(Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/693438\/affiliate-marketing-spending\/\" rel=\"\u201dnofollow\u201d\">Statista<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> Getting into the affiliate marketing business can be as easy as slapping together a website with some content. However, actually growing the business to a point where you can earn a decent income is a different matter altogether.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> Let\u2019s be honest, the affiliate marketing industry is growing at relatively decent rates. Since 2015 we\u2019ve observed a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of around 10%. As a whole, the industry is expected to hit $6.82 billion this year in the U.S. alone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> That\u2019s a lot of pie to share &#8211; but the crowd clamoring for pie is growing even fiercer. Because of that, you need concrete strategies and effective tools to stay relevant in this space.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Focus_on_Matching_User_Intent\"><\/span><strong>1. Focus on Matching User Intent<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> As affiliate marketers, none of us are unfamiliar with traditional keyword research. It forms the basis of not just how we build content, but also for our entire site. For this, we already have a formidable stable of weapons at hand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> On one end of the spectrum, we have free tools like Google Keyword Planner, Uber Suggest, and Google Trends. For the more successful, you can move on to premium SEO tools for greater depth, such as SEMRush and Moz.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> In most cases, premium <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shopper.com\/blog\/affiliate-marketing-tools\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tools help affiliate marketers<\/a> to plan more strategically by allowing them to relatively accurately gauge user interests in certain subjects and outline demand in the global market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> Yet the year is 2020 and these tools and strategies are now most readily available. As we advance, so too do the capabilities of search engines like Google. Take for instance the introduction of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mathworks.com\/discovery\/machine-learning.html\" rel=\"\u201dnofollow\u201d\">Machine Learning<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/natural-language\" rel=\"\u201dnofollow\u201d\">Natural Language Processing<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> Thanks to that, Google is now able to have a much firmer grasp on user intent and language. To advance your affiliate marketing business, you have to look towards building content that matches user intent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> Ignore the temptation to coast along on traditional keyword research. As we move along, even building content that feeds low competition keywords will eventually not be enough. Meeting intent isn\u2019t necessarily difficult, but simply a change of concept.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33510 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/2.jpg\" alt=\"Ways to Grow Your Affiliate Business Quote\" width=\"1620\" height=\"810\" srcset=\"https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/2.jpg 1620w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/2-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/2-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/2-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/outgrow.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/2-1536x768.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1620px) 100vw, 1620px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Meeting User Intent 101<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> First of all, meeting user intent doesn\u2019t mean discarding keyword research. It simply means you need to carry out an additional step after. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> One simple thing you can do after you gather keyword data is to perform a search on some of your most critical keywords. Then see what type of content is ranking for the search terms. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"> Ask yourself:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>1.<\/strong> Are there videos content in the search?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>2.<\/strong> Are the result pages filled with special schema markup?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>3.<\/strong> Are the websites ranking well using a lot of pictures in their content?<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>4.<\/strong> What about the length of the content? Are the results filled with long-form articles &#8211; or it\u2019s something short and sweet instead?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> Once you\u2019ve answered those questions, you can check to ensure that your webpage meets these conditions. Just this small extra step will help ensure that you boost your probability of higher ranking for your target keywords.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> If you can\u2019t adequately meet user intent, you may find yourself ultimately wasting money building the wrong content. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> As a small company running an affiliate marketing business, my team and I focus on Transactional content. This is where user action takes place. After all, we (all affiliates, not just us) get paid by driving users to take action, right?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Build_Interactive_Content_%E2%80%93_Increase_Revenue_and_Raise_User_Interests\"><\/span><strong>2.

These interactive tools can be used to capture user attention and most importantly &#8211; drive that last click. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> He who captures the last click before a sale ultimately gets the credit for it.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\"> Historically, at least half of all affiliate marketers agree that the consideration stage is the ideal place in the marketing funnel to use calculators.
