6 reasons why Affiliate Marketers and Blogger's are Alike

WARNING! YOU MAY WANNA PAY ATTENTION AND READ THIS ENTIRE ARTICLE.

This is a not a tricky statement, somehow, many may find it quite hard to answer.. I decided to do an article on showing you how affiliate marketers and blogger’s are alike, because a lot of people come to the conclusion they are different.  Even though these two careers sound different by name, in a minute I will give you 6 reasons why Affiliate Marketers and bloggers’ are the same and what you can do to ensure they are crossed interacted with your daily routine of making money whether or not you choose one or the other.

Let's get started.

They are both writers

It's obvious Blogger’s and Affiliate Marketers write. The only difference in their writing is that Affiliate Marketers drive traffic to other people's product by writing, whenever someone clicks on a link that directs them to the product and they purchase it, the Affiliate Marketer gets paid commission. Some Affiliate Marketers use PPC (Pay Per Click) to drive traffic, but for the most part, a lot of them are Article Marketers (driving traffic by writing articles on a specific topic for a specific niche).

Blogger’s for the most part hardly write, because they want to get paid commission for promoting other people's product. Most Blogger’s are freelance writers interested in getting paid a flat fee from companies willing to pay them to write an article on a particular subject.

Both of them do their research in order to write

Because Blogger’s and Affiliate Marketers write, it is essential both of them use the same type of technique to write in order to get a great response:

1. Research the topic 

2. Research the topic’s audience

3. Being informative 

4. Engaging with their readers

5. Writing like a normal person having a conversation

6. Answer exactly what the title of the article is asking or saying in the article

A1. In order to research the the topic. You must read about it, learn the ins and outs about it, and find possible terms that people use that are talking about the same thing. For instance, another word for stutter is stammer. When you do this, you will be able to relate to a vast amount of people interested in the topic. 

B2. Whenever you research what people that are interested in the topic really want to accomplish and need, it will help you to give exactly what they’re asking for. In some cases, it could be a product that you could be getting paid commission for everytime some purchase under your affiliate link. Some good places to look for affiliate programs are Clickbank, Commission Junction, Amazon, and there are a few independent ones. All you have to do is go to Google and search: niche name + affiliate programs, then you should be able to find a few independent affiliate programs.

Note: Whenever there’s a few affiliate programs on a niche, that tells you that niche is not profitable.

  C3. I don’t care what you write on the Internet, if you’re not informative, people will not listen to you, especially if you’re new to the online world and you’re name doesn’t have buzz yet. It is crucial that every writer is giving some type of knowledge in order to gain trust. Every writer wants to gain trust, because trust is what’s going to spread your clientelle and help you get more sales or more gigs. Without trust, you just have a ordinary person coming to your blog and leaving without doing anything that will benefit you. 

D4. In order to get a quick response from your reader, you must be engaging, and that means asking questions or asking them to leave a reply. In my personal opinion, a writer can not be engaging enough without writing 400 words or more. Writing less than 400 words doesn’t make you look good, because that means you’re less informative and less engaging, and that can ruin your chances of winning readership.  

E5. It’s extremely important to write like a normal human being. I say that because people don’t like to be sold to or read words they have to look up in the dictionary to understand its meaning. When you write, let the flow of it be exactly how you would talk in a regular conversations with your friend, extracting misspell words. 

F6.  Ouch, don’t you hate it when the article doesn’t answer the question or statement it promises to answer in the title? Not only is it annoying but also misleading, and this too will lead to gaining zero trust and less sales if you practice this type of behavior in your writing.

Both of them set their own hours

Every business owner set their own hours and it’s no different for Blogger’s and Affiliate Marketers. Don’t get it twisted, these are not jobs, these are 100% businesses that are 100% done online. Treating your business like a actual business will help you become more successful in your goal(s). That means making a plan and stick with it throughout your day or setting your hours and following through. If you’re like me, then writing everything down and checking them off as you go along helps a lot. If you want to jot them down on your computer, I suggest you do it on Google docs to save your computer from compiling space.

Both of them requires have a website

In order to blog, you must write about something on a website. As an amateur blogger, you must have a simple website to blog about something you like. A blog is like your resume that will show companies what you are capable of, and when you do get a gig, your author bio can point back to your website showing your skills.

Affiliate Marketers must have a blog to promote other people’s products, because most article directories don’t allow raw affiliate links to be pointed back on their site. Besides, it takes a regular person at least 7 times to see something and be interested in it, so that makes it better for you as a marketer. When you create a Wordpress site or blog on blogger, the more you write, the better chances of your site being indexed or found on the first page of Google under your specific topic or keyword you’re trying to rank for.  Writing articles on Article directories or guest blogging on other people’s blog will give you that extra back link that you need to get found faster online. Remember, multiple places is better than getting found through one place.

Both of them are marketers

Believe it or not, Bloggers’ are marketers just like Affiliate Marketers. Blogger’s intentions may not be on marketing specifically, but blogging is another form of marketing indirectly. 

Affiliate Marketers promote other people’s products and get commission every time someone purchase under their affiliate link, however, whenever Blogger’s write for companies, they are promoting someone else or something, just by talking about it. 

Both of them can determine how successful they want to be

Being your own boss means setting your own prices, setting your own hours, and definitely determining how successful you want to be. How do you determine how successful you want to be? Well, you can start out with a plan, stick with that plan, think positive, hang with successful people and keep learning. If you’re not constantly learning, then you will get left behind, because nobody knows everything.

If you’re wondering how you can use blogging and affiliate marketing at the same time, it’s pretty easy. Whenever you blog about something that has a problem, find a program you think will fix that problem, and point to it using your affiliate link. Or, if you’re talking about a product, point to it using your affiliate link. Using the 6 techniques I showed you, you should be fine. Just make sure to do your keyword research. One best way to do keyword research is by going to Google and type in the search bar one or two words you want to use, then Google will automatically come up with a few words to complete your search. These words that Google comes up with to complete your search are words or phrases that are popular searches for that particular niche or topic. You can use the exact phrase in your title or reward the phrase how you want, but use the keyword you want to rank for in the article title and in the first paragraph of your article.

Why Sleep Is Important To a Successful Business Person

Sleeping is very important in life. Without it, your body will eventually shut down and your health will be at risk.

How do I know?

I know because I was at risk years ago. I literally got 4 hours or less of sleep each day, because I wanted to become successful at making money online so bad that I lived on the computer.

Sad thing about it is that even though I lived on the computer, my funds were still low and my love life was crappy because of it. Not to mention, I became sick to. After my doctor told me that I needed more rest, I found it hard to do so. I had to train myself to go to sleep early and not stay on the computer after 12 am.

Getting enough sleep will improve your productiveness in anything you do and also keep your body feeling alive each day. If you have a bad case of sleepless nights because of your business, I highly suggest you reconstruct yourself to sleep early and stop burning yourself out by working less.

How do you work less?

You work less by outsourcing. You may not want to outsource because you feel like you can do everything, but trust me, you are making life harder. In order to work less and make more, you must outsource. If you need another way to work less and make more, you can visit sites like:

The correct way to start a Affilate blog

Starting a blog isn't that hard, especially when you know a little something here and there. But even experienced bloggers get stuck from time to time.

So, if you are a newbie and you really want to start blogging, then I highly suggest you learn as much as you can about it, simply by taking action while learning. There are two ways to start a blog correctly. One is by creating your own blog and the other way is by using a premade blogging platform.

I'm assuming you want to make money off of your blog. It is up to you to figure out which way is best for you. Most people want o skip all the heartache and get a premade blog that will make them money. There are a few ways to go about it, but regardless of which way you choose, it is crucial that you know what your niche is and stick with it.

If your blog is on fashion, you can not talk about eating pizza. it's not relevant to your niche and will throw your visitors off, which will not create a following for you. Secondly, you must not write duplicate content. Be yourself and the creative person that you are, because people can sense a phony person from the computer and they know if you've put together junk information. Though there are tons of ways to start a blog, follow this blog to get the full detail on the correct way to start a blog.
