How to Earn 3500$ from Bluehost Affiliate Program? - And More!

Bluehost's affiliate program is among the most famous affiliate program to earn with, online.

Affiliate marketing is a crazy source to generate amazing amount of revenue from your blogs. The real online business are the ones who either have their own products, promote third party products (affiliate marketing) or offer services to their clients.

Bluehost has been my first ever web hosting that I counted on Alhumdulilah! Very soon, as I trusted their service thoroughly, I become their affiliate and decided to recommend it to everyone around me.

This post goes out for all the brothers and sisters who look forward to jump into affiliate marketing and can't figure out what to promote and earning a decent amount while doing so.

To setup a self hosted website, you need a web hosting. So web hosting is one of the most common affiliate products that people promote online and making a living.

The following post is structured in the form of a FAQ which helps understands the topic better InshaAllah.

What is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is when you promote third party products and when you make a sale, you earn a commission out of those sales.

For example, Bluehost offers 65$ to start with, on every sale a person makes for them. That is a one time payment that they make to you, in a response to a life long customer that you gave to them.

How Do They Track The Sales You Make?

When you become their affiliate, they would give you a dedicated affiliate link, that is unique to you. When you share that with your readers on your blog or anywhere online, and when someones clicks that link, they're redirected to Bluehost's website.

Now if the visitor buy Bluehost's hosting, you would get an email that you just made a sale!

That is a great moment! <3 So all of  your sales are linked to your affiliate link and you get to see all the statistics and sources that brought you sale in your Bluehost Affiliate Dashboard.

How to Become Bluehost's Affiliate?

You can simply head over to the following link and signup for their affiliate program.

[Signup for Bluehost's Affiliate Program ##eye##]

You'd see the following form that you have to fill up. After that you hit 'Sign Up' button and that's all. Your application then goes into approval mode. They'd get back to you via email once your application is approved.

•  Make sure that you have a valid website/blog URL that you have to put in the form. This shows them that you've a serious online presence.

 Meanwhile your application is under approval, you have to fill up Tax Form, which is required to withdraw your earnings.

How to Withdraw Bluehost Affiliate Earnings?

You can withdraw your affiliate earnings via:

1. Paypla
2. WireTransfer (For higher incomes)

How Much Does Bluehost Offer Per Sale?

 By default, Bluehost offers 65$ per sale that you make for them. Though, there are odd cases. They often offer more amount per sign up like 100-125$ per sign up to limited amount of blogs that they feel would be able to bring back more sales initially.

Also, once you start making 5-10 sales per month, they would increase your per sale bounty to over 150-200$ +. You can request that to their customer support and they happy do that :)

Though they need to see the sales stats that you made for them since few last months.

What it Takes to Make 3500$ per Month With Bluehost?

Step #1 Increase per Sale Bounty (Optional/Request)

You can request their customer support to increase you initial bounty to 100$ per sale. (A simple request)

Step #2 Plan to make 35 sales per month. 35 sales = 3500$ per month. (With 100$ per sale).

To make 35 sales, you have the following options:

Use Your Blog

#1 Place Banners

You can use different banners on your blog as shown below. I'll share my personal banners in the following screen shots that I use and also there are tons of free banners in Bluehost's affiliate section that you can use.

You can go to Dashboard >> Banner Or Widgets and find out various banner designs you of various dimensions that you feel would be suitable for your blog.

#2 Write Bluehost Reviews

You can write high quality Bluehost reviews on your blog and use your affiliate links with in the post. The more visitors would read your blog, the more sign up would you get. Generally on average you need 100-150 readers to your blog post (that talks about Bluehost) to make a sale.

Now you can do that maths. Though these numbers are not a surety. If you're into a relevant niche where people would like to sign up for the new web hosting, you'd be surprised to see how many sales you can make easily. InshaAllah.

#3 Write Instant Reviews On Sales

Bluehost often sends the affiliates emails on various holiday occasions for massive discounts that you can offer to your readers. On moments like Christmas, Black Friday, 4th June etc Bluehost sales are amazing!

Even like more than 60-70% off. :)

SO by making the most out of these sales, you can get a huge spike on your affiliate sales by writing a quick blog post on these moments by offering your readers massive discounts :)

#4 Use Google AdWord Ads To Drive to Your Landing Page

I've seen so many people making the most out of Adwords ads to drive traffic to their blogs, that are actually meant to convert that traffic into the sales.

Though this can take quite some iterations to find out the best ad banner that you could use that would convert into your sales.

• [message]
• Be Aware
• You can easily loose quite some money on this one, as Google Adwords is pretty expensive and you can easily loose quite some on that if you don't have the most converting banners.

Conclusion

Hope these insights helped you out. Even if you aim to make 1000$ with Bluehost, I would recommend you to first set a goal. When you'd have a clear goal in mind, you can work upon it and create more blog posts, more video content to market.

A Handy Tip

Never go out of the way to promote any affiliate product you promote. Only soft market it. It's in fact not marketing. It's like helping others. When you take that approach, your blog posts would show the tone you'd take.

Just go out to help your readers with setting up WordPress, offer them services etc, and you'll see sales coming by InshaAllah.

Hope that helped :)

Skimlinks Vs Viglinks - Make Money With Dynamic Affiliate Links

Managing affiliate links is tiresome. Specially when platforms change affiliate links. These 2 platforms are here to help. How cool they are? Lets find out.

If you're into affiliate marketing, you'd know that managing affiliate links can be a hefty task. Here we're with these 2 powerful platforms that have a good news for us - One Incubated by Google, while other is backed by the British Government and other prominent European investors.

I recently published Get Google AdSense Approval: 8 PROVEN Steps - Guaranteed! and then right after that, I posted Google AdSense Alternatives: HIGH Paying & Easy To Signup! v2016. Among those Google AdSense alternatives, I shared Skimlinks and Viglinks.

What Do These Both Platforms Do?

At this point, you might be confused or really looking to find out fast as to how these two platforms can be AdSense alternatives.

Well, our goal is to make money with our blog, and one of the best way to do it is by selling other people's products. It's easy, specially comparing it with the process of product creation and then it's marketing is a whole another story.

In affiliate marketing, we promote products that we believe are relevant to what our readers are looking for and the products we have tested and trust most importantly.

• Starting a blog, coming up with enticing ideas to write regularly is for sure a difficult task in it's own sense, though I would say setting it's income streams on Autopilot mode is even more challenging. [Read more]

For that matter, we can choose various affiliate products from platforms like Clickbank, ShareASale etc.

 The Problem...

The problem is, that we might be using various types of affiliated platforms where we would find the products of our choice and the flavor of our readership. Imagine we're 1000 articles into our blogging journey, and all of them have our affiliate links.

What if a merchant plans to change the affiliate link? It's a disaster! We can't go back to all of those 1000 posts on our blog and update the links. That would crack our back literally!

Also, it's extremely hard to manage your income from all of the different affiliate platforms you're signed up with.

Imagine, those platforms might have 100$ benchmark before they release their payments. And you're upto 80$ mark with all of the platforms with each product you promote? You won't get a penny until you make above 100$ with each!

That's enough to overcome our patience as Blogger! That's cruel...

How Would These 2 Platforms Solve The Problem?

Well, Skimlinks and Viglinks are a huge deal in this regard! These tools help us manage all of our affiliate links, all across your blog.

You just signup with them, get a javascript code installed in your template, and that's all! You don't have to do a single thing extra!

With Skimlinks, we get access of over 20,000 affiliate programs and products and like wise a huge lot with Viglinks too (over 30,000 I believe).

 

Now you'd would think, then what? Well, what we do is that we add certain keywords in their dashboard or we could choose the products we wish to promote. We simply hit save and what they would do is that all of our links related to that product on our blog, would automatically be converted to an affiliate link, from you could earn.

Your actual link that you placed won't change, and the users would still see that original link, though when they would click it, you'd get referral reward.

For Example- The Magic

• [message]
• ##check## Just to make the idea clear, consider this:
• Lets say, I write a sentence about how we can get Bluehost webhosting at super low rate. Notice how I inserted this Bluehost link in this sentence. It's a link to their homepage and is not my affiliate link.

Though if I would use Skimlink or Viglink now, and choose Bluehost as a product from these platforms, they would automatically change this Bluehost link dynamically at the back end with my affiliate link. Meaning by, that when someone would now click this link, I would get paid the affiliate commission out of it.

Now, if in future, Bluehost wishes to change the structure of their affiliate link, I don't have to do anything! It would all be managed by their tool!

That is MAGIC I must say! <3

Advantages Of Using Skimlinks Or Viglinks

So, now that you're getting the idea, lets find more about these awesome platforms and what else they have to offer.

#1 Super Easy Management

We just have to insert normal hyper links in our blog posts as we generally do to link to another resource, and the link would be converted to an affiliate link at the back end.

#2 Hassle Free and Big Time Saver

We don't have to worry about links getting updated or broken from the merchants. They'll be for ever green and working! :> I'm excited about this. In fact, I've already signed up with Skimlinks and waiting to get started.

#3 Your Affiliate ID/Links Would Stay Secure

Many affiliate markers worry about hackers getting to know their affiliate IDs via the links. This way there is a possible chance of cyber attack. With affiliate links generated dynamically at the back end, no one can get to know the affiliate IDs.

#4 All Earnings Under One Hood

This is HUGE! No matter how many different affiliate programs you choose among over 20,000 platforms, all of your earnings would be accumulated under single account! Once that reaches about 20$, you can cashout!

This is really encouraging I believe.

I'm sure by now you'd be thinking how can I get started with this :D

Skimlinks Vs Viglinks - Which To Go For?

Well, this can be a difficult decision though I'll try my best to gather facts and opinions about both of these companies so that it would be easier for you to get started with one. Just to mention, after all of my research up till now, I decided to go with Skimlinks and I'll InshaAllah share my experience with it after few months.

Introduction 

Viglinks is incubated by Google and has over 30,000 affiliate programs. While Skimlinks is backed by British Government and other prominent European investors and has over 20,000 affiliate programs to choose from.

• [vtab]
• #1 Getting Approval & Setup
•  As far as what I read, getting approved by Viglinks doesn't takes time and is an instant process, while it takes about 1-2 days with Skimlinks. (1-2 business days is not much though I believe)
• #2 Analytics
•  Viglinks is known to be superior in it's analytics and it can even provide in depth information on what products are being sold via what links on your blog. Skimlinks is shy on that. Analytics is generally the plus of Viglinks.
  
  
  
• #3 Minimum Payout
•  With Viglinks, there is no minimum payout balance bar, so you can cashout even with 1$ in account. While, with Skimlinks, we have to have 20$ of sale in account.
  
  
  
• #4 Getting Approval & Setup
•  As far as what I read, getting approved by Viglinks doesn't takes time and is an instant process, while it takes about 1-2 days with Skimlinks. (1-2 business days is not much though I believe)
• #5 Design and User Experience
•  Skimlinks wins on this one as of many people online. Many believe that Skimlinks has a much easy to use layout which makes things pretty easy to handle.
• #6 Customer Service
•  This is a tie I believe. I have read equal number of people saying positive and negative for both. I believe it depends upon personal experience generally.
• #7 Getting Approval & Setup
•  As far as what I read, getting approved by Viglinks doesn't takes time and is an instant process, while it takes about 1-2 days with Skimlinks. (1-2 business days is not much though I believe)
• #8 Terms of Service and Policies
•  Viglinks certainly doesn't have the most clear policies. With over 30,000 affiliate programs, it's not clear which platforms are active and would add up to your earnings. The reason being that some might be available in your country and some not. While Skimlinks merchants are 100% working and any link that is converted on your blog is actually going to add up to your earning.
  
  
  
  
  
• #9 Getting Approval & Setup
•  As far as what I read, getting approved by Viglinks doesn't takes time and is an instant process, while it takes about 1-2 days with Skimlinks. (1-2 business days is not much though I believe)

Hope these points would help you decide between the two companies. I'll defintely give a try to both and will post a detailed review on each InshaAllah!

You can Signup with both the platforms using the link below.

How To Upload HTML Template To Bluehost Using FTP Client (FileZilla)

Uploading HTML templates to Bluehost can be tiring if you're trying to upload every single file using the 'File Manager' on Bluehost Dashboard. File Manager helps you upload one file at a time so it would be messed up if you'd want to upload an entire HTML Template with hundreds of files.

Looking forward to this, you'd need a FTP (File Transfer Protocol) client that you could use to upload bulk files on your web server.

Bluehost is the leading hosting company out there with tons of benefits that I have talked about on various occasions and it's the one I use for BloggingeHow's Subdomains. If you're new and would like to setup your own blog/website, you can read my detailed guide that would help you get started easily.

Back to the talk, you simply need to follow the steps below in order to upload your HTML Template or other files to your bluehost hosting.

Steps To Upload HTML Template/Files to Bluehost Hosting

 #1 Download and Install FileZilla FTP Client.

FileZilla is one of the best and Free FTP Client out there that you can use and is also recommended by Bluehost. It's extremely easy to setup with bluehost.


Download FileZilla. Once. the installation is done, follow the next step below.

#2 Download Bluehost's FileZilla Configuration File.

This is an XML file that you need to download to make the configuration process easy. Otherwise you'd have to configure manually.

Login to your Bluehost Account. Go To "FTP Accounts" options under 'File Management' section.

Under "Special FTP Accounts", simply click on "Configure FTP Client" and it would expand more options as shown in the image below.

 Once FileZilla's FTP Configuration file is download follow the next step.

 #3 Open FileZilla and Configure

Open up FileZilla now and click File >> Import and browse the XML Configuration file your download in the previous step.

Once the importing is done, it will start configuration automatically.

#4 Connect Happily!

Time to connect and log in to your server, go to File >> Site Manager or simply click CTRL + S when you're in FileZilla.

This would open up File Manager. Now click on the FTP profile under "My Sites". Take a look at the image below.

NOTE: Generally when you try to connect for the first time, FileZilla would give error connecting due to the fact that your "Host" name would have a domain for your FTP account and not an IP Address as the image shows above.

The simple solution to that is that you'd have to replace that domain e.g (ftp.yoursite.com) and replace with the IP address of your domain.

(To find the IP address of your domain, you'd have to check back to the email you received from Bluehost when you signed up for your hosting. They would have mentioned it under "Temporary URL". Take a look at the image below)

#5 Upload!

Once the connection is made, simply drop the files into the "public_html" folder and it would automatically start uploading.

Hope this short guide helped you out. Leave out your comments if you face any specific problem.

Take care.
