After the devastating 2020 has ended, we all are longing for changes. And here is when affiliate marketers can catch a truly big fish…if they notice the trends first. Forewarned, forearmed! We collected top affiliate marketing trends for 2021 that can help you find your prospective niches and ad formats.
What are the trends for affiliate marketing verticals in 2021?
verticals will continue to generate leads, while some laggards can uplift their spirits. So which offers you should focus on?
E-commerce
After the pandemic struck, the world began to reshape much faster. Online shopping in some regions became the only way to buy goods and appliances. E-commerce players have quickly adapted to the situation. The US nonstore sales grew by 31,3% in December compared to November 2019. So, in 2021 this trend will keep gathering pace. Seasonal sales are on their way, and nothing seems to dim their success.
COD (cash-on-delivery) offers are still one of the most doubtful, but according to the media, countries like India have successfully returned to this payment method and managed to deliver goods safely.
Sweepstakes
The Sweepstake vertical is called ‘evergreen’, and it will keep this status in 2021. Regardless of income, people are eager for easy money or expensive gadgets. Gift cards and vouchers will also be on top. Keep your eye on those offers with really significant prizes; people will more likely opt in for iPhone 12 than for some home appliances.
Dating
The dating vertical stays among the strongest in all affiliate marketing trends’ listings. Again, no surprise here. With Valentine’s Day as a warm-up, dating offers will keep attracting people who are tired of being imprisoned at home. And if the anti-COVID vaccine succeeds, we will see people going out more often.
Non-mainstream business and entertainment
These are probably the most successful offers on the market. Streaming, VOD offers, camsites have shown incredible growth in demand year by year. In March 2020, when Pornhub decided to encourage all those staying at home and offered its Premium for free, traffic increased by 24.4%.
And guess whose traffic jumped up to 6,2% during the major Zoom outage in August 2020?
Binary and Crypto
Since 2020 left all of us wondering WHY we hadn’t invested in BTC, this niche will carry on surprising us. Recent tweets by Elon Musk have fanned this flame.
There is a strong possibility that CPA crypto offers will soar in 2021. However, people will be more selective about such offers. Promoting crypto and binary offers, pay attention to prelanders and landing pages. They need to be credible, non-misleading, and action-prompting.
