Posting Your Articles

The final step in the content creation process is simply to post your articles on your website . Go to “ Add new post ” in WordPress , enter the title and content for your post , and you ’ re ready to go !
You ’ ll want to add some high-quality images to your post . You can search Google for “ free stock images ” or “ free stock photography ” and a lot of sites will pop up for you to explore .
You can also go to sites like iStock to can buy images . Comparatively , sites like Creative Market supply fewer images , but they are in general very nice and artistic , as well as large and inexpensive . Sometimes you will be able to find what you need at Free Images .
You should never steal images from other websites . Not only is it unethical ( how would you like someone making money by stealing the hard work you ’ ve done ?) — using copyrighted material that you don ’ t have permission to use can get you into legal trouble .

Other Types of Content

Articles and blog posts are the most common content types for affiliate marketing , but feel free to branch out and experiment with other media types if they appeal to you . You could look into more visual formats such as :
• Infographics
• Comic Strips / Cartoons
• Video Blogs ( Vlogs )
• Webinars
The main goal is to give your audience something of value to them . Do they want to be entertained ? Do they want a solution to a problem ? Is there something they could really use ?
