In recent weeks I’ve been trying to diversify WPShout’s income — you’ll notice that Shout now sports some links in the sidebar pointing to WooThemes and WPWebHost, both using affiliate links to do so. There are a couple of ways I’m now handling my affiliate marketing through my WordPress Dashboard and this post will run down the different ways I’m now doing this.
As I did earlier in the year, I’ve kept this one relatively brief and I’ve used a screencast to show you how I do it.
Making links nice
The first thing I’ve now got is all my links in one place and standardised, all going: wpshout.com/go/product-name. I’m doing this with a plugin called Thirsty Affiliates. It’s the only premium plugin I’m using on WPShout and it’s a great way of sorting and organising affiliate links, as the picture below shows.
WordPress is a great platform to start for Affiliate Marketing. Aside from it is widely used, it is a user-friendly which everyone would love to use.
I started using WordPress as an affiliate marketing platform about a year ago. I’ve had great results! All I need for my affiliate marketing can be found at wordpress. They offer a lot of plugins that are helpful for my affiliate. Many bloggers run a site through WordPress itself, but the best way to use WordPress is as a self-hosted installation to take advantage of everything that WordPress has to offer.
