Advice from a successful affiliate:

“In your initial post, you’ll want to use your affiliate link – and every post after that that mentions the eBook…keep a button on your sidebar with the price…Keep your posts casual and authentic. Don’t sound like a commercial or ad. Sell it because you love it, and it will sell.” -Christin, Joyful Mothering

Put the larger banners on your sidebar in a prominent place (above the fold if you really want to do well)

You can find all the banners here.

Send out information about the eBook in your newsletter (if you have one)

Add a picture of the eBook or a banner, or a link telling people about the eBook in your newsletter!

I really, really appreciate you helping me to spread the word-thank you SO much!

Detailed instructions on how to get, link, and use your affiliate link (all free!):

You can be all set up as an affiliate in about 2 minutes if you know what you’re doing, or about 10 if it’s your first go-round

1. Right click the button or banner you like, and “Save As” to your computer.
2. Go to a photo hosting site, such as Flikr or Photobucket and upload the button.
3. Once the button is uploaded, copy the html of your button  On Photobucket, the html will be right below your graphic. You can run your mouse over your graphic and simply click on the html code. In most cases it will automatically copy it. If it doesn’t, you can right click and select “copy”. Be sure all the code is highlighted.  If you’re on Flickr, you will need to click the “Share” button above the graphic. Click “Grab the HTML/BBcode”. Highlight the code and “copy” it. Now paste the button code where you want your button to appear.
4. In another browser window, you want to log in to your E-junkie account, under the affiliates tab. {Click the affiliates tab, then click “log in” under that}
5. Click “Get Affiliate Code”
6. Under ” Select Merchant” , choose Sarah Mae
7. Then click “Get Affiliate Code”
8. A box will appear with the code. You want only a piece of the code. It is the url piece. It starts with http://www.ejunkie.com.… and will finish with your code ID. <a href=”https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?cl=163493&c=ib&aff=XXXXXX” target=”ejejcsingle”>Click here to visit Sarah Mae.</a>
Copy the part as shown here in red. Do not copy the quotes, but what’s inside the quotes.
9. Go back to the page where your button code is. You’re going to replace a piece of that code with this link.
10. Your code might look similar to this:
<a href=”http://s50.photobucket.com/albums/f350/Christin316/?action=view&amp;current=31DaysButton125-plain.jpg” target=”_blank”><img src=”http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f350/Christin316/31DaysButton125-plain.jpg” border=”0″ alt=”Photobucket”></a>

You are going to replace the code in purple with the code you just copied from ejunkie. So highlight the url and simply paste — you can right click and “paste” or hit “control v” on your keyboard. Be sure the URL you’re replacing is highlighted or selected first. Save your widget or post and you’re set to go!
