Introduction
If you’ve ever wondered how to make money online by promoting trending products, this blog post is for you. I’ll walk you through exactly how I made over $14,000 by promoting a viral game—a strategy I’ve never seen anyone else talk about. The best part? You can do the same by following these simple steps. Let’s dive in!
Step 1: Find Viral Games to Promote
The first step to making money online is finding a product that’s already in demand. In this case, we’re focusing on viral video games. The video game industry is booming, with the market expected to hit $312 billion by 2025. Games like Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) are highly anticipated, making this the perfect niche to tap into.
How to Find Trending Games
- Search on YouTube: Go to YouTube and search for “video game news.” This will show you what games are currently trending.
- Analyze View Counts: Look for videos with high view counts. For example, I found videos with 415,000 views, 289,000 views, and even 1.3 million views.
- Choose a Game to Promote: One game I love promoting is Assassin’s Creed. Its trailer has 1.3 million views, and related videos have hundreds of thousands of views, proving its popularity.
Use Google Trends and vidIQ
To double-check a game’s popularity:
- Google Trends: Search for the game’s name and analyze its search volume over the past 30 days.
- vidIQ Chrome Extension: This tool shows how many people are searching for the game on YouTube. For example, Assassin’s Creed has 742,000 monthly searches on YouTube and 21,000 monthly searches on Google.
Step 2: Sign Up for the Amazon Associates Program
Once you’ve identified a trending game, the next step is to monetize it. The easiest way to do this is through the Amazon Associates Program, an affiliate marketing platform that pays you commissions for promoting products.
How to Join Amazon Associates
- Sign Up: Use the link provided in the description to sign up for free.
- Recommend Products: Once approved, you can promote any product on Amazon, including video games.
- Earn Commissions: You’ll earn up to 10% commission on every sale made through your affiliate link.
Finding the Game on Amazon
- Search for the game on Amazon (e.g., Assassin’s Creed).
- Click on the product page and copy your affiliate link using the “Get Your Link” button.
- Save your link in a Google Doc for easy access.
Step 3: Create a Compelling Game Summary Using AI
To effectively promote the game, you need engaging content. Here’s how to create a 1,000-character summary of the game using AI tools like Deepseek.
Steps to Create a Summary
- Copy Game Details: Go to the game’s Amazon page, select all the text (Ctrl+A or Command+A), and copy it.
- Use Deepseek: Paste the text into Deepseek and ask it to create a 1,000-character summary highlighting the game’s best features.
- Edit if Necessary: If the summary is too long, ask Deepseek to shorten it to 1,000 characters.
This summary will be the foundation of your promotional content.
Step 4: Write an SEO-Optimized Blog Post
Now that you have your game summary, it’s time to create a blog post that ranks on Google and drives traffic. I recommend using SEOwriting.ai for this step.
How to Use SEOwriting.ai
- Generate a Title: Enter the game’s name as the main keyword and let the tool generate an SEO-optimized title.
- Customize Settings: Set the tone to “friendly,” target the United States, and choose the “Deepseek R1” model for the best results.
- Include Details: Paste the game summary and any additional details you want the blog post to include.
- Run the Tool: Click “Run Now” and let SEOwriting.ai create a professional, SEO-optimized blog post in seconds.
Add Media and Links
- Images and Videos: Use screenshots or video links from the game’s trailer to make your blog post visually appealing.
- Affiliate Links: Insert your Amazon affiliate link in multiple places throughout the post, especially in a call-to-action (CTA) like “Click here to get this game now!”
Step 5: Publish Your Blog Post on Medium
To publish your blog post for free and start driving traffic, use Medium.com.
Steps to Publish on Medium
- Sign Up: Create a free account on Medium.
- Paste Your Content: Copy the blog post from SEOwriting.ai and paste it into Medium’s editor.
- Add Media: Insert images and videos by dragging and dropping them into the post.
- Publish: Click “Publish” and share your post with the world.
Step 6: Scale Your Strategy
To maximize your earnings, don’t stop at one game. Promote multiple trending games and create content for each one.
How to Scale
- Use Bulk Article Creation: SEOwriting.ai allows you to create up to 100 blog posts at once.
- Promote on Social Media: Use AI tools to create faceless short-form content for platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter.
- Automate Posting: Use tools like Buffer to schedule and automate social media posts.
