You already have the traffic and readership, but you don\u2019t have something to sell. Instead of spending all that time creating a product, you can recommend similar products to your audience and receive a commission for each sale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Best of all, if you\u2019re dealing with digital products, then the commission you receive will be much higher than the typical commission that\u2019s offered from most physical product retailers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Yet, you might be struggling to find out the best ways you can actually sell and promote these offers to your audience. Luckily, WordPress has your back. There are a slew of great plugins you can use that\u2019ll simplify your affiliate marketing efforts. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Below we highlight five different plugins you can use to bolster your affiliate marketing efforts, or help to get them off the ground.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><em>Note:<\/em> Whenever using third-party plugins, be thoughtful of your resource usage to avoid any surprises from your hosting provider.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s3\">1. <a href=\"https:\/\/codecanyon.net\/item\/wordpress-affiliate-referral-plugin\/5393776\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"s4\">WordPress Referral<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p3\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11505\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/590x300.png\" alt=\"WordPress Affiliate &amp; Referral Plugin\" width=\"590\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/590x300.png 590w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/590x300-300x153.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">In some cases you might not be interested in promoting and selling others\u2019 products, but instead have recruited people to promote and sell your own digital courses and guides.
