Blogging for Affiliate Marketing

[bookmom]

I need a refresher.. Wordpress..which one allows for affiliate marketing for blogging?

[JoeSpirit]

Are you asking which WP platform permits publication of content promoting affiliate products?

Ok, Got It, I also want to know about it in details. I will learn it.

I don't think this post is worded correctly. WP is a Content Management System,
it has nothing to do with affiliate marketing. It is a platform for blogs and website creation.

Affiliate marketing is the promotion of products or services that are not yours in which you'll get a commission on a valid sale. Hope this helps clear up a few things.

What niche are you interested in? I used Travelpayouts on my travel blog. It helps my visitors to book flights or hotels etc.First time (for 4-5 months) I didn`t earn lots of money, but later it became even a stable income.

Wordpress.com is a site that allows you to share a blog on their server. According to their info below, you can put affiliate links on your site as long as your goal is to create original content and not just sell people to your site. Wordpress.com is free to use or you can grab one of their blogging packages.

Wordpress is also a standalone CMS system that you can add to your own web hosting where you can add your own affiliate links to your heart's desire. Web hosting will run anywhere from $1.00 per month (bad idea) to $50/month (probably overkill.)

I hope this answers your question. Let me know if you want to know more.

Thanks,

Don't use the free wordpress site. I built a few good blogs on it some years ago for affiliate marketing and all at once they shut them all down. I couldn't even get into them to retrieve the content. Things might have changed with how they do things now...

I now use a hosting platform like Bluehost and host wordpress on there. I can do so much more, can host unlimited blogs and I am in charge of my content.

I never thought it wise to give somebody else control of your business activities.
