Are you a beginner and not sure how to make an affiliate marketing website that makes money? I have the exact how-to’s that you need to build this business because I have done it.
The website you’re on right now, Work Anywhere Now, makes a 4 digit online income for me, and I can show you how you can do the same and even use the same path that I took to learn it all.
But before we get into all that, there are a few things you need to know about building an affiliate marketing business and if I could show you the pitfalls of it, you will be able to avoid them and have a better chance of success with your new website.
Creating the website itself is actually pretty easy, the work of an affiliate marketing business is actually in the building out of the website which is what ultimately drives your business.
I will tell you why and how this is, plus much more in the following sections:

YOU SURE YOU WANT TO GO INTO AN AFFILIATE MARKETING BUSINESS?
You’re probably wondering why I would even ask this question to you but I ask this because I want to tell you how an affiliate marketing business really works.
Most people that go into it think they are going to make money with it fast but the truth is, there is much more to it than that.
The internet is filled with scams and low quality products that just mislead people on what affiliate marketing really is and the work that it takes to find success with affiliate marketing.
I have reviewed literally hundreds of these products and I know if you have been ever scammed or left feeling disappointed from one of these types of products, you’re not alone.
The truth is building an internet business using affiliate marketing is one of the best ways to make a passive income as well as being able to be your own boss and work from home at your leisure.
However, there is plenty of work to be done!
Especially in that first year of your affiliate marketing business, you really need to be able to work hard and not be bothered if you’re not earning much money in your first year.
This is especially true if you pick a niche that is highly competitive (like I did) because the process and the way things work will just take that much more work and longer time to see results since there is so much competition but doesn’t mean impossible.
I have cracked such a competitive niche with sheer hard work so it was not an easy ride, but look at my results for my last two years:
I’m totally on track to make $60K/year in my 3rd year plus some hopefully! I really can’t even predict what I’ll be making in my 3rd year since really so much could happen and things can change very quickly online.
However, my goal for this 3rd year is to make 5 figures a month, and I hope I can do this consistently by the time my 3rd year is ending.
There are really so much to look forward to in this business and so many directions you can take a website once you have traffic on your side.
Once of the most important things of an online business is traffic and without SEO, you’ll have to pay out of your nose to get it and it may not even be targeted traffic if you pay for it from a bad source.
This is what I’ll be talking about next, how to build your affiliate marketing website so that it attracts its own traffic just like the way you landed on my page today without me paying a dime for it!
BEST STRATEGY TO TAKE TO BUILD YOUR AFFILIATE MARKETING WEBSITE
As I started talking about SEO in the last section, the way I learned how to make a successful affiliate marketing website is by using an evergreen, long term SEO strategy and the blog format goes with this strategy hand-in-hand.
The blog format allows you to write articles about your niche that will rank on search engines and this format builds you a very dynamic site versus just having a static site.
Search engines like Google like websites that produce high quality fresh content on a regular basis so the blog format works very well like that.
Google don’t want to rank a site with just a few pages on it. Search engines are looking for valuable information they can offer their searchers, so if that’s what you offer on your blog, then you’ll have a chance to get ranked and be on the front page of Google.
Why the blog format is great for affiliate marketing is because you will be able to help people with things you know about your niche.
If you can help people in your niche to solve problems or help them fix something, then you will be providing great value.
There are millions of people searching for things to solve, the goal of your website and business is to get on the front page of their search engine and provide them with the answers they are searching for.
If you could do that, then any products you recommend in that article to help them fix their problems, don’t you think they will more likely click on your affiliate link and then, more importantly, even BUY that product you recommended?
That is how you make money with affiliate marketing!
By building trust with your readers this way, they are way more likely to click and buy from your site.
This is why having a website is so important in building a successful affiliate marketing business!
LEARN HOW TO MAKE AN AFFILIATE MARKETING WEBSITE NOW
As I mentioned earlier in my post, I’m going now show you how easy it is to actually make a blog website live on the internet.
All you have to do is think of a website name which is going to be first based on a niche you pick, so take some time to pick a niche of your choice, but make sure it’s something you will like and not for the money.
Picking a niche based on money will not bring you the money.
You must pick a niche based on something you like or else you’ll have to work even harder. I know this because I’ve done it.
I’ve wrote about things I don’t like or care for and it’s much harder than when I write things I like, which just comes out more natural.
Once you have your website name, you could enter here:
This way, you don’t waste buying a domain name when you’re not ready for it, and this way you can test this builder out and see how easy it is.
Yes, you’ll need to create a free account first to build your new site, and that’s the training place I was alluding to in the beginning of this post.

I have no skills and knowledge and I would like you to tell me your opinion about a method I discovered, which promising passive income.The reviews I have read about this method are excellent but I have learned in my life to always ask someone, expert, first before i go on anything.If you can check this method and tell me your point of view, I would be obliged to you, as I’m in a hurry to start 🙂

Again the article was great!
Hi George, I had to remove your link because that product will absolute not work and those reviews you read are not real as they are affiliates of that product, read this real review here for it.
Instead, why don’t you use a real legitimate training platform as I mentioned above?
Best of luck to you whatever you decide,
Grace
