Making money as an affiliate marketer can be a really hard thing to do. Having said that, there are many people who usually struggle to earn a stable income as an affiliate marketer because the income as an affiliate marketer can be unpredictable. So, how do you earn money as an affiliate marketer?
 
Affiliate marketing works but people sugarcoat it too much. It’s never a magic money. You need traffic and trust to make money from it. I once promoted product without proper audience and made nothing. Now I focus on adding value first.

Well, the fact remains that sometimes affiliate marketing works and sometimes it simply doesn't. You may be generating tons of traffic, but still you may not make anything at all. This also depends a lot on the demand of the product and how you advertise it.
 
You either need a social media accounts with a huge following or a website with a huge traffic. If you meet one of these criteria, you can start promoting affiliate links. Without followers or traffic, you cannot make money as an affiliate marketer.

I believe that you not only need to have a website with huge traffic, in fact, you may also need unique visitors as well on your website as well. Having unique visitors increases the chances of generating sales.

Well,traffic should come from reputed sources like social media, search engines, reputed websites, etc. If you get traffic from reputed sites, you don't always need unique visitors, even the returning visitors can help you generate sales.
 
You need a solid following to make money as an affiliate, and users that will sign up or use your links.
 
The best way to make money as an affiliate marketer is to join social sites, build a huge followers and start promoting affiliate links. Without a big follower base you can't make money.

Well, in many cases, you may also need to have convertible traffic as well that generates sales. In that case, you may also get a much better RPM rate as well by the advertising network. I think that this is a general rule followed by every advertisment network.

Affiliate marketing is a patient game. I tried to push one product some years back, spent data and some money on ads, it was all zero conversion. Traffic alone doesn't mean anything if there is no trust. People don't just click buy like before, everybody is very careful now.
 
If you don't have a good and credible audience to promote your affliate marketing links for them to make purchases using them, you won't see a dime from affiliate marketing. It's why most people first built their mailing list and also social media presence to get it right with affiliate marketing.

That's right. Building an active followers on different social media platforms is very important before anyone can end up saying that they are going to make money via affiliate marketing.
