Are you an affiliate marketer struggling to make sales? Or have you made a few commissions, but need better results? Either way, there’s multiple places you probably didn’t know about, to post your affiliate links.
If you’re a blogger, I’m sure you put your affiliate links in blog posts. If you don’t have a blog, you may put your links in social media posts. These both work great, but why limit yourself to one place when you could post to many?
Let’s take a look at where else you can post your affiliate links, to get more click throughs and sales of the products you affiliate for.
Little Known Place to Use Affiliate Links to Make More Money
In a Blog Post
Putting affiliate links in your blog posts is obvious. But did you know there’s other places than the text to add your links? Try adding your affiliate links to:
– Buttons. Write a clear call to action (CTA) on your button and make it a bright colour. This catches the readers eye and encourages a click
– Blog post images. You’ll be surprised how many people click on images. Why not make your images clickable with a link to a relative product?
– Within tables and infographics. These are great opportunities to get more affiliate link clicks. Create an informative infographic and encourage sharing. Design a table with offers or resources for your followers

Sidebar Widgets
A widget is a tool or piece of content that sits in the sidebar of your blog. They are great for free downloads and courses you want people to buy. Create an interesting graphic and add your link to it.
Website Banners
These can sit at the top, the side or the bottom of your blog. Some affiliate product owners give away their own or you can create one embedded with an affiliate link. Make sure it stands out and has a clear CTA telling the reader what to do like ‘’click here’’ or ‘’get started’’.
Popups
Most people use popups to get email sign ups and for free giveaways. Why not try out an exit intent popup with an affiliate offer in it? I wouldn’t overdo this as it can come across too pushy. But an irresistible offer, just as someone is about to leave your site will get clicks.
Resources Page
What tools are you using for your blog? Create a resources page and add affiliate links to great products. Once you get results, readers will want to know what products helped you do it.
About Me Page
The ‘About Me’ page is a well-clicked on page in your blog. People love to snoop on the creator to see who they are and where they came from. Make sure to include your social media links and sneak in a few affiliate links if you can make it look natural.
Thank You Pages
Wherever a reader is on your blog, you should be directing them to a next step. After signing up to your email list, the thank you page is an opportunity to ask the reader to check out a great product or follow you on social. Online Sentence Rewriter by SEO Tools Centre is a great tool that you can use to rewrite content for the Thanks You pages of your website.
In eBooks
Have you created your own eBook? While this will make money independently, you can add affiliate links in the conclusion to relevant products that further help the reader. If your eBook is about ‘’How to Get More Traffic from Pinterest’’, a link to sign up for Canva Pro or Tailwind makes sense.
Within Your Lead Magnets
A lead magnet is a gift, given away in exchange for someone’s email. Lead magnets can be video tutorials, PDFs, a software download or printables. Within your lead magnet, link to an affiliate product if it complements the free giveaway.
In Your Email Welcome Sequence
Once a new subscriber has landed on your list, they’re probably curious about you and what you have to offer. While you should lead with value, this is a great opportunity to show off a few affiliate links. If you have a 5 email welcome sequence, aim for day 3 or 4 to offer a list of resources or a relevant affiliate product.
Answering Questions on Quora
Quora is a popular question and answer site. Many people go to Quora to find answers in just about every niche. You can set up a profile and start answering questions. Always focus on answering the question fully and don’t just spam links. But if you have a great product that helps readers of the question, link to it within your answer.
Conclusion
There are many creative ways to use your affiliate links. It’s always good to diversify your methods to boost results. Building a niche affiliate site takes time, but with perseverance you can make a healthy living. Always keep testing and tweaking different ways to see which get the best results.
