How Can I Bring Traffic To Affiliate Links?

You must create a blog, social media account, or YouTube channel, and now you want to drive traffic to your affiliate links. Right?

You’ve tried many ways to get more traffic, but you didn’t see any improvements. 

Are you doing something wrong? 

Or is it just that getting the desired results with traffic is challenging? 

Allow me to reveal all.

How Can I Bring Traffic To Affiliate Links?

Getting no traffic to your affiliate links when you are a beginner due to three main reasons:

  1. You don’t build a solid relationship with your target audience, so they don’t trust you enough. Once your audience trusts you, they will love trying the things you promote. Hence more sales down the road.
  2. Focus on organic traffic instead of paid traffic. You might end up losing more money than what you make by paid traffic, so beginners shouldn’t go paid traffic route.
  3. Do you ignore social media or email marketing? It’s an excellent way to engage with your target audience, which could also help you generate traffic to your affiliate links. 

1. Build Trust

When people land on your website, it’s time to build trust, especially when they don’t know you well.

Besides informative product reviews or valuable how-to articles, you can add your actual photo in the author box and the “About Me” page, which helps you build trust with your target audience and gives your blog a personal feel.

2. Focus On Organic Traffic

Organic traffic via search engine optimization (SEO) is what I use the most and recommend. It’s free and costs nothing. What you need to do is to create quality content that answers your target audience’s questions.

Eventually, your quality content will show up on Google page one, and people will have more chances to land on your blog posts.

You can also leverage online forums like Quora and Reddit to find more questions relevant to your niche. The more you answer questions that people ask online, the more visitors you will get in the long run.

3. Social Media & Email Marketing

Leveraging social media & email marketing helps you engage with your target audience, raise your brand’s awareness, and get more traffic. 

Sharing content could be simple and easy, and it yields massive results. Social media platforms provide a window for answering questions, asking for ideas, or building community. Facebook, Instagram, or Pinterest are good starts.

As for email marketing, you might say it’s the product of the last century. But it still works so well today.

Email marketing allows you to foster a solid relationship with your target audience, promote content, and boost sales by sending them information straight to their inboxes. 

When they visit your website, you can ask them to sign up for your list by giving them freebies/lead magnets, which could be an SEO checklist, 101 Niche Ideas, or Canva templates. Your email list will stay with you whenever social media platforms crash. The money is in the list…
