Yes, it's true that a small number of affiliates ("super-affiliates") are making some very large incomes. And a larger minority, do earn lower-but-still-substantial amounts. But the truth remains... the vast majority of affiliates are struggling to earn. Affiliates struggle due to one or more of the following four problems. All four are avoidable/beatable, with the appropriate strategies and tools.
Most people fail at anything because of the tendency to FIRE-READY-AIM. They jump the gun and FIRE, rather than invest some time to get READY and then AIM.
The Affiliate model is a "high reward/low risk" Web site monetization option.
1. You don't have to develop excellent products - it has already been done for you. You simply judge and pick the best available ones, from the best available merchants.
2. You don't have to spend large amounts to manufacture and store inventory. No need to take and process a single order, or worry about getting paid (you don't even need a merchant account!) -- you simply send people to your affiliated merchants, then get paid when they buy
you don't have to handle or ship a product. Your SFI affiliate business can be started part-time, on a shoestring.
Yes, it feels "unproductive" to prepare and set up a system... But it's how the successful succeed. Part of your preparation should include considering going beyond the affiliate model.
Upfront thinking and planning...
- SFI has great way to develop best site concept/theme.
-. Brainstorm most profitable topics – Refer them to our great forum for ideas and the solution https://www.sfimg.com/Home?tab=forum
Not only is it easy to choose the wrong programs, it's easy to struggle with the right ones. Even great companies with terrific products often don't have the time to train their affiliates. Successful affiliates do their due diligence in order to select the best companies. They also diversify into other, complementary monetization models.
The solution? Take what you know, what you love, and turn it into a Theme-based Content site. Attract highly targeted, interested "PREcustomers," provide solid value through content and then refer them to your affiliate merchants.
In the offline retail world, the old saying goes that "location, location, location" are the three most important factors for success. If you put your offline store on the right street corner, you're 90% of the way home.
