And that is done with forums or online communities such as Facebook groups.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nSo first of all you need to locate these forums or groups. Like I said, Facebook is a good starting point but you also have places such as Reddit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next you want to join up and start posting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s important that you don\u2019t just spam\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nYou should actually become a part of the community. Don\u2019t just try and promote affiliate offers. Get in and actually answer questions, be a valued member of the community. <\/em><\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThis is going to help build trust with other members and show your authority within your chosen niche. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There will be times that you can slip in some promotions or have links in your signature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just remember to check the rules of the forum or community. <\/em><\/strong>Some simply don\u2019t allow any kind of promotion. <\/p>\n\n\n<\/hr><\/div>\n\n\n
2. Free Blogs<\/mark><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n\n
Now I know this article is about how to do affiliate marketing without a website, so i\u2019m cheating a little with this one. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nAs you will be creating a website\u2026although it won\u2019t cost anything. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can register for a free blog from places such as wordpress, blogspot and many more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These will allow you to create a basic website with limited functionality, but it is a start. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nNow I have NEVER really seen these appear in the search results in the last 5 years. <\/strong>(They use to rank well<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nSo you will want to use a free blog with one of the other methods to generate traffic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is normally what I recommend to people that do want a website but cannot afford hosting and a domain name. Make a few sales with a free blog and then invest in your own dedicated website.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<\/hr><\/div>\n\n\n
3. Create An E-Book<\/mark><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n\n
This method is actually pretty simple and doesn\u2019t take too long. Although you are going to still need to put a decent amount of work into it. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nYou first need to find a topic that people are interested in. Whether this is something you already know about or if you need to use something like Google Trends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There was a time that I was interested in Calisthenics. So let\u2019s imagine I create an ebook on that. <\/em><\/strong>(You want to look at unique angles, to separate yourself from other ebooks on the same subject.) <\/p>\n\n\n\nIn that eBook, you would then put in some affiliate links. (I would suggest using redirects you control, so you can update these easily without having to update the ebook<\/em><\/strong>)<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nYou then want to get the book distributed. I\u2019d recommend offering it for free so you get more downloads.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nMoney will be made from the affiliate sales more than a few cents from the actual ebook. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Get it listed Amazon in the kindle store and as well as other sites such as ManyBooks.net.<\/p>\n\n\n
<\/hr><\/div>\n\n\n
4. YouTube Channel<\/mark><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n\n
YouTube is an excellent way to get into affiliate marketing without a website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Got your niche? Then plan out a series of videos or livestreams. Get them edited, uploaded onto your channel and start building your audience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The great thing about YouTube is that you can generate a lot of views and subscribers from within the platform. Focus on a specific niche, do your keyword research and create quality content and soon you will start building up your channel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can start making money from it by including affiliate links in the description. <\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nOnce you hit 1000 subs and 4000 views in a year, you can then unlock ads and earn some additional revenue that way. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nPersonally I love YouTube and creating videos\u2026Something I really need to put some more time into. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<\/hr><\/div>\n\n

Ninja Top Tip<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nNo matter which method you choose, go for one that you have an interest in and you enjoy doing. With using traffic sources such as YouTube, you’re going to be spending alot of time editing videos. If this is something you dont enjoy doing, you’ll eventually give up. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nSo even though niche selection is very important. You should also enjoy the way you promote affiliate products or services as well. <\/em><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n5. Paid(PPC) Marketing<\/mark><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n\n
Even though content marketing and SEO is my main marketing method, I have had some decent success with PPC. Mostly focusing on adwords\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nPaid marketing can be done through many channels such as Google, Facebook and YouTube just to name a few. It appeals to many because you can see fast returns.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\nYou are basically paying for people to click your ad, so you see instant results. Unlike SEO where you have to wait months and months. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nTo offset this however, since you are paying for clicks you need to really keep an eye on your costs and make sure you\u2019re making a decent ROI (Return on investment)<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nThis method works well with a website but you can also do it without a website. I would recommend having some form of landing page to collect emails and then funnel them through an email series. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unless the affiliate program you are with does allow you to direct link..(<\/em>many don\u2019t actually allow this<\/em><\/strong>)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n
