You can make money online from home with the
Amazon affiliate program just by getting people to click on your links. And in this video, I'm going
to show you exactly how you can make money with Amazon affiliates in just 5 minutes. So, let's
start the timer. The first thing you're going to do is sign up for an Amazon Associates account. Go
to Google and search for Amazon Associates. Then, click the first link here. Just click on the sign
up button and either sign in to your existing Amazon account or create a new one if you don't
have one. Now you're going to enter your account information here and click on next. Then add your
website. And if you don't have a website yet, don't worry. I'll show you exactly how you can
create one quick and easily later in this video. After that, type in what you want your Amazon
Associate store ID to be.
And this can be whatever you want it to be. Click finish. And boom, you've
just signed up for your first Amazon Associates account. Now, just below that, make sure to add
your tax and bank account information so you can actually get paid when you start making money,
which I'll be showing you how to do. After your account is approved, head over to amazon.com and
search for any product you want to promote. And right here at the top of the page, you'll see a
bar called the Amazon Site Stripe bar.
And you can select any product you want to be an affiliate
for. You're just going to need to click text and it will autogenerate a unique affiliate link
for you. And this link allows Amazon to track it so that anytime someone uses or clicks on your
link, you're going to get paid when they make a purchase. And you can paste that link on your
blog, your website, anywhere that someone might click a link. And again, if you don't already have
a website, don't worry. In just two minutes, I'm going to be showing you how to create a website.
And creating a website is one of the easiest ways to do affiliate marketing because then a lot
of people will come to your website.
They'll be clicking on your links and you'll be making money.
So I'll show you how to do that in just a second. But let me give you a real example. Let's say you
want to promote a tea product. Just search for that product. Then what you're going to do is copy
the link and start sharing that link with your family, your friends, and ideally people online if
you want to make a lot of money. And you can post that link on Tik Tok, YouTube, Instagram, your
blog, which I keep talking about, anywhere that people are going to be viewing things or looking
at things. You can post that link and get them to click on your link and buy things.
And like I
said, anytime someone clicks on your link, you're going to earn a commission because you're helping
to promote to market that product. It's that simple. But here's the best part. Even if someone
clicks on your link and decides not to buy the product that you were promoting, let's say they
go to Amazon and they buy something else instead, you're still going to get paid. For instance,
let's say they read an article that you created about the best tea on Amazon.
They click on your
link, but then they decide not to buy the tea and instead decide to buy some tasty electrolytes.
You're still going to get paid for getting people to go to Amazon and buying things in general. But
now, let me show you how to create your affiliate marketing blog or website. And this is extremely
easy to do because we're going to be using a company called Hostinger. And when you create a
website, you need a hosting company. And Hostinger is one of the most affordable and in my opinion,
the best hosting company out there. And to do that, you're going to click on the link down below
in the description. It'll take you to Hostinger's website. But by using this link, you're going to
get a huge discount. And then you can click the claim deal button. This will take you to the plans
page where you can choose which plan you want to sign up for.
I recommend going for a longer plan
because you're going to want to have this business for more than just a couple months. And when
you buy in bulk, it actually locks you in at that discounted rate. And hosting is extremely
affordable. It's only a couple dollars a month if you use my link. So prepaying for a few
years makes a lot of sense to get locked into that discounted rate. And I do have the hookup
with Hostinger. If you use coupon code Travis, you'll get an extra 10% off. I'll put the link in
the coupon code down below in the description. But let me show you the rest of the steps of creating
your website.
So the next thing is you're going to fill out your billing information, your personal
details. After that, click submit, secure payment, and boom, just like that, you now have hosting.
All you need to do from here is go through and quickly set up your first website. Again,
Hostinger makes this extremely easy. They'll ask you who the website's for. So, choose myself
or my business. Then it will ask you what you want to do. And let's say for now we select build a
website. Now, here's an important part. You'll be given two choices. One is to use the Hostinger
drag and drop builder or to use WordPress. To make this easy, what you're going to do is you're going
to choose to build your website with WordPress because it's free, it's super powerful, and it
works the best with the Amazon affiliate tools. After that, you're going to create your login
for the WordPress dashboard.
This is going to be a different login than your login for Hostinger.
The next step is to figure out which plugins you want to use. When it shows you the plug-in list,
make sure to choose Amazon Affiliates Connector by Hostinger. This plugin lets you easily insert
Amazon products and affiliate links straight into your blog post. You don't need to know how
to do coding or anything technical to use this. It's really that simple. Just one click and
it's done. The next thing that we're going to talk about is getting your domain name. And with
Hostinger, you can get a free domain name. And a domain name is the ww whatever.com you want your
website to be hosted at. And one of the great things about Hostinger is the ability to choose
the best domain extension for your site. This is the dot com.store.org. Australian websites end
with.au and for the IRS they use.gov, for example. But for you, there are a lot of good options.
Obviously.com is the king, but sometimes you can't get the com.
So, a couple other options,
especially if you have an online store, isstore oronline. So, pick your domain name. Then,
you'll enter your personal details to register the domain. Next, you'll choose your target audience.
And once you're done with that, Hostinger automatically installs and sets up WordPress for
you. It's extremely simple and quick. But now that you have a WordPress website, you need to add
content to your blog or your website to start bringing in traffic and clicks to your affiliate
links. And this is where you can use AI. Hostinger actually has a AI content writer that's going
to make writing content for your affiliate blog extremely easy. You just tell the AI what kind of
article you want to write. Choose a friendly tone or whatever tone you want and select how long you
want the post to be. Then click create and it will write a full blog post for you including a metad
description and even AI generated images. You can then tweak the article however you like. Publish
it and from there you can start adding affiliate links to it.
And I'd recommend creating an article
about whatever products you're trying to sell. So, if you're trying to sell tea, talk about the
best green teas on Amazon, the best black teas, talk about the health benefits of green tea, and
put links, and you can start adding the products to your blog post. You just need to go to your
post, click on the plus symbol right here, search for link Amazon products in the editor, and you
can add a single product card, a multiple product card, or a comparison table to show why one
product might be better for specific people than this other type of product.
For instance, let's
say I was doing a comparison of bourberine tea versus high caffeine tea. And both these products
are products that I actually sell on Amazon. And that's what I usually talk about on this channel
is how to make money by selling products on Amazon using Amazon FBA. But you don't need to create
products to make money with Amazon. You can use Amazon Associates and affiliate marketing to make
money off Amazon without having to create your own product. And all you need to do is search for the
products and choose your layout. The plug-in will pull the product info from Amazon, display it
on your blog along with a buy now button that's linked to your affiliate ID, and just like that,
your Amazon Associates affiliate website is live and set up, ready to go, and it only took around
5 minutes.
But warning, before you go live, you need to know a few important rules so you
don't get banned. And a lot of new affiliates make these mistakes, so pay attention right now.
Do not shorten your Amazon links using Bit.ly or other tools because Amazon doesn't allow that.
Also, never put affiliate links in emails, PDFs, or ebooks. Your links have to be on public
web pages, or on social media. The next huge mistake most new affiliates make is listing
the price. Don't list the price on your website because prices on Amazon change all the time, and
showing the wrong price can kill trust and make it so you make less money. I also really recommend
somewhere on your site that you say you're using affiliate links to keep things transparent and
to keep things legal.
And most important, do not click on your own links and make sure that anyone
that's ever been on your Wi-Fi, friends or family, anyone that's ever logged into their Amazon
account on your Wi-Fi. Do not have them click on your affiliate links. Amazon can detect this and
will shut down your account. I've seen it happen and it sucks. And boom. And that's how easy it is
to start making money with Amazon Associates by creating an affiliate website. And again, there's
a link down below in the description. You can sign up with Hostinger using coupon code Travis to
get an extra 10% off. I've got the hookup. I've got the best deal on Hostinger around. If you
click on that link, I negotiated with them. I tried to really make sure that you would get
a good deal. And Hostinger is already the most affordable hosting company out there from what
I've seen. And so by getting an extra 10% off, you're gonna make sure you secure the best deal
with one of the best hosting companies out there. So click on the link in the description to sign
up for Hostinger and set up your affiliate website and start making money.
Thanks for watching
