Make a decision to become a good affiliate marketer. Not so difficult to do when you really want to do something. Without a decision nothing will happen. Then you will just sit on the fence and dream about it. Statistics show that 9 out of 10 never commit to their decisions and take action. But you are different. You are willing to commit yourself to your decision and take action because you are a doer and not a dreamer. Am I right?
2. Get a Website or a blog
To become a good affiliate marketer you need a website or a blog that can be your online office where people can come to visit you, talk to you, connect with you, get help from you, learn from you and buy from you. You will have full ownership over your own content and website compared to starting from a social media account. I do not recommend using social media accounts as an online office, but it is good for leveraging your website and your business.

Why do you need a community you may ask. Well there are plenty of good reasons why this is an important success factor in becoming a good affiliatemarketer.
The obvious reasons are that you will get many new friends and grow your network. The other obvious reasons is you will learn more and faster than you will on your own.

The not so obvious reasons are that within the community you have access to a jungle of resources and training that you will not get anywhere else. you will have access to expert help.

You can also help others with your expertise. You can even earn revenue of making training inside the community.

Hi and I think you have laid out the main elements or steps required to start on the affiliate marketing journey. I have to say I think these are all important and they all fit together and depend on each other that it is difficult to pull any one of them out of the mix. In other words, I can’t even think about one necessary element – such as work – without the others, such as learning and community and taking action every day coming into the picture. I think it is also important to maintain a balance in your life and be realistic about how much time you can spend and will spend devoted to learning and building your site. I could imagine that some people find they give up when they find that too much time and effort are required and it just becomes too difficult to maintain constant output when you have other family and work responsibilities. So I would say, maintain priorities and keeping balance are very important. I would be please to hear what you or others have to say on this aspect. Thanks again and best regards.
Hi Andy! Thank you for an interesting comment. I really enjoyed reading it. I agree with you that it is difficult to pick just one element out and say: this one!.I think you are right when you say many people think they can just put up a website and it keeps rolling by itself. It is not how it works. Balance and consistency is important. You need to maintain a healthy lifestyle and live a little too. Glad you stopped by to leave a comment! Thank You!
Thanks for the informative article! I’ve been trying to break into affiliate marketing, my dream is to become boss-free and escape the 8 to 5 grind.

Thanks

Hi! Thank you for leaving your thoughts. Glad you found it understandable. Thank you for recommending my post. I truly Appreciate it. Yes many think it is just to sign up and the money will start streaming into your account. An online business is work like any other.
Thank you Hilde, this is a most welcome blog offering some timely advice for people wanting to work on-line via affiliate marketing. I love the “doers” picture by Canva, that looks like an excellent resource. Do you recommend other such picture/design resources? I have friends who are trying to monetize long term blogs, would you recommend the Siterubix and so add affililiate links to their blogs? It sounds like a great community that the operate. Is it really as good as you describe?
Hi Trevor! I recommend Siterubix for building and hosting a website. They also offers great Entrepreneur training which contain search engine optimization and affiliate training for free. I know of no other website builder who offers basic marketing training along with the website. When your site is up and going you can add affiliate links to your blogs. Do not forget the Affiliate disclaimers. and privacy policy.
Great Question!
Canva is a real good source and I also use Invideo and Promorepublic. All of them have their own strenghts to create good designs. I am using Unsplash and pexels photos as well. Canva Pro use a lot of high quality pitures from Pxabay.
Hello there, Affiliate marketing is a logical and flexible sales model that create multiple income streams. However, it is not an easy, get-rich-quick model of income. Earning an income through affiliate marketing requires research into products, web traffic patterns, and follower interests. Thanks so much for sharing your 5 tips. I know it would be of great help to many. Just to get started and making a website can be a hurdle if you do not know where to start. Siterubix and Wealthy Affiliate are really the best choice for many marketers. The training and community is truly unique.
Hi! Yes, you are right in the fact that affiliate marketing is not a quick way to earn money, but it is a good and well working model over time. All successful business models requires work and committment. Success is never a guarantee for anyone. It is the result of the process of failing and learning. Daily practice is the way to reach your goals and daily marketing practice requires discovering relevant products, creating helpful content, Analyzing patterns and your visitors behaviour. My #1 recommendation is to choose Wealthy Affiliate platform to discover, learn, reveal and communicate with customers and the industry of affiliate marketers.
