1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,830 All right, so we're going cover the top 10 affiliate networks for beginners here. 2 00:00:04,890 --> 00:00:10,980 Now, this is for beginners, because these are going to be networks that basically have a number of 3 00:00:10,980 --> 00:00:12,480 different products on them. 4 00:00:12,780 --> 00:00:17,820 And realistically have a bunch of quality products and quality companies that you can recommend and 5 00:00:17,820 --> 00:00:18,750 pull from. 6 00:00:18,810 --> 00:00:19,100 OK. 7 00:00:19,410 --> 00:00:20,970 So we're gonna cover them all here in a second. 8 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,280 But what I want to touch on is start with these, OK? 9 00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:29,430 And then branched out to other more specific affiliate programs for your niche and products that you 10 00:00:29,430 --> 00:00:31,290 might want to potentially recommend. 11 00:00:31,350 --> 00:00:36,120 We're gonna cover how to potentially find better products and how to find potential affiliate programs 12 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,970 as well as, you know, a different approach and strategy with that. 13 00:00:39,990 --> 00:00:41,250 And in a coming lecture. 14 00:00:41,260 --> 00:00:46,430 So it's OK if you don't understand what I mean by that or how to go about doing that with the processing 15 00:00:46,430 --> 00:00:51,720 might thinking like, OK, like I can join all these Bulik, how do I know of other programs or other 16 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,560 products that I can recommend within my knee? 17 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:55,690 That's one of the most common questions that I get. 18 00:00:55,710 --> 00:00:55,970 OK. 19 00:00:56,310 --> 00:00:59,490 We're going to cover that in future lectures, so don't worry about that right now. 20 00:00:59,500 --> 00:01:04,830 I would just recommend that these are the top 10 affiliate networks that you should join if you're a 21 00:01:04,830 --> 00:01:05,280 beginner. 22 00:01:05,310 --> 00:01:05,530 OK. 23 00:01:06,060 --> 00:01:08,880 And obviously I recommend joining NEACH specific ones. 24 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:14,250 So not this one once you start getting going, because those neach, the civic ones will pay higher 25 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,810 and you'll have more success and higher conversion rates with them and you'll start to build a better 26 00:01:19,170 --> 00:01:21,270 affiliate marketing business with content. 27 00:01:21,510 --> 00:01:22,110 If you do that. 28 00:01:22,910 --> 00:01:26,010 What I'd recommend for off 10 of these and there are plenty of them. 29 00:01:26,010 --> 00:01:31,380 These are just my opinion on the top 10 out there currently is apply to all these and join all these. 30 00:01:31,410 --> 00:01:31,620 OK. 31 00:01:32,290 --> 00:01:38,280 The benefit of networks like this is that they have a number of different products on them that you 32 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,720 can draw from, that you can pull from that, you know, pretty much comes up with, like anything that 33 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:43,770 you want to recommend. 34 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,040 You can pretty much find on one of these, if not all of these. 35 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,340 So we'll kind of briefly touch on all of these. 36 00:01:49,350 --> 00:01:51,630 But like I said, apply to all these and join them all. 37 00:01:51,870 --> 00:01:56,400 It's definitely something that you should be doing in the beginning to get your start, get started 38 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,810 and get your feet wet with this business model a little bit. 39 00:01:59,070 --> 00:02:03,420 But then obviously, once you kind of get going with it, once you get better at it, once you're looking 40 00:02:03,420 --> 00:02:07,950 for higher paying affiliate programs and affiliate commissions, then you want to branch out. 41 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,530 But this should always be your base. 42 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:10,740 Right. 43 00:02:10,770 --> 00:02:14,590 This is always like the foundation of your building as a metaphor. 44 00:02:14,630 --> 00:02:14,850 Right. 45 00:02:15,150 --> 00:02:18,720 So I even still use links from these even today. 46 00:02:18,750 --> 00:02:18,980 OK. 47 00:02:19,100 --> 00:02:21,950 So don't don't sleep on these in the next lecture. 48 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,160 Want to talk about specifically why I don't necessarily recommend that you stay with these. 49 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:26,390 Right. 50 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:31,110 And that's actually a question I asked where I answered excuse me, in the -- Bryant section of this 51 00:02:31,110 --> 00:02:31,500 course. 52 00:02:31,770 --> 00:02:34,410 So I don't recommend that you just kind of settle for these. 53 00:02:34,500 --> 00:02:37,020 It's something that you're gonna want to branch out from eventually. 54 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,400 But these are a great starting point. 55 00:02:39,210 --> 00:02:41,430 So Amazon Associates is a great one. 56 00:02:41,430 --> 00:02:44,970 You can find pretty much anything on Amazon and any Amazon product. 57 00:02:44,970 --> 00:02:45,930 You can grab you r.L. 58 00:02:46,290 --> 00:02:48,840 You can go to Amazon associates, sign up for all of these. 59 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,370 And anybody can sign up for all of these. 60 00:02:50,700 --> 00:02:54,390 And then go to sign up for Amazon Associates, which is Amazon's affiliate program. 61 00:02:55,130 --> 00:03:01,650 Paste that link or paste the ASIO in which is just the product identifier on Amazon that you can basically 62 00:03:01,650 --> 00:03:05,190 find or literally search for that product within Amazon associates. 63 00:03:05,220 --> 00:03:06,060 And you can find it. 64 00:03:06,090 --> 00:03:06,270 Right. 65 00:03:06,300 --> 00:03:09,930 So anything on Amazon, you can get an affiliate link for through Amazon Associates. 66 00:03:10,230 --> 00:03:12,720 Anybody can join and then you can make money that way. 67 00:03:13,350 --> 00:03:18,060 Now, one of the benefits of Amazon and, you know, some of these other ones are the cookie period 68 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,120 and the broad array of products that can pull from. 69 00:03:21,150 --> 00:03:24,650 So obviously, the broad array of products on Amazon is self-explanatory. 70 00:03:24,660 --> 00:03:27,930 You can find millions and millions and millions of products, pretty much anything. 71 00:03:28,170 --> 00:03:32,290 But the cookie period basically states that if you're cookie period, we're gonna use the example of 72 00:03:32,290 --> 00:03:32,880 30 days. 73 00:03:32,910 --> 00:03:38,060 But I'm not sure because Amazon does change their policy depending on when you actually watch this, 74 00:03:38,070 --> 00:03:40,620 or sometimes it's like 14 days, sometimes 30 days. 75 00:03:40,890 --> 00:03:41,900 They constantly change it. 76 00:03:42,180 --> 00:03:43,950 We're going to use the example of 30 days here. 77 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,110 So with a cookie period on any one of these, and they all have cookie periods, just read the terms 78 00:03:49,110 --> 00:03:53,670 of service and the settings of what your actual settings are as an affiliate. 79 00:03:53,670 --> 00:03:55,230 Once you sign up, it's easy to find. 80 00:03:55,530 --> 00:03:58,640 But let's just assume that you have a 30 day cookie period with Amazon says. 81 00:03:58,780 --> 00:03:59,010 Right. 82 00:03:59,370 --> 00:04:04,050 So what that basically means is if you pull a product from Amazon Associates and you grab that link 83 00:04:04,110 --> 00:04:07,690 and you're planning on creating a video and recommending that product in your YouTube video. 84 00:04:07,850 --> 00:04:13,230 And if somebody clicks that link and goes through your link to Amazon, even if they don't purchase 85 00:04:13,230 --> 00:04:16,310 the product that you recommended, your cookie period starts. 86 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:16,580 Right. 87 00:04:16,950 --> 00:04:18,840 So let's say the cookie period is 30 days. 88 00:04:18,870 --> 00:04:24,330 Then you have 30 days on that person's, you know, assuming that they don't clear their cachet on their 89 00:04:24,330 --> 00:04:24,870 browser. 90 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:30,300 Thirty days for them to actually purchase a product on Amazon and then you would get a commission for 91 00:04:30,300 --> 00:04:30,480 that. 92 00:04:30,510 --> 00:04:36,660 So that is so, so powerful, because if even if they don't purchase the product that you recommend, 93 00:04:36,690 --> 00:04:40,860 but you get them to click your link and you don't want to be like facetious and, like, disingenuous 94 00:04:40,860 --> 00:04:42,240 about what you're recommending. 95 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:42,400 Right. 96 00:04:42,410 --> 00:04:45,690 So you're not just trying to get them to click a link so that you can start the cookie, period. 97 00:04:45,990 --> 00:04:46,980 That's the wrong approach. 98 00:04:47,190 --> 00:04:51,570 But just understand that one of the benefits of something like Amazon associates and a number of these 99 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,730 is that once you do actually get them to click the link, then the cookie period starts. 100 00:04:56,750 --> 00:04:59,640 So even if they don't ever purchase the product that you recommended. 101 00:04:59,670 --> 00:04:59,910 But they. 102 00:04:59,970 --> 00:05:00,330 Comeback. 103 00:05:00,510 --> 00:05:03,120 You know, four days later and purchase something completely different. 104 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,110 You're going to get an affiliate commission for what they do purchase. 105 00:05:06,170 --> 00:05:06,420 OK. 106 00:05:06,810 --> 00:05:10,650 And that is so, so powerful because so many people purchase on Amazon nowadays. 107 00:05:10,950 --> 00:05:14,100 And I think there's over one hundred and fifty million prime customers now. 108 00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:16,080 So everybody purchases on Amazon. 109 00:05:16,350 --> 00:05:17,090 It's growing. 110 00:05:17,220 --> 00:05:19,770 It's like it's like the go to e-commerce platform. 111 00:05:19,830 --> 00:05:21,300 So that is super powerful. 112 00:05:21,900 --> 00:05:24,720 And now this kind of touch on other ones that are very, very similar. 113 00:05:24,750 --> 00:05:27,630 Obviously, Amazon Associates is what I'd recommend you build from. 114 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,250 It's the best one out of all of these. 115 00:05:29,460 --> 00:05:32,130 But Walmart's affiliate program is also very, very good. 116 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,470 You can pretty much find anything on Wal-Mart as well. 117 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,530 It's Amazon's direct competitor to skip down a little bit. 118 00:05:37,590 --> 00:05:38,680 eBay has one as well. 119 00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:40,380 So pretty much anything you can find on eBay. 120 00:05:40,590 --> 00:05:42,180 You can join eBay's affiliate program. 121 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:43,950 It's called the eBay Partner Network. 122 00:05:44,500 --> 00:05:46,500 We're going to jump up to S.J affiliate here in a second. 123 00:05:46,510 --> 00:05:48,150 But it's important to understand that. 124 00:05:48,420 --> 00:05:49,520 I didn't need to link these. 125 00:05:49,530 --> 00:05:54,330 These are literally if you just, you know, grab Amazon associates and you search that on Google or 126 00:05:54,330 --> 00:05:58,740 you grab recruit and advertising and you search that on Google, you'll be able to find what those programs 127 00:05:58,740 --> 00:05:59,060 are there. 128 00:05:59,130 --> 00:06:00,440 That's exactly what they're called. 129 00:06:00,460 --> 00:06:00,590 OK. 130 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:06,030 So Amazon Associates, Wal-Mart's affiliate program, eBay's partner network, all great places where 131 00:06:06,030 --> 00:06:08,610 you can draw from the top e-commerce Web sites in the world. 132 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:13,230 Grab any of their products, recommend them get a link for it, and then get a commission if you drive 133 00:06:13,230 --> 00:06:14,920 a sale and recommend that person. 134 00:06:15,510 --> 00:06:20,370 C.J., affiliate or Commission Junction is what it used to be called, is another great place. 135 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,510 Now, S.J affiliate is kind of like a house, so to speak, for a bunch of different companies that 136 00:06:24,510 --> 00:06:25,590 are highly reputable. 137 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,230 So you can pretty much go there once you join S.J affiliate. 138 00:06:28,260 --> 00:06:33,120 Then you can see what companies are on S.J affiliates Web site and then apply to actually join those. 139 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,920 So there's a number of companies that I actually recommend with S.J affiliate, and you'll be able to 140 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:39,210 see that once you kind of join. 141 00:06:39,420 --> 00:06:44,400 But just understand that this is just kind of like a Web site that houses a bunch of affiliate programs 142 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:45,660 for a reputable company. 143 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,670 So it's a very, very valuable place to join. 144 00:06:48,300 --> 00:06:52,860 And another great place where you can actually find more specific and niche specific affiliate programs 145 00:06:53,130 --> 00:06:54,670 like we'll talk about in the future. 146 00:06:54,790 --> 00:06:55,010 OK. 147 00:06:55,270 --> 00:06:56,780 Rakuten advertising record. 148 00:06:56,820 --> 00:07:00,750 It's also a growing up and coming e-commerce platform and Web site. 149 00:07:00,780 --> 00:07:01,950 It's huge in Japan. 150 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,980 It's getting bigger in the US and across the rest of the world. 151 00:07:05,460 --> 00:07:06,110 So join that. 152 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:07,110 That's another great place. 153 00:07:07,140 --> 00:07:11,670 Click Bank is one that we're all going to recommend are all going to recognize excuse me as well. 154 00:07:11,700 --> 00:07:13,680 Another great place to find products. 155 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,210 Pure fly is another great one. 156 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:20,070 Fleck's offers is another great one advantage affiliate networks and other high quality one that's reputable 157 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,210 and so is share a sale. 158 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,350 OK, so like I said, apply to all these, join them all. 159 00:07:25,410 --> 00:07:28,010 Don't just settle for these, but this is a great base. 160 00:07:28,020 --> 00:07:33,570 You can literally build an entire affiliate marketing business with content and YouTube just from these 161 00:07:33,570 --> 00:07:33,790 ten. 162 00:07:33,890 --> 00:07:34,130 OK. 163 00:07:34,410 --> 00:07:35,190 So start here. 164 00:07:35,190 --> 00:07:38,550 These are the top affiliate networks for beginners.
