You have probably heard a lot about affiliate marketing but have you heard about Affiliate marketing Twitter style? For those of you who are unsure about affiliate marketing, it is simply a case of promoting a companies product or services and if someone clicks on one of your affiliate links, which are provided by the company you are promoting, and then makes a purchase, you are automatically credited with a commission payment. Lets say that you have built up your Twitter following to around 2000 and you have become known for offering helpful advice and encouragement along the way. Lets us also say that the theme of this Twitter account is internet marketing so it would be safe to say that this is the subject that the majority of your followers at least have a passing interest in. As an example, if you have been using a particular keyword research tool and you are impressed by the results it is coming up with you could sign up to this products affiliate programme and mention to your followers the great results you have experienced with it. They will want to know more about it and you can direct them to the website through your affiliate link, hey presto, if anyone decides to purchase you get the commission. As long as you are only promoting products that are relevant to the market that you are twittering about and not bombarding your followers with constant links to affiliate sites you will find that the results will be extremely pleasing.
