LinkShare (Blogger Affiliate $$)

I’m continuing my series on Blogger Affiliate Programs today with one of my favorites….LINKSHARE.

Of all the affiliate programs I’ve talked about for Bloggers, there is a reason Linkshare is loved so much.

No Minimum Payout!
That’s right. Most programs have a threshold (some low, some high)…meaning you must earn this set amount before they will pay you. So, you will get your earnings quicker. They pay in cash (check, direct deposit, etc).

Amazing Brands:
Walmart, Office Depot and more. You’ll have the amazing opportunity to earn a bit of extra money with commissions from sales generated by your links. This benefits you and also your readers…..you’ll have access to special deals, offers, and promotions.

With any affiliate program, you will have to provide your personal information. The first question I get asked is WHY? You will be working with them. You will be earning income from them. They must report this to the IRS. So, if you want to earn money on your blog through reputable affiliate programs, you will have to provide either your Social Security number or a Tax ID Number. The first time I did it, I was nervous, but I’ve never run into a problem. I receive checks in the mail routinely from all programs, and just this past month I’ve started getting those tax forms. I only refer you to blogger affiliate programs which I personally use for this blog and can vouch for.

Can you tell me how you generate traffic to your blog, i am fairly new to blogging and i am trying to builder my reader, but i haven’t figured out the best way to do it. Also, how do you come up with all the great give aways? DO you email a bunch of companies? How do you figure out who to email? I am trying to figure out how to make my blog more exciting for my reader. If you can help me please. Thank You, Lori
