We all know that we can advertise our website on search engines and from there, those interested can visit our site. Often our website is selling products for an affiliate company. Visitors enter the site once they see our ad on the search engine and here they find 1,2,3 or more offers for some products.When someone wants to buy from our site is automatically redirected to the affiliate company website. With that we are pleased to have won money, and our affiliates are also happy to have won money by selling their products.For example Google accept such sites
and we must recognize that they are a good way to make money.In the same time there are many sites that when you click on their ad you are redirected directly to their affiliate company website where you can buy the products you want. Google is trying to get rid of such sites because all they do is to steal money from affiliate without having a well-formed content.There are still search engines that encourages this kind of sites that just because they bring new visitors.If we think better by redirecting our visitors we’ll only confuse the buyers and especially those who are new in the online environement.We can do a better job by hosting the forms and collect leads on our own landing page as opposed to sending them to the advertisers page. We would then pass them on to our advertiser.It is recommended to focus our work on a certain type of products because these sites not only provide real value to internet users but they will also stay profitable for a longer period of time then a typical 1 page affiliate site.
This “Host and post” method can be a great opportunity for all of us and if we want a nice targeted content for our website then this is the time to do this because in the future the affiliate marketing will have an important role in the online environement and probably this method of hosting and posting will be an important factor for our income.
