When choosing which affiliate product and program to use on your blog the first think you need to think about is the topic that you’re writing about. Ask yourself some questions like”
* What is my topic?
* What do people come to my blog looking for?
* What is the intent of my readers when they are on my blog?
* What types of products would my readers naturally be interested in buying?
As you begin to answer these questions you should get a feel for the type of opportunities that there are for affiliate programs.
Keep in mind that not all topics work well with affiliate programs and that it might be that they just are not right for your blog. Don’t fall into the temptation of running them just for the sake of it - it might be that you’d get a better conversion by dedicating the space on your blog to advertising programs rather than affiliate programs.
