Main PageEasiest Way to Make Cool Cash with Konga Affiliate Program
Konga Affiliate Program is official affiliate
program of Konga.com a Nigerian online
store. Recently I have been asked by my
fellow bloggers of how one could earn
money from one’s blog other than Google
adsense.
Today I introduce Konga Affiliate
Program to you.
The idea is quite simple;
you sign up, promote their products on
your site, when you make sales you earn
a commission. It’s just as simple as that
but several people I have had chats with
on Facebook have complained they
haven’t earned much or nothing since
joining the Konga Affiliate Program.
Konga Affiliate Program – All you
need to know
So I have decided to share some useful
secrets that can help you improve your
sales and earn money promoting Konga
products on your site.
There are few ways you can promote a
Konga product, for bloggers you can
write product reviews or promote via PPC
programs such as Google Adwords,
Addynamo or even Social Media PPC
campaigns even if you don’t own a
website. This is yet another way you can
make money online with Social Media.
So let’s get started with how to set up
Konga Affiliate Program, how to create
affiliate links for products, how to create
or write a product review that converts
and any other useful information on how
to be successful partaking in Konga
Affiliate Program.
1. Sign Up: The first step to getting
started with Konga Affiliate Program is to
sign up with the program. The sign up
process is quite simple, simply click on the
“ Become an Affiliate” and fill the sign up
registration form.
Carefully fill the form providing the
accurate information where required.
Provide your website/blog URL but if you
do not own a website or blog you can
use your social media account and
remember to specify your website/blog
type.
Your commission will be paid to you via
“Bank Wire”, so ensure to correctly enter
your payout information and accept the
“Terms and Conditions” and click the
“Signup” button to complete your sign
up.
Usually you will receive an email from
Konga congratulating you for joining the
Konga Affiliate Program. Konga will
manually review your application and
approve or decline your application. They
often approve registrations if you have a
website/blog or a good social media
influence if you are using your social
media profile as your site.
On approval another email will be sent to
your with your affiliate login details and
login URL from your affiliate manager.
2. Editing your Profile: The next thing to
do is to login to your Konga Affiliate
dashboard and edit your personal
information. You can then change the
default password sent to you here to
something you can easily remember.
3. Creating Affiliate Links for Konga
Products: This is where most bloggers
find it difficult, but I will teach you an
easier way of creating affiliate links for
the Konga products you want to review/
promote.
There are several ways you can create
affiliate links for Konga products, either
by using the Banner & links or DirectLink
URLs. I prefer the later and I will teach
you how to create a DirectLink URL so
you won’t have to create affiliate links
every time you want to promote a Konga
product.
So when you go to “Promotion” and
choose “Campaigns”, you will see Banner
& Links, DirectlyLinks URLs, Ad Channels,
AffLinkProtector and Reports under the
Quick navigation Icons. For now we will
only be interested in Banner & Links and
DirectLink URLs for now.
Banner & Links – When you click on
Banner & Links you will see an already
made banner and links ads created by
Konga for the various categories of
products they sell. Clicking on the “Get
banner code” will reveal the ads code you
can copy and embed on your site. You
can switch between normal and direct
link versions though.
You can also create a “Dynamic link” for
specific products by first copying the URL
of the product you want to review. Let’s
say you want to review the Infinix
Joypad 8S and the URL is http://
www.konga.com/infinix-8s-black, copy
the URL and click on Dynamic link under
any banner or link campaign you want
and paste the URL on it, click the “Get
code” button to generate a script you can
embed on your site to get the banner
displayed.
You can sort the type of ads you want to
embed on your site on the Banner type
section by un-checking the ones you
don’t want and clicking the apply button
to filter.
This process is a little bit complicated for
people; I struggled with it for awhile until
I discovered even an easier way of
creating my Konga products affiliate links.
DirectLink URLs – The DirectLink URLs is a
way of using the product URL as your
affiliate link throughout your website.
You don’t need to generate any dynamic
links, just choose any product you want
to promote from Konga website, copy the
URL and link to on your site. It’s that
simple; in a case where you still want to
promote the Infinix Joypad 8S, all you
need is to link to the URL http://
www.konga.com/infinix-8s-black directly
on your site.
But to be able to do this, you must apply
for a DirectLink URLs on Konga affiliate
Program, if your site is approved you can
now use product URLs as their affiliate
links.
From the Quick navigation Icons
mentioned above under Promotions, click
on the DirectLink URLs. Click on the “Add
URL” and enter your URL using the star
convention pattern *yoursite.com*, for
example if your site is netmediablog.com,
enter *netmediablog.com* on the URL
field and save.
Once your site is approved, you can then
use product URLs as your affiliate link.
Using the DirectLink URLs has several
advantages. Visitors won’t know they are
clicking on an affiliate link and they won’t
have to damage or remove your affiliate
parameters from a link before making a
purchase so you will lose your
commission.
When this is done, the next will be how to
review products to make a sale. In this
article I will be concentrating more on
writing product reviews and driving
sales.
4. Promoting Konga Affiliate Products:Apart from using PPC campaigns to
promote Konga affiliate products, one can
simply write reviews to drive sales. A well
written review can drive hundreds of
sales but the problem is that many people
do not know how to convince someone
to buy their products.
Your reviews must have a good and
convincing sales pitch to it. You have to
inspire/provoke someone to buy a
product after reading your product
reviews.
Here are some of the tips you must apply
on your product reviews to inspire
someone to buy the product so you can
earn your commission.
a. Use large/clear images that best
describe the product
b. Write a sales review and not just a
product review
c. Show the buy now button at least in
two places within the review preferably
after the first or second paragraph and
on or before the last paragraph. Style it to
stand out from the normal text, if
possible use a subheading on it.
d. Specify/highlight the necessary part or
specifications of the product and tell
people why it is the best to buy.
5. Commissions and Payouts:
Konga pay
different commission percentages for
different categories of products.
9% commission on sale of Fashion
products
5% commission on sale of Toys/Kids
products
3% commission on sale of Home &
Kitchen
3% commission on sale of Electronics
products
So depending on the category of
products you promote you can earn
different percentages of commission.
Fashion products earn 9% while
Electronics and Home & Kitchen products
earn just 3%.
This shouldn’t be your criteria for
choosing a product to promote. Ensure
whatever products you promote matches
your niche. You can’t be a tech blogger
and be promoting fashion products, I am
not saying you can’t I am only saying
you shouldn’t.
Ensure to promote products that naturally
match your site niche, that way you
won’t provoke your audience. If you are
a tech blogger you can conveniently
integrate tech products promotion such
as mobiles, computers and other
electronics with your blogging without
making it obvious to your audience you
are trying to sell them a product.
Konga Payout threshold is in 10k, 15k,
20k, 25k and 30k. You may want to
choose the 10k payout threshold for a
start so you won’t have to miss payment
even when you have made over 10k on
your commission pause.
Konga affiliate payments are made on the
second Friday of the new month after
you have met your payout threshold. So
if you chose 10k payment threshold and
you made 10k commission for the month,
you should be expecting your payment
on the second Friday of the next month.
Remember to enter your bank account
details on your profile page to receive
your commissions when it is due.
Conclusion:I hope I have made Konga Affiliate
Program easy to understand and follow.
Now you can start making money from
your blog other than from adsense alone.
Some of you have asked me to do same
for Jumia, I promise to write a
comprehensive tutorial on Jumia Affiliate
program too soon.
While others are writing product reviews,
you should be writing why you should
buy this or that product and earn money
convincing people to buy Konga
products. If you are not promoting Konga
Products then you have been missing a
lot.
