If you don’t have a website and that’s why you haven’t started yet, you’re missing out on a great opportunity.
This guide is based on real methods that beginners have successfully used, and it’s written from my own experience.
What you’ll learn:
- Ways to Start Affiliate Marketing Even Without Having a Website
- Which platforms to choose and which are best for you
- How beginners can reach $2,000 per month
- Which method fits you best
- How to avoid time-wasting mistakes
- A realistic and clear income plan
How Affiliate Marketing Works (and how we make money)
1. You promote a product or service from a company or a marketplace.
2. You receive a commission each time a purchase is made using your referral link.
Example:
- Product price: $500
- Commission: 20%
- Your earnings: $100 per sale
For example, if you want to reach $2,000 per month, it looks like this (depending on the product price — higher prices = higher earnings):
Simple examples:
20 sales × $100 = $2,000
100 sales × $20 = $2,000
If you put in time and work consistently, you can even earn more.
Choose a Type of Product
Best affiliate products in 2026 that don’t need a website:
- Online courses
- Software tools (AI tools, email tools, design tools)
- Digital subscriptions
- Physical products like fashion, digital goods, home appliances, mobile phones, laptops
Pro tip from experience: Starting with digital products like online courses or AI tools is better than physical products.
Compare and Choose the Best Platform
- YouTube Shorts
- Email + Free Page
Pick one platform to focus on for income.
From my experience, focusing on one platform and growing it is better than splitting attention across multiple platforms.
Short video method:
Post educational videos showing how to use the product or comparing products.
Short videos grow much faster than other methods.
How to make a viral product video:
1. Pick a problem, e.g.: “Which shampoo is best for dry hair?”
2. Compare products or share your own experience with them.
Examples:
After using these shoes for a few days, here is a summary of their key features and benefits.”
“How to properly clean your glasses.”
Post 1–2 videos per day.
At this stage, the most important thing is consistency in creating content, you must post regularly.
Advantages:
- Free traffic
- Fast results
- No technical skills required
- High reach
- High earning potential
Disadvantages:
- Requires consistency
- Some videos fail
- Platform rules can change
Produce Content Designed to Drive Conversions, Not Just Traffic
Content that attracts customers:
- Tutorials
- Personal experiences
- Mistakes to avoid
- Product recommendations
- Before-and-after results
- Comparisons
Content to avoid:
“Buy this now”
Pure ads
Example of good content:
“These shoes solved my biggest problem…”
“My experience after buying these shoes”
How to Attract Visitors
Visitor system:
- Short video or post
- Affiliate link or free page
- Product solves a problem
To earn $2,000 per month:
2 sales/day × $33 = $2,000
1 sale/day × $67 = $2,000
So, you need 1–2 sales per day.
Post 1–2 social media posts daily.
Post 1 high-quality useful post every day.
Common beginner mistakes:
- Directly promoting products on social media
- No niche or topic
- No plan
- Inconsistency
- Low-value content
Social platforms already have traffic.
People trust those who promote products correctly.
