Affiliates Can Make Money Without A Mailing List

Many gurus will tell you that the money is in your mailing list. In other words they tell us that if you don't have a list you will never make money online. I used to accept their prognosis until I tested some strategies and discovered that it was not true. Though I agree that it is good to have your own list so that you can follow up with them but it has now been proven that you can still make money without a mailing list. So for those of you out there who have found it difficult to have a mailing list or those of you who don't want to bother about any mailing list, I am happy to inform you that you can make money with the following strategies;

1. Article writing: This is a great way to making money without a list. It is a very exciting strategy. All you need do is start writing articles on topics, skills and products you are familiar with and start submitting them on article directories. I need to tell you that you will have to discipline and commit yourself to writing articles. I normally tell my students that they should write one article per day. One of the most admired Internet marketers recently suggested that you should write up to 50 articles for different products and then submit them at article directories. The importance of this is that many of the directories will quickly index your articles thereby drawing traffic to them. Once the articles are written, go to clickbank dot com and pick a digital product you can promote with the article. Get a domain name and mask it on your affiliate link. Alternatively, create a blog and put your articles on it then draw traffic to the blog. Remember to insert the affiliate link on the blog and encourage your visitor to purchase the e-book.

2. Classified adverts: I can confidently tell you that placing classified adverts on high traffic websites and newspapers is another way you can make money on the internet without having a mailing list.

3. Forums - participating in forums is a great way an affiliate can use in getting traffic to his websites or blog and then make a sale. Do a search on different forums that take care of your niche and start contributing to discussions at the forums. Make sure you put your website in your signature. Some forums do not allow affiliate links but you can get a domain name an redirect to the affiliate links. Though some forums do not also accept this, what you need do is create a blog for that niche and then use it in your signature. It will amaze you the kind of traffic you will get on your website/blog which will then lead to sales of products advertised on the blog.

The above points are in no way comprehensive because there are other very important ways affiliates can use to make money.
