Newbie's difficult journey in the world of Affiliate Marketing on e-commerce

Harsh reality

Making hundreds of millions from affiliate marketing on e-commerce platforms is not easy, especially for newbies. Commissions on exchanges are usually very low, only about 3-5%, and Shopee is even lower. To earn significant income, you need to generate huge traffic and a high conversion rate.

What do the "big guys" do?

• KOLs on TikTok: KOLs (influencers) with hundreds of thousands to millions of followers can easily direct users to click on a link in their bio to make a purchase.
• Review channels on TikTok: TikTok channels specializing in product reviews can also bring good income if they have a large number of followers.
• Admin of large Facebook groups: Groups with large members and high interaction are a gold mine for sharing links with Shopee, Lazada...
• Large fanpages: Similar to groups, fanpages with a large number of likes are also an effective channel to link products.
• Top websites on Google: Websites that have been promoted to the top of SEO can make money from affiliate marketing, but the competition in this field is fierce.
• Large Youtube Channel: Similar to a website, a Youtube channel needs to have high views to bring significant income from Affiliate Marketing.

So what should newbies do?

1. Focus on other campaigns: Instead of focusing on e-commerce floors, newbies should try other campaigns such as installing apps, loans, insurance, etc. These campaigns are usually more accessible and can bring a steady income through advertising on fanpages.

2. Choose a niche with less competition for SEO: If you want to make a website, choose a niche with less competition to make it easier to SEO and lower advertising costs.

3. Learn to run ads: Combining ads, fanpages, and websites is the fastest and easiest way for newbies to make money.

4. Share links with friends and relatives: If you don't know where to start, share product links with friends and relatives to earn more passive income.

5. Don't chase the spam craze: Don't rush to believe the hype about making easy money with spam. Spam requires in-depth knowledge and skills, which is not suitable for newbies.

If you still want to do e-commerce, try:

• Make product review websites, discount codes, and deal hunting.
• Make a Youtube channel or TikTok product review.
• Build Facebook groups related to products.
• Create websites to watch pirated movies, read pirated stories to attract traffic and then place affiliate links.
• Comment affiliate links to articles on groups, websites, etc.

Final verdicts

To succeed in the field of Affiliate Marketing on e-commerce platforms, you need to build a large and sustainable channel. This is not easy, especially for newbies. However, if you are truly passionate and persistent, success will come to you.
