Once you have your affiliate links, go back and update your old content with your new affiliate links.

12:37 – Step #5: The Two Best Type of Content to Create for Affiliate Promotions

There are two types of content I think you should focus on when you’re beginning to start affiliate marketing on your blog or niche site. The first is what I call “best” posts.

15:04 – The Second Best Type of Content

The second type of content I recommend is a “review” post.

17:11 – Step #6: Optimize Content

Optimize your content for search. I use SEMrush and LOVE it.
