If you are blogger who is trying to monetize their blog, chances are that you’ve looked into a number of affiliate programs.
In short, affiliate programs are arrangements in which an online merchant Web site pays affiliate Web sites a commission to send them traffic. These affiliate Web sites post links to the merchant site and are paid according to a particular agreement. This agreement is usually based on the number of people the affiliate sends to the merchant’s site, or the number of people they send who buy something or perform some other action.
One of the few downsides to affiliate marketing is the tedious application process required if you are applying to many programs. One of the ways around this, however, is applying to one of several major affiliate networks, which have established ties with many individual companies.
Although you may need to submit additional info for some of these programs, generally, once you start getting accepted to affiliate programs within an affiliate network, you in turn start getting approved for new affiliate programs. At a minimum, affiliate networks let you apply to many affiliate programs at once with little additional effort required.
One of the best affiliate networks for bloggers is Impact Radius. This article will explore the best affiliate programs on Impact Radius.
Best Affiliate Programs on Impact Radius
This article will discuss the best affiliate programs on Impact Radius for bloggers.
Obviously, it’s impossible for me to recommend the best affiliate programs for a specific blog without knowing its niche, but the programs mentioned in this article are some of the highest paying affiliate programs that are broadly applicable to most new bloggers.
Also, you only need to create one account to apply to all the affiliate programs in this article, making the process much easier!
1. Canva
The Canva Affiliate Program is a great option for most bloggers to promote, because almost every niche requires content creators to create graphics or perform some basic level of graphic design. And Canva is definitely the most popular of these easy-to-use graphic design tools.
Earn up to $36 for each new Canva Pro subscriber that signs-up with your unique referral link. Canva offers regular and flexible payment options.
Additionally, Canva is in the midst of a massive period of growth, meaning this is the ideal time to become an affiliate (there is a huge addressable global market, and Canva is available in 100+ languages).
I’ve personally made hundreds of dollars per month with the Canva affiliate program, and can indeed confirm that the earning potential and the subscriber conversion rate, is very high.
2. Namecheap
Namecheap is another great affiliate program for bloggers.
Namecheap’s affiliate program is great because it contains opportunities to sell a very wide range of products that are applicable to most users who are building or managing a website.
This includes everything from buying a domain name (something that is very “top of the funnel” in terms of applicability) down to more targeted products and services, such as webhosting.
I’ve had some success with this program (it’s closer to $20-$100 per month for me), but I’ve only added the links to a very small portion of my content.
3. Squarespace
Squarespace is a great website builder, and the Squarespace affiliate program offers one of the highest minimum payments for a successful affiliate sale.
The one drawback with this program is that it is generally pretty hard to get accepted to. I actually applied to the Squarespace program when my blog were at a much earlier stage a few years back, and was rejected. However, when I re-applied recently, I was accepted. So don’t give up if you are not accepted to the Squarespace affiliate program the first time!
I just had my first sale through this program (despite only having posted the link on one page)! And it was indeed nice that this sale, despite being on the “low end” relative to the Squarespace offerings, was still $100:
4. Podia
Podia is an all-in-one digital website builder where creators can sell courses, webinars, digital downloads, and community in one place. Because of the popularity of content creators launching their own products (especially courses), the Podia affiliate program is an easy sell!
It’s worth noting that Podia is a relatively new addition to the Impact Radius affiliate program offerings, even though Podia has offered various versions of its own affiliate program elsewhere (mainly on the Podia site), in the past.
Additionally, all Podia users are automatically enrolled in the Refer-a-Creator program. This allows you to earn Podia credit and other rewards for each new Podia customer you refer.
However, the Refer-a-Creator program is not the affiliate program mentioned in this section. The Podia affiliate program in Impact Radius offers 20%+ commissions on upgrades to paid plans, and recurring affiliate revenue on paid plan renewals, making it very lucrative for bloggers.
5. Envato
Envato actually offers three separate affiliate programs through Impact. There is EnvatoElements, Placeit by Envato, and Envato Market.
Envato offers a wide range of fonts, themes, and photos used by bloggers, so this is an excellent program for bloggers to share with their audience.
As seen in the table below, Envato compensates affiliates differently for each of its affiliate programs, so it’s probably best to apply to the program that is most relevant to your audience (although you can apply to all three):
6. Tailwind
Tailwind is a social media marketing and scheduling tool that is used to automate publishing on Pinterest and Instagram.
The Tailwind affiliate program is great for bloggers because almost all content creators struggle with social media marketing, and Tailwind is one of the few well known solutions!
Tailwind is also a great affiliate product to promote because it offers recurring revenue to affiliates, while still remaining at a relatively low price point, making it a very good affiliate program to start with. There is even a free tier!
Tailwind’s affiliate program is also great because the commissions you earn increase the more sales you make!
7. HubSpot
The HubSpot Affiliate Program allows you to earn commission for customer referrals using your unique affiliate link in content such as emails, blog posts, and webinars. Joining the program gives you and your business a simple way to add value to your site and audience while creating new revenue opportunities.
HubSpot’s affiliate program is ideal for bloggers because it has one of the highest average commision payouts ($276), allows affiliates to choose their affiliate structure (15% recurring on monthly sales or 100% flat rate on the first month’s revenue), and it has a long cookie window (90 days).
8. Constant Contact
Constant Contact has one of the longest running (and perhaps most successful) affiliate programs.
Affiliates earn $5 for each referral that signs up for a trial and $105 when they pay for a new account.
The fact that affiliates get paid for free email leads and paid subscribers, really makes this program ideal for new bloggers!
