"Be an Affiliate Site AND a Sales Site"
...... not only do you get a direct commission from the sale to this person, you also get 2nd tier commissions from any sales they make in the future.
2. Set up a mini-site for one of your affiliate programs so that you are only reselling this one product or service. This would be a site with just 2 pages. On the first page is the link to the product itself.
On the 2nd page is the description of the affiliate program and the link to the affiliate program sign up page.
Your goal is to actually direct your visitors to the 2nd page where they can sign up to the affiliate program. Why'
You will get more commissions from signing up affiliates into your 2nd tier than by visitors directly buying the product through your affiliate link. This is because more people will be interested in the affiliate program rather than the product. But when they join the affiliate program, many of them will buy the product or service.
In summary, think about using your site as an affiliate program site as well as a sales site. It gives you 2 bites at the cherry and having 2nd tier affiliates means you can be earning commissions for many years.
