It seems most internet marketers promote traditional affiliate offers (Clickbank, Amazon, CPA)

Does anyone see value in promoting SaaS (AI writing tools, marketing software, etc)?

How about reselling other companies' software and services (SEO, chatbot builders, web design)?

Or even high ticket referral programs for services rather than white labeling?

What do you think?
 
Saas affiliate programs has a higher degree of shaving compared to clickbank or cpa. Though clickbank vendors have recently started more Shaving.
Ps: this is totally from my experience.
So I will suggest you to stick with Amazon and adsense for small traffic and try to grow your site.
 
Hey man It's been done plenty of times it's just these "e-money gurus" going for general niches. If you run a blog, let's say like me doing creative money-making methods and ideas you'll utilize every single monetization stream.

I mean it's getting done man you just need a target audience. I have links for everything as long it's related to the topic.
In the course of 5+ years there's a top 3 that never disappointed. Automatic (formerly 'WPAutomatic'), Ad Inserter and Pretty Links.

So what do you do? With time you'll learn to which programs you should apply and within like 6 months you'll have an incredibly rich list of affiliate programs that you could draw links to at any given moment. that's why Pretty Links is a favorite of mine. I like keeping things organized to make them easier to use. Just format the titles to links by niche/product+niche+site name etc. and you're set.
(Also ThirstyAffiliates is a great alternative to utilize in your blogs)

Depending on your niche, let's say you make a post about setting up a WordPress site. I already got my Hostinger/GoDaddy/HostGator or whatever link ready to use on my Pretty Links plugin.
Same goes when i'm writing about AI blogging, just research and apply to tools you think or know you're going to recommend and mention.

Let's say you're talking about marketing on social media? Does linktr.ee have an affiliate program? Apply. The best use would be bigger networks like Impact, ShareASale, PartnerStack etc.
Talking business management and else? Find a CRM or any tool related to it and have a link ready for it. You got the point man there are plenty of marketers implying all these in their blogs. All the time.

It's these "gurus" giving everyone the impression but in the matter of fact, that's false. Cause people mostly utilize it on their own blogs.

Oh yeah.. Capterra. Capterra. Capterra. Gotta love it.

Also people create full blown agency websites etc. and either refer to or resell other services as their own. A few years ago they even created a brandable name for reselling services, they named it
"drop servicing" and guess what? people have paid for these courses by simply reselling other services. Crazy. Now you know man it always been this way i'm telling you. Just not as plain as the popular go-to's like CJ, ClickBank, Warrior etc.

Remember Capterra? It's an IMers wet dream. Thing is man when it comes to leads and profits, sometimes it all doesn't make any sense.
SaaS, hosting etc. could bring you massive recurring passive commissions so i see it as a loss not promoting these types of offers. I don't know man maybe you're seeing something i'm missing but promoting high ticket offers and software has been pretty solid for years.

I agree with you that's where the meat at, but in general man i think it's been this way. It's just promoted more via media buying, blogging etc.

Interesting perspective! I wonder why there aren't any OfferVault-like resources for these programs.

Or like Capterra but only for softwares/services with affiliate/white label programs.

Thoughts?

Oh definitely man i think we're either missing something that's already out there now thinking about it we got app sumo and just this weekend i've used a free domain for an adult cam site
White labelling as it should be man it's so effective it's genius but i think you can do it but only via API on some services. But it leaves you dealing with all the technical stuff most of the time.

Thinking about it, some prefer keeping their branding in people's heads but what if thousands rebrand your product and sell it as their own? Man the amount of profit these potential marketing machines can bring to the table is unmeasured. But again, i think some just either don't want or don't have the time or will to develop a proper white labelling program. I mean "child panels" are a thing for a while, which is technically white labelling an SMM reseller's panel.

Maybe AppSumo has something but yeah it's actually digging to find one and OfferVault is the bomb for sure but G/DuckDuckGo is the only way as much as i remember, unfortunately.

I like the way you're thinking man maybe there are downsides i'm not thinking about but overall damn that's the top solid way to gear down on marketing and focus on improving the service.
Tried TravelPayouts back in 2017 so i mean it's there but no "marketplace" and other sources for such programs.

Just hit the big G and a few results down i've found some websites with pretty solid white label offers but i guess time will tell.

You gave me an incredibly simple but effective idea to change the game but i ain't going to mess with it. But i hope someone will read it and pass it over to someone who knows.
What about creating a modular platform FOR brands' white labelling? I know there are scripts, but let's say bit.ly wants a white labelling service. They hit you up and you set up a sub domain section dedicated to hosting their resources and integrate an effective system to customize its branding only leaving A records pointing to the host and you got yourself a bit.ly white labelled website.

I know there are plenty of link shortening scripts online. Making such a thing work effectively could be epic. Thanks to JS and proper web structure these types of websites could become a reality modifying everything from the clients' side. But we'll live and hope to see one. In a few years, i'll consider taking this chance bro but i hope someone else will. It's both time and money consuming.

Yeah but the easiest way to go would be creating a directory for white label offers. Hopefully this will change other brands' approach and hopefully will cheer them up creating white labels so they won't be left behind.

I'll check for some websites for now man doing it with game keys at the moment. But that leaves the design on us. White label services have to be at some level with affiliate offers, but i've never seen it as a popular method. Now i understand what your question was. I mean yeah maybe it died for some reason or maybe it's not as effective in some way but i'm sure there's food on the table, we just didn't find the right table yet.
