Super Affiliates and E-mail

December 26, 2007 by Shawn Collins

Q: Is it possible to become a super affiliate without sending a single e-mail campaign?

Shawn CollinsA: Absolutely. E-mail is just one of many methods for marketing affiliate links. There are many super affiliates who don’t use e-mail at all.

For instance, some affiliates run content sites that rely on organic traffic from search engines and other sources.

There are affiliates that concentrate on e-mail, but they’re typically focused on pushing leads vs. retail offers.

Super affiliates run sites based on data feeds, there are bloggers on niche topics, PPC arbitrage players, etc.

Any way you can market online can be leveraged by affiliates, and e-mail doesn’t have to play a role.

E-mail is not essential to make it big as an affiliate, though it makes sense to me to incorporate it in your strategy.

Why not include a double opt-in e-mail list, so you can mail out newsletters or updates to interested folks?
