| Where you
place your affiliate links on your website can really make a difference
on how many clicks you end up getting and, since every click means a
potential sale, this is an important aspect of Internet marketing.
Research
has shown that the most effective affiliate links are text links. Yes,
plain text links. Not big flashy banner ads like most affiliate website
are filled to the brim with. What happens is, you write a great article
(or have one created) about the product or something related to the
product and stick the link into your text. This allows interested
readers to see the link as they are reading and click on it.
Of course,
your article and your link have to work effectively together to make
this happen. A bad article and an unrelated link to an unknown product
are not likely to make the profits roll in.
So the next
time you are out to choose an affiliate link, try
placing
a relevant
link in a great
article
that is well
optimized for search engines and
see how it works out for you.
