Thank you, Heather! So glad that you enjoyed the post! Blogging and making money is definitely not an overnight success for most people, you are right about that! Thanks for reading 🙂
Let’s look at an example. Say I sign up for and get accepted into the Pit Boss Affiliate Program. I go to the Pit Boss affiliate portal and they give me unique links (for grills, pellets, etc) that I can use on my blog. I post a recipe using my Pit Boss on my blog and include an affiliate link to the grill I used in various places on my post. Thank link goes to the product page of the grill I used. Someone reads my blog post and decides they want the same grill I have so they click my affiliate link and it takes them to that grill on the Pit Boss site. They purchase that grill. I get a commission on that sale because I assisted in that sale. I have a full time job that I’m not ready to leave. So I use affiliate marketing as a supplement to my income. It’s my side hustle. Sometimes it’ll take care of my gas money for the month and sometimes it’ll take care of the mortgage and my car note too. I’m not at the point where I’m making six (or even five) figures yet. But a LOT of people use affiliate marketing as their full time job and sole source of income and I believe it. Maybe one day I’ll be at that point but until then, it’ll remain a fun side hustle.

I recommend using ppc ads in the beginning in addition to keyword research as a way to test keywords and sales pages. Just keep things ultra low budget, i,e, $5 per day max until you really know what your doing or you could lose your shirt. June 5, 2017 at 9:48 pm
