Since not every seller uses the same affiliate networks (ClickBank, ShareASale, etc.) that I do, as an affiliate, I often turn to search engines to try to find new products to work with.

If I was looking for an ebook on a certain topic, for example, I’d enter

–  [topic] + ebook + affiliate

…into Google to see what products come up that have an affiliate program.  The sellers who use those specific words on their site are the lucky ones since they’re the ones who will appear in the results, and the ones who use “associate,” “referral,” or “partner” instead of “affiliate” won’t.

Don’t just SEO your site for potential customers; SEO it for affiliates, too.  Think of the words affiliates would use to find what you offer online and use those keywords and keyword phrases on your index and ‘Affiliate’ pages and in your META tags.

If you want to see the exact keywords and phrases affiliates are using in search engines, try entering:

–  [your niche] affiliate

…into a keyword tool, like SEObook.
