Create a members only access section on your website. Instead of charging for the exclusive service you can offer it as an added bonus to further encourage the customer to buy your products. Provide two variations of your e-zine so customers can choose if they want ads included with their e-zines or not.

Because some people hate ads included with e-zines and this will give them the option they’re looking for. Dedicate a section of your website for free classified ads. Then you could exchange banner ads with other affiliate websites in your product niche and continue to build financially rewarding partnerships.

Publish your e-zine only on your website. Provide it free of charge as long as your prospects can subscribe to receive it. This will grow your email list, and it will keep you in regular contact with your customers which in turn will come back to you in more ways than one. When you sell a product package you could also sell advertising space.

Although I have mentioned that in my previous articles, I still like to mention it again. The money is in the responsive list of buyers. So building it effectively is one of the key requirements in building a long-term affiliate income.

If you have been in affiliate marketing for some time, you will understand that list usually starts with subscribers. Subscribers are people who will gladly give you their names and email addresses in exchange for your gift as in audio, ebook, video and even software. These will happen through a landing page which you can create out of either website template or blog.

If you treat your subscribers well by giving good quality content even in your gift, chances of them becoming your customers will be higher. That is another key requirement as your customers will share with the people they know and their friends will in turn subscribe to your list as well.
