Good Post. Did you set up an affiliate program with a company like Clickbank?

Do you think I would be successful if the book were written about something other than affiliate marketing?

I’m working on affiliates now. It sure is interesting. I started by asking “good guy” companies that I’ve learned about in my consumer research and writing, including companies that sell organic products. Most don’t have affiliate programs.

Now I’m looking for other “good guy” companies that have a mechanism set up for affiliates. I’ve applied to three companies and am waiting for a reply.

This sure is complicated.

Affiliate marketing is a preference. Personally I wouldn’t use it on my blog because I don’t see a need for it. I see it as a turn off for readers, but if your promoting a product then go for it by all means.

One of the basic tenets of any kind of marketing is putting your best foot forward and capitalizing on the opportunity to make a good first impression. The first step in formulating a sustainable marketing plan is to understand what the naturally occurring information or opinions are out there about your specific product or service. Next, is to decide if the information paints an accurate picture of you. If it does, you’re ahead of the game and you can begin to build upon this. Since the healthcare industry is a little late to the party of web-based and interactive marketing, I expect that most people will find that there is very little information out there about them and their practices. At the very least, you need to be checking to be sure your contact information is accurate and up-to-date. After all, patients can not make appointments if your phone number is wrong. However, all is not lost! The time to think about marketing plan and marketing message is now. As consumers/ patients begin to take a more active role in their own health care, it will become increasingly important to have some sort of web presence. Take action early because it is much better to begin to participate in your web presence early in the game than it is to have to fix huge problems that occur without you knowing. I am a physicist practicing from about 7 years. I was also unaware of such a fruitful resource that can be taken care of. Then I came across a similar blog regarding the website for physicians. I consulted a web designing and marketing company named http://www.medicalwebexperts.com. They designed my website embellished with a large amount of functionalities which include, learning materials, tests and scans descriptions, information regarding what all we do, blogs where patients can comment on the articles, provide suggestions. And the most important function that was unparallel with every other function was e-Medical Records. They provided the functions to store the details of the test and scans conducted on the patient, hence providing them 24/7 access to the medical details to the patients. And after my website was host and marketed, I am able to feel the outcomes on my income. My patient count is definitely increasing (though not as fast), but quite distinguishing.

Hi Darren!
Since my blog is new, I rely on affiliate marketing right now since I don’t have quite enough traffic to make money through selling ad space. But, I actually really like affiliate marketing! It’s fun talking about products and services I have personal experience in, building trust with my readers and hearing that their purchase through my affiliate link worked out for them.

No customer service, credit card processing or returns to have to deal with – much easier than retail.

You definitely have to acquire some copywriting skills to truly benefit from it. Also, relationship building is key. I only promote products that I have personal experience with or that I’ve researched. That way, every one of my recommendations is genuine and my readers can trust in my opinions. I’m here to help – if I earn an income while doing it, it’s icing on the cake!

Hi Darren,

Affiliate marketing does require work. It is not a get rich procedure, it takes time and effort. I really appreciate your advise. I would like to involve myself a little more in affiliate marketing. With some time and effort I know that this will be very profitable
