Affiliate Marketing for Beginner

Amazon is one of the most popular e-commerce sites today. Most people that prefer online shopping will see something and immediately wonder, and assume, that they can get it off of Amazon. It’s just easier that way. You could start the same business, too. But if you’ve just started, you should try out being Amazon’s affiliate. Get an idea of how the business works by participating in the business without all of the risk involved. You can advertise products that you want without worrying about storing or shipping them. But while you’re learning, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be able to maximize your profits, right?

What You Need

  • WordPress hosted site

  • Plugin builder

  • Amazon associate account

Setup Steps

    Setup

    1. After installing the plugin, click on Profit Builder from WordPress dashboard to see the WP Profit Builder menu.

    2. Click Templates Management to see and choose a template. The Amazon-style Affiliate Review template incorporates the Amazon color scheme, but you can use it for anything other than promoting Amazon products as much as you can use any other template for your Amazon affiliate store.
