How to Affiliate Marketing: Step-by-Step Guide

It's not that damn hard.

In fact, it's a piece of cake when you understand the process, respect the process, and follow it to a "T".

I'm talking about making a good living as an affiliate marketer. No, not a millionaire, but a few thousand bucks a month in profit you could use to pay off that mortgage or send your kids to school.

It all begins with making that first buck, that first $1 bill somehow in your mind will prove to you that this is real and will drive you to scale your success, starting with...

Step 1: Get a product.

You need a product to promote (duh) as an affiliate, so find one you like and write the author for a review copy. 9 times out of 10, he or she will say yes if it means making more sales for them.

Step 2: Review the product.

In step 1, I told you to get a "review copy" of the product. Why? People know the difference between a review that's real, and one that's faked.

Yours is real so your passion and words will come through to the reader without coming off as faked to get a sale.

Step 3: Write and submit one article a day.

This is a simple way to drive traffic slowly but surely. When you finish writing your articles based on targeted keywords, send it to ezine articles and make sure the resource box is good.

Step 4: Sit back and relax while the sales roll in.

Listen, I've been in the affiliate marketing game long enough that it's become second nature to me. There's nothing really "new" about this.

I know what you're thinking, "But, won't this method become obsolete in the next few months?". My answer would be a firm, "no". This is not the latest Facebook method, the coolest twitter marketing trick, or the neatest eBay strategy that stays hot for only a few short months before it get's saturated by the market.

This simple affiliate marketing crash course can not be saturated. I should know because I and many other successful marketers like myself are using it daily with success. It stands the test of internet time since the idea of making money online was ever conceived.

Will this guide require work? Yes. There's no doubt about it. But is it worth it? Again, Yes. If you think you can just turn on your computer and money finds it's way into your bank

account...maybe it's best you find the exit door and see your way out back to a 9 to 5 job.

But if you're willing to put in a little bit of effort to get phenomenal long-term results and enjoy the profits of your business, you're in for a treat.
