Is social media a must for affiliate marketing?

[Judee201]

social media plays a vital role in building relationships and reconnecting with friends and family. But, it has also opened diverse doors for the people, who want to make money online. Both small and big businesses have been using social media to promote their services, products and brand. Affiliate marketing is a technique, where other websites and publishers promote your business. An affiliate gets rewarded every time a customer, a visitor or a sale is generated via an advertisement on the website.

Social media is very important, if you're doing anything that has to do with marketing, affiliate marketing is not left. The traffic social media offers to affiliate marketers, bloggers and the host of them can never be underestimated.
Even though there are other methods in which affiliate marketers can drive traffic to their offers, but I think, social media is one of the major players here.

We are now in the era of technology and social media is now the top notch. I have seen many people advertising their products on social media, trying to convince their audience about their products and they are doing well.

Yes! I think social media is a must for affiliate marketing, we all know has emerged to be one of the go-to channels for affiliate marketing. ... Affiliates are no longer required to have a well-known blog or celebrity-status recognition to successfully promote your products, you'll need to reach out to a large set of individuals, how do you intend to do that without social media.

Social media and its influence on today's culture and the way we communicate and share information cannot be denied. In fact there is much more focus that is pnaced on social media than any other form of communication. Affiliate marketing is a very common thing to see on social media platforms. However, is it a must for affiliate marketing?

Think about this. Before there used to be people that went aroudn from house to house providing demonstrations of new products in order to sell the product and this was considered to be a form of affiliate marketing. Do you think that such an approach would still work in this day and age when everything that we do is run by technology?

I think that it may be a nice way to see demonstrations and give the customer face time with the product that you cannot have online, however the number of people that you can reach is quite limited compared to advertising via social media.

Social media have billions of active user everyday and it can easily be used for effective advertisement and affiliate marketing
As millions of people have very easy access to social media so a person can advertise his products on social media.

No, you don't have to use social media in order to be successful at affiliate marketing. Besides, online marketing is not limited to the use of social media. You can run a profitable affiliate marketing business online with just google ad campaigns and an email list, you can also create a blog if you prefer to go that way. These can run smoothly without involving social media and if you want to, you can include it as a bonus.

In my opinion it's not a must to engage in social media for affiliate marketing but it is necessary. This is because there is universal law as to how and where to market a product or service but having an online presence helps your business to grow.

Well yes it is, without it, people won't really know about the existence of your products or even know how to get them, by reviewing them on your preferred platform, you are letting people discover them
