It's very simple to get started in affiliate marketing; you simply join up for a couple affiliate programs (like ours), wait for approval, and voila! You're an affiliate marketer!
Then comes the difficult part. With your affiliate links, you're actually making money.
Understanding what to do and how to create real affiliate sales is difficult for a beginner.
Everyone on the internet appears to be repeating the same old mantras and advising people to start a blog or a YouTube channel, use sponsored ads, and use social networking. However, the vast majority of new affiliates have no access to any of these resources or to an existing audience. They begin from scratch.
If that's the case, I'd say that collecting your first affiliate commission is the most difficult obstacle you'll encounter on your way to making this a lucrative journey.
To that end, and to make things easier for you, I'm going to share with you three simple strategies that other Fiverr affiliates have used to make their first Fiverr Affiliates transaction.
How Do You Make Your First Fiverr Affiliate Sale?
Here are three techniques you may use right now to make your first affiliate sale:
1. Make explicit service recommendations on message boards.
You'd have to rely on other sites to advertise your affiliate links as a new affiliate with no existing audience.
Forums are one type of platform that is frequently advised as a place to start. Online forums and other content platforms featuring user-generated content (such as Reddit) are frequently free to access, and they draw a significant number of visitors looking for rapid solutions to their problems.
That's where you, as an affiliate marketer, come in: you have to position yourself as a go-between for the person with the problem and the solution (the affiliate product).
Consider the following scenario: you visit a forum and discover a discussion titled "searching for a logo for my restaurant." You can either reply to this topic or send a direct message to the original user, informing them that you know a fantastic logo designer and providing a link to their website.
Your primary goal should be to avoid appearing spammy. Never post affiliate links in new threads haphazardly. Everything you write should be carefully calculated to ensure that you only write on topics that make sense and where you can give value (and not subtract it by spamming the thread).
It's a tight line to walk, but it's the only way you'll be able to stay on those platforms in the long run as an affiliate.
Important note: Before you start posting, make sure you read the forum's terms and conditions. You should only post on platforms where you are permitted to create affiliate marketing and follow the platform's regulations.
2. Create a Pinterest account dedicated to design.
Pinterest is one of the most popular social networking networks in the world, with over 470 million monthly active users.
And, unlike Facebook and Twitter, Pinterest's most powerful feature is its discoverability features. Every day, new Pinterest pages are created, and because of the massive amount of search traffic that passes through the site, they quickly gain traction and impressions.
To get started, all you need to do is sign up for a free Pinterest business account.
Then it's time to consider how you can take advantage of this type of traffic, which is heavily focused on shopping and trends.
What's my recommendation? Create relevant pins advertising the vast array of design and art services available on Fiverr, or assemble a business-oriented list, which tends to do well on the platform and can tie into services such as logo design.
All of the pin creation parts (title, description, tags, and image) are crucial in terms of increasing organic audience reach and determining whether or not it will be seen.

The secret to success on Pinterest is to design attractive pins that attract clicks, and to make sure that those pins promote certain high-quality Fiverr gigs.
Then it's only a matter of scaling the pin and clinging to it. The more pins you have, the better your chances of getting commissions!
3. On Medium, write a high-quality affiliate article.
Getting Google traffic to an affiliate article is undeniably one of the most effective techniques to make affiliate revenue. It's a marriage made in heaven between a need and a solution.
For their own blogs, the majority of people publish affiliate articles. If the blog is brand new, it will take months for those posts to be discovered by Google and gain any traction.
Writing affiliate articles on Medium.com is a lesser-known strategy that doesn't require you to set up your own site but still allows you to profit from Google traffic.
Medium is a popular writing platform that allows anyone to post stories, case studies, and essays with a global audience of more than 100 million people.
But, more crucially, medium is a high-authority website, which means that articles you publish there are indexed quickly by Google and have a better chance of ranking well than a brand-new standalone blog.
What does this all imply for you?
It implies you can use Medium as a platform to post your own Fiverr affiliate content and compete with larger sites for free, without having to create your own blog.
In fact, I've seen Medium posts that made over $1,000 in affiliate commissions every month.
Important note: You can include affiliate links in your articles on Medium, but you must disclose them in the post itself. Make sure you read all of their specific guidelines, which may be found here.
Conclusion
When it comes to affiliate marketing, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. The beauty of this field is how diverse and unique it can be from one individual to the next.
You don't need to follow standard advice to succeed, you don't need to invest money to get started, and you can obtain results even if you don't have an existing following, as demonstrated in this piece.
All you have to do now is be consistent and don't give up, and your first affiliate commission will be on its way.
