I'll tell you how! Recognize the kind of affiliate marketing that is best suited for you.
If you have a successfully running website you should consider the "pay per click" affiliate marketing method by building an association with an advertiser/ product merchant.
The method works on the number of clicks on adverts placed on your website.
The advertiser will pay you a definite amount for every click his advertisements receive and this is a great way to earn money if you have regular audiences but for website owners who receive negligible traffic on their pages, this method is ill advised.
Placing the links correctly is integral to your affiliate marketing techniques.
Since you will be paid by the amount of traffic you can direct to your affiliates' pages as well as the traffic coming into to your website it is essential that you place the links such that they are easy to locate, identify and follow up on.
When placing links within texts make sure you keep them bold, bright blue and underlined so that visitors can easily follow them up.
Keywords are a powerful tool in affiliate marketing since the money to be made is earned off the traffic generated at the website.
To get the maximum traffic it is essential to have high search engine rankings and this can be achieved with optimized keywords and strategic placement of the same.
Pepper your articles/ text with keywords and make sure you use them in the title as well.
