Acing Affiliates (& Products, too!) with Amanda Williams

Welcome back, scholars!

Ready to up your affiliate marketing strategy in 2023? This one's for you. I recorded this interview with Amanda Williams from the travel blogs A Dangerous Business and Cleveland Traveler back in 2021, but the advice is as good as ever. In our chat, we discuss affiliate marketing strategies, how to choose affiliates, what to look out for, and more.

We also talk about products – yes, real, live, physical products – and how to brainstorm ideas to come up with products you can sell through your site. 

In this episode, we also mention a few items I said I'd link, so here they are:

• Recommended affiliate platforms like ShareASale and CJ
• Affilimate, a handy software for tracking all your affiliate sales (I've tried this since our chat but didn't find it worth the investment)
• Printful, a great service for drop-shipping physical products
• Candace Rose Rardon, the artist we mention whose work is inspiring – even if you're not able to commission her for your site
• Amanda's affiliate course, Affiliate Marketing for Travel Bloggers

That's enough homework, right? Class dismissed!
