You’re getting hundreds, thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of visitors to your site. Your revenue generation is starting to crank along, but you always have the feeling that your site could be doing more.

What if you could boost your revenue from current site visitors without a ton of extra effort in your digital marketing strategy? While it may sound like magic, it’s not.

Now, there’s something oddly satisfying about finding ways to earn more with what you’ve already built. Think about it—your visitors are already invested in your content, you’ve already got their attention. It feels a bit like spotting loose change under your couch cushions, except—if we’re honest—the payday could be a whole lot better (and you don’t need to vacuum afterward). It’s usually just a matter of giving your audience more of what they’re already looking for, but with a twist that pays you back.

It’s affiliate marketing, and we’re going to walk you through everything you need to execute an affiliate marketing strategy on your site. Let’s dig in.

You might wonder if affiliate marketing is “worth it” in 2025, with everyone and their cousin seemingly hawking products online. Turns out, people still follow recommendations from voices they trust—so if you’ve built any sort of rapport with your readers, you’ve got a running start. Of course, it’s not instant magic. But nudging your revenue up without annoying the folks who actually trust you? That’s the sweet spot, and with some thought, it’s not as elusive as you’d think.
