How To Market Affiliate Programs Using Bum Marketing
By Jude Wright
BUM article marketing is just one of the many article marketing techniques that are available to affiliates and other online users. Once you have your money making affiliate website created, you will want to create fresh articles or have them written for you.
Once this is completed, simply search for the topic article directories and submit your new articles to each of these websites. The articles should always be on topic to the subject of the affiliate program you are working with. This brings in targeted traffic once the search engines have found your articles, links and website.
There are a few steps involved with affiliate programs and BUM article marketing that you should go through to get the results you are seeking. The first step should begin with your niche and website or blog. Search affiliate sites for products you know well, have used in the past and have a good relationship with. Advertising something that you have never used can become tricky if your visitors do not like the products that they purchased based on your good word.
Once you have found the product or products that you would like to market, you should go to blogger or Google pages to get a free website setup. Depending on how serious you are about this business, you can also get a web host and domain name very cheaply to make your website even more professional.
Search the internet for good keyword tool programs and websites. These tools will help you find profitable keywords that you can use on your website and in articles. Always try to use the least popular keywords and long tail keywords as they will help you to find even more targeted traffic than before. Going after top keywords can be tricky as millions of websites will already be fighting over them. Taking the least popular ones will mean less competition.
Once the keywords are found, you should begin to create your website around them. To do this you can simply write about specific aspects of the products in your niche. Creating reviews is also a great way to maximize your website with fresh content. Internet users love searching for reviews to see what others think about a specific product that they are thinking about buying.
The next step will be the writing of articles that will also include the long tail keywords that you have previously acquired. If you will be paying someone to write these articles, be sure to include the specific keywords and phrases that you would like them to use. Once your articles are complete, you should begin with article submission to top article directories.
To really get into the process of BUM articles and affiliate programs, some will skip over the website step and simply submit articles to directories while they place their affiliate links in the bio sections. This offers an even quicker way to get affiliate commissions without having to create your own website. A website should still be used as it can help you create a list of potential buyers.
can i use google’s blogger for affiliate marketing?
Yes, you can do it.
Is affiliate marketing allowed on Blogger?
Are we allowed to do affiliate marketing on blogger.com?
M not too sure about that cos one of terms of agreement seem to say we are not to use it for any commercial purposes.
Also Word Press explicitly forbid it.
Below is copied from Blogger Terms of service:
7. No Resale of the Service. Unless expressly authorized in writing by Google, you agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, trade, resell or exploit for any commercial purposes (a) any portion of the Service, (b) use of the Service, or (c) access to the Service.
Doesn’t it sound like its use for commercial purposes is prohibited? I have heard some instances where accounts were terminated for suspicion of being SPAM blogs??!! i.e blogs used to direct traffics to other sites.
This is from WordPress:
And here are some examples of blogs that are banned from WordPress.com (all of these fall under the general heading of “spam blogs”, or splogs, and we will be deleted as soon as we find them or they get reported):
* Scraper blogs: Blogs that take content from other blogs and re-publish it without permission (this is sometimes called scraping). If a blog contains all or mostly stolen and unoriginal content, it’s gone!
* SEO blogs: Blogs that are written for search engines instead of humans. These blogs are dedicated to trying to fool Google and other search engines into ranking them highly. WordPress.com is not meant for this type of activity.
* Affiliate marketing blogs: Blogs with the primary purpose of driving traffic to affiliate programs and get-rich-quick schemes (”Make six figures from home!!”, “20 easy steps to top profits!!”, etc). To be clear, examples like people writing original book or movie reviews and linking them to Amazon, or people
Yes, I’ve been using affiliate links on Blogger blogs successfully and never received any comments from Blogger that I should remove them.
I don’t recall reading anything about it on their license agreement or whatever you have to agree to when signing up.

Question about Affiliate Programs?
I think I’m gonna try to do some Affiliate Marketing to make some extra money. I’ve never done affiliate marketing before so I’m just starting to learn. Right now I don’t have a website. My first question is do I need to have separate websites for each Affiliate product that I promote? Is there a place online where I can get or make a website for free or would having a blogger.com account work?
GOOGLE BLOGGER OR SQUIDOO LENS?
