An Intro to Affiliate Marketing: How to Make Money Even if You're a Beginner (3 Step Blueprint)


Hey, how's it going everyone? This is Jonathan Coates coming out of Orlando, Florida. In today’s article, 

I’m going to give you a basic introduction to affiliate marketing and show you how to make money even if you're a beginner. 

This is my three-step blueprint, so you definitely want to stick around and take notes. This overview will provide clarity and keep things in perspective.

Step 1: Find an Offer


If you don’t have your own product, don’t worry! You can promote someone else’s offer through various affiliate platforms. 

My favorite is ClickBank, but you can also use Market Health or DigiResults. These platforms have a vast array of products in different niches.

Step 2: Host Your Offer


Once you have your offer, you need a platform to host it. 

This can be done through paid hosting options like HostGator, GoDaddy, or D9 Solutions, or for free using WordPress. 

If you choose a paid option, you’ll need a domain name, which usually costs around $10 per year. 

On these platforms, you can write articles, create blogs, and provide detailed reviews of the products you’re promoting.

Step 3: Drive Traffic


The final step is to drive traffic to your hosted offer. You can use paid methods like pay-per-click (PPC) ads on Google, solo ads on Udemy, or even Facebook ads. 

Alternatively, you can leverage free traffic sources such as forums, Reddit, Quora, and social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. 

Contributing valuable content and engaging with your audience in these spaces can lead to significant traffic to your offer.

By following this three-step blueprint—finding an offer, hosting it, and driving traffic—you can start making money through affiliate marketing. 

It’s a foolproof way to generate income online, whether part-time or full-time. Stick to this plan, and you’ll be on your way to financial freedom.

I hope this puts things into perspective and gives you the clarity you need to get started. Happy marketing!
