Embedding Affiliate Links In Videos

Thanks to the folks over at AMWSO for this tip:

The video below was taken from Bubbleply.com. The links inside the video – you will see them as pop ups or speech bubbles – are

    not my affiliate links

. They are the originator’s. Chew on that for a moment while you watch the video:

Not only can you insert your own affiliate links and make commissions from your own website, but anyone who decides to embed your video on their site will also be showing it with YOUR affiliate links. Create something truly viral and watch the commissions roll in as your video gets syndicated.

OK, there are a few things stopping that dream from coming true right now. First of all, this site is not nearly as popular as YouTube. Most importantly, however, you don’t upload your videos to BubblePly. It is sort of a “film” that goes over videos from other sites, such as Google Video and YouTube. Ethical? Maybe not… Interesting and promising? Most certainly!

The ability to include affiliate links inside BubblePly video has been around for awhile. I remember reading about it months ago. But I just got around to testing it and have to say I am very impressed.

Hadn’t considered what you said regarding: “anyone who decides to embed your video on their site will also be showing it with YOUR affiliate links.” That’s an added plus. Have a question for ya. Didn’t seem as though it did to me, but do these sort of videos slow your page down any?

I think they do slow your page down some, and wouldn’t suggest overdoing it too much. For instance, you wouldn’t want a whole page of videos. One or two here and there isn’t going to do much harm in today’s broadband world though.

Thanks Everett for answering my question. Nope, at the most I only have one page with 2 of them. The other pages only feature one. Haven’t had any change at all in the amount of time for the page to load. :)
