Affiliate Marketing On Facebook – Quick Way To Drive More Traffic To Your Website!
By Franck | January 17, 2012
I must say that I didn’t really jump on the facebook bandwagon yet, although I’m slowly getting there. All I have right now is my personal facebook page.
Today, I was thinking about doing affiliate marketing with facebook, and the first thing I will do is adding a facebook like button to my main affiliate marketing coaching website. If you know me, you know that I’m in the Internet marketing niche and that I promote affiliate products (only good stuff) in the backend.
I will experiment with a facebook like on my homepage (affiliate marketing coaching) and see if my monthly traffic actually increase.
How does the facebook “like” button works?
When someone clicks on the facebook “like” button on your page, it will be automatically added in his wall, and in his friend news feed, with a link back to your site. It’s a super easy way to get more traffic. It’s powerful because it’s more like a recommendation, and his friends may eventually click on the link to find out what more about your site. I know this works because I done this recently. I visited someone’s page, and I followed the links that he liked.
How to add a facebook like button to your website?
This is super easy, and if a tech dummy like me can do it, you can do it too…
1. Go to this page: add a facebook like button
Note: Don’t add the share button because it has been “replaced” with the like button.
2. Configure your button to get the code and add it on your website (it’s step 1). There’s nothing to d0 (I just unchecked the “send” and “show faces” boxes), and click “Get code” when you are done.
3. Follow the instruction in the pop up box
It’s super easy. Once you click “get code”, you will be able to choose between 3 options. I chose the old “html”, and then added the piece of code after my webpage’s <body> tag , and I’ve also added the “like” button code.
I then uploaded my new home page, and I clicked on the like button (yes, I do like my site!). then, I opened my own facebook page, and my site was there. I was pretty surprised that only a few minutes after I refresh the page, I already had 4 likes! Great, people actually like my site.
Now, you can also see how many “likes” you get every day when you add your website at Facebook Insights. Before it works, you will need to add another small piece of code to your website.
Tip: I think that Google will be sad (they don’t really like the fact that facebook took millions of users who should normally be on Google…) I am going to do the same thing with Google Plus. I think Google gives more weight to your website if you add their “Google +” button as well!
