Web Affiliate Programs - Article Marketing
Web affiliate programs offer you an income for bringing customers to buy a vendor's products or services. You can combine it with article marketing by using ezine article submissions to generate web site traffic.
Article marketing, ezine article submission for e-commerce, is more directed than simply increasing web site traffic. Its purpose is to bring customers into a sales funnel — a series of pages which leads to a pitch page, containing ad copy that asks for a sale, or to a squeeze page, containing ad copy that asks the visitor to sign up for a email list. The essence of a funnel is that the only links lead on through the funnel. There is no convenient way to get out but to back up.
There are three main ways that ezine article submissions are monetized: you can sell your own products, you can include ads on a page and get paid per click (PPC), or you can sell affiliate products. The ezine articles bring people to your page for direct sales or PPC and either your page or the vendor's page directly in an affiliate program. Here we will look more closely at using article marketing with web affiliate programs.
What has to happen is this: An affiliate brings customers to a vendor's site. When they purchase, the vendor pays the affiliate a fraction of the sale, or especially for sign ups, a set fee. Affiliate marketing is a safe, cost-effective way for companies to spend their advertising dollars. They only pay the affiliate when the affiliate brings them a sale or a sign up.
The affiliates use affiliate links bring the customers. Affiliate links lead to the vendor's web site and identify the affiliate, typically in a parameter following a "?" in the vendor's URL. (A less common alternative is to send the customers from a domain the affiliate has registered with the vendor.)
Article marketing should only require placing affiliate links in your resource box, but EzineArticles.com and other article directories prohibit the use of affiliate links in resource boxes. There are two good ways to get around that rule.

You can bring the customer to the your own page for a short sales pitch and invite them to click on an affiliate link. Here's a link to a video showing you how to do create such a page without even having your own web site. The video has been provided by James Jones, the creator of Micro Niche Finder. At the end of the video, you will probably be taken to another site where you can sign up to see a collection of videos on how to make money by quickly exploiting niche markets.

If convenient, when I mention a product or service, I include an affiliate link to it. That means, if someone clicks on the link and makes a purchase, the vendor pays me something out of their advertising budget. I'd be foolish not to. Here is how my affiliate links work.
