Why all the hype about blogs anyway?

What is a blog? Well, if you haven't discovered a blog yet, you're in the dark. Blogs are everywhere, and they contain information about many different things. For example, use a blog to promote your affiliate program. All you need to do is write a few articles or stories about your specific affiliate program. They can be about anything. Consider articles such as how to use your specific program, what is special and unique about your program, why people should use it and how they can benefit from your affiliate program.

Okay so I create a blog, now what?

The key to posting a blog is that you create interest in your users and force them to click on this always special link directly to your affiliate program. Now, that being said, an important key that everyone should know about blogging is that you should post on your blog at least once a day. Doing so will help get people to your blog and move forward with your affiliate program. That means more traffic for you.

Even better.

 

Now, a free blog is definitely free, however, many websites that offer free blogs will also offer you paid upgrades. With a paid upgrade, you can enjoy additional features, such as editing your posted articles if needed. You can also create and edit your blog pages to customize the design. A blog host can also give you the ability to create a pool directly on your blog. This will allow you to determine what you need to know from your visitors to make your blog more effective for your affiliate program.

Overall, the whole purpose of your blog is to promote your affiliate program. When you promote your affiliate program, you increase the exposure your program receives. This will ultimately increase the amount of commission you receive. Promotion = visitors = commissions; you must love this formula!
