What Is the Best Way to Promote?
The best way to promote any affiliate link is to know where people who want to sign up for Canva hang out online.
This include but is not limited to the following people:
- Art & Design students
- Bloggers
- Copywriters
- Entrepreneurs
- Marketers
- PLUS, Everybody else interested in any of the topics above
How you promote your link will vary depending on who you decide to target. If you target art and design students, you may join forums or websites that attract them.
Show them something you made with it, tell them to sign up for the free software if they want to create similar things and send them your link.
You can check out the following platforms for all the groups I mentioned above:
- Blogs comments. I don’t recommend that you spam the commentator fields of different blogs related to your niche by sharing your link there. Instead, use an explainer video, and share that link.
- Facebook groups related to the group you want to promote your link. Be helpful, and tell people to check out something else. Still, don’t share your link. Still, don’t share your link.
- Subreddits and Quora threads. You can find relevant people if you know how to do it. Many videos on TikTok and Youtube will show you how you can use these platforms for free to find people.
- Twitter and TikTok. You should follow the blog comment strategy paired with some relevant hashtags for these platforms.
The key to finding success in any affiliate marketing business is to pair the right people with the right offer and if you know where they hang out.
Always remember to be helpful first and promote later.
Following this simple yet proven method will build trust, grow your audience, and hopefully make some money.
How to Find the Right People If You’re Clueless
If you’re clueless, you can use my suggestions above or a search engine by typing “your niche + blog/forum” in it, and you will find tons of opportunities to share with your audience.
Your next step is to sign up and start promoting.
If you read articles like this and don’t do anything, you will not make any money as an affiliate. It is something you need to realize if you are going to profit.
After that, you can share your link with people by answering their questions and promoting it.
Other great platforms to use are:
- Quora
On these forums you can answer other people’s question and then start to promote the link after you have provided a lot of value, and that is a slow, yet proven method that still works, and isn’t frowned upon despite of any algorithmic updates that you may hear of from time to time.
