Why adding affiliate links or product reviews on a pdf and rank with it instead ranking your own content ?
Why not adding affiliate/ amazon link on your product review page and rank with it?
Moment by the way.....cold traffic does not convert with affiliate products or amazon- right?
So hold on, many media newspapers have affiliate ads on their sites or product reviews like The Indepedent (uk) on their section ("Indi100").
On their product review pages the Buy button goes straight to the merchant site or amazon.
Note: "this is for me cold traffic instead of promoting it via newsletter to subscribers".
Many media newspapers make a lot of many with affiliate products this way- how can that be when this cold traffic does not convert, or ho wcan that be that they not get any google ban, because they have so much affiliate links on their whole site?
Many of them adding multiple affiliate ads in one long form content, expand the content to adding more affiliate ads.....
I not find strudies (pdf) of that topic to know the average conversion rate of media sites, must be a secret ?
I think the ration of their news content and content with affiliate ads/ product reviews will be like 10%, that means they have 500 news posts on their site but only 50 product reviews on a section page (10% of that) so their ratio of affiliate links on their whole site is low in the eyes of google.
What do you think?
