Affiliate marketing is one of the easiest and most rewarding ways to earn income online—but only if you use your link strategically.
As an affiliate, you earn a commission on every sale made through your unique affiliate link, so the more places you share it, the greater your earning potential.
The biggest mistake affiliates make? Only sharing their link once or in one place! But here’s the good news: there are dozens of ways to integrate your affiliate link into your content—some of which require little to no extra effort once they’re set up.
This guide will show you how to:
✔️ Set up passive placements so your link keeps earning without constant promotion
✔️ Use high-impact locations to get the most visibility and engagement
✔️ Turn your existing platforms into affiliate income streams
Whether you’re just getting started or looking to optimize your strategy, these placements will help you earn more—effortlessly.
When we talk about passive income with affiliate links, we mean setting up your link in places where it will continue to drive traffic and sales without requiring constant effort.
Instead of only posting your link once in an Instagram Story (which disappears in 24 hours), we’ll show you how to:
✔️ Create long-term placements (like in your bio, website, or pinned posts)
✔️ Integrate your link into content that keeps getting views (like blog posts or YouTube videos)
✔️ Leverage automated systems (such as email footers and booking confirmations)
The goal is to create a multi-channel strategy so that people discover your link naturally—whether they’re watching your videos, reading your emails, or browsing your website.
If you’re promoting your affiliate link across multiple platforms, it’s helpful to have a tool that allows you to share multiple links from a single URL. Platforms like Linktree, Beacons, and Koji make it easy to organize and display all your important links in one place—including your affiliate link.
✅ Gives you a single link to share everywhere (bio, profiles, emails, etc.)
✅ Allows you to feature multiple offers (workbooks, free resources, website, social links)
✅ Keeps your affiliate link accessible without cluttering your content
Add your affiliate link at the top of your Linktree or multi-link page so it’s one of the first things people see!
While this is a great solution when you only have one link placement option, when possible, it’s better to share a direct link to the product for higher conversions. The fewer steps your audience has to take, the more seamless and frictionless the experience—leading to more sales. But if you only have one link option and need to share multiple resources, a multi-link tool is an excellent option!

Now that you have a place to house all your important links, let’s dive into where to strategically share your affiliate link for maximum earnings!
Below is a list of places to share your affiliate link for maximum visibility and sales. Start by integrating passive placements in the platforms you’re already using, then expand by creating valuable content that naturally leads people to your link.
To ensure your affiliate link placements drive consistent sales, follow these key strategies:
✅ Use multiple placements – Don’t rely on just one method. Combine real-time promotion with long-term placements.
✅ Be consistent – Regularly remind your audience about the workbook. Even passive placements need an occasional traffic boost.
✅ Create content around your link – Instead of just dropping the link, make it valuable—a blog post, a video, or a testimonial.
✅ Track your progress – Use tracking tools to see which placements get the most clicks and focus on what’s working.
While passive placements ensure your affiliate link is always accessible, creating active content is what actually drives people to click on it. Think of it like this: Your link placements are your storefront, but your content is what attracts people to walk in.
Here’s why intentional content creation is essential:
✔️ Brings awareness – If no one knows about your link, they won’t click it!
✔️ Builds trust – Content that educates, entertains, or inspires makes people more likely to follow your recommendations
✔️ Funnels the right audience – Content that speaks directly to people who benefit from the workbook increases conversions
Example: Instead of posting just an affiliate link, create a mini video tutorial showing a technique from the workbook and say:
“This exercise helped me gain so much clarity! If you want to try it, grab the workbook here [insert link].”
By actively creating content that speaks to the right audience, you ensure consistent traffic to your affiliate link—leading to more conversions over time.
Transparency is key when sharing affiliate links.
Whenever possible, disclose that your link is an affiliate link to maintain trust with your audience.
✔️ Be upfront – Let people know you may earn a commission if they make a purchase
✔️ Keep it simple – A quick note like “This is an affiliate link, meaning I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you”
✔️ Follow platform guidelines – Some platforms, like YouTube and Instagram, require explicit disclosures in descriptions
By being honest about your affiliate relationship, you build credibility and encourage more engagement with your content.
💡 Start by integrating passive income placements on all platforms you currently use.
💡 Once the foundation is set, create content that attracts your target audience and leads them to your affiliate link.
💡 Track your progress, refine your approach, and keep experimenting with different strategies.
The more places you share your affiliate link, the more opportunities you create for long-term income.
