Generate Revenue Through Affiliate Sales

Adding a coupons codes page to your WordPress website can be a very effective way of generating revenue. Third party coupons will enable you to make a profit through affiliate sales, so displaying a page of discounts for your website’s niche is a sensible idea.

Visit all the websites in your area of interest to find out if they offer an affiliate program. Once you have joined up as an affiliate seller, you can add the coupon for that site’s products to your coupon page. Each time one of your audience uses that coupon to make a purchase, you will earn an affiliate commission.

Drive Traffic to Your Site

Online shopping is becoming the norm for many. Customers will often search for a coupon for a particular product or store before they make a purchase. Therefore, by advertising coupons on a coupon page, you are likely to attract new visitors to your site who are searching for the specific coupons you are displaying.

Once people have arrived at your site, they will hopefully look around, subscribe with an email address, join you on social media, and ideally return in the not too distant future. You will also earn affiliate commission if they use the coupon that brought them to your site in the first place.

Increase Returning Visitors

Displaying coupons or discounts all together on one page makes it easy for your audience to search for deals. If you include a range of coupons, good deals, and discounts for popular products then your site will become the go-to place for people to search for coupons.

The benefits of this are twofold. Firstly, the revenue you earn from affiliate sales will increase dramatically as more and more people use your coupons when making purchases. Secondly, your site will start to receive regular returning customers. This will create a loyal community of shoppers, that you can rely on to generate your income. It will also help your site rank in the search engines, thus helping to grow your site’s reach and exposure to new customers.
