What is residual
affiliate marketing?
 When most
people start exploring the world of affiliate marketing, they think
that they might run a site that will link to sites like Amazon or eBay
where people will need to buy a book or a CD or start or win an auction
for them to get paid.
But there is another
kind of affiliate marketing that can earn you money without lifting a
finger.
If you link to a site
that requires a customer to buy a membership in something, say a gym
membership or maybe an adult site that requires a monthly fee, you
don’t just get paid once when that person signs up.
Every time that
customer pays their monthly membership fee, you get paid. Honest!
It’s called residual affiliate marketing and it can be an
amazing way to make money from home on your website.
Everyone dreams of
sitting at home and making money without doing anything. Well, this is
a legitimate way to do just that. Different kinds of membership sites
tend to keep customers for different amounts of time. If someone
remains a member of a site or a program that you linked them to, you
could get residual commissions for years to come. If they cancel after
one month, then you would only get one commission.
This is why
it’s extremely important to link to quality websites.
You’re maximizing your effort. A good rule of thumb to follow
is if you wouldn’t use that site, don’t expect the
people you’re linking it to to use it either.
How can
you maximize this profit stream?
The best way to do it
is to choose who you link to carefully. Try to go with sites that offer
high quality products that get used up. Things like weight loss
products are a great choice. They tend to be expensive and people tend
to develop a good brand awareness with things like medicine, vitamins
and weight loss products so if a customer is happy buying them from a
site you linked them to, they will become your regular customers. A
happy customer for the company you link to ends up being a constant
revenue stream for you!
Residual marketing
Residual marketing
can be an absolute gold mine for some web users. It doesn’t
happen automatically though, you’ll need to make sure you
link to quality products and services if you expect people to use them
again and again. Make your choices wisely and you’ll be
shocked at how much money you can make, in the comfort of your home!
