Hi everyone! So today I'm going to be teaching you how to put together an affiliate marketing
00:13
post in the WordPress pages. Now typically we build these at the Content Factory level,
00:19
so right now we are in the Content Factory WordPress, and on the left-hand side we are
00:24
underneath the affiliate marketing tab. The affiliate marketing posts are a little bit
00:29
different than the regular post templates that we've created. This particular post template allows
00:37
us to have individual items that are kind of features in the middle of the articles, and they
00:43
also calculate a page view for every time you scroll down to the next item. So we've customized
00:50
the template to look a little bit different than your regular post template, so I'm going to do a
00:55
walkthrough of the things that you need to do to implement an affiliate marketing post. A couple
01:04
things you're going to need to know is that we're going to go into individual item parts in the next
01:10
couple of videos, but for this video we're going to show you how to do the standard setups and closing
01:17
pieces for the post. So you're going to want a Word document up that you would be using as an example.
01:24
So for this one we're going to be using one that we're recently creating on Fidget Toys. And
01:32
the first thing you need to do is, of course, put in your title. So we're going to take a title
01:36
and add it in at the top here. And the next thing we're going to do is take our description or intro
01:44
paragraph and our disclosure. Now the disclosures are incredibly important. There should be one at
01:50
the beginning and one at the end of each of your articles. So for this you're going to start by
01:57
putting the first disclosure and introductory paragraph into the first WYSIWYG that you're seeing
02:03
here. So we've copy and pasted that in. I always leave a space in between here so this kind of
02:10
offsets each other when it's in the visual form. You won't have these two pieces of copy paragraphs
02:17
bumping up against each other. So the next thing I always do is I make this disclosure a
02:27
headline six. So right now it's coming into paragraph. We want this to display as a headline six.
02:32
So it's a little bit smaller, looks more like a disclosure on the page. This can stay a
02:40
paragraph. And once you've completed this, you get to move on to the fun part of adding the items.
02:46
Now, as I said, we're going to be covering how to add each item in in the next few videos. So you'll be
02:51
seeing all of this in action in the next pieces. But when you finally finished adding all of your items
02:58
in, you will need to add your description for the closing paragraph and the closing
03:08
disclosure. So for this, I'm actually going to take a different article and show you what it looks like,
03:17
because this one is not completed yet. So in your
03:29
article, you've already completed all of your items. And at the bottom here, we are
03:35
we're going to see the disclosure and the closing paragraph. So as you can see here,
03:46
there's the closing paragraph. It is bigger than the copy for the disclosure. Once again,
03:52
we go down here and make sure that this copy can be selected as a headline six. So that's what it's
03:59
displaying as now. You're also going to put in your SEO. So this is where you'll put that in. It's at
04:07
the bottom of the page. And you can also select the author for the article at the bottom. So everything
04:13
can be adjusted right from this particular template. You don't have to go out and do like a quick edit
04:20
on the actual page itself. You can do it right here to do the author. And then a couple other things
04:28
that need to be noted for before you finalize and publish your article is you need to select the
04:34
shopping category underneath the categories tab here. We want to add tags. So in this case, we want
04:42
to add home decor in college for a fidget article. We'd add fidget toys or toys. We only want to have
04:49
one to two tags. You don't need to overload it with tags. Just things that would be the most relevant for
04:55
your article. And then we want to add our collections. So for our collections, we have
05:01
one for each individual format. And we also have a shopping all. So shopping all goes down to our
05:07
must-haves and funfinds.com website. So we want to select this for every single article. And then
05:14
depending on what your article's audience or target audience is, we select what the formats are. So right
05:19
now, this one can go to everybody. That's why you're seeing throwback and hip hop and urban AC.
05:25
We're seeing the shopping for AC and top 40. And this one's not supposed to be in here. So we're
05:33
going to remove that. And we want to select news and sports. So here's all of our formats. We're just
05:43
going to click update at the top and make sure that that's all good. So it's a good thing we came in
05:49
here to check this one. And one last thing, you're going to want to make sure you have your cover photo
05:54
and of course the attributions that need to go on top of that. So once you've done everything for your
05:59
article, when you preview it, you'll see a lovely name of the person who wrote the article, who at the
06:08
date of the publishing is going to be, and you should be able to see your disclosures. As you can see,
06:12
that space that we talked about here in the beginning, super helpful for again, offsetting
06:16
the different texts. And then each individual item is being displayed here. So as you scroll
06:22
through, you get to the bottom, and there is our closing paragraph and our final closing disclosure,
06:33
as well as the newsletter. So this is already built into the template. You don't have to do anything
06:38
additionally. And the last thing you'll see down here is the category and the tags. So that is going
06:45
to do it for your affiliate marketing post. If you need any help with that, you can reach out to me,
06:51
Nicole Basio, at Nicole.Basio at bbgi.com. And we're going to be covering the individual
07:00
product links for Impact, ShareASale, Amazon, and AWIN in the next four videos. So I look forward to
07:08
talking to you then.
