Welcome to Day #5 of your 10 day Niche Blog Challenge.

You’ve got the major pieces of the puzzle in place, and
today you’ll be putting in one more… an affiliate
link for your niche.

Your blog, as it is now set up, will generate some
cash when visitors click on your Adsense links. But
it’s always nicer to have multiple streams of money
flowing from your site, isn’t it?

So, let’s add another – without having to do any of
the hard work.

Let’s Add An Affiliate Link

What’s an affiliate link?

Briefly, some product owners let others (affiliates)
sell the product for them – and pay them a referral
commission for every sale they refer.

You can be that affiliate – and earn a commission for
each purchase your niche blog visitors make.

How to find a product with an affiliate link?

You can search on ClickBank – www.ClickBank.com -
or one of the other affiliate resources in your
niche market.

Once you find a suitable, related, themed product or
service matching your niche, you can sign up as an
affiliate and get your referral tracking code.

After you get the code, log in to your Blogger.com account.

Click on the TEMPLATE tab and then “ADD A PAGE
ELEMENT” and click on the ‘HTML/JAVASCRIPT’ button.

Into the box, copy and paste your affiliate promotion
code (including your referral link) and SAVE CHANGES.

View your blog to see the changes. Test the link to
see if works correctly.

Now, when you view your blog, you should see the changes
you just made reflected on your blog. You should have
Adsense ads showing up, and a HELP SPREAD CHD AWARENESS
button on the right side of your blog.

You’ll now also see the banner or button for your
niche product that you’re promoting as an affiliate.

If everything looks ok, GREAT. If there’s a problem, like
your Adsense ads or affiliate banner image not displaying
correctly, PLEASE WAIT. It sometimes takes a few hours
for the ads to show up.

If things still don’t look good after a while, you can
either repeat the process to make sure you haven’t made
any mistakes, or post a note on the blog to seek help.

That’s it for tonight, folks

See you again tomorrow
