This is going to vary a little, depending on what sort of blog system you're using or the hosting you have, but regardless of how you do it, it's the same basic idea: You host a graphic (or point to where it's hosted), and you attach it to a link.
* In the case of the Marketing Tools banners that SFI hosts for you, they will supply you the images and links--you can even copy it directly into the HTML within your blog. For example, this is the Card King banner (your affiliate number replaces the "xxxxxxxx"):
<a href='http://www.tripleclicks.com/xxxxxxxx/games/CardKing.php'><img src='http://static.sfimg.com/SFIBanners/banner461.png' border='0'></a>
The "img src" information holds the image location itself, and the "href" information points to your gateway link for Card King.
* Most blogs also have a "media center" for hosting your graphics or video more directly, and it's also possible to save banner graphics that way. When you make your blog post, you then just select your graphic, add it to your post, and then link to the gateway of your choice.
* In less-structured blog software, you may have to host the graphic more directly, saving it into your hosting account. Say you're working off "bootmookus.com" (I checked--they don't exist), and you've got a personally-made and approved SFI banner you call "bannner1.jpg". You'd upload it to your hosting account, and it would work much like the gateway banner above:
<a href='http://www.tripleclicks.com/xxxxxxxx/whatever-the-gateway-is'><img src='http://bootmookus.com/banner1.jpg' border='0'></a>
I could go into more detail on specific cases, but that could take all day! Have fun!
