CPA? CPA is a pay-per-action affiliate program. It could be:
- Payment for goods
- Approval of the application (for example, in an online bank)
- Registration on the site or game
- And maybe something else))
What is a CPA network? This is an intermediary site with a catalog of affiliate programs that unites the Seller, who has the product, and you, the Webmaster, who brings traffic and leads.
Popular CPA networks
KMA.biz is well known to many webmasters. It is great for sites with a women's theme, there are a lot of different products.
Admitad.com is a larger network. There are already not only physical goods here, but also virtual ones, which means that Admitad is suitable for more different site topics.
- Online shopping
- Online Games
- Mobile offers
- Internet services
- Financial offers
- Tourism, travel
- For adults
Of course, if the subject matter allows, you can also advertise large stores, for example, Mvideo (the income from each order will be up to 4%), Wildberries (here the earnings depend on the product category, but you can get up to 10% of its value from a paid order), and others. For example, in a seasonal review of fashion trends, you can use advertising for new products from popular brands that are traded on the Bonprix or Lamoda sites.
Affiliate programs of services and services
Now on the Internet there are sooo many services and services that can be advertised. And smart service owners definitely make an affiliate program and pay up to 90% of their earnings.
Why give away so much, you ask? The answer is simple, most electronic goods do not have a cost price (manufacturing costs), so it’s not a pity to give so much for an attracted client.
Service examples
Hosting
I'm promoting Timeweb, and this recommendation is directly related to the topic of my site. Earnings on it will be from 20% to 40%, depending on which hosting the person chooses. If your topic is not related to IT, then you can simply indicate “The site is powered by Timeweb hosting” in the footer of the site and that’s it. Who needs it, he will follow the link.
Chat or callback widget
Now it is very convenient to put such a widget on the site, the conversion to the application rises by at least 10%.
Service jivosite. Every time your referral pays for a license, you get from 25% to 35% of the payment.
Email service
MailerLite.com. If you plan to offer your visitors a mailing list, use this idea and advertise the convenient and modern mailing service MailerLite.
Services for travel websites
The most popular affiliate program is the purchase of air tickets and hotel reservations. Place a travel agency banner or a hotel search form in an article or sidebar, and your visitors will appreciate it, and referrals will express their gratitude in monetary terms.
A popular network for monetizing travel traffic is a website travelpayouts.com.
It brings together popular sites:
- Aviasales
- Booking.com
- Hotellook
- Airbnb
- rentalcars.com
For example, you can make aviasales.ru module and install it to independently search for cheap air tickets directly on your site, and you can earn from 2.2% of the ticket price on ticket sales. Consider seasonality when choosing such a program, the relevance of the direction for your target audience, the proximity of holidays and vacation periods.
Templates, graphics, video, audio
For example site market.envato.com which includes the following sections:
- Themeforest.net - website templates
- Codecanyon.net - plugins and codes
- Videohive.net - video and video effects
- Audiojungle.net - music and audio
- Graphicriver.net — backgrounds, logos, icons
- Photodune.net - photos
- 3docean.net - 3D elements
You can start and advertise a separate blog for each)) I often recommend templates for wordpress from the site Themeforest.net
Everywhere the affiliate percentage is different, but as an example, from the sale of one template through my link, I get 13 dollars = 780 rubles approximately.
Training and infobusiness
Any person who aspires to something in any field is looking for information and collects it from various sources. In today's society, recommendations mean even more than advertising. After all, in fact, a recommendation is an advertisement, but, as they say, with a soul. That is, already from someone whom a person trusts, he learns something good about a product or subject that interests him. Advertise training or courses and get thanks and cash rewards.
English language training partner
puzzle-english.com— I learn English on this site and I recommend it to everyone.
skyeng.ru- and here is an English language school, where you have a mentor and you personally study 1-on-1 with him via Skype.
Affiliate programs of professions (freelancing and not only)
There are many sites that teach various professions, such as programming, photography, design, advertising, etc.
As an example site Geekbrains— training portal for programmers. Recommend courses and earn 1000 rubles. from each course sale.
Courses (infobusiness)
I often recommend Evgeny Popov's courses. If you came to my site in search of answers to your questions, and they relate to the creation, promotion of the site, making money on the site - you also need to come here. Come in handy. The achievements of this person will in many ways tell you the right paths, help you become a professional in this field, because among his courses (paid and free) you will certainly find something useful for yourself.
By the way, this affiliate program is an example of a multi-level one, where you get 30-45% not only from each attracted referral, but also 5% from the orders of those who are attracted by your referral, and so on up to the fourth level.
How to properly advertise affiliate programs?
You can either dedicate an article to a specific affiliate program, for example, “MailerLite Email Service Review”, you talk about this service throughout the article and put an affiliate link everywhere. Again, the meaning is several times in the text, and not on every word of MailerLite.
The second option is to make a small digression and recommend something. For example, your article is called “How to cook delicious borscht” and somewhere in the article you make a digression “By the way, for this recipe I first used a new set of knives that I ordered here (and a link to the AliExpress store for example)” + you can praise them a little or give some assessment and then continue to talk about borscht.
What to do next?
- Make a list of affiliate programs that you want to advertise on your site
- Study the good sites of your competitors, see what they advertise
- Register in them and write out affiliate links so that you can quickly use them
- Study the admin panel of your personal account (where to get the link, how to view statistics and withdraw money)
- If this is a CPA network, look at what products are available, select the most thematic
- When writing new articles, use the links that you have saved for yourself
- You can also edit old posts and add links. After all, they also lead visitors to your site.
The directory of affiliate programs that I use can also help you. You can view it here.
Write in the comments what are you planning or already advertising on your site?
We talked about how to choose an affiliate program and get the first profit. The material will also be useful to you - after reading it, you will understand how partners choose a PP, what nuances they pay attention to, who they trust.
Method 1: Post information on the website
If you have a website, place information about the affiliate program on it. Create a separate page with its description: tell how much and for what you will pay partners, explain the payment procedure, indicate other necessary information. Create separate personal accounts for partners so that they can register, be sure to leave a link for registration.
For example, information about affiliate programs is posted on websites:
Note: in each example, the creators of the PP describe in detail the features of the program, show the amount of earnings, talk about the benefits of working with them. And links to the PPs themselves are placed on the main page of the site.
Most often, links to a page with a description of an affiliate program or registration in it are placed in the footer, on the main and secondary pages. It is important that the section with the PP is one click away from the main one, otherwise potential partners may simply not find it. And if you just launched the program, you need to attract the maximum number of participants.
Life hack: the more you attract the attention of users to the PP, the more chances you have to get active partners. For example, you can inform readers about the launch of the program in a pop-up window or site header. If you place a link to a page in the footer, few people will notice it: the experience of webmasters proves that users pay more attention to the center and top of the page, and almost no attention is paid to the bottom of the page. For example, read about this in an interview with Netology with Yevgeny Kotyak, a teacher at BSU, and Denis Narizhny, the author of the AskUsers service.
Method 2: Add an affiliate to the CPA network
CPA network is an intermediary service between advertisers and webmasters. Advertisers add their affiliate programs to the catalog, and webmasters connect with them and start promoting the products you sell. The CPA network provides a convenient cooperation model, detailed analytics, and deals with payments. Promotion of affiliate programs in such services is convenient, because you are provided with comprehensive support, and webmasters will connect to the affiliate program themselves - there will be no need to advertise anything.
Here are some examples of CPA networks:
The most popular CPA network in RuNet is Admitad. As stated on the main page, it has over 1,600 advertisers and 760,000 webmasters registered.
To add your PP to the catalog, you need to register in the service as an advertiser and conclude an agreement with it. Support will help to cope with technical nuances.
Method 3: Post information on social networks
Tell subscribers on social networks about the launch of an affiliate program. You can immediately tell in the post about the main conditions - the amount of remuneration, the frequency of payments, the promotion product. By the way, this is another idea for the content plan: later it will be possible to publish news about the PP, partner cases, recommendations for them.
To increase your reach, publish a post not only in your community, but also on other pages. For example, in communities with an open wall or in those in which news can be offered. This will help attract more partners.
Method 4: Run ads
Pay for the promotion of an affiliate program - launch contextual, teaser, banner or other types of advertising. Mention the main advantage of your affiliate in the ad to attract more partners, and set up the campaign wisely.
For example, in teaser and banner ads, select sites where the target audience lives - webmaster forums, additional sites of CPA networks. Set up targeted advertising on social networks by selecting users by interests. Or launch contextual ads that will be shown for relevant queries, for example:
- "partnership programs";
- "affiliate programs for earnings";
- Internet affiliate programs.
Method 5: Start a newsletter
If you have an email customer base, start a mailing list with information about a new affiliate program. In the letter, briefly explain what it is and show how your customers can make money selling products. This is necessary because clients are not your target audience: most of them are not familiar with traffic arbitration. Therefore, they need to clearly explain that you offer an additional way to earn money. You can give a link in a letter to a page with a description of the PP, and then send materials in the mailing list with recommendations for promoting referral links.
To prevent the letter from going to spam:
- Do not use spammy words in the title - "guarantee", "super profit", "only today".
- Write clearly and to the point: tell that you have launched a PP and invite the recipient to become a partner.
- If you can, type up a letter with a beautiful design - mail services "trust" such letters more.
Method 6: Write a guest post
A guest post is material that is published on other sites. You write an article and post it on a site where your target audience is. Users read the article, follow the link to the affiliate program and register in it.
You can write a guest post with news about the launch of the PP, with an overview of the affiliate program, or create content in a different format. You can post guest posts:
- On sites in your niche - for example, on blogs of marketing agencies, if you launched a software for an SEO studio.
- On sites that publish reviews of affiliate programs, their owners will be happy to post material for free.
- In the blogs of CPA networks that are just starting to develop, they are usually happy with free content.
Method 7: Enter a multi-level referral system
A multi-level referral system is one of the easiest ways to promote affiliate programs. It works if you already have partners. Just offer them to get rewarded not only for selling products, but also for attracting new members. Usually, partners who have attracted referrals are paid a commission on the income of those who are lower in the structure.
If you are trying to make money on affiliate programs, then you probably know such an amazing phenomenon. It is enough for someone to bring 100 people to earn ten thousand. And someone brings ten thousand people, and cannot earn even 100 rubles.
Why does advertising work for some and not for others?
Let's deal with the “affiliate program phenomenon” right away. So you connect to some kind of affiliate program, and you see people's reviews that they earn big money there. You are happy that you have finally found a “normal” affiliate program and start sending traffic to it. But a day or two or a week goes by and nothing happens.
It turns out that the reviews are lying? Not necessary. It's just that affiliate programs are a special kind of Internet business. Sales of partner products are made “by referral”. That is, you, as it were, recommend on your own behalf to buy a product or register in the service.
And here is the main question - what is it like with you, this very “face”? Are you known? Do they believe you? Or is your name an empty phrase for those to whom you show your affiliate link? What is much more important in affiliate programs is not what we recommend. And who recommends.
And if you want to make a profit from affiliate programs, then you definitely need to reach the audience that would believe you.
Let me guess what you're thinking. You think that “I don’t have such an audience, so nothing will work out.” And here it will work. Here I will show you a couple of ways where you can get a “warm” audience right today that will trust you.
But first, a small "shit parade" - how NOT to advertise affiliate programs (although most people do just that).
How not to advertise affiliate programs
Method #1 - SPAM
It is difficult to come up with a way of advertising that would cause more hatred than SPAM. Do you know why spam brings such bad results? Because people believe that if you are advertised by spam, then you have nothing at all - no money, no conscience. And how can you be trusted after that? How to believe that the product you offer is really high quality? Rather the opposite. You are advertised by SPAM, which means the product is definitely bad.
At what it is now not only about mailing to millions of email addresses. Now it has become very fashionable to engage in spam on social networks. Someone does this frankly and brazenly, posting their links in groups, in comments, in private messages to strangers.
Those who act “smarter” design their VKontakte page in such a way that it sells all of the affiliate links (correct status, correct profile, correct fixed top post) and begin to “friend” with everyone in a row.
It's certainly better than outright spamming. But such a tactic will still not bring much benefit. People are all smart now, and few people can be deceived by your friend requests (they don’t deceive you yourself). Therefore, I believe that spam is a very bad way to advertise an affiliate program.
Method #2 - Contextual advertising
Yes, in the past, affiliate programs were very often and successfully promoted through Yandex Direct and Yandex-YAN. But that was a long time ago, almost in the last Internet century. Now the cost of a click has grown a lot, competitors with budgets and hands from the right place have come running.
And they sell their products. not strangers. And this means that they receive 100% of the income, and not 10-20% like you. This means that they can spend 5-10 times more money on advertising than you.
And in contextual advertising there is the same "cant" with trust. People immediately see that this is paid advertising, and their attitude towards it is appropriate. Teaser networks work more or less well. And all professional arbitrageurs (people who live on the resale of Internet traffic) draw their traffic from there.
But teaser networks work because the price of the transition is very cheap, and so far there are very few people who really know how to work with teasers. But I wouldn’t use “classic” contextual advertising like Yandex Direct anymore. Not that era, not that period of time.
So what do we do in such a situation? Here are three ways that I think are the best for affiliate advertising.
How to advertise affiliate programs correctly
Method #1 - Your website
Let's talk about "heavy artillery" first. I am very conservative about the Internet business, in which something changes every day, and some “super novelties” and “fashion trends” appear twice a day. And I believe that every Internet entrepreneur needs a website.
An ordinary, old-fashioned site where you post the most ordinary articles, and people from search engines come to you to read these articles. This is your platform and your traffic, which no one will ever take away from you.
And the best part is that the traffic is free and very, very “warm”. That is, people who come to you from search engines are very loyal to you in advance. Do you know why? Because they didn't just come to your site. Your site to them recommended.
How search traffic works
A person enters some search query into the system, and Yandex or Google tells them - “Look. I have analyzed thousands of sites on this topic, and I think that this site (your) is the best.” And after such a recommendation, a person comes to you.
And you have a great article too. And the person sees that you are really an expert in your field, and not just accidentally ended up in the TOP-3 of Yandex. Accordingly, right here and now you can offer the visitor some kind of affiliate product. And he will ... believe you.
You say that it takes a long time to promote a site in search engines? How long is for you? Is investing two or three years into writing articles a long time? But then you will never need anything.
But on the other hand, yes, the site will not reach the Yandex TOP in one day. And you need to eat something today. How to be? Here are quick options for proper affiliate advertising.
Method # 2 - Someone else's site
You don't have to wait until your own site starts getting enough visitors. There are already excellent sites in the world that are already promoted in search engines. And do you know what they earn? On advertising.
That is, you can take some kind of affiliate product and advertise it on a promoted site of a similar theme. Do you understand the benefits of such advertising? For visitors to the chat, such advertising will be something like a “recommendation” from the owner of the resource.
That is, you advertise the affiliate program not on your own behalf, but on behalf of the site owner. Just for this approach to work, your ads need to be as "native" as possible. This new buzzword, which has recently appeared in the vocabulary of Internet marketers, just means advertising in disguise.
The best way to do native advertising
Instead of hanging a regular advertising banner somewhere in the sidebar, you can agree with the owner that he will insert a link to your product in a couple of articles for a while. For example, you are promoting an affiliate training course on SEO. And the author of the site has 10 articles on the topic of SEO promotion. In total, they bring him 500 visitors per day from search networks.
The author places one additional phrase in these articles for a week - “By the way, I recommend looking at this product.” In a week, you will receive approximately 3,500 views of your link. And the CTR there will be just huge. This is not a banner in your header.
Yes, most likely the owner of the resource will ask you for such advertising much more money than for a regular banner. But the result you get is much higher. In addition, you will be surprised what pennies site owners usually charge for advertising on their resources.
But it is also very important to check that the site you have chosen really had an author. And then there are the so-called "content" when articles are written by faceless copywriters, and there is no person who would stand behind this resource. Advertising on such a site most likely will not give any benefit.
Do you want to get a completely wild response to your affiliate advertising? Then do not let the owner of the resource go far, he will still be useful to us.
Method #3 - Advertising in someone else's mailing list
Previously, there were no big problems with finding such mailing lists. There was a smrtresponder.ru service, which, among other things, also created a large mailing list where you could always find something to your taste. But the service was closed, and with it the base. Now you have to search for people manually.
I would recommend that you first of all contact the owners of the very sites on which we gave "native" advertising in the previous paragraph. As a rule, all owners of such sites collect their subscription base. They do it not very skillfully, but at least somehow. And their bases are usually small, but active.
Ask the site owner for permission to advertise in the mailing list. It will cost even more than placing links in articles, but we care about ROI, not just price. That is, it is important for us how many rubles we earn for each ruble invested. Everything else is emotions.
If you don’t want to take risks (and who wants to?) - find out if you can first send a rekdam mailing to a small group of subscribers, and then to the entire database, if the test result suits you.
Summary
In conclusion, let's make a small summary to consolidate the "passed".
- Affiliate programs are a special kind of business, where it is much more important not what we sell, but WHO sells it;
- The worst types of advertising for affiliate products are spam and contextual advertising. The first is because of the fact that it causes strong distrust. And the second is because it is very expensive, and we do not see a profit.
- Be sure to build your site and get it promoted on the search engines to get an "eternal" source of hot and free traffic.
- The fastest option for advertising an affiliate program is native advertising on copyright sites that are already promoted. The best way to do this is to place links in thematic articles.
- If the author of the found resource has his own mailing list, be sure to try to advertise there too. It will cost a lot, but the response from such advertising will be as high as possible.
I hope this short overview of how to advertise affiliate programs will be useful to you. Save it to your bookmarks, share with friends. Don't forget to download my book. There I show you the fastest way from zero to the first million on the Internet (squeezed from personal experience over 10 years =)

One of the most popular ways to generate income through the Internet is to earn money on affiliate programs. There is an opinion that this method is the easiest for beginners.
This is not entirely true. If you have no experience in this business, then you will have to figure out a lot in order to get your first income from an affiliate program.
A huge plus of this method is that you can stop promoting a product or service at any time and switch to another, more profitable affiliate program or promote several affiliate programs at the same time, which will significantly increase your income. The first question for beginners is where to start.
Let's look at everything in order. First of all, you will have to delve into many technical points. These skills will be useful not only for working with affiliate programs, but also in general if you want to receive a steady income through the Internet. Understand what is hosting, ftp, html. In fact, it is not so difficult, just basic knowledge in this area is enough.
What are the affiliate programs
Commodity affiliate programs
A very popular trend among webmasters. You have probably seen an advertisement for some branded watches for little money with a huge discount of 75%, or a miracle tea that “cures all diseases” or a weight loss remedy, taking which you will immediately lose 10 kg of weight ... All these products are promoted by the webmaster through affiliate programs.
In this niche, it is customary to pay for a confirmed order. Here's how it works. A customer makes an order using your affiliate link. This order is immediately displayed in the affiliate program statistics. It is assigned the status “order in processing”.
The advertiser also sees this order. His task is to call the client and clarify the details of the order. If it is confirmed, then the confirmed order and the amount of your monetary reward will be displayed in the statistics, which is approximately from 400 to 1000 rubles.
An example of products that can be sold through an affiliate program
Gaming affiliate programs
Do you know that online games can earn decent money? No, not to play games, but to promote them through an affiliate program in the same way. Hundreds of online games to promote, millions of fans to play! Games have been played and will always be played. Game affiliate programs pay for certain actions.
A beginner should not immediately choose a game with a high payout, but it is better to start with a registration fee of 5-10 rubles. Here money is made on volumes.
Nobody prevents you from making 1000 registrations per day. The task is simple, you need to get a lot of cheap traffic!
Games where you can earn. Affiliate payments can be both in rubles and in foreign currency Affiliate programs for mobile applications
Smartphones and tablets began to replace computers. Mobile users are becoming more and more. Affiliate programs for mobile traffic began to appear in this young and promising market.
Such affiliate programs make payments in dollars and euros. This is another plus in favor of earning on affiliate programs, you yourself can choose in which currency you earn!
In most cases, the user only needs to install a free application on their smartphone or tablet using your affiliate link.
Mobile applications Affiliate programs infocourses
There are very few worthy affiliate programs in this niche. The point is simple. There is a certain expert in his field, for example, in losing weight without dieting and exercising. This expert created his own methodology and sells it to other people in the form of webinars or video tutorials.
The price for such info-courses is not cheap, from 6,000 rubles and can reach 90,000 rubles and more. The authors of such courses are divided according to the affiliate program from 10% to 50% of their income! This percentage depends on the "greed" of the author.
Some affiliate programs give 100% of their income for inexpensive courses from 300 to 1,000 rubles. Such affiliate programs can be completely in different topics. Learning foreign languages, business, relationships, health, etc.
Online English course
Almost every major online store has its own affiliate program. Eldorado, M Video, AliExpress, Lamoda, etc. You recommend the products of these stores, and they pay you a percentage of the sale.
Each online store has its own from 2% and above. It will be the most difficult for beginners to make money on such affiliate programs.
Of course, there are many other affiliate programs, such as casinos, SMS subscriptions, essays, hosting, etc. I have listed only the most popular of them.
If you want to master earnings on affiliate programs, then any affiliate programs can be easily found on the Internet or on specialized forums for webmasters.
How and where to get an affiliate link
What are the affiliate programs, we figured it out, now we need to get a special link through which orders will be transferred to the affiliate admin panel.
Click add site and select where you will attract traffic from. If you don't have anything from the list, arbitrate.
After you have created a platform, you can go to the “offers” menu (goods or services). Select a category and see all. The rate is how much the affiliate program will pay you for an action, for example, for a confirmed application.
Click "add". Read and accept the terms of the affiliate program, click “add” again. Next, click “create stream” and go to the settings menu. We come up with a name, select if there are several of them in the list.
5 Ways to Promote Affiliate Programs
If you have your own website, then choose an offer that fits your theme and place advertising materials on it that the affiliate program provides in the “promo” section.
If you don’t have your own website, then there are two ways to promote: paid and free. The free way is spam. There is no point in considering it. You can't earn much from this. The paid method is the so-called traffic arbitration. We buy traffic and send it to an affiliate program.
You can buy traffic in all popular social networks, in Yandex Direct and Google Adwords contextual advertising. IN .
Method number 1. Targeted advertising on VKontakte
For beginners, I recommend starting with social networks, as there is an opportunity to fine-tune your ads to the target audience. Consider an example on the social network VKontakte and create our first advertising campaign for a physical product. The VK advertising account is located on this link.
Select "External Site".
We write an attractive title so that the user would like to click on our ad and do not forget about a high-quality product image. Use a close-up, it always works well.
We select the subject and subsection, set the age limit, if required. I put +18.
The right title is 80% success! You can select only the desired country, and leave the field cities and regions empty, then we will be able to sell goods to the whole country.
On the right, you can see how the audience changes depending on the settings. Set gender and age. The solvent audience starts at the age of 24. Don't bet on students. They don't have money.
You can experiment with the “interests” and “additional options” settings, but this will significantly narrow the audience.
Avoid showing ads on weekends and holidays We select “Payment for impressions”, set the cost of impressions 2-3 times less than the proposed one, put a checkmark “Limit impressions”.
This will allow you not to spend money on those who are not interested in this offer. Select “create a new campaign”, name it and click “create ad”.
We check all the settings again, if you find an error, then edit it, if everything is fine - click on the name of your advertising campaign on the left.
Check all settings Important! Set a limit of 100 rubles, this will help you not to drain money “for nothing”. Then click "launch". It remains to wait until the ad passes moderation and the first clicks on the ad go.
But, you should not expect earnings from one such ad. They need to be different and many. Change headings, pictures, display format, audience. In more detail, how to work with these traffic sources, I will tell in the following articles.
I think you understand the principle of the approach. It is also worth testing one product on different affiliate programs. Some may have a percentage of confirmed orders of 30%, while others may have 70%. Test!
Method number 2. Advertising in groups and publics
Let's look at the extraction of cheap traffic from the social network VKontakte, for example, for a free online game. This time we will buy advertising posts in groups and publics. This is how an advertisement for an online game in public looks like.
First of all, we need to collect as many groups as possible with an audience of up to 18 years old. Such an audience willingly plays games and it is easier to make money on it in this niche. The site allsocial.ru will help us with this. All communities with detailed statistics are collected here. Let’s choose the “humor” category and start looking down.
Let's analyze the public "KEKS", it has 386 thousand subscribers. Let's study this group in detail. Click on the number in the “visitors” column and go to the statistics.
Pay attention to the “unique visitors” scale. We see that the graph is uneven. This means that the owner of this group is actively attracting new subscribers. There are approximately 10-15 thousand visitors here. 400 thousand subscribers - this still does not mean anything, active users are ten times less.
Geography. 72% Russia. Many game offers can be advertised for a wide GEO, and not just for one Russia, see the terms and conditions for each offer in the affiliate program.
And the last indicator that you should pay attention to is the devices from which users enter. It can be seen that as many as 83% of mobile users. Now we need to find out how much advertising in this community will cost.
We go to the group we need and look for the contacts of the administrator. We go to the personal page and study the wall. Most have already posted a price list with prices.
We see that this person has several groups and when ordering advertising in bulk, he makes a discount. If the price suits us, then we write to him in a personal and agree on a certain time.
Carefully study each group and write them down to yourself in a separate file. In the future, you will have a decent base. You will know exactly in which publics to advertise product affiliate programs, and in which online games or mobile applications!
