In the last 1 year, I have generated more than
Rs.5 lakhs with the help of affiliate marketing by promoting only 4 or 5 products. I chose 4-5 products, started promoting them, and my commission on the sales generated
through that was more than Rs. 5 lakhs. How you can do affiliate marketing, what are the different ways to do affiliate marketing, especially one of my favourite ways, I will cover that in this video and tell you step-by-step how you can
start your affiliate marketing journey. First of all, if you don't know what affiliate
marketing is, let me tell you in a simple way.
In affiliate marketing, you need to choose a product. For example, I have a GoPro camera in my hand. Suppose I collaborate with the GoPro brand. Like I went to their affiliate page
and made a contract with them that I will promote their product and in return, they will give me a commission
whenever they get a sale through my link. A special link will be generated for me. For example, the cost of this product is Rs. 50,000. Now, GoPro says that they will give
me a 10% commission on each sale and whenever somebody buys it through
my link, I'll get Rs.5,000 for each sale. Any product, anything you use, an online software, a phone, from phones to laptops,
affiliate marketing is possible with everything.
In this video, we will cover the
types of affiliate programs, how to set up them,
and how to promote products. The first step is to search for
an affiliate marketing program. There is an affiliate marketing program
in front of me, which is vCommission Apart from vCommission, you can
find more programs to sign up for. I will link a few of them in the description for you. This is vCommission on which
you can find a lot of Indian brands. For example, there is Myntra.com,
especially for India. If you want to promote foreign brands,
you can do that as well. For now, let's see which Indian
brands are offering it. In India also, we get a lot of options. The first one is Aubank.in Credit Card.
This is a cost-per-action offer.
In this, you will be paid per action. For example, you will get exactly Rs.346
whenever someone does the action through you. Here, action means to sign up for a credit card. There are a lot of options like
Myntra and LuminCare. That's why, the first thing I would
suggest to you is to choose your niche. The niche in which you will create
content and promote products. For now, let's pick the AU Bank Credit Card offer. I opened this. I will get a payout of Rs.346. And you can see the graph of
conversions on this performance report. After signing up, a link will be generated and you have to promote that link. You have to promote it so that more
people click on it and do the action and you generate Rs.346.
I am talking about this particular offer. Let's assume Rs.350, which you will get for every person
who signs up for a credit card. The next thing is the way of promotion. How we have to promote our affiliate link. How we bring as many people as possible
and make them click on it and make money. There are multiple ways to promote affiliate links but what I will suggest here and what's the easiest is promoting
it by reviewing it by making blogs. For that, we will need a website. Making a website is very easy and let me tell you the best way very quickly. For that, we will go to Hostinger. We are choosing Hostinger because
it's one of the best service providers, especially in the niche of hosting.
I have been using Hostinger for 2-3 years since I started my digital marketing career. I have built all the websites through Hostinger only. The speed of its server is very fast. Your website will load very quickly and there will be a 99.9% uptime. How so? Because their new server is in Mumbai, India. The loading speed of your website will be very fast because the server that is hosting
the website is in India only.
The website will be opened very fast for Indians. Now, let's check the hosting options. Here, we have premium, business, and cloud. These are the features of premium. Unlimited free SSL, free email,
unlimited bandwidth, free domain… We will also get a free domain. I have bought a domain through this in the past. Now, let me show it to you again. Let's add it to the cart and go to the cart. Another benefit we get is the
30-day money-back guarantee along with 24/7 support. Now, we have four options, 1 month, 12 months, 24 months, and 48 months. If I buy the 48 months plan,
I'll get 3 months extra and the cost will be Rs.149 per month. So I will choose this.
However, I will suggest buying
at least the 12-month plan because if you buy for 1 month, you will have to renew it at a
higher cost when it expires. That's not a good thing. If you can buy the 12-month plan
with a good offer, then buy it. Currently, I'll go with the 48 month plan and it will cost me Rs.8439 after applying the offer.
Let me tell you another wonderful thing. Let me give you another coupon code. You can use my coupon code 'AKSHVERMA' Apply After applying the coupon code,
you will get an extra 10% discount. Like, you are getting hosting
for 48 months for Rs.7500. 48 months is a long time. That too with 3 months extra. If you want to buy a smaller plan,
you can still use the coupon code and get a 10% discount. Now I can checkout from here using UPI, PayTM, or net banking. I will use UPI for now. Let me fill up the UPI details quickly. After filling up the details,
we need to create an account. I already have an account.
Let me fill up the details.
Next, I will choose UPI as
I am going to pay using UPI. Submit Secure Payment Rs.7500 after a 10% discount! Now, it's asking for a transaction limit of Rs.14000 because it will automatically renew my hosting after 48+3 months. It will be renewed automatically
when it will expire. It depends upon me whether
I want to renew it or not but for now, I will have to allow it. Now, the hosting is done. As I already told you, I have been
using it for so many years so I already have my previous
hosting which has not yet expired. But for this video, we have bought
a dedicated hosting of 48 months. Now we will set it up. And as I told you we will get a free domain, so we choose the domain as well. Now I will click on setup and then, start now. After start now, we have three options, "I'm creating it for myself" "I'm creating it for someone else" or "I already have a website" I will choose the first one
as I am creating it for myself.
Then we have 5 options, online store, blog, business, portfolio, and other. The type of website you want to create. We are going to choose blog. "Do you need help building your website?" We need help. The core topic of this video is affiliate marketing and building a website takes time. So we will focus more on affiliate marketing and take help for building the website and choose the AI builder of Hostinger. Here, we have two options,
"Create a new website" or "Migrate my website" We aren't going to transfer any website.
We will build a website from scratch.
So, create a new website. As I just told you, it has an AI builder. We have two options, AI builder and WordPress. Which platform do you want
to use to build your website? The AI builder will do everything automatically. You just need to give input and it
will create the website for you. WordPress facilitates more customization. If you want me to create a
dedicated video on WordPress, then definitely comment down. I will create a video focused on WordPress
including blogs, articles, and customizations. But for now, we will use the AI builder
so that more people can do it easily. So I will select the AI builder. Finally, it's time to choose the domain. So I will select 'Claim a free domain'. If you want, you can use an
existing domain as well. If you already have a domain… Like, I already have a domain
of my name, akshverma.com. If I want to use that, I can connect it with this. But currently, I am getting a domain for free, so let's take it. Now let's enter the name of the domain.
For now, I have decided to
go with contentcreation.in. I could think of contentcreation.in
as a good domain name. If you want time to decide a
domain name, then take time. If you can't find a domain and want
to use your name, then you can do it. For now, I will go with contentcreation.in. Now, it has taken us to the AI website builder which we were talking about. It will build our website automatically. Using its website builder, you can easily
customize your website by doing drag-and-drop. Now we get 3 options, you need to enter the name of your brand
and the type of the website, and the third, give some details about the
website so that it can build a good website. The name of our brand is
going to be Content Creation.
At the beginning of the video,
we decided to promote a credit card and focus on the finance niche but now, the good domain
I got is contentcreation.in. In this, we can create blogs and write articles related to
the needs of content creation. A content creator needs light,
so you can review a portable light. For example, you can review a camera. Like GoPro for moto vloggers.
They are also content creators. You can review iPhone and describe
how an iPhone can help content creators. You can review these things. Our brand name is Content Creation. The website type is blog. Here, we need to describe what our brand is about. If you don't know what to write here,
you can get it done by ChatGPT.
Okay, it has given us a brief. Next, if you click on personalized settings,
you will find different styles and options. You will have some options to choose from. "Surprise me" It will create a random website on its own. Or you can choose among minimalistic,
modern elegance, or cosmic vibe. If you already have your own color palette,
you can choose those colors. But for now, I will choose 'Surprise me'
and see the website it makes. Click on Create a website. Simple! I hope it creates a good website.
We will do the rest of the customization. It has created this website for us. We just inputted a few words,
like the brand name and these things and it created this website for us. Like, this is perfect! We are going to show our articles like this only. One article will be here and here will be an article on another product and the Contact Us page is at the bottom. We need to add a few more things.
This is a single-page website, I think. We need to add more pages to it but it will be very easy but first, let's explore the AI tools! I clicked on AI tools. We get four AI tools. First, there is the AI logo maker. After clicking on this,
let's create the logo of our website. Content Creation. Okay? In the brand description, I will put the same thing. It has created 4 logos. Content Creation Personally, I liked the first and the last one. The third one is also good. If I want, I can also create it myself. After creating the logo,
you can apply the logo if you want. For now, we will not use any logo and we will go towards the next thing. Here, we already have two pages. Under Pages, there are two pages,
the Home page and the Blog page. Apart from this, we will have to add the Contact Us
page, privacy policies, and terms & conditions, which is mandatory. We can add them through Add Pages. Making these pages is very easy. You can easily create them from anywhere. Next, let's write the articles.
Let's choose a product,
write an article about it, and publish it. If you want to customize
the website, you can do it easily. In Website styles, you can customize
the text if you want to change the text. You can customize colors,
buttons, and animations too. But we will not do that now. First, we will jump to the blog article. Under the Blog tab, we already
have two demo blog articles.
Let's open them. These are two short articles with an image. Next, we will pick a product
and write an article on it. Initially, I decided to go with the credit card but now, we will switch to a
product related to content creation and for that, I will jump on to Amazon. I have been promoting Amazon products for
quite a long so let's choose an Amazon product. Amazon is very easy and everybody uses it. If you want to jump to those who pay higher
commissions, like Commission, ClickBank, I will drop the links to more
such programs in the description. Amazon too has an affiliate program. If you want to join it,
you will find its link in the description.
For now, let me choose something. There is a Blue Yeti microphone in front of me. It's a very popular microphone. I have already created its review video. If you want to watch its review video,
I'll link it to the i button. So this is the Blue Yeti mic. I clicked on it. After clicking on it,
if you are already an affiliate partner, then you will find a text option at the top, and if you are not, then sign up. Here is my affiliate link which we are going to use. For now, let's get the article ready. For the article, you can use ChatGPT. I won't suggest copying its answer and pasting
it on the website and publishing the article. I won't suggest that to you at all. Take an idea from here about the points that you need to cover and write an article yourself.
Otherwise, if you copy it from the internet,
it will be flagged for plagiarism and then your article won't be considered legitimate and it won't rank higher, resulting in less views. It will be much better if you write it yourself. "Write a 200 words article on
Blue Yeti microphone review" We will take ideas from this article
and write a new article from them to reduce the plagiarism rate. I have written a short 200-word article after customizing it myself. I took help from ChatGPT and wrote an article here. The more details I add to this,
the more beneficial it will be. Anybody who reads this article will like it and click on the link and go
to the product page on Amazon. Now, we will simply add the product. If I select this part… Let's choose 'Blue Yeti' and put our affiliate link there. Copy Paste here. I will add my affiliate links wherever I want to, so that whoever clicks on this link to check out Blue Yeti goes through my
affiliate link and I generate a commission.
I think a 5-10% commission will be
generated on the Blue Yeti microphone. To be honest, I have generated
a lot of sales of Blue Yeti and I have already got a lot
of conversions through this. Now, let's go further. We put up the link here. You have to do it the right way. I am doing it quickly but you should write the article in the right order, target keywords in the right order,
and put the link in the right order, so that the person can easily go to
Amazon to check out the product.
Our article is ready. The next thing is an image. If you want to use an image,
put up a nice image of the product. I am not doing it for now. It's a very easy task. You have to click here, go to Edit Image,
and replace this by uploading your image. Next, the top heading or the title of your
article must be related to the product, like 'Blue Yeti Review'. And once your article is ready,
once your blog is ready, what you have to do is…
Let's make the website live first.
"Go Live" This is the overall website. If somebody clicks here, they will directly
go to the product page on Amazon. This is my affiliate link. If they buy the Blue Yeti mic
worth Rs.10000 through this, we will generate around 10% or so. We will earn around Rs.1000 on each sale. If 100 people buy it,
that number will reach Rs.1 lakh. If the cost of the product is high,
you will earn higher commissions. This was a very easy way to
earn through affiliate marketing where you can promote things by
reviewing them by uploading blog articles and generate commissions
by promoting affiliate products. I have generated a lot of money through this, as I told you at the start of the video. And this is a passive income. You will be earning money even while sleeping. You don't always need to work hard. You are not earning only while
working but also while sleeping.
If you want a hosting or check it out,
you will find Hostinger's link in the description and you can use my coupon code
'AKSHVERMA' for a flat 10% discount. I hope you liked this video. If you liked this video, hit the like
