How Small Blogs Can Earn Big Affiliate Sales (Without Being Sleazy)

Many new bloggers think affiliate sales are the magical answer to earning online.
They grab some random offers off ClickBank or slather their blog with automated ad banners, dream of making a fortune… and then wonder why they’re earning $1.50 a month. I recently reviewed more than 100 startup blogs and saw this over and over.
small blog big salesI also know about the failed affiliate sales problem from firsthand experience—I put up an Amazon book cart widget in my sidebar when I first launched my blog, thinking that would be a cash cow. Um, no.
Why doesn’t this work? Without huge volumes of traffic, you simply don’t have enough readers to earn well when a small percentage of them clicks your ad. That’s partly because the portion of people willing to click on ads is going down—it’s now less than 2 percent of viewers overall, a Doubleclick survey in April showed. Also, nearly 200 million people block ads now, a PageFair/Adobe study found.
Worse, you’re sending any readers who do click away from your blog to buy somewhere else. That doesn’t help you build relationships with readers and gain their trust—and that’s the key to earning well as a low-traffic blogger.
Affiliate sales have to be done in a careful, selective way on a small blog, to avoid damaging your reputation and to keep your audience growing. The popular bloggers may send you a new affiliate offer each week, but that’s unlikely to work for you.
Fortunately, with a bit of care in choosing what and how you affiliate sell, low-traffic blogs can earn well—and far from being considered sleazy, you’ll get thank-you notes from your readers.
I’ve earned $1,200 a year or more per affiliate offer using this method, and with virtually no marketing.
How? Here are the basic elements of how low-traffic blogs can earn big affiliate selling—without coming off like a sleazebag:

1. Find Out What Your Readers Really Need

The first step to affiliate sales success as a newbie blogger is to start talking to your readers. Yes, even if there are only 15 of them.
Find out: Why are they reading you? What are their problems? What are they struggling with?
You may think you know what readers of your blog topic would like to buy, but trust me, you’ll be surprised.
For instance, I run a blog for freelance writers. But my biggest early affiliate-sales win was for a blogger community membership.
fill a needIt turned out there was a lot of crossover between writers who freelance for clients, and writers who want to earn from their own blog! I only discovered that by talking to readers and learning what their dreams encompassed.
The better the “match” is between your subscriber needs and the affiliate offer the easier it will be to sell.
I thought freelance writers would just want to buy books on copywriting or writing craft from me, but my research proved that wrong.
Another unexpected discovery was that many new freelance writers needed tools for setting up their freelance business. These included accounting software, writer website setup help, web hosting, and mailing-list software—so these are the things I affiliate sell.
Your market research will help you discover possible affiliate offers that will be well-received by your readers—and that may be totally off your radar.
The plus here: If you offer something your readers really need, they won’t be offended, even if they don’t want to buy it right now. It feels like you care and want to help their business succeed, rather than that you’re just out to make a buck.

2. Sample the Wares

Once you’ve figured out the types of products your people need, investigate possible solution providers, and sample their offers yourself. Use it, test it, ask questions about it.
The ideal situation is where the solution you want to affiliate sell is a key part of your own business model, you use it extensively and know a lot about it.
Whether it’s a billing program that helps you track payments or a blogging community that gives you answers, document the positives of the offer and—also key—what makes it a great value for the money.

3. Testify

Once you’ve road-tested a product or service your readers have said they need and confirmed that it’s terrific, it’s time to tell your readers about it. Not in a salesy way, though. Simply start reporting on your experience.
For instance, I created a series of blog posts about my experience in the paid blogging community and documented how it was helping me improve my headlines, attract subscribers, and solve technical blogging struggles.
These posts aren’t just a chance to educate your readers about this affiliate offer—they also humanize you and make you more relatable by showing how you’ve struggled to solve problems your readers may also be grappling with.
This builds rapport and sets the stage for you to sell. Here’s the top of one of my testimony posts:


testimonials
Another popular approach that works great once you have several affiliate offers is to do a post that’s a list of the tools you use in your business—tools you affiliate sell.
Here’s the top of an affiliate-sales oriented roundup post from Simplicity Small Businessthat lists nearly two dozen products and solutions they use (note the full disclosure at the top that they are using affiliate links):
affiliate linksReaders view these more as a “peek behind the curtain” opportunity, to see how the sausage is made at your online business than as an obnoxious sales pitch.
It feels natural to have affiliate links on posts like these, not spammy. This is light years away from using AdSense. This is posting a hand-curated offer for items you have vetted. Readers can feel the difference.
One note: Don’t go dropping sly affiliate links into posts without disclosure.
If you’re going to pop affiliate links into all your blog posts routinely, you’ll need a global disclosure at the top of your blog. But my recommendation is to save the affiliate plugs for select situations, where you make a point of disclosing it. Either way, be refreshingly honest—readers will respect that.
Once you’ve identified reader needs, found some solutions, tested them out, and written about your experiences, you’re set to make some serious affiliate sales to your small audience. You won’t have to send a single marketing email, either.
How do you do that without slapping up a lot of banner ads all over your blog, or making every blog post about the offers you affiliate sell?
There’s a low-key way to present them that’s inoffensive, persistent, and effective.

4. Inside the Ideal Affiliate Sales Page

A “Products I Love” page is a subpage of your blog, where you can sell affiliate offers in perpetuity with links back to those testimonial or roundup posts that document your success with the solution.
Having these sales items under a subpage is a less aggressive way to sell than ads all over your Home page. Marketing pros call this “selling in the background.”
You’re not actively emailing out about these products. They just sit on your site for readers to discover. I’ve never had a single complaint about my Products I Love page! And your person­al testimony that it’s truly a worthwhile product or service counts for a lot.
There are a few key elements to a good Products I Love page:

Your story

Before you list your affiliate offers, you’ll need to get readers oriented. What’s this page all about? Why are these the items you recommend?
Don’t just throw your offers on a page. Lead readers down the path of understanding why you are turning them on to these particular solutions. You’ll want to tell a bit of your personal experience with each solution as well, so you can get into more detail.
For instance, because I came out of journalism, mine begins, “This is a funny page for me to be writing. I never thought I’d sell anything to anyone!”
Be a live human being with a real story on this page, and readers will be willing to check out your offers.

Your inclusion policy and affiliate disclosure

At the top, specify what your policy is for featuring affiliate offers on your blog. For instance, here’s a succinct disclosure policy and a snapshot of what to expect of the page over time, at Smart Blogger:

Smart Blogger tool list
Another way is to build your policy about your affiliate choices right into the headline and subhead of the page, as you see the home and lifestyle blog Full of Days doing here:
lifestyle blogIf you’re a product or course junkie who’s always surfing around for the latest-and-greatest, you might also curate a “Products I Love” page of the things you discover each quarter or month.
This feels almost like community service—you’re doing the research and helping readers by finding fresh deals, thereby saving them time. That’s the angle you see here on the siteTotal Women’s Cycling:

products we loveWhatever your criteria for choosing your affiliate products, make sure your disclosure complies with FTC rules. It needs to be clear, prominent on any page with affiliate offers, and require no action by the reader (mousing over or clicking) in order to view the disclosure language.

Your listings

Your listings also give you a chance to provide a brief thumbnail on your personal experience, and how you came to recommend the solution, as Pat Flynn of Smart Passive Income does here with one of the biggest affiliate products on his “Resources” page, BlueHost:

BlueHostYour deals

One final twist that can boost your affiliate sales is to solicit special discounts or deals for your audience from the companies whose offers you affiliate sell.
You see Pat doing that above with his BlueHost deal. If you see you’re doing well selling a particular offer, contact the seller and see if you can get your readers an exclusive—they will love you for it!

2 Tips for Earning Big in Affiliate Sales as a New Blogger

If your audience responds well to your Products I Love page, it’s a sign that you might also move up and actively sell higher-priced affiliate offers via full-blown email marketing campaigns, co-hosting Webinars, and other more aggressive sales tactics.
There are two things to look for in an affiliate offer that will help your sales pitch come off more friendly and less obnoxious, even if you don’t have a huge list:

Start with free and cheap

If you’re just starting out in affiliate sales, don’t clobber your readers over the head with a $1,000 offer. Start slow and test the waters, so you don’t annoy your subscribers and make them leave.
The ideal is to find products that have a free trial for an affordable product or service where your people can start without paying, at no obligation.
For me, the free trial Freshbooks offers helped make me into one of their top affiliates! My people love to try before they buy.
Barring a free trial, a low-cost item is a good starter. The blogging community I affiliate sold was $20 a month, no obligation—pretty low-risk to take a flier on that.
It’s a basic law of marketing that cheaper things are easier to sell, so choosing affordable offers means you won’t need to sell as hard and can avoid alienating your audience.

Look for recurring revenue

One of the best ways to earn well in affiliate sales is to sell a recurring monthly or annual membership product, where commissions continue to be generated as long as your people stay on the program. That way, you sign your people up once and keep earning commissions for as long as they stay in.
As you sign up more people over time, your monthly earnings from that affiliate offer will keep compounding.

Keep It Real

When you share an affiliate link to something you’ve used yourself, you can authentically recommend it. And that’s the easiest and most ethical way to affiliate sell.
Yes, that means turning down a lot of potential opportunities. But remember, offering your list a product that turns out to be low quality isn’t worth the unsubscribes you’ll see and the hit to your reputation.

Let me introduce myself. My name is Richard Nata. I am an author, novelist, blogger and ghost writer. My articles, including short stories have been published in magazines and newspapers since 1994. I have written a lot of books, both fiction and non-fiction. So I was a professional in the field of writing, both fiction and non-fiction.

I was born in Jakarta, August 17, 1968.  

In 1988, at the age of 20 years, I started working as an accounting staff. Age 24 years has occupied the position of Finance Manager. Age 26 years as a General Manager.

In 1994, my articles published in magazines and tabloids.

In 1997, I wrote a book entitled "Buku Pintar Mencari Kerja". This book is reprinted as much as 8 times. Through the book, the authors successfully helped tens of thousands of people get jobs at once successful in their careers. They were also successful when moving to work in other places.

In 1998, I started investing in shares on Bursa Efek Indonesia (Indonesia stock exchange). As a result of investing in the stock market then I can provide consulting services for companies that want to go public in Indonesia stock exchange.

BUKU PINTAR DAPAT KERJA GAJI TINGGI PINDAH KERJA GAJI SEMAKIN TINGGI made by retyping the book BEST SELLER of the author, entitled “Buku Pintar Mencari Kerja”. This ebook available on google play.

In 2015, I had the idea of a startup company where the readers can decide for themselves the next story. WASN'T THIS A GREAT IDEA? IF can be realized WILL BE WORTH billions USD. Because CAN PRODUCE FOR MILLIONS OF DOLLARS even tens of millions USD annually. 

In theory, in 10-20 years into the future, my startup income, amounting to hundreds of million USD annually can be obtained easily. AND IF FOLLOWED BY MANY COMPANIES IN THE WHOLE WORLD WILL THEN BE A NEW INDUSTRIAL worth trillions USD. 

To be honest. Currently I'm not having a lot of money. So I start marketing my startup with blogspot.

My STARTUP :


A story with millions of choices in it - looking investor like you.



Try to imagine this. When you're reading a story on the web or blog, you are given two choices. You can choose the next story based on your own choice. After selecting then you can continue reading the story. Shortly afterwards you will be presented back to the 2 other options. The next choice is up to you. Then you continue the story you are reading. After that you will be faced again with 2 choices. So onwards. The more stories you read so the more options you have taken.


If you feel curious then you can re-read the story by changing your selection. Then you will see a different story with the story that you have read previously. The question now is why is this so? Because the storyline will be varying according to your choice. 


I, as the author is planning to make tens of thousands of articles with millions of choices in it. With tens of thousands of articles then you like to see a show of your favorite series on TV for several years. The difference is while watching your favorite TV series, then you can not change the story. Meanwhile, if you read this story then you can alter the way the story according to your own choice.

You might say like this. Sounds like a book "choose your own adventure". Books I read when I was young.

Correctly. The idea is taken from there. But if you read through a book, the story is not so exciting. Due to the limited number of pages. When a child first you may already feel interesting. But if you re-read the book now then becomes no fun anymore because you don't get anything with the amount of 100-200 pages. 

Have you ever heard of game books?  When you were boy or girl, did you like reading game books? I think you've heard even happy to read it.

Gamebooks are sometimes informally called choose your own adventure books or CYOA which is also the name of the Choose Your Own Adventure series published byBantam BooksGamebook - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gamebook - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A gamebook is a work of fiction that allows the reader to participate in the story by making effective choices. The narrative branches along various paths through the use of numbered paragraphs or pages.

Bantam Books with the Choose Your Own Adventure 

series has produced more than 250 million US 

dollars. While I offer you more powerful than the Choose 

Your Own Adventure. Because of what? Because the 

story that I made much more interesting than the stories 

created by the authors of Bantam Books. You will not get anything just to 100-200 pages. While the story that I created is made up of tens of thousands of articles with millions of choices in it.

For comparison are the books published with the theme "choose your own adventure" produces more than 250 million copies worldwide. If the average price of a book for 5 USD, the industry has produced more than 1.5 billion USD. But unfortunately this industry has been abandoned because the reader begins to feel bored. The last book was published entitled "The Gorillas of Uganda (prev." Search for the Mountain Gorillas ")". And this book was published in 2013.

Based on the above, then you are faced with two choices. Are you interested in reading my story is? Or you are not interested at all. The choice is in your hands.
If you are interested then spread widely disseminated this article to your family, friends, neighbors, and relatives. You can also distribute it on facebook, twitter, goggle +, or other social media that this article be viral in the world. By doing so it is a new entertainment industry has been created.

Its creator named Richard Nata.

The full articles that talks about this: 
  



WHY DO I NEED STARTUP FUNDS FROM INVESTORS? I NEED A LOT OF FUNDS FROM INVESTORS BECAUSE I HAVE TO LOOKING FOR EXPERT PROGRAMMERS(IT).BECAUSE THE DATA IS HANDLED IS VERY LARGE, IT MAY HAVE TO WEAR SOME PROGRAMMERS(IT).

I CAN NOT WEAR SOME FREELANCE PROGRAMMER BECAUSE THE DATA MUST BE MONITORED CONTINUOUSLY FROM VIRUSES, MALWARE, SPAM, AND OTHERS.

IN ADDITION FUNDS FROM INVESTORS IS ALSO USED TO BUY SERVERS WITH VERY LARGE CAPACITY. FUNDS ARE ALSO USED TO PAY EMPLOYEE SALARIES AND OPERATIONAL COSTS OF THE COMPANY.

FUNDS CAN ALSO BE USED FOR ADVERTISING AND OTHER MARKETING STRATEGIES.FUNDS CAN ALSO BE USED TO ADVERTISE MY STARTUP AND OTHER MARKETING STRATEGIES.

IF I GET A VERY LARGE FUND, THE PART OF THE FUNDS USED TO TRANSLATE THE STORY INTO VARIOUS LANGUAGES.With more and more languages, the more readers we get.
WITH MORE AND MORE READERS, THE MORE REVENUE WE GET. 

AS AN INVESTOR THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE TO FEEL ANXIOUS ABOUT YOUR FUNDS. BECAUSE YOUR FUNDS WILL NEVER BE LOST BECAUSE IN 3-5 YEARS YOU HAVE RETURNED THE FUNDS COUPLED WITH PROFIT.
THIS BUSINESS IS ONE AND THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD.

If we can make a good story, so that the readers will 

come again and again for further reading the story then 

our earnings will continue to grow and will never 

diminish. This is due to new readers who continued  to 

arrive, while long remained loyal readers become our 

customers.

So that the number of our readers will continue to 

multiply over time. With the increasing number of loyal 

readership then automatically the amount of income we 

will also grow larger every year. The same thing 

happened in yahoo, google, facebook, twitter, linkedin, 

and others when they still startup.

Deuteronomy {28:13} And the LORD shall make thee the 

head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and 

thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do [them: ]

Try to imagine this. If I give a very unique story. It was the first time in the world. But the world already know this story even liked it. Because the world love the game books. While the story that I made is the development of game books.
Do you Believe if I dare say if I will succeed because my story will be famous all over the world as Harry Potter?
I believe it. Not because I was the author of the story, but because of the story that I made is unique and the only one in the world. 
Income from my startup :
1. Ads. With millions of unique visitors, the price of the ads will be expensive.
2. Affiliate marketing. In addition to advertising, we are also able to put up some banner from affiliate marketing.
3. Contribution of the readers. If you have a million readers and every reader to pay one US dollar per year then you will get the income of one million US dollars per year. 
If you have a million readers and every reader to pay one US dollar per month then you will get as much revenue twelve million US dollars per year.
4. Books and Comics. After getting hundreds of thousands to the millions of readers of the story will be made in books and the form of a picture story (comics).
5. Movies. If we have a good story with millions of readers then quickly we will be offered to make a film based on the story.
6. Merchandise related to characters. After the movies there will be made an offer for the sale of goods related to the characters.
7. Sales. With millions of email that we have collected from our readers so we can sell anything to them.
    Each income (1-7) worth millions to tens of millions of US dollars. 
    Because each income (1-7) worth millions to tens of millions of US dollars. Then in 10-20 years into the future, AI will be earning hundreds of million USD annually.
So how long do you think my story that I made could gather a thousand readers? Ten thousand readers? One hundred thousand readers? A million readers? Five million readers? Ten million readers? More than ten million readers?
But to get all of it of course takes time, can not be instant. In addition, it takes hard work, big funds and placement of the right people in the right positions.
By advertising, viral marketing, strong marketing strategies and SEO then a million readers can be done in less than a year. Ten million readers can be done in two to three years.
This is the marketing strategy of my startup.
When hundreds of thousands or millions of readers already liked my story then they have to pay to enjoy the story that I made.
If you are a visionary then you will think like this.
With the help of my great name in the world of business, my expertise in marketing, advertising, marketing by mouth, viral marketing, then collecting a million readers to ten million readers will be easy to obtain. Is not that right?
The question now is what if people like my story as they like Harry Potter? You will get tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of email addresses from readers. With that much email, we can sell anything to the readers.
Since April 2013, Wikipedia has around 26 million articles in 285 languages are written by 39 million registered users and a variety of anonymous people who are not known from other parts of the world.  Web ranked by Alexa, Wikipedia is a famous website number 6 which has been visited by 12% of all Internet users with 80 million visitors every month and it is only from the calculation of America.

resource : http://www.tahupedia.com/content/show/136/Sejarah-dan-Asal-Mula-Wikipedia

If no Wikipedia then need hundreds of thousands to millions of books required to make 26 million articles in 285 languages into books.

With the Wikipedia then people started to leave to read a book or books to seek knowledge about a subject or many subjects.

The same thing will happen. Read a story in a book or books to be abandoned. Read a story with millions of choices on the web or blog is far more interesting than reading a book or books. 

So what happens next? In 10-20 years ahead then read a story in a book to be abandoned. Otherwise my startup will grow and continue to develop into a new entertainment industry.

New entertainment industry, where I was a forerunner startup will continue to evolve. 
Therefore, in 10-20 years into the future, my startup will be earning hundreds of million USD annually.

So do not delay. Invest your money immediately to my startup. Take A Look. There are so many advantages if you want to invest in my startup.
WHY YOU SHOULD INVEST YOUR MONEY RIGHT NOW? .
IF YOU INVEST YOUR FUNDS IN ONE, TWO OR THREE YEARS INTO THE FUTURE, YOU MAY BE TOO LATE.
BECAUSE IN 1-3 YEARS INTO THE FUTURE THEN I'VE GOT THE FUNDS. THE FUNDS CAN COME FROM SOME INVESTORS, LOANS FROM BANKS OR FROM ADVERTISEMENTS POSTED ON MY BLOG.

IF I'VE GOT A LARGE AMOUNT OF FUNDS THEN I'VE NO NEED OF YOUR FUNDS. SO INVEST NOW OR NOT AT ALL.

My BLOG started to be written January 11, 2015. TODAY, MAY 30, 2015, THE NUMBER OF CLICKS HAS REACHED 56,750. SO FAR SO GOOD.

If I get big funds from investors then with a quick story that I wrote will spread throughout the world.

So I got acceleration because I can put ads in a large variety of media such as Google AdWords, Facebook, and others. I also can perform a variety of other marketing strategies.
If I do not get funding from investors then my story would still spread throughout the world. But with a longer time, Slow but sure.

So either I get funding from investors or not, the story that I wrote will remain spread throughout the world. Ha ... 7x

So don't worry, be happy.

My advice to you is you should think whether the data that I have provided to you makes sense or not .
If my data reasonable then immediately invest your funds as soon as possible.

Then we discuss how we plan further cooperation.

Thank you.
Lord Jesus bless you.
Amen
P.S. The offer letter I gave also to the hedge funds and 

venture capital and other major companies 

in the entire 

world. So who is fast then he will get it.


P.P.S. In addition, there is one more thing I 

want to tell you. If a story can generate tens 

of millions of US dollars, then what if made 


many stories? Then why do not you make 2, 3 or many stories? You will get hundreds of million USD annually.
