Among the many ways to make money on the Internet, projects with referral programs have gained particular popularity. They allow you not only to promote young sites and blogs, but also provide yourself with a stable passive income for a long time. In this article, you will learn what a referral program is, who referrals are and how to earn money from them.
What is a referral program
At its core, the referral program is very similar to a pyramid scheme, where referrers and referrals are its participants. The main difference is that you do not need to invest your own money in the project, but actively work, fulfill the conditions and invite new participants.
By creating sites based on referral programs, webmasters greatly simplify the process of optimization. After all, the users themselves will be engaged in promotion, actively inviting new visitors.
Nevertheless, referral programs are beneficial for both the founders of the project and its participants. After all, the more active users, the more potentialadvertisers and increase the budget. And active referrals are the main engine of the Internet project and a way for referrers to earn money.
Who are referrals and referrers
Referrals are participants of the referral program who have registered in it via an invitation link. The person who invited the referral is called the referrer.
An active referral is a member who not only earns on the project, but also invites new users to his team. Active participants are able to bring huge profits to both referrers and the system itself. For example, a user of an active advertising service (buxa) can earn a maximum of 1-2 dollars per day for viewing advertising pages. But if he invites several dozen referrals who will also view ads, then his earnings will increase several times. After all, for each attracted user, buks pays money and a percentage of his work.
Examples of referral programs
Referral programs can be found in many Internet projects. For example, the most popular Seosprint Runet Books, whose referrals can bring good income to their referrs. The main thing is to be active on a daily basis, view advertising pages and complete tasks. You also need to help ensure that each referral earns daily.
Warface is a famous online game that also has a referral program. And you can earn money from it too. To participate in the projectit is enough for an interested referral to register using a special link. "Warface" is a multi-level game in which it is possible to advance further and receive bonuses only with the involvement of new people.
You can also earn on referrals on review sites, where everyone can share their opinion about purchases and services. The referrer on such a site has the opportunity to receive 15% of the earnings of referrals. With the active invitation of people, you can not even write your own reviews, but simply receive passive income from the work of participants.
How to attract referrals
In order for a referral to come to the project, he must register using the referrer's invitation link. You can distribute such a link absolutely free of charge in several ways:
- Via social networks (create a group or send an invitation link to all friends).
- Through online earning forums.
- Through free message boards.
- Through a personal blog or a site about making money online (free hosting).
The main thing is that the distribution of the link does not look like meaningless spam. With the right and unobtrusive approach, people who want to make money on the Internet will be happy to register using the invitation link.
However, registration alone is not enough to make money on the referral program. It is necessary that the invited users show daily activity. After all, referrals are living people, and the human factor in the form of laziness or lack of time is not alien to them. Therefore if youdecided to start earning in this way, get ready to work hard.
How to keep referrals
Referrals are clients who are quite unstable and dynamic, so the main task of the referrer is to keep them on the project.
To make money on the book with a referral program, you can organize regular contests with cash prizes. For example, which of the invited users will view the most advertising pages in a week will receive a prize of $10. It seemed like a very small amount. But since the vast majority of students and beginners in the field of online business are among the participants of the booklets, even for such a payment, activity will increase markedly.
Books "Seosprint", referrals on which bring a very significant income, provides an opportunity not only to view commercials, but also to perform paid tasks (registration on forums, subscription to social networks, repost). The referrer can take advantage of this and organize a competition for the most completed tasks per day.
It is important to constantly communicate with new users and offer your help. It is possible that inactive participants simply did not understand the interface of the site or cannot withdraw the money they have earned. By explaining the nuances, the referrer will earn a good reputation among his referrals and will be able to increase their activity on the project.
How much can you earn on referrals
Experienced referrers earn on the activity of theirreferrals from 200 to 500 dollars monthly. However, to reach this level of earnings, you will have to work for more than one month, actively distributing your invitation link on the Internet.
If financial opportunity allows, you can invest your own money to buy or rent active referrals from other users. After a few months of work, all the money invested, as a rule, pays off twice.
Referrals are a great source of income on the Internet today, but for high earnings, work on invitation and motivation of new members should be done regularly.
