When you boil it all down, there are only two types of affiliate marketing. In this video, we're going to go over the pros and cons of each, so you can decide which one is best for you and your business.

We're going to talk about the two main types of affiliate marketing. The first type is the classic review content. Now, this is where you create blog posts, blog articles, or videos, for example, comparing two products. So for example, in my niche, the digital marketing space, a common one would be Active Campaign versus Get Response, which are my two top recommended email providers.

Or you could do Click funnels versus lead pages, right? So you're picking a product and you're comparing the two. In other niches you could do these basketball shoes versus these basketball shoes, or you can do this Zuma versus CrossFit.

When you compare two products, usually at the end, you'll do a pros and cons and recommendations on what you think is best.

So a really common path, if you want to go down this route, is building niche websites. That is where all my experience is. I've been building niche websites since the end of 2016. This is where you pick a specific category, a specific niche, and you build an entire website around that category. For example, I had a health and fitness website that I ran that would compare vitamins. Like magnesium versus vitamin C, or there was a best knee brace for running, something like that. So you compare products or you review products, and you want to get those articles ranking in search engines so when someone is searching for their solution, they have knee pain, they're searching for a knee brace. The goal is for your articles to come up in the search engine. They click on your article, they read the article, they click on your affiliate link and they buy the products.
