Affiliate Program Guide on How Affiliate Links Work

When you make the decision to earn money by becoming an affiliate with the Sales-Training-Sales-Tips website you have 3 options that you can choose to sell the eBooks in the program.

If you are new to online selling this affiliate program guide will make everything simple for you by explaining all your options and how to put them into action. We are also happy to answer any questions and give you all the help you need via the contact box on the affiliate program main page.

If you are experienced in e-commerce just click the link and Join our Affiliate Program.

So let’s get started by showing you the 3 options available to you and how to use them to get your customers to make that money making click…

As an affiliate you pre-sell the eBooks on your website, blog, or mail-outs, and influence the readers to make a click towards buying and earning you commission.

Your visitors take that action by clicking one of 3 types of link on your site or blog:

Common Affiliate link

This takes them to the main shop sales and information page on the Sales-Training-Sales-tips website. You use one link, as often as you like, and this common link sends visitors to the shop page where they can find more information and buy the eBooks that will earn you commission.

A visitor clicking this common link gets a 60 day cookie, so if they return within 60 days you will earn commission on any eBooks that they buy within the program.

For more information on using this type of link open Common affiliate Links.

Product Specific links

Product specific links are unique to each separate eBook. The links take the visitors to a sales and information page for a specific eBook where they can buy that one product. This type of link allows you to promote individual eBooks in more detail and the visitor is well primed to make a purchase when they arrive on the sales page.

Using this link your visitor still gets the 60 day cookie for all products in the program, so if they return and purchase any of the eBooks you get the commission.

See more information on how to use this type of link at Product Specific Affiliate Links.

The above two links that take visitors from your site to the sellers site to make their purchase are known as Hop Links.

Direct link

This is a Buy Now button on your site for a specific eBook that takes the visitor directly to a secure payment page. See the difference between direct links and hop links.

This direct link gives you full control of the pre-sell and getting the visitor to buy now. You can use your sales & marketing skills, and the text and images from this website, to create your own unique sales pages. You can use all 3 types of affiliate links in any combination on your site or blog.

The common affiliate link is easiest to use and can be implemented with minimum effort on your part. The product specific link requires a little bit more work from you to pre-sell the visitor and motivate them to click, but conversion rates when they do click make this worthwhile.

Direct links are the best convertors and will earn you more money as long as you invest time in creating a good sales page on your site or blog. My advice is to focus on using the direct link, and then the others links as second and third calls to action lower down your sales pages.

Ask yourself the following questions:

Consider if you want to sell all the eBooks in the affiliate program guide, or just certain ones. Are you going to focus on the eBooks individually or promote them all together. This will help you to decide on how to use the 3 options above for your links.

Do you want to write just a few lines of text before a link to a page on this website that sells the eBooks, or do you want to take control and invest in pre-selling your visitors and influencing them to buy by writing sales copy and adding images.

Whichever you decide you can use the images in the right column and there are some prepared adverts and ideas on Affiliate Program Marketing information.
