How to Make Money With Affiliate Marketing on a Review Website

Learning how to make money online with affiliate marketing (i.e., by selling other people's products) will teach you about internet marketing without having to take the risks of coming up with your own product. Having an affiliate marketing website will also help you to understand which products sell the most in any given niche when compared to other products. From here, you can either decide to make a product of your own or decide which product you want to push the most aggressively.

Review sites are perfect for this because you get to see how each niche product stacks up against its competition. It's important for you to have some sort of tracking or analytic software, however. This will show you the ratio of people who read each page in comparison to how often people buy the product listed on the page. In turn, this will show you which products in your niche sell the best.

In order to track this, it helps to have good tracking or analytics software. Google Analytics is one simple program that will help you keep track of who's coming to your site, where they're coming from, and how often they're buying. For more information, check out google.com/analytics. Another program that many people like is StatCounter. For some people, this is a better choice than Google's affiliate tool, while others disagree. It is largely a matter of personal preference. If you'd like to compare the two, go to Statcounter.com. It's definitely worth a half-hour or so of your time to decide which affiliate solution is best for you.

When you build your affiliate marketing website based on product reviews, you can easily target each product with its own page। People often look up reviews for a product before they make that final purchasing decision। This works out well for you because it means your review page might be the last stop they make before buying that product! It also means that if they decide against the product they're researching, you still have a chance at making a sale. After all, the people on your site are obviously interested in the niche. They are also interested in buying products in that niche--otherwise they wouldn't bother reading reviews.


Here are the basic steps for the Squidoo-Google Dance:

1. Create a Squidoo lens on "Your Keyword"

2. Start a blog on "Your Keyword" (or re-focus an existing blog)

3. Submit both your lens and your blog to blog directories and the search engines.

4. Write an article on "Your Keyword" with the resource box linking to your blog AND your lens.

5. Submit your article to article directories.

6. Create links from your Squidoo lens and blog to your article(s).

7. Set up an RSS feed from your blog to your Squidoo lens.

8. Start posting to your blog with "Your Keyword" in your post title.

9. Ping the blog directories for your blog and squidoo lens with each post.

So what is happening?

You have created a dynamic interaction (dance) between your blog, your Squidoo lens and your articles.

  • Your blog and Squidoo lens are being updated simultaneously.
  • Your articles are creating backlinks to your lens and blog.
  • Your blog and Squidoo lens are creating backlinks to your articles.

By pinging the directories, you are inviting Google to join the dance. Google continuously crawls the directories looking for updated material.

If you have multiple articles on the same keyword or topic you can also add your article feed from an article directory to your blog and Squidoo lens. Blogger.com, for example, now has provision for adding RSS feeds to your blog.
