A “Super” WordPress Theme for Affiliate Marketers

April 7, 2008

WSA-Theme Affiliate marketing is a great way to make money blogging, but with all the different monetization models and all the different theme out there today it’s more difficult than ever to find what you need. That’s why when developing the Super Affiliate WordPress Theme, I had only one group of people in mind - the blogger cum affiliate marketer. The Super Affiliate WordPress Theme is more flexible and ideal for affiliate marketers who get traffic from more than one source, especially via Google AdWords or other PPC (Pay Per Click) ads. If you’re getting free search engine traffic or social bookmarking traffic (from StumbleUpon for example) you can be more relaxed as to where that traffic ends up. In a typical blog layout, a single visitor might get to the content page, but before getting to the end of the content there are so many other links, sidebars, ads and other distractions that they can click on. This means that the ability to tunnel traffic to perform a single action (subscribe, buy, opt-in) is severely limited. Read more
