Can Bloggers Make Money Without Google AdSense?
Tumblr media
When I started blogging, about 6 months back at that time I started writing blogs just because I was having nothing else to do. Slowly it became my passion and I started writing because of my passion. But at that time I was not knowing about Google AdSense and I was not even aware of that, that we can even earn from blogging. Then I slowly started knowing about Google AdSense and all. I have joined many Bloggers group, and I frequently see there that all are running towards or I can say rushing towards Google AdSense approval as it’s the only way to earn by blogging. If you all think like that then let me tell you that it’s not the truth. There are many other ways too to earn by blogging. In this article, I would be talking about 4 ways to earn by blogging other than Google AdSense-
Tumblr media
Affiliate Marketing- Have you heard about affiliate marketing before, if no then let me tell you that by this method you can earn a whole lot of money. The things you have to do is that just make an affiliate account, it can be from Amazon Affiliate, flip kart Affiliate or any other affiliate linking market and after making that account you have to just put relevant links on your blog, but the links should be like if you are writing about dogs then you can put links of dog food and dog products. People who read your blog will click on those links and whenever they buy the product from your provided link you will earn money.
Tumblr media
Get Paid To Write Reviews- There are many people out there you can find online who will pay you to write reviews on their provided products. You can even connect to a company, they will provide you products and you just have to review it. You can even go for books reviews. I too have done a book review but that was a free review, you can have a look from here-
Tumblr media
Promote And Market Your Own Product- Promote and sell your own products. This would be the best thing you can ever do. Promoting your own product and that also for free of cost. I have seen many business people who are promoting their own products by making ads on their own blogs and sites and they are earning a huge amount of money by doing these things.
Tumblr media
Accept Donations- Last but not least, the easiest thing is to accept donations. For doing so you just have to add a new plugin which will make your site to accept donations and that’s it. If anyone liked your content and if they want then they will donate you some amount of money of their choice. It’s that easy. I have talked about 4 ways; it does not mean that there are only 4 ways. There are many other ways to earn by blogging without AdSense. If you liked this article then you can subscribe to my blog, because I post such articles that help new bloggers to enhance their blogs. You can even follow me on Social Networking site- Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/thestoryteller129/ Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/12imbibe/ You can even join our WhatsApp group in which we help new bloggers to enhance their writings and more such things- https://chat.whatsapp.com/J9f7HvCr9SwIHehKv0uJe5 Read the full article

Ein Guide - wo überall kann ich meinen Reflink verteilen Teil 1
Tumblr media
Manchmal ist es ja auch schwer. Der Kopf raucht, die Gedanken schwirren und man hat sich irgendwie verlaufen und weiß gar nicht mehr wo man als nächstes ansetzen soll. Dieser Guide wird Dir helfen mehr Reichweite zu generieren. Lass uns deinen Reflink verteilen, auf verschiedene Arten, in Netzwerken, Foren, Blogs und Mails. All dies steht Dir zur Verfügung und will genutzt sein. Konzentrierst Du Dich nur auf die sozialen Netzwerke so wird dies langfristig nicht reichen. Da geht doch viel mehr, viel viel mehr!  
Tumblr media
Reflink verteilen, kostenlos über social Media  
Social Networks - the biggest thing und kostenlos
...und das ist wirklich the biggest thing. Ich frage mich wann ich zuletzt so viel Text nur für eine Kategorie auf den Bildschirm gebracht habe. Natürlich sind die sozialen Medien hier ganz weit vorn. Zum Einen kannst Du hier deine Links kostenlos preis geben, zum Anderen tummelt sich hier Deine Zielgruppe, die Du direkt ansprechen kannst. Dieser Teil des Guides wird wohl mit Abstand der größte, da ich näher auf die Plattformen eingehe. Den Social Network Guide kannst Du Dir hier als PDF herunterladen   Reflink verteilen bei Facebook - na klar, kostenlos und effektiv Das nenne ich mal range. Bei Facebook einen Reflink verteilen gleicht dem Spaziergang mit dem Hund, anleinen, los gehen. Auch in meinem Starterkurs geht es anfangs nur um Facebook. Nahezu jeder kennt FB, nutzt FB, weiß aber kaum welches Potenzial darin steckt. Dein Profil bei FB sollte gut gestaltet sein, persönliches Profilbild, anständiges Headerbild. Vollständig ausgefüllte Bio mit allen Infos die es zu Dir gibt. Solltest du mit einem Blog arbeiten so darf dein Link dazu im Profil natürlich nicht fehlen. Deine Chronik sollte schon etwas gefüllt sein, am besten mit Beiträgen und Bildern, die Deine Zielgruppe auch ansprechen. Nutze hier vielleicht Spruchbilder zum Thema. Wie du diese einfach erstellst, erf��hrst du in meinem Beitrag zu Spruchbildern. Eine weitere Möglichkeit unheimlich viel Aufmerksamkeit zu erregen ist SociSpot, interaktive Bilder, das Review dazu findest Du hier. Arbeite dich weiter durch die Facebook-Gruppen deiner Zielgruppe, tritt diesen bei und agiere damit, mal ohne, mal mit Reflink. Ein anständig verfasster Post findet hier anklang und sollte bestenfalls Deinen Reflink beinhalten. Informiere, gebe und lass die Menschen genau wissen worum es geht. Besser noch sind Erfahrungen die Du mitteilen kannst. - keinesfalls solltest Du hier einfach nur stumpf deinen Link posten und auf Klicks oder gar Sales hoffen. Sei kreativ, freundlich, nah beim Interessenten, dann klickts von ganz allein. - Vorsicht beim Posten in Gruppen, nicht übertreiben sonst gibt es eine Sperre! Ein gutes Zeichen für einen guten Beitrag sind Kommentare, schaffst Du es deine Zielgruppe zu Interaktionen zu bewegen so bist du ganz weit vorn. Erstelle Umfragen, gibt Tipps, und bereite dich darauf vor gutes Wissen preis geben zu können. Dominiere deine Nische durch dein Expertenwissen - eigne Dir dieses unbedingt an. Du bist Experte sobald du mehr weißt als andere und solltest über das, was du verkaufen möchtest bestens bescheid wissen. Dies gilt immer, egal wo Du Deinen Reflink verteilen möchtest solltest Du Dich in der Expertise dazu beweisen können. Das posten allgemein lässt sich mit dem Tool nwCloud sogar automatisieren. Gute Zeiten um in Gruppen zu interagieren ist morgens von 8 - 9, mittags von 12-13 und abends von 18-21 Uhr. Kommt es zum persönlichen Austausch über den Messenger, so bist du auf jeden Fall darauf vorbereitet und kannst reichlich Infos und Tipps an dein Gegenüber geben. Gib viel und gib mehr, dann wirst auch Du dafür belohnt werden.
Tumblr media
Halte mal eine .pdf oder eine Checkliste bereit, vielleicht ein gutes Video welches Du deinem Interessenten zukommen lässt. Baue Vertrauen auf und gib was das Zeug hält. Man wird es dir danken, im besten Falle mit einem Abschluss - zudem gibt es dir ein super Gefühl anderen geholfen zu haben. Du wirst Gefallen daran finden und daraus Motivation ziehen. Nutze eine Facebook-Fanpage (Seite). Erstelle eine Seite, entweder zu Dir oder auch zu Deinem Produkt oder Deiner Nische. Auch hier muss das Profil gepflegt sein. Auf dieser Seite sollten Infos zu deiner Nische, deinem Produkt veröffentlicht werden. Likes dafür findest du in Facebook-Gruppen, z.B. "Like4Like" oder "Liketausch". Nutze hierfür die Suchfunktion in Facebook - poste die URL deiner Fanpage und die Likes kommen fast automatisch. Auf der Seite selbst lässt sich ein Button einfügen, "mehr dazu", "Kontakt", und einige andere, den Du natürlich mit Deinem Reflink verlinken kannst. Beiträge auf der Seite lassen sich planen. Meine Seite zu Socitools hat aktuell für einen Monat Spruchbilderchen eingespeist und wirft diese voreingestellt nach Datum und Uhrzeit heraus, einfach um meinen Reflink zu verteilen. Ähm...okay, aktuell der Link zu Socitools.com.   Auf Instagram geht´s richtig ab Lange Zeit habe ich selbst Instagram total unterschätzt. Erst mit dem Start von Socitools habe auch ich mich intensiv damit beschäftigt, Traffic von Instagram zu bekommen. Auch hier lässt sich ein Reflink verteilen, und das gar nicht so schlecht. Ich möchte hier nicht so ausführlich darauf eingehen, da der Blogartikel "mehr Follower auf Instagram" eigentlich alles relevante dazu erklärt. Nutzen solltest Du es auf jeden Fall, es steckt nicht viel Arbeit dahinter und wird nach geringer Zeit zum Selbstläufer. Profil einrichten, Bilder posten, Text dazu. Im Beitragstext immer auf den Link im Profil hinweisen und auch deinen Reflink direkt hier einfügen. Oft schreibe ich im Text: "Link wie immer auf meinem Profil oder hier heraus kopieren: http://meinreflink.irgenwas" Die meisten Instagram-User sitzen am Smartphone oder Tablet, was das kopieren eines Links natürlich erschwert, nutze diese Möglichkeit dennoch. Du solltest auch die Verwendung von Hashtags # nicht außer acht lassen. Dazu aber später mehr in diesem Beitrag.   Google+ ist doch wie Facebook Google macht alles ein wenig anders. Das Netzwerk hier heißt Google+, gern auch mit dem G+ gekennzeichnet. Ich persönlich bin ja ein Google Fan, ehrlich! Viele schimpfen von wegen "Datenkrake" und so weiter (hey, Facebook macht doch nichts anderes), aber man darf auch nicht vergessen was Google uns alles einfach so, kostenlos, an die Hand gibt. Hier aber erstmal nur mehr über das Netzwerk G+ selbst. Profil einrichten, komplett ist hier empfehlenswert. Ähnlich wie bei Facebook muss dieses auch gepflegt sein. Header, Profilbild, Bio ausgefüllt (ein Link in der Bio...warum nicht) - ansprechend. Sei auf jeden Fall authentisch, freundlich, näher dran als andere. Schon im Profil lässt sich der erste Link setzen. Zum Beispiel zu deinem Blog, deiner Landingpage oder eben zu deinem Affiliate-Produkt.
Tumblr media
Deine Navigation durch die Google Apps Von da an kannst Du G+ nutzen und das in allen Bereichen die Google dir zur Verfügung stellt. In deinem Browser (sofern dies Chrome ist) findest du oben, rechts neben deinem Profilbild das Apps-Menü, hier gelangst du umgehend zu Google+. Der Aufbau von G+ ist schier anders als der, der Anderen - aber dennoch simpel und übersichtlich gehalten. Du hast Zugriff auf deine "Chronik", die Oberfläche wo alles erscheint, was Du auf G+ verteilst. Diese Chronik erscheint auch direkt nach dem Öffnen der App, "Übersicht" genannt. Hier erscheint alles was Du auf Google+ veröffentlichst und Beiträge der Menschen, denen Du folgst. Bei Google+ musst Du natürlich Reichweite aufbauen, das geht nur nach und nach. Suche dir hier passende Communities, einfach durch klicken auf Communities und dann über die Suchfunktion finden. Schreibe gute Beiträge in diesen Gruppen, die, wer hätte es gedacht, deinen Reflink enthalten. Folge selbst interessanten Menschen aus deiner Nische und liefere einfach etwas Mehrwert. Du bist ja inzwischen Experte und kannst anderen Menschen mitteilen wie der Hase läuft. - andere werden auch Dir folgen, das Prinzip ist das gleiche wie bei Facebook und Instagram. Kommentiere, agiere, sei dabei. Deine Beiträge von Facebook kannst Du hier zackig per Copy & Paste einfach einfügen und posten. Ob auf deiner Übersicht als Beitrag oder eben in den Communities. Ich habe meistens beides genutzt. Ist Dein Betrag gut genug so werden andere Nutzer diesen teilen und gleichzeitig deinen Reflink verteilen.   Lass die Brieftauben Deinen Reflink verteilen, bei Twitter Das pfeifen die Spatzen von den Dächern. Nichts anderes ist Twitter. Kurz (140 Zeichen), knapp, genau. Ich habe mal gehört, Twitter hätte die SMS fürs Internet erschaffen. Auf Twitter agieren ist im Grunde ganz einfach - nur eben etwas kurz. Wie überall, benötigst du hier einen Account und ein ausschlaggebendes Profil. Folge anderen, mach mit (Notiz an mich: - sollte das als Grundregel festlegen) und setze Hashtags im Text. Ein Beispiel: Neue Ideen fürs #Blumenbeet und der #Frühling kann kommen, mehr dazu auf http://reflink  Das ist manchmal gar nicht so einfach, da der Text ja nun mal begrenzt ist. Du benötigst also einen Hashtag zu deinem Produkt. Entweder du recherchierst in sozialen Netzwerken oder auch über Google nach deinem Hashtag. Gib hier, jeweils, in der Suchleiste einfach #deingesuchterhashtag ein und es wird Dir passendes ausgeworfen. Teste das ruhig mal mit #socitools :-) , einmal bei Google und einmal bei Facebook. Je nach dem in welcher Produktnische Du dich bewegst kannst du natürlich neue Hashtags kreieren. Überlege Dir, ob andere Menschen deinen Hashtag nutzen würden. Hashtagnutzer finden relevante Beiträge zum verwendeten Hashtag je nach Plattform, so erhalten sie andere Ergebnisse bei Facebook und wieder andere bei Google. Findet ein Hash anklang in den Netzwerken und wird weiter genutzt so hast du hiermit einen viralen Effekt erzielt der sich verbreitet. - Du wirst also unter dem Hashtag gefunden.   langfristig denken, mit Youtube
Tumblr media
verteile deinen Reflink bei Youtube   Youtube können wir für uns auf zwei Arten nutzen. Einfach, durch die Kommentarfunktion, aufwendig aber zukunftsorientiert durch eigene Videos und einen eigenen Kanal. Je nach dem wie affine Du bist was die eigene Darstellung angeht, kannst Du natürlich hier mit Präsenz glänzen. Ich empfehle Dir beide Varianten bei Youtube zu nutzen um Deinen Reflink unter die Leute zu bringen. Kommentare posten ist nicht wirklich schwer. Einen Google-Account besitzt Du bereits, also kannst auch Du einfach und schnell unter den Videos bei Youtube mitwirken. Oftmals wird diese Art jedoch als Spam eingestuft und vom Urheber direkt gelöscht, sobald sich ein Link darin befindet. Interagiere keinesfalls einfach nur mit Deinem Reflink. Trage etwas zum Thema bei, informiere richtig und verschleiere deine Absicht so gut es geht. Je besser dein Kommentar ist, desto größer wird die Wahrscheinlichkeit, das dieser auch mit Link bestehen bleibt. Besser ist es eigene Videos, also einen eigenen Kanal bei Youtube zu veröffentlichen. Das ist wesentlich einfacher als Du denkst und Du solltest keine Bange davor haben diesen Schritt zu gehen. Nach den ersten paar Videos wirst du merken das es eigentlich ganz normal ist eines zu veröffentlichen. Du kannst mit dem kostenlosen Tool: Screencast-o-matic ganz einfach ein Screenvideo machen, dies speichern und bei Youtube hochladen. Du benötigst natürlich ein Mikrofon. Besser noch eine Webcam, denn es lässt sich so ein Bild im Bild erzeugen. Persönlichkeit erreicht eben immer mehr. Ein Branding von Screencast-o-matig wird Dein Video zieren solang Du die Freeware nutzt, ansonsten kostet die Lizenz 15$ im Jahr und das Logo verschwindet. Du nutzt also das was dir dein Bildschirm zeigt als Video, erzählst etwas informatives dazu und weist auf deinen Link hin, that´s it. Dein Kanal bei Youtube sollte sich um das Thema, Deine Nische, drehen. Youtube ist Google und neben Google die zweitgrößte Suchmaschine. Google selbst wirft die Youtube-Videos bei der Suche direkt mit aus, hier können wir also unheimlich gut Punkten. Nutze im Titel deines Videos auf jeden Fall Keywords die genau auf dein Thema treffen oder gleich Produktnamen. Sucht ein Nutzer bei Google zum Beispiel nach Hundetraining, so wird auch hier sofort ein Youtube-Video mit angezeigt. Entscheidend ist hierfür natürlich ein gutes Ranking in Youtube. Likes, Views, Kommentare, die Beschreibung des Videos und der Titel sowie die angegebenen Tags mixen dieses Ranking zusammen. Scheue nicht dein Video in allen sozialen Netzwerken zu verteilen - du baust hier langfristig Reichweite auf. Das Thema Youtube-SEO ist sehr umfangreich, es würde diesen Beitrag komplett sprengen, ginge ich näher darauf ein. - einfach Anfangen wird Dir aber schon helfen. Möglichkeiten für Videos: Testimonials - Kundenstimmen Tutorials - Anleitungen Reviews - ausführliche Erfahrungsberichte how-to-use-Videos Unboxing - zeige wie du etwas auspackst oder einfach nur ein Video das zum Thema passt Natürlich sind der Kreativität hier kaum Grenzen gesetzt. Ein Video, welches fix mit dem Smartphone gemacht wurde kann ebenso erfolgreich werden wie ein hoch professionelles Video einer Werbeagentur. Wichtig ist einfach, das Du es tust. Unter dem Video sollte die Beschreibung ausführlich, zielgerichtet und informativ sein. Dein Reflink darf hier natürlich auch nicht fehlen. Viele Youtuber haben dafür ein vorgefertigtes Template in dem sogar Affiliatelinks zu ihrem Equipment auf Amazon verweisen. Der Vorteil eigener Videos liegt klar auf der Hand -  sie bleiben auffindbar an Ort und Stelle, und somit auch dein Reflink. ;-)   das Tumblr-Ding Tumbler selbst ist eine spitzen Kiste. Ein Baukasten eben. Dein eigener Microblog lässt sich hier wunderbar gestalten und verwalten. Dies geschieht bei Tumblr vollkommen kostenlos. Ein Profil ist sehr schnell eingerichtet und die Oberfläche von Tumblr selbsterklärend. Ein kleiner Helfer steht dir mit Tipps und einer Führung durch die Tumblr-Welt zur Seite. Ist dein Tumblr einmal eingerichtet, so kannst Du Dich gleich ans Werk machen und erste Beiträge veröffentlichen. Du bist also nun Micro-Blogger - Herzlichen Glückwunsch! :-) Nutze Tumblr genau so als wäre es eine Webseite. Du kannst hier alles nach deinen Vorlieben gestalten, sei ruhig kreativ und ausgefallen aber nah beim Thema. Anziehende Bilder und gute Texte bringen Dich voran. - wie eben bei allen Socials. Deine Tumblr-Beiträge solltest du gut formulieren und informativ umsetzen, bevor Du sie veröffentlichst. Setze deinen Reflink stets mit in deine Beiträge die Punktgenau auf dein Thema treffen. Ein paar Worte reichen hier nicht, du musst schon informieren, geben, liefern. Dein Text sollte mindestens 300 Wörter und ein paar Bilder enthalten. Richte ihn so aus, das in der Überschrift dein Keyword oder auch das beworbene Produkt erscheint. Dieses Keyword solltest du nach guter Möglichkeit auch in weitere Überschriften und in den Text einfließen lassen. Versuche hier ein Dichte von 0,5 - 2% zu erreichen. Ein Keywordtool hilft dir dabei dies zu messen. Deine Textlänge, also die Anzahl der Wörter lässt sich mit Google Drive, über Tools >> Wörter zählen, einfach fest stellen.   angepinnt mit Pinterest, alternativ auch Pocket Pinterest (oder auch Pocket, Du kannst beide einfach nutzen) ist ein ril-Dienst (read-it-later). Interessante Dinge im Netz werden hier für dich festgehalten aber auch anderen zugänglich gemacht. Bei Pinterest musst Du Deine Pinnwand erstellen und diese der Öffentlichkeit freigeben. Profil einrichten, erste Pinnwand erstellen, Browser-Button installieren (hier für Chrome).
Tumblr media
PinterestButton für Chrome So lassen sich also zahllose Pinnwände zu jedem x-beliebigen Thema erstellen. Fasse hier zusammen, z.B. eine Pinnwand für vegane Rezepte, alte Autos oder Tutorials für Workouts. Deine Beiträge von Tumblr lassen sich dann ganz einfach mit einem Klick per Mouseover über das Beitragsbild oder den Text anpinnen. So fern die BrowserApp aktiv ist, wirst Du über Bildern und Texten das "pin it" Zeichen sehen. Mit einem Klick darauf wirst Du gefragt auf welcher Pinnwand, falls Du mehrere hast, gepinnt werden soll und dein Pin ist vollzogen und erscheint. You did it! Mehr gibt es da kaum zu tun. Stöbere einfach mal ein wenig bei Pinterest, du wirst staunen was Menschen nicht alles zusammentragen.     LinkedIn und Xing zum Netzwerken Es ist einfach Geschmackssache. Ich persönlich bin ehr vertraut mit LinkedIn, andere wiederum schwören auf Xing. Es kann aber auch nicht schaden die Registrierung bei beiden Netzwerken zu vollziehen. Wie immer gilt - Profil einrichten, Bilder, Bio, Links setzen. LinkedIn erinnert bei der Verwendung ehr an Facebook. Links werden hier automatisch von LinkedIn verschleiert, das macht aber nichts, denn sie funktionieren. Hast Du Dein Profil erstellt, so kannst du Menschen die sich in deinem Themenbereich bewegen suchen und mit ihnen interagieren. In deinem Profil selbst kannst Du Medien, Links oder auch andere Dateien kenntlich machen. Hier packen wir die Reflinks dazu. Ab und an etwas auf LinkedIn teilen: News, Beiträge, Bilder, natürlich immer mit Link - wird Dein Netzwerk wachsen lassen. Du triffst hier genau auf die Menschen deines Interessengebietes und kannst diese gezielt suchen. Die Funktion gleicht fast der von Facebook, Du solltest damit keine Schwierigkeiten bekommen, alles einzurichten und zu bedienen. - wenn doch, schick mir eine Mail oder frag Google ;-) Das Berufsnetzwerk Xing funktioniert ebenso. Hier wird dein Lebenslauf tabellarisch angezeigt und veröffentlicht. Du findest hier Menschen aus allen Bereichen des Lebens, kannst diesen folgen und Dich mit ihnen verknüpfen. Foren und Diskussionsrunden stehen den Nutzern zur Verfügung, ebenso ein Terminkalender für Veranstaltungen. All dies kannst und sollest Du nutzen um deinen Reflink publik zu machen.   Selbstverständlich gibt es noch viele weitere Netzwerke. Habe ich ein Dir bekanntes, wichtiges vergessen? - sags mir mit einem Kommentar unter dem Beitrag! :-)   Teil 2 erscheint bald mit folgenden Punkten: Virale Mailer, Kommentarstrategien, Forenstrategien und Slideshares Teil 2 des Guides ist nun verfügbar - klick

With passive income, you may do a lot of work upfront to setup the passive income system but eventually you'll be able to minimize your participation in those projects and still get paid. Please note that passive income is not considered a one-time lump sum payment, such as a sale of your home or stock, but a source of income that's expected to continue over time. Many successful entrepreneurs understand the significance of passive income and the vital role that it plays in creating financial freedom. In fact, some of the most successful entrepreneurs have multiple streams of passive income so that the money keeps on coming in even when they're focused on other projects. Plus, having multiple streams of passive income also assist with minimizing the risks involved should any one of the income stream fail for any particular reason.
Here at Success Pen Pal, we like to focus on multiple streams of passive income for the reasons mentioned above. One of the best ways to earn multiple streams of passive income is through the Internet. In fact, the Internet is filled with opportunities for earning a quick buck. However, people should note that the amount of money you earn is directly proportional to the amount of time and effort invested. With this in mind, here are some great ideas for making money online:
Blogging:
For those unaware, a blog is short for "weblog" which is a website containing the writer's or group of writers' own experiences, observations, opinions, etc. If you're a passionate closet writer who wants to be published, then blogging might be the right option for you. There are a variety of free blogging platforms out there to select from, such as WordPress, Blogger, and even Tumblr.
To be a successful blogger, people are not required to have extensive technical skills but it's very important that you have expertise in the field that you're writing about. Not only would this attract visitors to your site but also help you build a large following that'll enable you to earn profits by luring advertisers, writing paid reviews, or receiving commissions for promoting other people's products or services.
Affiliate Marketing:
To receive commissions, many bloggers are involved with affiliate marketing in an effort to resell other people's products or services. Please note that an affiliate is a person who receives a predetermined amount of commission from vendors for selling their goods. So if you're good at promoting and selling, then becoming an affiliate marketer might be the right option for you.
The best part about affiliate marketing is that you do not need to own the products. Instead, you could sign up for an affiliate program from other organizations and begin selling products immediately. If you're interested, companies, such as ClickBank and Commission Junction, have a large selection of products and services to select from.
Advertising:
Another option to earn money online is through advertising. People could sell space on their website for advertisements and earn a commission when these ads are clicked by visitors of your site. This is called "pay-per-click (PPC)" advertising and many people use banners and videos for advertising online. Please note that your earning potential depends heavily on the amount of traffic to your site. Some advertising options are Google's AdSense, BidVertiser, Blogads, and Text Link Ads.
Paid Writing:
For others who feel that maintaining a blog is too difficult, you could still indulge in your passion for writing by getting paid to write for others. For instance, you could write articles and blog posts for others using platforms, such as PayPerPost, Helium, and Weblogs. Another option is to become a copywriter or copy editor where you're paid to write copies in an effort to promote products and services. If you have a strong command of languages, you could even become an author writing eBooks for yourself or others.
E-Teaching:
The demand for online tutoring has grown exponentially. If you enjoy helping others learn, then e-teaching might be the right career choice for you. All you would really need to become an online tutor is expertise in your subject matter, along with a few spare hours a week. If you're interested, just enroll on sites, such as TutorVista, SmartThinking, Tutor dot com, and E-Tutor. Once you've gained a good reputation as a coach, opportunities will come pouring in asking for you to assist with lectures, webinars, etc.
Freelancing:
Freelancing is another great career option for professionals who are experts in their respective fields. In gist, freelancers offer bids, ideas, or proposals about a project to buyers and these buyers would select the most suitable freelancer for that particular job. Overall, there are a variety of free websites, such as Fiverr and Enlace, that'll assist with helping freelancers land gigs pertaining to a certain niche or category.
Buying & Selling Domains:
Buying and selling domains is another way to earn money online. The goal is to buy domains at their registration prices, or lower, and then turn around and trade them at a profit. Rather than buying any domain name, it's vital that people conduct adequate research on sites, such as eBay, AfterNic, or any other domain auction site in an effort to get the latest trends on domain names that are selling. One effective approach towards this is to use "terminated domain lists" because they’ll contain several expired names that have been added back into the pool for sale.
Virtual Assistant:
Becoming a virtual assistant is another popular option for earning money online. Many small businesses are in dire need of people that could help them achieve their organizational goals and objectives. Rather than hiring a full-time employee because of a lack of resources, these companies would prefer to hire a virtual assistant instead. As a virtual assistant, you're expected to perform a variety of tasks similar to that of a traditional secretary or assistant. Tasks, such as travel reservations, research, handling expense reimbursements, etc. In essence, your expertise will determine your pay rate and you could also become a virtual assistant on Fiverr and Elance.
Hopefully, this post has provided you with some insight into options for making money online. To learn more about some of the options listed above, please join SuccessPenPal's FREE newsletter where we've helped countless individuals earn multiple streams of passive income online.

An electronic book, also known as an e-book or eBook, is a book publication made available in digital form, consisting of text, images, or both, readable on the flat-panel display of computers or other electronic devices.[1] Although sometimes defined as “an electronic version of a printed book”,[2] some e-books exist without a printed equivalent. E-books can be read on dedicated e-reader devices, but also on any computer device that features a controllable viewing screen, including desktop computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones.
In the 2000s, there was a trend of print and e-book sales moving to the Internet,[citation needed] where readers buy traditional paper books and e-books on websites using e-commerce systems. With print books, readers are increasingly browsing through images of the covers of books on publisher or bookstore websites and selecting and ordering titles online; the paper books are then delivered to the reader by mail or another delivery service. With e-books, users can browse through titles online, and then when they select and order titles, the e-book can be sent to them online or the user can download the e-book.[3] By the early 2010s, e-books had begun to overtake hardcover by overall publication figures in the U.S.[4]
The main reasons for people buying e-books are possibly lower prices, increased comfort (as they can buy from home or on the go with mobile devices) and a larger selection of titles.[5] With e-books, “[e]lectronic bookmarks make referencing easier, and e-book readers may allow the user to annotate pages.” [6] “Although fiction and non-fiction books come in e-book formats, technical material is especially suited for e-book delivery because it can be [electronically] searched” for keywords. In addition, for programming books, code examples can be copied.[6] The amount of e-book reading is increasing in the U.S.; by 2014, 28% of adults had read an e-book, compared to 23% in 2013. This is increasing, because by 2014 50% of American adults had an e-reader or a tablet, compared to 30% owning such devices in 2013.[7] Website monetization is the process of converting existing traffic being sent to a particular website into revenue. The most popular ways of monetizing a website are by implementing pay per click (PPC) and cost per impression (CPI/CPM) advertising. Various ad networks facilitate a webmaster in placing advertisements on pages of the website to benefit from the traffic the site is experiencing.
The two most important metrics that matter to a web publisher looking to monetize their site is “Fill Rate”, or the % of inventory where ads can be shown by a partner advertising network, and eCPM, which is the effective cost per thousand impression dollar amount that is paid out to the publisher for showing ads to their audience.
Additionally, aside from typical ad display and various advertising generated revenue, some webmasters or site owners utilize Lead Generation to monetize Internet traffic to a website by creating leads or inquiries from submission forms or phone calls from interested consumers and then delivering those leads to a business seeking that type of inquiry Pay per click advertising Main article: Pay per click Pay per click (also called Cost per click) is a marketing strategy put in place by search engines and various advertising networks such as Google Ads, where an advertisement, usually targeted by keywords or general topic, is placed on a relevant website or within search engine results. The advertiser then pays for every click that is made on the advertisement. This paid click activity fuels many revenue generating programs such as Google Adsense.
Cost per impression advertising Main article: Cost per impression Cost per impression (also called cost per mille) is a marketing strategy put in place by various advertising networks, where an advert is placed on a relevant website, usually targeted to the content sector of that site. The advertiser then pays for every time the advert is displayed to a user. Most system will use a method known as cost per thousand impressions. If a website publisher charges $4.00 CPM, the advertiser is paying $4.00 for every 1,000 ad impressions (each time the ad is shown 1,000 times).[1] Banner advertising Main article: Web banner Banner advertising consists of placing a graphical banner advertisement on a webpage. The role of this banner is to catch the eye of incoming traffic to the page, enticing readers to click the advertisement. This form of monetization is implemented by both affiliate programs and advertising networks. Banners originally just referred to advertisements of 468 x 60 pixels, but the term is now widely used to refer to all sizes of display advertising on the internet.[2]
Typical web banner, sized 468×60 pixels. Banner ad types Banner ads come in various shapes and sizes and are sized according to pixel dimensions.[3] Typical banner sizes include:
Leaderboard 728 x 90 Banner 468 x 60 Skyscraper 120 x 600 Top cube, NTV (nex to video), IM (instand message) are widely used in 300×250 format Wide Skyscraper 160 x 600[4] Various Banner Ad Networks : BuySellAds.com, Blogads[5] “BING ads by Microsoft”,[6]
Affiliate programs Main article: Affiliate marketing Affiliate programs are another popular way of monetizing existing website traffic. By joining a business’ affiliate program, any searches for products within that business’ catalog may earn affiliates a commission on each sale that was originally referred through their website.
Data monetization Main article: Data monetization Websites also generate valuable user data that can be monetized through various methods. Data generated by websites about their users can range from being demographics to in-market data (e.g. in-market for a car).[7] This data can be sold through behavioral data exchanges and used by advertisers to target their online media campaigns. Websites can also generate revenue from their newsletter and on-site registrations programs by finding companies whom are eager to reach the newsletters subscriber base.[8] Another method of monetizing data is through the use of a surveywall instead of a paywall, asking users to take a short survey, rather than paying the website directly. The website is then paid by the surveywall operator (such as Survata).
Paid subscriptions Paid membership or ‘continuity’ programs are another way to monetize existing traffic. Examples of media membership sites are the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times[9]. In the gaming world, Blizzard’s World of Warcraft has millions of members. However there are many other kinds of member sites that cover niche markets. Often people join to get access to content and expertise, or for community, such as discussion or bulletin boards. The term “continuity” is used because the goal is to develop income continuity. Instead of making a one-time sale of a product or service, the membership site brings new, repeated income every month. Besides news, other kinds of membership site include: health, fitness, marketing, copy writing, social media expertise, paper products, dating, paper crafting, scrap booking, coaching, writing and many other applications.
Experts in the membership site field say that “people come for content and stay for community.”[10] The challenge of a member site is to retain paying members. Some sites, like the New York Times, offers some content free and then charges a fee for more in-depth access, or access to special kinds of content[11]. Some sites offer downloads of audio or video content, free graphics, free software that is only available to members with a Creative Market. Many sites also offer webinars to members. The webinars are often recorded as video, audio and also transcribed, creating more special content that is behind the pay wall.
Fees for membership vary widely. They can be billed monthly, annually, or even lifetime memberships. The digital access to the website is sometimes sold as part of a combination package that also includes physical product. For example, the Wall Street Journal offers a combination paper subscription, which is delivered to the subscriber’s door, combined with access to the website and the smartphone app versions of the paper for about $140. Another site that sells membership to large corporations in the mobile phone industry, charges up to $12,000.00 a year for membership, which gives tech employees the right to pay to attend conferences on different aspects of the technology of cellular phones, and to access, on the website, recordings of past meetings. Business sites may offer a special information package, perhaps CDs or DVDs shipped to the new member as part of a package that includes membership.
Affiliate marketing is sometimes used to build membership in membership sites.[12] Some sites continue to pay a percentage to the referring affiliate as long as the member continues paying monthly fees. Others pay a larger up-front fee. The page that marketers use a marketing or social media “funnel” to bring potential new paying members to is called a “squeeze” page. Structure The industry has four core players:[citation needed]
the merchant (also known as ‘advertiser’ or ‘retailer’ or ‘brand’) the network (that contains offers for the affiliate to choose from and also takes care of the payments) the publisher (also known as ‘the affiliate’) the customer The market has grown in complexity, resulting in the emergence of a secondary tier of players, including affiliate management agencies, super-affiliates, and specialized third party vendors.[citation needed]
Affiliate marketing overlaps with other Internet marketing methods to some degree because affiliates often use regular advertising methods. Those methods include organic search engine optimization (SEO), paid search engine marketing (PPC – Pay Per Click), e-mail marketing, content marketing, and (in some sense) display advertising. On the other hand, affiliates sometimes use less orthodox techniques, such as publishing reviews of products or services offered by a partner.[citation needed]
Affiliate marketing is commonly confused with referral marketing, as both forms of marketing use third parties to drive sales to the retailer. The two forms of marketing are differentiated, however, in how they drive sales, where affiliate marketing relies purely on financial motivations, while referral marketing relies more on trust and personal relationships.[citation needed]
Affiliate marketing is frequently overlooked by advertisers.[6] While search engines, e-mail, and web site syndication capture much of the attention of online retailers, affiliate marketing carries a much lower profile. Still, affiliates continue to play a significant role in e-retailers’ marketing strategies.[citation needed]
History Origin The concept of revenue sharing—paying commission for referred business—predates affiliate marketing and the Internet. The translation of the revenue share principles to mainstream e-commerce happened in November 1994,[7] almost four years after the origination of the World Wide Web.
The concept of affiliate marketing on the Internet was conceived of, put into practice and patented by William J. Tobin, the founder of PC Flowers & Gifts. Launched on the Prodigy Network in 1989, PC Flowers & Gifts remained on the service until 1996. By 1993, PC Flowers & Gifts generated sales in excess of $6 million per year on the Prodigy service. In 1998, PC Flowers and Gifts developed the business model of paying a commission on sales to the Prodigy Network.[8][9]
In 1994, Tobin launched a beta version of PC Flowers & Gifts on the Internet in cooperation with IBM, who owned half of Prodigy.[10] By 1995 PC Flowers & Gifts had launched a commercial version of the website and had 2,600 affiliate marketing partners on the World Wide Web. Tobin applied for a patent on tracking and affiliate marketing on January 22, 1996, and was issued U.S. Patent number 6,141,666 on Oct 31, 2000. Tobin also received Japanese Patent number 4021941 on Oct 5, 2007, and U.S. Patent number 7,505,913 on Mar 17, 2009, for affiliate marketing and tracking.[11] In July 1998 PC Flowers and Gifts merged with Fingerhut and Federated Department Stores.[12]
In November 1994, CDNow launched its BuyWeb program. CDNow had the idea that music-oriented websites could review or list albums on their pages that their visitors might be interested in purchasing. These websites could also offer a link that would take visitors directly to CDNow to purchase the albums. The idea for remote purchasing originally arose from conversations with music label Geffen Records in the fall of 1994. The management at Geffen wanted to sell its artists’ CD’s directly from its website but did not want to implement this capability itself. Geffen asked CDNow if it could design a program where CDNow would handle the order fulfillment. Geffen realized that CDNow could link directly from the artist on its website to Geffen’s website, bypassing the CDNow home page and going directly to an artist’s music page.[13]
Amazon.com (Amazon) launched its associate program in July 1996: Amazon associates could place banner or text links on their site for individual books, or link directly to the Amazon home page.[14]
When visitors clicked on the associate’s website to go to Amazon and purchase a book, the associate received a commission. Amazon was not the first merchant to offer an affiliate program, but its program was the first to become widely known and serve as a model for subsequent programs.[15][16]
In February 2000, Amazon announced that it had been granted a patent[17] on components of an affiliate program. The patent application was submitted in June 1997, which predates most affiliate programs, but not PC Flowers & Gifts.com (October 1994), AutoWeb.com (October 1995), Kbkids.com/BrainPlay.com (January 1996), EPage (April 1996), and several others.[18]
Historic development Affiliate marketing has grown quickly since its inception. The e-commerce website, viewed as a marketing toy in the early days of the Internet, became an integrated part of the overall business plan and in some cases grew to a bigger business than the existing offline business. According to one report, the total sales amount generated through affiliate networks in 2006 was £2.16 billion in the United Kingdom alone. The estimates were £1.35 billion in sales in 2005.[19] MarketingSherpa’s research team estimated that, in 2006, affiliates worldwide earned US$6.5 billion in bounty and commissions from a variety of sources in retail, personal finance, gaming and gambling, travel, telecom, education, publishing, and forms of lead generation other than contextual advertising programs.[20]
In 2006, the most active sectors for affiliate marketing were the adult gambling, retail industries and file-sharing services.[21]:149–150 The three sectors expected to experience the greatest growth are the mobile phone, finance, and travel sectors.[21] Soon after these sectors came the entertainment (particularly gaming) and Internet-related services (particularly broadband) sectors. Also several of the affiliate solution providers expect to see increased interest from business-to-business marketers and advertisers in using affiliate marketing as part of their mix.[21]:149–150
Web 2.0 Websites and services based on Web 2.0 concepts—blogging and interactive online communities, for example—have impacted the affiliate marketing world as well. These platforms allow improved communication between merchants and affiliates. Web 2.0 platforms have also opened affiliate marketing channels to personal bloggers, writers, and independent website owners. Contextual ads allow publishers with lower levels of web traffic to place affiliate ads on websites.[citation needed]
Forms of new media have also diversified how companies, brands, and ad networks serve ads to visitors. For instance, YouTube allows video-makers to embed advertisements through Google’s affiliate network.[citation needed] New developments have made it more difficult for unscrupulous affiliates to make money. Emerging black sheep are detected and made known to the affiliate marketing community with much greater speed and efficiency.[citation needed]
Compensation methods Main article: Compensation methods Predominant compensation methods Eighty percent of affiliate programs today use revenue sharing or pay per sale (PPS) as a compensation method, nineteen percent use cost per action (CPA), and the remaining programs use other methods such as cost per click (CPC) or cost per mille (CPM, cost per estimated 1000 views).[22]
Diminished compensation methods Within more mature markets, less than one percent of traditional affiliate marketing programs today use cost per click and cost per mille. However, these compensation methods are used heavily in display advertising and paid search.
Cost per mille requires only that the publisher make the advertising available on his or her website and display it to the page visitors in order to receive a commission. Pay per click requires one additional step in the conversion process to generate revenue for the publisher: A visitor must not only be made aware of the advertisement but must also click on the advertisement to visit the advertiser’s website.
Cost per click was more common in the early days of affiliate marketing but has diminished in use over time due to click fraud issues very similar to the click fraud issues modern search engines are facing today. Contextual advertising programs are not considered in the statistic pertaining to the diminished use of cost per click, as it is uncertain if contextual advertising can be considered affiliate marketing.
While these models have diminished in mature e-commerce and online advertising markets they are still prevalent in some more nascent industries. China is one example where Affiliate Marketing does not overtly resemble the same model in the West. With many affiliates being paid a flat “Cost Per Day” with some networks offering Cost Per Click or CPM.
Performance/affiliate marketing In the case of cost per mille/click, the publisher is not concerned about whether a visitor is a member of the audience that the advertiser tries to attract and is able to convert because at this point the publisher has already earned his commission. This leaves the greater, and, in case of cost per mille, the full risk and loss (if the visitor cannot be converted) to the advertiser.
Cost per action/sale methods require that referred visitors do more than visit the advertiser’s website before the affiliate receives a commission. The advertiser must convert that visitor first. It is in the best interest of the affiliate to send the most closely targeted traffic to the advertiser as possible to increase the chance of a conversion. The risk and loss are shared between the affiliate and the advertiser.
Affiliate marketing is also called “performance marketing”, in reference to how sales employees are typically being compensated. Such employees are typically paid a commission for each sale they close, and sometimes are paid performance incentives for exceeding objectives.[23] Affiliates are not employed by the advertiser whose products or services they promote, but the compensation models applied to affiliate marketing are very similar to the ones used for people in the advertisers’ internal sales department.
The phrase, “Affiliates are an extended sales force for your business”, which is often used to explain affiliate marketing, is not completely accurate. The primary difference between the two is that affiliate marketers provide little if any influence on a possible prospect in the conversion process once that prospect is directed to the advertiser’s website. The sales team of the advertiser, however, does have the control and influence up to the point where the prospect either a) signs the contract, or b) completes the purchase.
Multi-tier programs Some advertisers offer multi-tier programs that distribute commission into a hierarchical referral network of sign-ups and sub-partners. In practical terms, publisher “A” signs up to the program with an advertiser and gets rewarded for the agreed activity conducted by a referred visitor. If publisher “A” attracts publishers “B” and “C” to sign up for the same program using his sign-up code, all future activities performed by publishers “B” and “C” will result in additional commission (at a lower rate) for publisher “A”.
Two-tier programs exist in the minority of affiliate programs; most are simply one-tier. Referral programs beyond two-tier resemble multi-level marketing (MLM) or network marketing but are different: Multi-level marketing (MLM) or network marketing associations tend to have more complex commission requirements/qualifications than standard affiliate programs.[citation needed]
From the advertiser’s perspective Advantages for merchants Merchants favor affiliate marketing because in most cases it uses a “pay for performance” model, meaning that the merchant does not incur a marketing expense unless results are accrued (excluding any initial setup cost).[24]
Implementation options Some merchants run their own (in-house) affiliate programs using dedicated software, while others use third-party intermediaries to track traffic or sales that are referred from affiliates. There are two different types of affiliate management methods used by merchants: standalone software or hosted services, typically called affiliate networks. Payouts to affiliates or publishers can be made by the networks on behalf of the merchant, by the network, consolidated across all merchants where the publisher has a relationship with and earned commissions or directly by the merchant itself.
Affiliate management and program management outsourcing Uncontrolled affiliate programs aid rogue affiliates, who use spamming,[25] trademark infringement, false advertising, cookie stuffing, typosquatting,[26] and other unethical methods that have given affiliate marketing a negative reputation.
Some merchants are using outsourced (affiliate) program management (OPM) companies, which are themselves often run by affiliate managers and network program managers.[27] OPM companies perform affiliate program management for the merchants as a service, similar to the role an advertising agencies serves in offline marketing.
Types of affiliate websites
This section possibly contains original research. Please improve it by verifying the claims made and adding inline citations. Statements consisting only of original research should be removed. (February 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) Affiliate websites are often categorized by merchants (advertisers) and affiliate networks. There are currently no industry-wide standards for the categorization. The following types of websites are generic, yet are commonly understood and used by affiliate marketers.
Search affiliates that utilize pay per click search engines to promote the advertisers’ offers (i.e., search arbitrage) Price comparison service websites and directories Loyalty websites, typically characterized by providing a reward or incentive system for purchases via points, miles, cash back Cause Related Marketing sites that offer charitable donations Coupon and rebate websites that focus on sales promotions Content and niche market websites, including product review sites Personal websites Weblogs and websites syndication feeds E-mail marketing list affiliates (i.e., owners of large opt-in -mail lists that typically employ e-mail drip marketing) and newsletter list affiliates, which are typically more content-heavy Registration path or co-registration affiliates who include offers from other merchants during the registration process on their own website Shopping directories that list merchants by categories without providing coupons, price comparisons, or other features based on information that changes frequently, thus requiring continual updates Cost per action networks (i.e., top-tier affiliates) that expose offers from the advertiser with which they are affiliated with their own network of affiliates Websites using adbars (e.g. AdSense) to display context-sensitive advertising for products on the site Virtual currency that offers advertising views in exchange for a handout of virtual currency in a game or other virtual platform. File-Sharing: Web sites that host directories of music, movies, games and other software. Users upload content to file-hosting sites and then post descriptions of the material and their download links on directory sites. Uploaders are paid by the file-hosting sites based on the number of times their files are downloaded. The file-hosting sites sell premium download access to the files to the general public. The websites that host the directory services sell advertising and do not host the files themselves. Video sharing websites: YouTube videos are often utilized by affiliates to do affiliate marketing. A person would create a video and place a link to the affiliate product they are promoting in the video itself and within the description. Publisher recruitment Affiliate networks that already have several advertisers typically also have a large pool of publishers. These publishers could be potentially recruited, and there is also an increased chance that publishers in the network apply to the program on their own, without the need for recruitment efforts by the advertiser.
Relevant websites that attract the same target audiences as the advertiser but without competing with it are potential affiliate partners as well. Vendors or existing customers can also become recruits if doing so makes sense and does not violate any laws or regulations (such as with pyramid schemes).
Almost any website could be recruited as an affiliate publisher, but high traffic websites are more likely interested in (for their sake) low-risk cost per mille or medium-risk cost per click deals rather than higher-risk cost per action or revenue share deals.[28]
Locating affiliate programs There are three primary ways to locate affiliate programs for a target website:
Affiliate program directories, Large affiliate networks that provide the platform for dozens or even hundreds of advertisers, and The target website itself. (Websites that offer an affiliate program often have a link titled “affiliate program”, “affiliates”, “referral program”, or “webmasters”—usually in the footer or “About” section of the website.) If the above locations do not yield information pertaining to affiliates, it may be the case that there exists a non-public affiliate program. Utilizing one of the common website correlation methods may provide clues about the affiliate network. The most definitive method for finding this information is to contact the website owner directly if a contact method can be located.
Past and current issues Since the emergence of affiliate marketing, there has been little control over affiliate activity. Unscrupulous affiliates have used spam, false advertising, forced clicks (to get tracking cookies set on users’ computers), adware, and other methods to drive traffic to their sponsors. Although many affiliate programs have terms of service that contain rules against spam, this marketing method has historically proven to attract abuse from spammers.
E-mail spam In the infancy of affiliate marketing, many Internet users held negative opinions due to the tendency of affiliates to use spam to promote the programs in which they were enrolled.[29] As affiliate marketing matured, many affiliate merchants have refined their terms and conditions to prohibit affiliates from spamming.
Malicious browser extensions A browser extension is a plug-in that extends the functionality of a web browser. Some extensions are authored using web technologies such as HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. Most modern web browsers have a whole slew of third-party extensions available for download. In recent years, there has been a constant rise in the number of malicious browser extensions flooding the web. Malicious browser extensions will often appear to be legitimate as they seem to originate from vendor websites and come with glowing customer reviews.[30] In the case of affiliate marketing, these malicious extensions are often used to redirect a user’s browser to send fake clicks to websites that are supposedly part of legitimate affiliate marketing programs. Typically, users are completely unaware this is happening other than their browser performance slowing down. Websites end up paying for fake traffic numbers, and users are unwitting participants in these ad schemes.
Search engine spam As search engines have become more prominent, some affiliate marketers have shifted from sending e-mail spam to creating automatically generated web pages that often contain product data feeds provided by merchants. The goal of such web pages is to manipulate the relevancy or prominence of resources indexed by a search engine, also known as spamdexing. Each page can be targeted to a different niche market through the use of specific keywords, with the result being a skewed form of search engine optimization.
Spam is the biggest threat to organic search engines, whose goal is to provide quality search results for keywords or phrases entered by their users. Google’s PageRank algorithm update (“BigDaddy”) in February 2006—the final stage of Google’s major update (“Jagger”) that began in mid-summer 2005—specifically targeted spamdexing with great success. This update thus enabled Google to remove a large amount of mostly computer-generated duplicate content from its index.[31]
Websites consisting mostly of affiliate links have previously held a negative reputation for underdelivering quality content. In 2005 there were active changes made by Google, where certain websites were labeled as “thin affiliates”.[32] Such websites were either removed from Google’s index or were relocated within the results page (i.e., moved from the top-most results to a lower position). To avoid this categorization, affiliate marketer webmasters must create quality content on their websites that distinguishes their work from the work of spammers or banner farms, which only contain links leading to merchant sites.
Adware Although it differs from spyware, adware often uses the same methods and technologies. Merchants initially were uninformed about adware, what impact it had, and how it could damage their brands. Affiliate marketers became aware of the issue much more quickly, especially because they noticed that adware often overwrites tracking cookies, thus resulting in a decline of commissions. Affiliates not employing adware felt that it was stealing commission from them. Adware often has no valuable purpose and rarely provides any useful content to the user, who is typically unaware that such software is installed on his/her computer.
Affiliates discussed the issues in Internet forums and began to organize their efforts. They believed that the best way to address the problem was to discourage merchants from advertising via adware. Merchants that were either indifferent to or supportive of adware were exposed by affiliates, thus damaging those merchants’ reputations and tarnishing their affiliate marketing efforts. Many affiliates either terminated the use of such merchants or switched to a competitor’s affiliate program. Eventually, affiliate networks were also forced by merchants and affiliates to take a stand and ban certain adware publishers from their network. The result was Code of Conduct by Commission Junction/beFree and Performics,[33] LinkShare’s Anti-Predatory Advertising Addendum,[34] and ShareASale’s complete ban of software applications as a medium for affiliates to promote advertiser offers.[35] Regardless of the progress made, adware continues to be an issue, as demonstrated by the class action lawsuit against ValueClick and its daughter company Commission Junction filed on April 20, 2007.[36]
Trademark bidding Affiliates were among the earliest adopters of pay per click advertising when the first pay-per-click search engines emerged during the end of the 1990s. Later in 2000 Google launched its pay per click service, Google AdWords, which is responsible for the widespread use and acceptance of pay per click as an advertising channel. An increasing number of merchants engaged in pay per click advertising, either directly or via a search marketing agency, and realized that this space was already occupied by their affiliates. Although this situation alone created advertising channel conflicts and debates between advertisers and affiliates, the largest issue concerned affiliates bidding on advertisers names, brands, and trademarks.[37] Several advertisers began to adjust their affiliate program terms to prohibit their affiliates from bidding on those type of keywords. Some advertisers, however, did and still do embrace this behavior, going so far as to allow, or even encourage, affiliates to bid on any term, including the advertiser’s trademarks.
Compensation disclosure Bloggers and other publishers may not be aware of disclosure guidelines set forth by the FTC. Guidelines affect celebrity endorsements, advertising language, and blogger compensation.[38]
Lack of industry standards Certification and training Affiliate marketing currently lacks industry standards for training and certification. There are some training courses and seminars that result in certifications; however, the acceptance of such certifications is mostly due to the reputation of the individual or company issuing the certification. Affiliate marketing is not commonly taught in universities, and only a few college instructors work with Internet marketers to introduce the subject to students majoring in marketing.[39]
Education occurs most often in “real life” by becoming involved and learning the details as time progresses. Although there are several books on the topic, some so-called “how-to” or “silver bullet” books instruct readers to manipulate holes in the Google algorithm, which can quickly become out of date,[39] or suggest strategies no longer endorsed or permitted by advertisers.[citation needed]
Outsourced Program Management companies typically combine formal and informal training, providing much of their training through group collaboration and brainstorming. Such companies also try to send each marketing employee to the industry conference of their choice.[40]
Other training resources used include online forums, weblogs, podcasts, video seminars, and specialty websites.
Code of conduct A code of conduct was released by affiliate networks Commission Junction/beFree and Performics in December 2002 to guide practices and adherence to ethical standards for online advertising.
Sales tax vulnerability In 2008 the state of New York passed a law asserting sales tax jurisdiction over Amazon.com sales to New York residents. New York was aware of Amazon affiliates operating within the state. In Quill Corp. v. North Dakota, the US Supreme Court ruled that the presence of independent sales representatives may allow a state to require sales tax collections. New York determined that affiliates are such independent sales representatives. The New York law became known as “Amazon’s law” and was quickly emulated by other states.[41] While that was the first time states successfully addressed the internet tax gap, since 2018 states have been free to assert sales tax jurisdiction over sales to their residents regardless of the presence of retailer affiliates.[42]

An electronic book, also known as an e-book or eBook, is a book publication made available in digital form, consisting of text, images, or both, readable on the flat-panel display of computers or other electronic devices.[1] Although sometimes defined as “an electronic version of a printed book”,[2] some e-books exist without a printed equivalent. E-books can be read on dedicated e-reader devices, but also on any computer device that features a controllable viewing screen, including desktop computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones.
In the 2000s, there was a trend of print and e-book sales moving to the Internet,[citation needed] where readers buy traditional paper books and e-books on websites using e-commerce systems. With print books, readers are increasingly browsing through images of the covers of books on publisher or bookstore websites and selecting and ordering titles online; the paper books are then delivered to the reader by mail or another delivery service. With e-books, users can browse through titles online, and then when they select and order titles, the e-book can be sent to them online or the user can download the e-book.[3] By the early 2010s, e-books had begun to overtake hardcover by overall publication figures in the U.S.[4]
The main reasons for people buying e-books are possibly lower prices, increased comfort (as they can buy from home or on the go with mobile devices) and a larger selection of titles.[5] With e-books, “[e]lectronic bookmarks make referencing easier, and e-book readers may allow the user to annotate pages.” [6] “Although fiction and non-fiction books come in e-book formats, technical material is especially suited for e-book delivery because it can be [electronically] searched” for keywords. In addition, for programming books, code examples can be copied.[6] The amount of e-book reading is increasing in the U.S.; by 2014, 28% of adults had read an e-book, compared to 23% in 2013. This is increasing, because by 2014 50% of American adults had an e-reader or a tablet, compared to 30% owning such devices in 2013.[7] Website monetization is the process of converting existing traffic being sent to a particular website into revenue. The most popular ways of monetizing a website are by implementing pay per click (PPC) and cost per impression (CPI/CPM) advertising. Various ad networks facilitate a webmaster in placing advertisements on pages of the website to benefit from the traffic the site is experiencing.
The two most important metrics that matter to a web publisher looking to monetize their site is “Fill Rate”, or the % of inventory where ads can be shown by a partner advertising network, and eCPM, which is the effective cost per thousand impression dollar amount that is paid out to the publisher for showing ads to their audience.
Additionally, aside from typical ad display and various advertising generated revenue, some webmasters or site owners utilize Lead Generation to monetize Internet traffic to a website by creating leads or inquiries from submission forms or phone calls from interested consumers and then delivering those leads to a business seeking that type of inquiry Pay per click advertising Main article: Pay per click Pay per click (also called Cost per click) is a marketing strategy put in place by search engines and various advertising networks such as Google Ads, where an advertisement, usually targeted by keywords or general topic, is placed on a relevant website or within search engine results. The advertiser then pays for every click that is made on the advertisement. This paid click activity fuels many revenue generating programs such as Google Adsense.
Cost per impression advertising Main article: Cost per impression Cost per impression (also called cost per mille) is a marketing strategy put in place by various advertising networks, where an advert is placed on a relevant website, usually targeted to the content sector of that site. The advertiser then pays for every time the advert is displayed to a user. Most system will use a method known as cost per thousand impressions. If a website publisher charges $4.00 CPM, the advertiser is paying $4.00 for every 1,000 ad impressions (each time the ad is shown 1,000 times).[1] Banner advertising Main article: Web banner Banner advertising consists of placing a graphical banner advertisement on a webpage. The role of this banner is to catch the eye of incoming traffic to the page, enticing readers to click the advertisement. This form of monetization is implemented by both affiliate programs and advertising networks. Banners originally just referred to advertisements of 468 x 60 pixels, but the term is now widely used to refer to all sizes of display advertising on the internet.[2]
Typical web banner, sized 468×60 pixels. Banner ad types Banner ads come in various shapes and sizes and are sized according to pixel dimensions.[3] Typical banner sizes include:
Leaderboard 728 x 90 Banner 468 x 60 Skyscraper 120 x 600 Top cube, NTV (nex to video), IM (instand message) are widely used in 300×250 format Wide Skyscraper 160 x 600[4] Various Banner Ad Networks : BuySellAds.com, Blogads[5] “BING ads by Microsoft”,[6]
Affiliate programs Main article: Affiliate marketing Affiliate programs are another popular way of monetizing existing website traffic. By joining a business’ affiliate program, any searches for products within that business’ catalog may earn affiliates a commission on each sale that was originally referred through their website.
Data monetization Main article: Data monetization Websites also generate valuable user data that can be monetized through various methods. Data generated by websites about their users can range from being demographics to in-market data (e.g. in-market for a car).[7] This data can be sold through behavioral data exchanges and used by advertisers to target their online media campaigns. Websites can also generate revenue from their newsletter and on-site registrations programs by finding companies whom are eager to reach the newsletters subscriber base.[8] Another method of monetizing data is through the use of a surveywall instead of a paywall, asking users to take a short survey, rather than paying the website directly. The website is then paid by the surveywall operator (such as Survata).
Paid subscriptions Paid membership or ‘continuity’ programs are another way to monetize existing traffic. Examples of media membership sites are the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times[9]. In the gaming world, Blizzard’s World of Warcraft has millions of members. However there are many other kinds of member sites that cover niche markets. Often people join to get access to content and expertise, or for community, such as discussion or bulletin boards. The term “continuity” is used because the goal is to develop income continuity. Instead of making a one-time sale of a product or service, the membership site brings new, repeated income every month. Besides news, other kinds of membership site include: health, fitness, marketing, copy writing, social media expertise, paper products, dating, paper crafting, scrap booking, coaching, writing and many other applications.
Experts in the membership site field say that “people come for content and stay for community.”[10] The challenge of a member site is to retain paying members. Some sites, like the New York Times, offers some content free and then charges a fee for more in-depth access, or access to special kinds of content[11]. Some sites offer downloads of audio or video content, free graphics, free software that is only available to members with a Creative Market. Many sites also offer webinars to members. The webinars are often recorded as video, audio and also transcribed, creating more special content that is behind the pay wall.
Fees for membership vary widely. They can be billed monthly, annually, or even lifetime memberships. The digital access to the website is sometimes sold as part of a combination package that also includes physical product. For example, the Wall Street Journal offers a combination paper subscription, which is delivered to the subscriber’s door, combined with access to the website and the smartphone app versions of the paper for about $140. Another site that sells membership to large corporations in the mobile phone industry, charges up to $12,000.00 a year for membership, which gives tech employees the right to pay to attend conferences on different aspects of the technology of cellular phones, and to access, on the website, recordings of past meetings. Business sites may offer a special information package, perhaps CDs or DVDs shipped to the new member as part of a package that includes membership.
Affiliate marketing is sometimes used to build membership in membership sites.[12] Some sites continue to pay a percentage to the referring affiliate as long as the member continues paying monthly fees. Others pay a larger up-front fee. The page that marketers use a marketing or social media “funnel” to bring potential new paying members to is called a “squeeze” page. Structure The industry has four core players:[citation needed]
the merchant (also known as ‘advertiser’ or ‘retailer’ or ‘brand’) the network (that contains offers for the affiliate to choose from and also takes care of the payments) the publisher (also known as ‘the affiliate’) the customer The market has grown in complexity, resulting in the emergence of a secondary tier of players, including affiliate management agencies, super-affiliates, and specialized third party vendors.[citation needed]
Affiliate marketing overlaps with other Internet marketing methods to some degree because affiliates often use regular advertising methods. Those methods include organic search engine optimization (SEO), paid search engine marketing (PPC – Pay Per Click), e-mail marketing, content marketing, and (in some sense) display advertising. On the other hand, affiliates sometimes use less orthodox techniques, such as publishing reviews of products or services offered by a partner.[citation needed]
Affiliate marketing is commonly confused with referral marketing, as both forms of marketing use third parties to drive sales to the retailer. The two forms of marketing are differentiated, however, in how they drive sales, where affiliate marketing relies purely on financial motivations, while referral marketing relies more on trust and personal relationships.[citation needed]
Affiliate marketing is frequently overlooked by advertisers.[6] While search engines, e-mail, and web site syndication capture much of the attention of online retailers, affiliate marketing carries a much lower profile. Still, affiliates continue to play a significant role in e-retailers’ marketing strategies.[citation needed]
History Origin The concept of revenue sharing—paying commission for referred business—predates affiliate marketing and the Internet. The translation of the revenue share principles to mainstream e-commerce happened in November 1994,[7] almost four years after the origination of the World Wide Web.
The concept of affiliate marketing on the Internet was conceived of, put into practice and patented by William J. Tobin, the founder of PC Flowers & Gifts. Launched on the Prodigy Network in 1989, PC Flowers & Gifts remained on the service until 1996. By 1993, PC Flowers & Gifts generated sales in excess of $6 million per year on the Prodigy service. In 1998, PC Flowers and Gifts developed the business model of paying a commission on sales to the Prodigy Network.[8][9]
In 1994, Tobin launched a beta version of PC Flowers & Gifts on the Internet in cooperation with IBM, who owned half of Prodigy.[10] By 1995 PC Flowers & Gifts had launched a commercial version of the website and had 2,600 affiliate marketing partners on the World Wide Web. Tobin applied for a patent on tracking and affiliate marketing on January 22, 1996, and was issued U.S. Patent number 6,141,666 on Oct 31, 2000. Tobin also received Japanese Patent number 4021941 on Oct 5, 2007, and U.S. Patent number 7,505,913 on Mar 17, 2009, for affiliate marketing and tracking.[11] In July 1998 PC Flowers and Gifts merged with Fingerhut and Federated Department Stores.[12]
In November 1994, CDNow launched its BuyWeb program. CDNow had the idea that music-oriented websites could review or list albums on their pages that their visitors might be interested in purchasing. These websites could also offer a link that would take visitors directly to CDNow to purchase the albums. The idea for remote purchasing originally arose from conversations with music label Geffen Records in the fall of 1994. The management at Geffen wanted to sell its artists’ CD’s directly from its website but did not want to implement this capability itself. Geffen asked CDNow if it could design a program where CDNow would handle the order fulfillment. Geffen realized that CDNow could link directly from the artist on its website to Geffen’s website, bypassing the CDNow home page and going directly to an artist’s music page.[13]
Amazon.com (Amazon) launched its associate program in July 1996: Amazon associates could place banner or text links on their site for individual books, or link directly to the Amazon home page.[14]
When visitors clicked on the associate’s website to go to Amazon and purchase a book, the associate received a commission. Amazon was not the first merchant to offer an affiliate program, but its program was the first to become widely known and serve as a model for subsequent programs.[15][16]
In February 2000, Amazon announced that it had been granted a patent[17] on components of an affiliate program. The patent application was submitted in June 1997, which predates most affiliate programs, but not PC Flowers & Gifts.com (October 1994), AutoWeb.com (October 1995), Kbkids.com/BrainPlay.com (January 1996), EPage (April 1996), and several others.[18]
Historic development Affiliate marketing has grown quickly since its inception. The e-commerce website, viewed as a marketing toy in the early days of the Internet, became an integrated part of the overall business plan and in some cases grew to a bigger business than the existing offline business. According to one report, the total sales amount generated through affiliate networks in 2006 was £2.16 billion in the United Kingdom alone. The estimates were £1.35 billion in sales in 2005.[19] MarketingSherpa’s research team estimated that, in 2006, affiliates worldwide earned US$6.5 billion in bounty and commissions from a variety of sources in retail, personal finance, gaming and gambling, travel, telecom, education, publishing, and forms of lead generation other than contextual advertising programs.[20]
In 2006, the most active sectors for affiliate marketing were the adult gambling, retail industries and file-sharing services.[21]:149–150 The three sectors expected to experience the greatest growth are the mobile phone, finance, and travel sectors.[21] Soon after these sectors came the entertainment (particularly gaming) and Internet-related services (particularly broadband) sectors. Also several of the affiliate solution providers expect to see increased interest from business-to-business marketers and advertisers in using affiliate marketing as part of their mix.[21]:149–150
Web 2.0 Websites and services based on Web 2.0 concepts—blogging and interactive online communities, for example—have impacted the affiliate marketing world as well. These platforms allow improved communication between merchants and affiliates. Web 2.0 platforms have also opened affiliate marketing channels to personal bloggers, writers, and independent website owners. Contextual ads allow publishers with lower levels of web traffic to place affiliate ads on websites.[citation needed]
Forms of new media have also diversified how companies, brands, and ad networks serve ads to visitors. For instance, YouTube allows video-makers to embed advertisements through Google’s affiliate network.[citation needed] New developments have made it more difficult for unscrupulous affiliates to make money. Emerging black sheep are detected and made known to the affiliate marketing community with much greater speed and efficiency.[citation needed]
Compensation methods Main article: Compensation methods Predominant compensation methods Eighty percent of affiliate programs today use revenue sharing or pay per sale (PPS) as a compensation method, nineteen percent use cost per action (CPA), and the remaining programs use other methods such as cost per click (CPC) or cost per mille (CPM, cost per estimated 1000 views).[22]
Diminished compensation methods Within more mature markets, less than one percent of traditional affiliate marketing programs today use cost per click and cost per mille. However, these compensation methods are used heavily in display advertising and paid search.
Cost per mille requires only that the publisher make the advertising available on his or her website and display it to the page visitors in order to receive a commission. Pay per click requires one additional step in the conversion process to generate revenue for the publisher: A visitor must not only be made aware of the advertisement but must also click on the advertisement to visit the advertiser’s website.
Cost per click was more common in the early days of affiliate marketing but has diminished in use over time due to click fraud issues very similar to the click fraud issues modern search engines are facing today. Contextual advertising programs are not considered in the statistic pertaining to the diminished use of cost per click, as it is uncertain if contextual advertising can be considered affiliate marketing.
While these models have diminished in mature e-commerce and online advertising markets they are still prevalent in some more nascent industries. China is one example where Affiliate Marketing does not overtly resemble the same model in the West. With many affiliates being paid a flat “Cost Per Day” with some networks offering Cost Per Click or CPM.
Performance/affiliate marketing In the case of cost per mille/click, the publisher is not concerned about whether a visitor is a member of the audience that the advertiser tries to attract and is able to convert because at this point the publisher has already earned his commission. This leaves the greater, and, in case of cost per mille, the full risk and loss (if the visitor cannot be converted) to the advertiser.
Cost per action/sale methods require that referred visitors do more than visit the advertiser’s website before the affiliate receives a commission. The advertiser must convert that visitor first. It is in the best interest of the affiliate to send the most closely targeted traffic to the advertiser as possible to increase the chance of a conversion. The risk and loss are shared between the affiliate and the advertiser.
Affiliate marketing is also called “performance marketing”, in reference to how sales employees are typically being compensated. Such employees are typically paid a commission for each sale they close, and sometimes are paid performance incentives for exceeding objectives.[23] Affiliates are not employed by the advertiser whose products or services they promote, but the compensation models applied to affiliate marketing are very similar to the ones used for people in the advertisers’ internal sales department.
The phrase, “Affiliates are an extended sales force for your business”, which is often used to explain affiliate marketing, is not completely accurate. The primary difference between the two is that affiliate marketers provide little if any influence on a possible prospect in the conversion process once that prospect is directed to the advertiser’s website. The sales team of the advertiser, however, does have the control and influence up to the point where the prospect either a) signs the contract, or b) completes the purchase.
Multi-tier programs Some advertisers offer multi-tier programs that distribute commission into a hierarchical referral network of sign-ups and sub-partners. In practical terms, publisher “A” signs up to the program with an advertiser and gets rewarded for the agreed activity conducted by a referred visitor. If publisher “A” attracts publishers “B” and “C” to sign up for the same program using his sign-up code, all future activities performed by publishers “B” and “C” will result in additional commission (at a lower rate) for publisher “A”.
Two-tier programs exist in the minority of affiliate programs; most are simply one-tier. Referral programs beyond two-tier resemble multi-level marketing (MLM) or network marketing but are different: Multi-level marketing (MLM) or network marketing associations tend to have more complex commission requirements/qualifications than standard affiliate programs.[citation needed]
From the advertiser’s perspective Advantages for merchants Merchants favor affiliate marketing because in most cases it uses a “pay for performance” model, meaning that the merchant does not incur a marketing expense unless results are accrued (excluding any initial setup cost).[24]
Implementation options Some merchants run their own (in-house) affiliate programs using dedicated software, while others use third-party intermediaries to track traffic or sales that are referred from affiliates. There are two different types of affiliate management methods used by merchants: standalone software or hosted services, typically called affiliate networks. Payouts to affiliates or publishers can be made by the networks on behalf of the merchant, by the network, consolidated across all merchants where the publisher has a relationship with and earned commissions or directly by the merchant itself.
Affiliate management and program management outsourcing Uncontrolled affiliate programs aid rogue affiliates, who use spamming,[25] trademark infringement, false advertising, cookie stuffing, typosquatting,[26] and other unethical methods that have given affiliate marketing a negative reputation.
Some merchants are using outsourced (affiliate) program management (OPM) companies, which are themselves often run by affiliate managers and network program managers.[27] OPM companies perform affiliate program management for the merchants as a service, similar to the role an advertising agencies serves in offline marketing.
Types of affiliate websites
This section possibly contains original research. Please improve it by verifying the claims made and adding inline citations. Statements consisting only of original research should be removed. (February 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) Affiliate websites are often categorized by merchants (advertisers) and affiliate networks. There are currently no industry-wide standards for the categorization. The following types of websites are generic, yet are commonly understood and used by affiliate marketers.
Search affiliates that utilize pay per click search engines to promote the advertisers’ offers (i.e., search arbitrage) Price comparison service websites and directories Loyalty websites, typically characterized by providing a reward or incentive system for purchases via points, miles, cash back Cause Related Marketing sites that offer charitable donations Coupon and rebate websites that focus on sales promotions Content and niche market websites, including product review sites Personal websites Weblogs and websites syndication feeds E-mail marketing list affiliates (i.e., owners of large opt-in -mail lists that typically employ e-mail drip marketing) and newsletter list affiliates, which are typically more content-heavy Registration path or co-registration affiliates who include offers from other merchants during the registration process on their own website Shopping directories that list merchants by categories without providing coupons, price comparisons, or other features based on information that changes frequently, thus requiring continual updates Cost per action networks (i.e., top-tier affiliates) that expose offers from the advertiser with which they are affiliated with their own network of affiliates Websites using adbars (e.g. AdSense) to display context-sensitive advertising for products on the site Virtual currency that offers advertising views in exchange for a handout of virtual currency in a game or other virtual platform. File-Sharing: Web sites that host directories of music, movies, games and other software. Users upload content to file-hosting sites and then post descriptions of the material and their download links on directory sites. Uploaders are paid by the file-hosting sites based on the number of times their files are downloaded. The file-hosting sites sell premium download access to the files to the general public. The websites that host the directory services sell advertising and do not host the files themselves. Video sharing websites: YouTube videos are often utilized by affiliates to do affiliate marketing. A person would create a video and place a link to the affiliate product they are promoting in the video itself and within the description. Publisher recruitment Affiliate networks that already have several advertisers typically also have a large pool of publishers. These publishers could be potentially recruited, and there is also an increased chance that publishers in the network apply to the program on their own, without the need for recruitment efforts by the advertiser.
Relevant websites that attract the same target audiences as the advertiser but without competing with it are potential affiliate partners as well. Vendors or existing customers can also become recruits if doing so makes sense and does not violate any laws or regulations (such as with pyramid schemes).
Almost any website could be recruited as an affiliate publisher, but high traffic websites are more likely interested in (for their sake) low-risk cost per mille or medium-risk cost per click deals rather than higher-risk cost per action or revenue share deals.[28]
Locating affiliate programs There are three primary ways to locate affiliate programs for a target website:
Affiliate program directories, Large affiliate networks that provide the platform for dozens or even hundreds of advertisers, and The target website itself. (Websites that offer an affiliate program often have a link titled “affiliate program”, “affiliates”, “referral program”, or “webmasters”—usually in the footer or “About” section of the website.) If the above locations do not yield information pertaining to affiliates, it may be the case that there exists a non-public affiliate program. Utilizing one of the common website correlation methods may provide clues about the affiliate network. The most definitive method for finding this information is to contact the website owner directly if a contact method can be located.
Past and current issues Since the emergence of affiliate marketing, there has been little control over affiliate activity. Unscrupulous affiliates have used spam, false advertising, forced clicks (to get tracking cookies set on users’ computers), adware, and other methods to drive traffic to their sponsors. Although many affiliate programs have terms of service that contain rules against spam, this marketing method has historically proven to attract abuse from spammers.
E-mail spam In the infancy of affiliate marketing, many Internet users held negative opinions due to the tendency of affiliates to use spam to promote the programs in which they were enrolled.[29] As affiliate marketing matured, many affiliate merchants have refined their terms and conditions to prohibit affiliates from spamming.
Malicious browser extensions A browser extension is a plug-in that extends the functionality of a web browser. Some extensions are authored using web technologies such as HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. Most modern web browsers have a whole slew of third-party extensions available for download. In recent years, there has been a constant rise in the number of malicious browser extensions flooding the web. Malicious browser extensions will often appear to be legitimate as they seem to originate from vendor websites and come with glowing customer reviews.[30] In the case of affiliate marketing, these malicious extensions are often used to redirect a user’s browser to send fake clicks to websites that are supposedly part of legitimate affiliate marketing programs. Typically, users are completely unaware this is happening other than their browser performance slowing down. Websites end up paying for fake traffic numbers, and users are unwitting participants in these ad schemes.
Search engine spam As search engines have become more prominent, some affiliate marketers have shifted from sending e-mail spam to creating automatically generated web pages that often contain product data feeds provided by merchants. The goal of such web pages is to manipulate the relevancy or prominence of resources indexed by a search engine, also known as spamdexing. Each page can be targeted to a different niche market through the use of specific keywords, with the result being a skewed form of search engine optimization.
Spam is the biggest threat to organic search engines, whose goal is to provide quality search results for keywords or phrases entered by their users. Google’s PageRank algorithm update (“BigDaddy”) in February 2006—the final stage of Google’s major update (“Jagger”) that began in mid-summer 2005—specifically targeted spamdexing with great success. This update thus enabled Google to remove a large amount of mostly computer-generated duplicate content from its index.[31]
Websites consisting mostly of affiliate links have previously held a negative reputation for underdelivering quality content. In 2005 there were active changes made by Google, where certain websites were labeled as “thin affiliates”.[32] Such websites were either removed from Google’s index or were relocated within the results page (i.e., moved from the top-most results to a lower position). To avoid this categorization, affiliate marketer webmasters must create quality content on their websites that distinguishes their work from the work of spammers or banner farms, which only contain links leading to merchant sites.
Adware Although it differs from spyware, adware often uses the same methods and technologies. Merchants initially were uninformed about adware, what impact it had, and how it could damage their brands. Affiliate marketers became aware of the issue much more quickly, especially because they noticed that adware often overwrites tracking cookies, thus resulting in a decline of commissions. Affiliates not employing adware felt that it was stealing commission from them. Adware often has no valuable purpose and rarely provides any useful content to the user, who is typically unaware that such software is installed on his/her computer.
Affiliates discussed the issues in Internet forums and began to organize their efforts. They believed that the best way to address the problem was to discourage merchants from advertising via adware. Merchants that were either indifferent to or supportive of adware were exposed by affiliates, thus damaging those merchants’ reputations and tarnishing their affiliate marketing efforts. Many affiliates either terminated the use of such merchants or switched to a competitor’s affiliate program. Eventually, affiliate networks were also forced by merchants and affiliates to take a stand and ban certain adware publishers from their network. The result was Code of Conduct by Commission Junction/beFree and Performics,[33] LinkShare’s Anti-Predatory Advertising Addendum,[34] and ShareASale’s complete ban of software applications as a medium for affiliates to promote advertiser offers.[35] Regardless of the progress made, adware continues to be an issue, as demonstrated by the class action lawsuit against ValueClick and its daughter company Commission Junction filed on April 20, 2007.[36]
Trademark bidding Affiliates were among the earliest adopters of pay per click advertising when the first pay-per-click search engines emerged during the end of the 1990s. Later in 2000 Google launched its pay per click service, Google AdWords, which is responsible for the widespread use and acceptance of pay per click as an advertising channel. An increasing number of merchants engaged in pay per click advertising, either directly or via a search marketing agency, and realized that this space was already occupied by their affiliates. Although this situation alone created advertising channel conflicts and debates between advertisers and affiliates, the largest issue concerned affiliates bidding on advertisers names, brands, and trademarks.[37] Several advertisers began to adjust their affiliate program terms to prohibit their affiliates from bidding on those type of keywords. Some advertisers, however, did and still do embrace this behavior, going so far as to allow, or even encourage, affiliates to bid on any term, including the advertiser’s trademarks.
Compensation disclosure Bloggers and other publishers may not be aware of disclosure guidelines set forth by the FTC. Guidelines affect celebrity endorsements, advertising language, and blogger compensation.[38]
Lack of industry standards Certification and training Affiliate marketing currently lacks industry standards for training and certification. There are some training courses and seminars that result in certifications; however, the acceptance of such certifications is mostly due to the reputation of the individual or company issuing the certification. Affiliate marketing is not commonly taught in universities, and only a few college instructors work with Internet marketers to introduce the subject to students majoring in marketing.[39]
Education occurs most often in “real life” by becoming involved and learning the details as time progresses. Although there are several books on the topic, some so-called “how-to” or “silver bullet” books instruct readers to manipulate holes in the Google algorithm, which can quickly become out of date,[39] or suggest strategies no longer endorsed or permitted by advertisers.[citation needed]
Outsourced Program Management companies typically combine formal and informal training, providing much of their training through group collaboration and brainstorming. Such companies also try to send each marketing employee to the industry conference of their choice.[40]
Other training resources used include online forums, weblogs, podcasts, video seminars, and specialty websites.
Code of conduct A code of conduct was released by affiliate networks Commission Junction/beFree and Performics in December 2002 to guide practices and adherence to ethical standards for online advertising.
Sales tax vulnerability In 2008 the state of New York passed a law asserting sales tax jurisdiction over Amazon.com sales to New York residents. New York was aware of Amazon affiliates operating within the state. In Quill Corp. v. North Dakota, the US Supreme Court ruled that the presence of independent sales representatives may allow a state to require sales tax collections. New York determined that affiliates are such independent sales representatives. The New York law became known as “Amazon’s law” and was quickly emulated by other states.[41] While that was the first time states successfully addressed the internet tax gap, since 2018 states have been free to assert sales tax jurisdiction over sales to their residents regardless of the presence of retailer affiliates.[42]

The Top 17 Ways to Make Money Monetizing Your Website
Monetizing a website can be difficult at times, people just don’t know how to do it.
Most people out there are keen to make more money, it’s a fact of life.
A lot of people see the potential in starting a website, or if they own one already, because they can monetize it, earn an income and jump ship form a crappy job or unemployment – yet they don’t know where to start!
These days there are endless options and massive potential for anyone to make not only a living online but a tonne of money. 
When it all boils down though, these “endless” options can be refined categorized into a few key approaches.  So below I look at each and give you an idea of how to get started monetizing your website or blog.
Please note, some of the links in this post are affiliate links that I gain a commission from upon purchase. This is at no additional cost for you and helps keep this website funded and alive. 
So let’s get into it!
Below is a video covering some of the main methods to monetize a blog or website, but the blog post below is much more in-depth. I do recommend watching the as well and referring to the post for further information :)
Please Note: By playing this video, you hereby consent to the use of YouTube’s Cookies.

Looking for more ways or in depth info? Keep reading as I go into a heap of detail :)
Sell an E-book or Downloadable File
Tumblr media
The idea is simple, build an audience through your website or blog and sell an E-Book or file people want to download.
This is a very attractive option to monetize with as it means set everything up and walk away.  The sales process will operate without you, taking the money and granting access to the product is all automated. You may have to answer the odd email or give the occasional refund but overall it’s a pretty good deal if you can get it going.
Some ideas of Downloadable Files are:
E-Books (duh, says above)
Music or Audio recordings
Videos
Design Templates for Photoshop, Illustrator etc
High-Resolution Digital Artwork or Photography
Editable Documents
Software & Games
Bundles or Packs of the Above
There’s a number of ways to can set up delivery too.  You can go and start a full-on E-Commerce website with Shopify, or you can use the following to set up downloadable goods on your WordPress website.
Some WordPress plugins are:
WooCommerce
Easy Digital Downloads
Or you can use a third party service, such as:
Selz
Payhip
SendOwl
E-Junkie
Plasso
So there’s plenty of options to make your digital download a simple pay and receive process that happens completely without you, leading to a very passive income source to monetize your website with if set up correctly.
Sell an Online Course
Tumblr media
There are entrepreneurs and businesses out there selling premium online courses and making millions of dollars. Courses are quite popular and you can charge a decent amount for them, which is why they’re so effective.
You could charge $20, $50, $99, $299 or even $999 – depending on value delivered.
How much you deliver, the benefits if the information or how in demand it is. There are courses out there showing people how to make $100k a year with a certain business model or service and these courses can sell for $3000 or more!
Here are a few platforms you can use monetize with by creating Online Courses:
Udemy
Teachable
Wiziq
Ruzuku
Learn worlds
Thinkific
Academy of mine
Course craft
Skillshare
Zippy online courses
Click 4 course
Digital chalk
Pathright
Kajabi
If you’re using WordPress, there are also a number of plugins you can use:
LearnDash
MasterStudy LMS
WP Courseware
Good LMS
Namaste!
Sensei
CoursePress Pro
LearnPress
LifterLMS
I’ve personally haven’t created an online course yet, but as you can see there are definitely some options!
Sell a service
Tumblr media
This is open to your imagination!
This is how I was able to monetize my site and quit my job, by selling my design services online and now, thanks to websites like this one, work with people all over the world from home.
If you’re not sure what you should o, think of a problem you can solve with a service.  Then create a website to help advertise that service!
I tackled this in another post about making money online, but here are some ideas for freelancing or offering a service to monetize your website:
So, here are a few services that do well online in the freelance world:
Marketing / Social Media Management
Blogging / Writing
Graphic Design
Web Design
Teaching / Tutoring (Skype is perfect for this)
Translator / Interpreter
Legal Work
Accounting
Virtual Assistant
Photo Editing
Video Editing
Audio Editing
Voice over work or voice acting
SEO services
Fitness or Health Coach
Consulting of any kind
Whatever skill you have that doesn’t require a physical presence
You can set up WooCommerce and charge through your website or even just bill them via email afterward.  If you want to get started and earning sooner rather than later than this is an excellent place to start.
Sell / Rent Ad Space
Tumblr media
This one is an oldie but still not a bad option, as it can be extremely passive. You can simply use space on your website to display ads. Industry profitability plays a factor in earnings which means your earnings may vary depending on the topic of your website.
Basically, more traffic usually means you earn more money.
There are several different ad types you can monetize with:
CPC – Cost per Click You display an ad on your website and when someone clicks on that advertisement you earn a small fee. A lot of people set up little niche sites that sit and passively earn money using this model.
Here are your options to sign up and start putting CPC Ads on your website:
Google AdSense – by far the most popular and best choice for many.
Media.net
Infolinks
Bidvertiser
Chitika
Clicksor
Vibrant Media
Blogads
CPM  – Cost per Mille Basically, it means cost per thousand impressions. For every thousand impressions and ad gets on your website you earn a fee. A $2 CPM ($2 per thousand impressions) is seen as a decent benchmark, but it can go either way.
Here are some CPM Networks you can check out:
Propeller ads
HillTopAds
AdBuff
ClickADu
Conversant Media
Exponential (Formerly Tribal Fusion)
CPL – Cost per Lead This means for every lead you generate (could be a phone call or email subscribe) you get paid a pre-determined amount.
Again, here are some options for you to check out to start with CPL Ads. However, the following networks also have other offers so you may need to do some digging to find CPL offers.
ShareASale
Awin
Tradedoubler
Rakuten affiliated network
Rent space by the month or week / predetermined price. You can simply negotiate yourself or use an agency that sells your ad space. A lot of websites monetize their traffic by having a page named ‘advertise’ with a table of rates.
This can be a good option to get a predetermined amount.  If you have time you can easily implement it yourself, although an ad network will offer more statistics for a fee – keeping your clients happy for the ads they pay for.
Here is where you can advertise and manage rented Ad space:
BuySellAds
AdSella
Advertiise
Smarty ads
Blog Ads
So you’ve got some options to consider if you’re going the route of Selling ad space!
Sponsored posts
Tumblr media
People are willing to pay you to post one of their articles on your site. Crazy, right? Well it’s a top way to monetize your blog.
Usually, this post includes a keyword/anchor text link people are trying to optimize for SEO or it could be to advertise products. You can put this under your advertising page or wait to be contacted via email.  Either way, I’ve made thousands from ‘out of the blue’ Sponsored Post deals in the past.
Affiliate marketing
Tumblr media
Sell other peoples stuff and receive a commission!
Affiliate marketing is immensely popular as it can pay quite well, with some products out there offering hundreds of dollars in commission.  You simply add a link to your website, if someone clicks on that link and follows through to make a purchase, a tracking cookie puts your name next to the purchase as an affiliate and you get paid. That’s it.
There is no shortage of Affiliate Programs out there to monetize your traffic wtih.  Look in the footer of many websites to see if they offer an affiliate program, or see one of the networks below.  Just be aware, these are the top networks but even this list barely scratches the surface of what opportunities are out there, so get out and do some digging!
Amazon Associates
ClickBank
Shareasale
Linkshare
GiddyUp
JVZoo
CJ Affiliate by Conversant
Avangate
eBay Partner Network
Heaps of business have their own affiliate program and use no network, as I mentioned earlier, check their website footer for ‘affiliate’ or ‘partner’ program – or even do a Google Search for  “(website name) affiliate program”.
Sell physical goods
Tumblr media
One of the oldest methods in the history of the human race – “here’s my thing, you can have it for $5!”.
Selling physical goods on an E-Commerce platform or through a marketplace like Amazon and send people to it. It can be a good way to make some money and can be relatively passive or active depending on how you go about it.
There are some avenues to consider:
Shipping goods yourself – the most active method, when a customer buys you take responsibility for sending the goods on.
Fulfillment – You buy stock, send it to a fulfillment agency (Amazon offers this) and when the sale is made, someone else ships it, you just pay the fee and receive your money for the sale, no physical work is involved.
Drop-shipping – similar to above, except you only pay for goods when they’re sold.  Someone buys an item you’ve listed, the company you’re buying from is notified and sends it to the customer.  You get paid for the sale, you then pay the dropshipping company.  No physical work involved (nice and passive, no upfront costs on products).
If you run a WordPress website that you want to monetize, you can install WooCommerce and sell through there or try a dedicated platform like Shopify – where you can either sell on your Shopify site or install their plugin and sell from your WordPress website.
If you want to use a fulfillment service, here’s a few you can check out:
Amazon FBA
RedStag
ShipMonk
ShipStation
Sell your own ‘Print on Demand’ Merchandise
Tumblr media
I’ve done a little bit of this in the past and continue to make a small amount of passive income from it today.
You can create a design or quote and upload it to a ‘Print on Demand’ store.  It works by listing the item on a website and printing it individually once it’s sold – you keep the profit.  There are many places you can do this, selling shirts, framed prints, stickers, mugs and a diverse range of goods.
Here are some options you can monetize with:
Zazzle
Spreadshirt
Teepublic
Sunfrog
Society6
RedBubble
Amazon Merch
Fine Art America
Skreened
Design by Humans
DeviantArt
Refer products you sell elsewhere
Tumblr media
This kind of works with many of the above avenues.
If you make money anywhere else on the internet outside of your website, don’t be afraid to refer your own products. You could have a website that has no affiliate links, products or method of contact, and simply link out to your other site whether it be a Shopify Store, Merch store, Upwork profile, whatever.
Monetising a website doesn’t require everything to happen o on that exact website.
Rent-out your website (or areas of it)
Tumblr media
This is similar to selling ad space but on a much larger scale. With this method you monetize the entire website!
You create a website, rank through SEO, email marketing, blogging or whatever you do to get relevant traffic – and then you charge rent to someone to use it for their business. You can brand the site with their logo and contact details or rent out areas of the website to send them business.
This is one of the lesser talked about but still very popular methods that people use to make money with their websites.
Use it to promote your brick and mortar business
Tumblr media
Do you have a business or shop with a physical address?  Does your website discuss topics that are in line with that business?
Well, mention your business or shop and send people your way.  This works well if you can expand into online services or E-Commerce to truly take advantage of your online audience.
Connecting these two assets is an effective way to monetize traffic that can really bring in some extra money!
Accept donations & sponsorship
Tumblr media
Sometimes you can bring in some money by simply bypassing the whole exchange approach of selling and instead just ask for donation or sponsorship. It’s not the most effective way to monetize a site but it’s very non-aggressive. Paypal makes this easy with the Donate button you can add to your site which you can use for both options, offering one-off transactions or recurring transactions.
The difference between donating and sponsorship would be that a donation is received for your work and you can simply accept and leave it at that, stating that it will help keep your website funded and active.  Sponsorship would usually require something in return, such as a mention of the business somewhere or even some additional goods if you can think beyond that.
Many websites just have a “sponsors” section at the bottom of their main pages with a series of logos linking off to their websites. But there is another option which is a bit of a step up from there…
Run a Patreon Campaign
Tumblr media
If you have a YouTube Channel or website, you can easily start up a Patreon account.
Basically, users can choose their own fee amount to sponsor you with every month and you offer exclusive extras in return.  You can set levels of exclusive content by how much people are willing to pay and create a nice recurring income.
All you need to do is continually offer quality and keep people interested. You can monetize a website, a YouTube channel or whatever you prefer using Patreon.
Offer Premium Content
Tumblr media
Level up the content you’re already offering and monetize your site by offering it in a premium package.
You can sell a monthly or 12 monthly membership, or simply allow people to purchase each piece of content one by one.  Either way, this can be a good way to generate some extra money for doing a little extra of what you’re already doing.
There are a few options for creating a membership website:
MemberPress (plugin for WordPress)
Wild Apricot
Digital Access Pass
Memberful
You can offer a ‘pay per page’ option with the use of WooCommerce and the ‘Pay Per Post‘ Plugin
Combine with YouTube or a Podcast.
Tumblr media
You know if you reach 1000 YouTube Subscribers and 40,000+ views over a 12 month period, you can monetize your videos, right?
Well, if you have a highly trafficked website, embed those YouTube videos into your site to get them more views and therefore – more ad revenue. This combination can be advantageous as your YouTube Channel can promote your website, and your website promotes your YouTube channel. It’s like combining superpowers!
If you don’t know how to embed videos or start a YouTube Channel, check out my post How to Start a YouTube Channel (and Upload your 1st Video).
The same approach can be applied to podcasting. It’s another indirect ay to monetize your traffic.
You start a podcast, promote it on your website and then gain sponsorship or sell affiliate products through your podcast. You can even create blog posts and have the podcast available in MP3 format for people to listen to.
Combine some of the above
Tumblr media
You don’t need to stick to only one avenue of monetization.
You can combine a heap of these all into one website. Some of my niche sites sell Ad-Space,  a Premium E-book,  affiliate products and combine with my YouTube Channel.  While many out there offer digital products, an online course, and sponsorship through their Podcast – which they promote on their website.
There’s nothing stopping you from combining as many of these avenues as are compatible – some simply won’t mix well though.  For example, you wouldn’t rent out an entire website to a business and plaster it with ads and your own affiliate links. That’s just poor value.
But you can start with one and expand as you go, or simply respond to the demand of your audience by introducing products that solve their problems.
Flip your website
Tumblr media
If you’re not happy with your site, move on…
…but get paid to move on!
Websites can sell anywhere from $100 to $100 million.  It’s not a consistent form of monetization as you only earn from your website once with this method. But you can do it to multiple websites.
If you get decent traffic and earn a little bit of money, you can usually get a few thousand dollars. You’ll need to get a proper valuation though.
Here are a few marketplaces where you can list your website for sale:
Flippa
Freemarket
Empire Flippers
It is interesting to look at what’s available for reference – or you may even find a website you’re willing to buy.  You can consider buying a website and using it to earn an income or you can simply by, give it a little work and sell it at a higher price.

Like most of the other bloggers, my main concern is how to get traffic to your blog.I've tried many tactics, from social media to SEO.While they all work, they're hard to implement and takes a lot of work.So I contacted 27 famous bloggers, affiliate marketers and entrepreneurs to know which is the most UNDERRATED traffic source in online marketing.Here are my 5 favorite answers which I hadn't heard much about:Matt from Diggity MarketingMany… no… most businesses have a situation where their competitors are bidding for their own brand terms in Google AdWords.For example, Google “hostgator” and you’ll might find ads for Amazon AMS and Alibaba Cloud.If your affiliate partner is in this situation, ask them if they would like to give you a budget to run ads to your review page, so they can push the competitor ads down.Win-win.Lauren Lambie, founder of From Corporate To Career FreedomMy favorite traffic method at the moment is Pinterest. It’s often overlooked for marketing because people wrongly see it as primarily a source for decor, fashion, and recipes, but it’s a great traffic source for any niche. Just put together a good quality graphic to promote your link (you don’t need to have fancy infographics either; simple blog headlines work great).If you’re going to use it for affiliate promotions, I’d recommend promoting a blog article on Pinterest and driving traffic to your affiliate offers that way, rather than promoting your affiliate offer directly on Pinterest. You’ll get a better long-term result.Zac Johnson of Blogging.orgOne of the most underrated and less understood traffic sources for affiliate marketing is remarketing.Through the use of remarketing, site owners and affiliates have the opportunity to show ads to users that have already been to a website or landing page, and might not have converted the first time around.The reason why this is so valuable is that advertising dollars are only being spent on target audience users that you already know are interested in what you have to offer. This type of advertising is also great for increasing overall conversions and lowering ad costs.Brian Lang, Founder of Small Business Ideas BlogAdding affiliate links in opt-in PDF bonuses is something that most affiliate marketers under-utilize.One of the best times to engage your prospects is when they first opt into your email list and since many subscribers opt-in to get the PDF download, it’s a good place to place some affiliate links.Some other places include any autoresponder series that follows or the welcome email.Andy Crestodina, Co-founder and Strategic Director of Orbit MediaCollaborating with influencers is popular but still underrated.According to our annual blogger survey*, “influencer outreach” is the one promotion channel that is most correlated with success. 43% of bloggers who promote content together with influencers report strong results.*It’s not technically a traffic source, but influencers can power you social and PR (referral) traffic.BONUS (couldn't pick just five): Chris Makara, Founder of BulklyI’m not sure if this is underrated or just unknown – but a great way to get traffic is to leverage other people’s email lists.Ideally, you want to partner up with someone who has an email list with your target market.The way it works is that you basically offer up a free ebook, trial, guide, etc. through an email to their list. The email would contain a link to the asset on your site where you can capture their contact info or even remarket to them if they don’t take you up on your offer. In exchange, you do the same to your list.The result of this tactic is that it allows you to reach a new audience with little effort other than crafting an email.​If you would like to read all 27 answers, then you can read them here.
