1
00:00:00,150 --> 00:00:04,870
All right, so we're going to 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 --> 00:00:16,320
different products on them and realistically have a bunch of quality products and quality companies

4
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:18,760
that you can recommend and pull from.

5
00:00:18,780 --> 00:00:20,990
OK, so we're gonna cover them all here in a second.

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,330
But what I want to touch on is start with these, OK?

7
00:00:23,610 --> 00:00:29,460
And then branched out to other more specific affiliate programs for your niche and products that you

8
00:00:29,460 --> 00:00:31,320
might want to potentially recommend.

9
00:00:31,330 --> 00:00:36,120
We're going to cover how to potentially find better products and how to find potential affiliate programs,

10
00:00:36,630 --> 00:00:41,270
as well as the different approach and strategy with that and in a coming lecture.

11
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:46,350
So it's OK if you don't understand what I mean by that or how to go about doing that with the process,

12
00:00:46,350 --> 00:00:51,210
you might be thinking like, OK, like I can join all these, but like, how do I know of other programs

13
00:00:51,210 --> 00:00:53,620
or other products that I can recommend within my nature?

14
00:00:54,030 --> 00:00:55,710
That's one of the most common questions that I get.

15
00:00:55,710 --> 00:00:59,480
OK, but we're going to cover that in future lecture, so don't worry about that right now.

16
00:00:59,490 --> 00:01:04,860
I would just recommend that these are the top 10 affiliate networks that you should join if you're a

17
00:01:04,860 --> 00:01:05,300
beginner.

18
00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:08,880
OK, and obviously I recommend joining Nesh specific ones.

19
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:14,280
So not this one once you start getting going, because those niche, the civic ones will pay higher

20
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

21
00:01:19,170 --> 00:01:22,470
affiliate marketing business with content if you do that, OK.

22
00:01:22,950 --> 00:01:27,600
What I'd recommend for all ten of these and there are plenty of them, these are just my opinion on

23
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,540
the top 10 out there currently is apply to all these.

24
00:01:30,540 --> 00:01:37,920
Enjoying all the benefit of networks like this is that they have a number of different products on them

25
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,350
that you can draw from, that you can pull from.

26
00:01:40,470 --> 00:01:43,800
That pretty much comes up with anything that you want to recommend.

27
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,050
You can pretty much find on one of these, if not all of these.

28
00:01:47,070 --> 00:01:49,380
OK, so we'll briefly touch on all of these.

29
00:01:49,380 --> 00:01:51,630
But like I said, apply to all these and join them all.

30
00:01:51,810 --> 00:01:56,400
It's definitely something that you should be doing in the beginning to get your start, get started

31
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,830
and get your feet wet with this business model a little bit.

32
00:01:59,040 --> 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

33
00:02:03,420 --> 00:02:07,970
for higher paying affiliate programs and affiliate commissions, then you want to branch out.

34
00:02:07,980 --> 00:02:10,750
But this should always be your base, right?

35
00:02:10,780 --> 00:02:14,660
This is always like the foundation of your building as a metaphor.

36
00:02:14,660 --> 00:02:14,870
Right.

37
00:02:15,090 --> 00:02:18,740
So I even still use links from these even today.

38
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,960
OK, so don't don't sleep on these in the next lecture.

39
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,160
Want to talk about specifically why I don't necessarily recommend that you stay with these.

40
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:26,400
Right.

41
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:31,110
And that's actually a question that I asked where I answered excuse me in the ask Brian section of this

42
00:02:31,110 --> 00:02:31,470
course.

43
00:02:31,740 --> 00:02:34,470
So I don't recommend that you just kind of settle for these.

44
00:02:34,470 --> 00:02:37,080
It's something that you're going to want to branch out from eventually.

45
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,400
But these are a great starting point.

46
00:02:39,150 --> 00:02:41,460
So Amazon Associates is a great one.

47
00:02:41,460 --> 00:02:44,970
You can find pretty much anything on Amazon and any Amazon product.

48
00:02:44,970 --> 00:02:49,530
You can grab the URL, you can go to Amazon associates, sign up for all of these, and anybody can

49
00:02:49,530 --> 00:02:54,390
sign up for all these and then go to sign up for Amazon Associates, which is Amazon's affiliate program.

50
00:02:55,140 --> 00:03:01,650
Paste that link or paste the ASEAN, which is just the product identifier on Amazon that you can basically

51
00:03:01,650 --> 00:03:05,220
find or literally search for that product within Amazon associates.

52
00:03:05,220 --> 00:03:06,090
And you can find it.

53
00:03:06,090 --> 00:03:06,300
Right.

54
00:03:06,300 --> 00:03:09,930
So anything on Amazon, you can get an affiliate link for through Amazon associates.

55
00:03:10,140 --> 00:03:12,710
Anybody can join and then you can make money that way.

56
00:03:12,730 --> 00:03:18,720
OK, now one of the benefits of Amazon and some of these other ones are the cookie period and the broad

57
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,120
array of products that you can pull from.

58
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,690
So obviously the broad array of products on Amazon is self-explanatory.

59
00:03:24,690 --> 00:03:27,960
You can find millions and millions and millions of products, pretty much anything.

60
00:03:28,170 --> 00:03:32,310
But the cookie period basically states that if your cookie period, we're going to use the example of

61
00:03:32,310 --> 00:03:32,910
30 days.

62
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,

63
00:03:38,070 --> 00:03:40,620
or sometimes it's like 14 days, sometimes 30 days.

64
00:03:40,830 --> 00:03:41,910
They constantly change it.

65
00:03:42,090 --> 00:03:44,010
But we're going to use the example of thirty days here.

66
00:03:44,820 --> 00:03:49,170
So with a cookie period on any one of these and they all have cookie periods, just read the terms of

67
00:03:49,170 --> 00:03:53,700
service and the settings of what your actual settings are as an affiliate.

68
00:03:53,700 --> 00:03:55,260
Once you sign up, it's easy to find.

69
00:03:55,530 --> 00:03:58,350
But let's just assume that you have a 30 day cookie period with Amazon.

70
00:03:59,330 --> 00:04:04,080
So what that basically means is if you pull a product from Amazon Associates and you grab that link

71
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:09,030
and you're planning on creating a video and recommending that product in your YouTube video, if somebody

72
00:04:09,030 --> 00:04:13,800
clicks that link and goes through your link to Amazon, even if they don't purchase the product that

73
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,320
you recommended, your cookie period starts.

74
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:16,570
Right.

75
00:04:16,890 --> 00:04:22,980
So let's say the cookie period is 30 days and then you have 30 days on that person's assuming that they

76
00:04:22,980 --> 00:04:28,950
don't clear their cachet on their browser, 30 days for them to actually purchase a product on Amazon,

77
00:04:28,950 --> 00:04:30,480
and then you would get a commission for that.

78
00:04:30,490 --> 00:04:36,660
So that is so, so powerful, because if even if they don't purchase the product that you recommend,

79
00:04:36,660 --> 00:04:41,580
but you get them to click your link and you don't want to be facetious and disingenuous about what you're

80
00:04:41,580 --> 00:04:42,240
recommending.

81
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:42,410
Right.

82
00:04:42,420 --> 00:04:45,710
So you're not just trying to get them to click a link so that you can start the cookie, period.

83
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:46,980
That's the wrong approach.

84
00:04:47,190 --> 00:04:51,540
But just understand that one of the benefits of something like Amazon associates and a number of these

85
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:56,730
is that once you do actually get them to click the link, then the cookie period starts.

86
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,670
So even if they don't ever purchase the product that you recommended.

87
00:04:59,670 --> 00:04:59,940
But they.

88
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,130
Come back four days later and purchase something completely different.

89
00:05:03,390 --> 00:05:08,400
You're going to get an affiliate commission for what they do purchase and that is so, so powerful because

90
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,650
so many people purchase on Amazon nowadays.

91
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,090
I think there's over one hundred and fifty million prime customers now.

92
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:16,110
So everybody purchases on Amazon.

93
00:05:16,260 --> 00:05:17,090
It's growing.

94
00:05:17,100 --> 00:05:19,800
It's like it's like the go to e-commerce platform.

95
00:05:19,810 --> 00:05:21,320
So that is super powerful.

96
00:05:21,810 --> 00:05:24,740
And now this kind of touch on other ones that are very, very similar.

97
00:05:24,750 --> 00:05:27,660
Obviously, Amazon Associates is what I'd recommend that you build from.

98
00:05:27,660 --> 00:05:29,280
It's the best one out of all of these.

99
00:05:29,430 --> 00:05:32,160
But Wal-Mart's affiliate program is also very, very good.

100
00:05:32,170 --> 00:05:34,470
You can pretty much find anything on Wal-Mart as well.

101
00:05:34,470 --> 00:05:37,550
It's Amazon's direct competitor to skip down a little bit.

102
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:38,690
eBay has one as well.

103
00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:40,380
So pretty much anything you can find on eBay.

104
00:05:40,530 --> 00:05:42,210
You can join eBay's affiliate program.

105
00:05:42,210 --> 00:05:43,920
It's called the eBay Partner Network.

106
00:05:44,470 --> 00:05:46,500
We're going to jump up to the affiliate here in a second.

107
00:05:46,500 --> 00:05:49,530
But it's important to understand that I didn't need to link these.

108
00:05:49,530 --> 00:05:55,200
These are literally if you just grab Amazon associates and you search that on Google or you grab Rakuten

109
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,910
advertising and you search that on Google, you'll be able to find what those programs are.

110
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:00,450
That's exactly what they're called.

111
00:06:00,460 --> 00:06:05,910
OK, so Amazon Associates, Wal-Mart's affiliate program, eBay's partner network, all great places

112
00:06:05,910 --> 00:06:10,590
where you can draw from the top e-commerce websites in the world, grab any other products, recommend

113
00:06:10,590 --> 00:06:12,660
them, get a link for it, and then get a commission.

114
00:06:12,660 --> 00:06:18,330
If you drive a sale and recommend that person, S.J affiliate or Commission Junction is what it used

115
00:06:18,330 --> 00:06:20,370
to be called, is another great place.

116
00:06:20,370 --> 00:06:24,510
Now, S.J affiliate is kind of like a house, so to speak, for a bunch of different companies that

117
00:06:24,510 --> 00:06:25,560
are highly reputable.

118
00:06:25,740 --> 00:06:26,850
So you can pretty much go there.

119
00:06:26,850 --> 00:06:31,680
Once you join S.J affiliate, then you can see what companies are on S.J affiliates website and then

120
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,140
apply to actually join those.

121
00:06:33,150 --> 00:06:37,830
OK, so there's a number of of companies that I actually recommend with affiliate and you'll be able

122
00:06:37,830 --> 00:06:39,240
to see that once you kind of join.

123
00:06:39,390 --> 00:06:44,400
But just understand that this is just kind of like a website that houses a bunch of affiliate programs

124
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:45,720
for reputable company.

125
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,670
So it's a very, very valuable place to join.

126
00:06:48,180 --> 00:06:52,860
And another great place where you can actually find more specific and niche specific affiliate programs

127
00:06:53,070 --> 00:06:54,680
like we'll talk about in the future.

128
00:06:54,690 --> 00:07:00,780
OK, Rakuten Advertising Raccoon is also a growing up and coming e-commerce platform and website.

129
00:07:00,780 --> 00:07:01,980
It's huge in Japan.

130
00:07:01,980 --> 00:07:05,010
It's getting bigger in the US and across the rest of the world.

131
00:07:05,460 --> 00:07:06,120
So join that.

132
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:07,140
That's another great place.

133
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.

134
00:07:11,670 --> 00:07:14,430
Another great place to find products putrefies.

135
00:07:14,430 --> 00:07:15,270
Another great one.

136
00:07:15,270 --> 00:07:20,190
Fleck's offers is another great one advantage affiliate networks, another high quality one that's reputable

137
00:07:20,190 --> 00:07:22,220
and so is share a sale.

138
00:07:22,230 --> 00:07:25,380
OK, so like I said, apply to all these, join them all.

139
00:07:25,410 --> 00:07:26,670
Don't just settle for these.

140
00:07:26,670 --> 00:07:28,020
But this is a great base.

141
00:07:28,020 --> 00:07:33,570
You can literally build an entire affiliate marketing business with content and YouTube just from these

142
00:07:33,570 --> 00:07:34,190
tauke.

143
00:07:34,380 --> 00:07:35,220
So start here.

144
00:07:35,220 --> 00:07:38,490
These are the top affiliate networks for beginners.
