Hi, I have some products in a website and I want to concentrate on FREE traffic at the moment because I am a struggler and I don't have initial starting fund. I am looking forward to make a name for myself, hence I am looking for free traffic and as soon as I make some money from free traffic, I will immediately reinvest into paid traffic.

I have three issues on this:

1) I created a funny profile in pinterest and created my niche board and pinned around 55+ pins in my niche and followed 250+ people in my niche category but I got no follow back till now. I did put up a good profile pic as its a funny profile account. So, what am I doing wrong? Any tips to improve?

2) I created a niche Instagram profile and I used related hashtags and followed 175 people in my niche but I only received 8 followers back from those follow. Again this didnt work. Any tips on this?

3) I wanted to hire affiliates so talked with clickbank and they said that in order to list product and hire affiliates in clickbank, I first need a landing and thank you page and have to pay 49$ to clickbank so thats a no from me due to fund issue. So, is there any way to get affiliates via FREE affiliate program so that they can get me sales for commission based incentive for every sale? I will pay them for every purchase people make through their link.


So, how do I actually get FREE traffic now to solve this fund issue? I will instantly reinvest the money that I make from this on paid traffic.


Kindly advise me on how to proceed with this.


PS - Thought to explain my situation clearly rather than only saying a part of the issue in that different thread here. So, kindly delete that thread if you want.


Thanks in advance,

patience is something you need. Social media can take time, so stick with it. On your site have a blog and post about related topics, also offer your affiliate program on your site. Look in the journey section on here and see how the pros generate traffic. I wish you well with your project

Thanks for the confidence. Yes about the affiliate program, is there any completely FREE affiliate program? Just need it to give to the affiliates so that they can track the conversion. And will wix or wordpress too?

Promote your product offline, starting from your family members and then friends, then acquintances and eventually strangers. This method is very effective. You will not only get free traffic but also very high converting traffic. This is what I do

Mate, my family dont believe in buying anything online and my friends are stuck in mediocrity with the 9-5 job with no credit card to buy anything online. They also go to local shops to buy haha.

What product do you have that you need affiliates for...? If you have literally zero startup cash it's unlikely you'll be successful if you try to make the jump to advertiser right away. Affiliates aren't free traffic, it's not that easy, in fact it's very difficult to get a single affiliate on board who can send any traffic whatsoever.

That is why mate you can start from buying the cheapest clothes ($1/pcs) that you can buy online and offer it to your family and friends. The fact that they cannot be bothered to check it online means that you can charge premium price (50%-200% markup). After you sold it, you can use it to further buy online. This is easy money ;) . Buy from local supplier for fast delivery

It's t-shirt business. I am looking for affiliates to promote my t-shirts to public. I know affiliates are not free hence I want to give them the link to promote and I will give commission based incentive per every sale, i.e., I will give commission for each sale from his link.

if your product is good enough, your website easy to use and understand you will get them. It may take some time but keep working on it

My products are t-shirts. One more thing, in clickbank I need to give 49$ before to list my items there. Is there any alternate to clickbank where is there no upfront cost?

Moreover, where do I get affiliates from?

Just listing your product on Clickbank isn't going to get you affiliates. I don't know, where the fuck can you find marketers who want to sell t-shirts made by someone who is struggling to get a few social media followers? Why would they not just make and sell their own shirts due to the absurdly low barrier to entry? How are you going to convince anyone to spend a single cent promoting your products when you yourself, the owner of the product, has not spent a single cent or made a single sale? Focus on selling your own shirts first, or #1 and #2 on your list...
 
If you want quality free traffic there's no better way to get it than start YouTube channel with useful content related to your niche and your product. It takes time, it takes a lot of efforts but if you will make youtube really work for you then you don't even need any paid traffic at all.

I have no experience with that platform, so can't comment on that. Maybe best to build your business first before recruiting, you need a good track record to convince others. Have you tried eBay?

I do have ebay in mind but teespring actually eliminates the need for upfront costs. When a customer buys from them, they print and ship directly to the customer, and then gives us royalty fees. And I cant do that with ebay.

I have just found this site, however I have no experience with it. Grab a coffee and look through, if no good it will at least give you an idea for research. Not affiliate link, on mobile so not sure of the bit at the end

usually to get affiliates you'd need to signup thru an affiliate network. Affiliates dont usually run direct unless there is some form of prepayment from non-reputable sources.
