It starts with the design
A good and thoughtful design is incredibly important. Not only should the design look beautiful, it should guide the visitor through the buying process. It should drive purchases and it should leave an impression on the visitor. In addition, you also want a beautiful design to set you apart from your competitors.
Mobile-first affiliate webshop
The vast majority of searches are done on smartphones and tablets. Your website design should be based on that as well. It all starts with the smartphone and no longer with the desktop. A responsive website is no longer enough.
This ensures that the design will look complete. A responsive website is created as follows: wireframes are created first, then the design is created and then the website is built. If the website looks good on the desktop, all kinds of elements are adjusted and removed so that the design also looks good on the smartphone. With a mobile-first design, things are different. It starts by looking at the most essential elements of the website. These are incorporated into the wireframes and design. Then elements are added to make the website look nice on desktop as well.
The technique of an affiliate webshop
The techniques, links and comparison scripts within the affiliate marketing world change frequently. Therefore, it is extremely important to keep up with the latest developments. Of course, you don't want your shop to break down after a few weeks or for something to go wrong with tracking your sales.
When we talk about the latest techniques, it is mainly about the automated links and complex comparison scripts of affiliate programs such as: Daisycon, Tradedoubler, Zanox and Tradetracker.
SEO, or findability within Google
That your affiliate webshop is fully set up and working is step 1. But then you also have to make sure that your WordPress shop ranks well in Google. Over 80% of all visitors click on the first search result. Therefore, this famous first place means more sales and thus more turnover. SEO consists of several parts: technique, content, authority, conversion optimization and web statistics. Would you like me to help you make your affiliate shop more findable?
