Top WordPress Themes For Affiliate Marketers


When it comes to WordPress Themes there are an infinite sea of options to choose from.
So, one question I get a lot from people just starting out is "What's the best WordPress theme?"
Well, that's kind of subjective, however, I do like to try and at least give people some direction, rather than just sending them back on their way to try and figure it out on their own.
Because, I understand when you're starting out you want to do things "right" and if you're not certain you're doing them right it might hold you back from doing anything at all.

So, below are a handful of the top themes I like to use on my niche affiliate websites...
Thrive Themes - There are actually several themes as well as plugins in the Thrive Themes suite of products. So, if you can just pick one or you can subscribe to the Thrive Membership and get all their themes and products. If you're looking for a specific theme recommendation I like FocusBlog and Luxe.
GeneratePress - This is a very clean, simple, and customizable theme. There is a free option, however I would definitely recommend investing in the Premium version which gives you much more options and customization.
Extra - This is a magazine theme and visual page builder powered by the Divi builder, created by Elegant Themes.
Additionally, if you have the time, you can comb through the thousands of professional WordPress themes on a marketplace like ThemeForest.

The main takeaway is don't stress or spend so much time on selecting the perfect WordPress theme that it distracts you or prevents you from taking action and actually building out your site.
I do spend some time on the frontend trying to select a modern and highly customizable theme that gives me a lot of options, so I can use it for a variety of sites and niches.
Then, once I've found a really versatile theme, I'll usually reuse that one over and over again on multiple sites until I find another theme that I really like.

SEO Strategies For Affiliate Marketing

SEO (search engine optimization) is actually pretty simple. It mainly comes down to two things: on page SEO and off page SEO. On page SEO just means  optimizing your content  to rank for certain keywords. The main elements on the page you want to make sure and include your target keywords are your Title and URL. As far as the body itself don't worry so much about using the exact phrases you're going after word for word... It's more important that you concentrate on providing as much value as possible and writing for humans instead of trying to  keyword stuff  and trying to maintain a certain  keyword density . The other half of the SEO equation is off page SEO. This just means backlinks or  links from other high authority or relevant sites  pointing to the piece of content you're trying to rank. Off page SEO is also pretty simple - it mostly comes down to... The authority of sites linking to yours The relevance of the sites linki...

How To Promote Clickbank Offers Using Bing Ads

One of the oldest, most popular, and easiest affiliate networks to get started with is  Clickbank . And one of the fastest methods of getting results online is paid traffic. PPC (pay-per-click)  is one of the more popular paid traffic sources, especially for beginners. Pay-per-click basically works like SEO (search engine optimization) but on steroids. So, instead of optimizing content perfectly and waiting for it to rank, you just pay to show up. However, when it comes to promoting affiliate offers, or, more specifically,  direct linking to affiliate offers , huge networks like Google AdWords aren't usually that friendly. But, luckily  Bing Ads  is a lot more open to affiliate marketers and allows you to direct link to your affiliate offers. So, if you're just getting started with: affiliate marketing, promoting Clickbank offers, or Bing Ads in general this is something that works. Now, to give yourself a little more of an edge though over all...

How To Engineer Your Own Paycheck With Affiliate Marketing

Years ago I was suckered into an  Amway  pitch... But I did get one valuable takeaway that I still use today. During their spiel, the couple who was trying to persuade me to join Amway explained it like this... "Don't think of Amway as an expense. Because all you're really doing is simply redirecting a few dollars each month that you're spending anyway on household products and purchasing Amway products instead of some of the products that you buy at the supermarket." So, I like to apply this same approach with affiliate marketing. Most products and services pay you in money. However, some reward you with credit toward their product. So, if I'm subscribing to a service like this, I'll do my best to refer enough people on a regular basis to cancel out my subscription cost. One example is a meal delivery service called  HelloFresh . I have to eat anyway and since HelloFresh has a refer program that rewards me in credits towards my subscri...
