How To Earn Extra Income Online - Lesson 5
"Search for Available Partners"
In the previous lesson, I've told you how you can use Google to find your available partners or merchants within your niche. For our case of "easter flower", I found several florists, holticultural growers and bedding plants of easter flowers on Google's result pages. These are the available partners or merchants for "easter flower". The next thing to do is to visit their sites and find out whether they offer affiliate programs.
Seek for any "affiliate" bar in their main menus. Or you can scroll down to the bottom of their sites. Sometimes they put the "Join Our Affiliate Program" menu there. Visit every pages in their sites and look there also.
If you can't find it anywhere in their sites, then they just don't have any affiliate programs for you to join. If this happens, you have to move on with the second hobby in your list and repeat the steps!
The second thing you can do to find any available partners within your niche is to visit your competitors' sites. Back to "easter flower", besides those merchants' links, there are also several rich-content sites on easter flowers. These are your competitors. Visit their sites and study them. Are they joining any affiliate programs..? If they are, then you have yourself the available merchants within your niche...
Another effective way to search for available partners is through Affiliate Directories. Here are some of the best in the net:
http://www.AffiliateShowcase.com
http://www.Cashpile.com
Take a maximum benefit from these directories by using their search boxes, joining forums and subscribe to their newsletters.
In the next lesson, we will discuss which Affiliate Programs you should join...
See you later!
