Your niche affiliate website should be consumer-targeted. It will provide information and content to the people who are interested to purchase the types of products you are offering.

You will have five product pages and may be ten pages with articles, product reviews and comparisons. Use the articles to address the concerns of people in the market for SEO, and include topics that are important to them. They might be side-by-side comparisons, reviews of SEO books and tools, or article topics such as “The Powerful SEO Techniques” and “Ten Ways to Increase Your Inbound Links”.

Now you understand that the information pages are actually playing a more important role than your product pages when it comes to marketing affiliate products through a niche website. So, if possible create more quality and helpful information pages so that you can attract and send as many targeted prospects to your merchants as possible.
