Dig deeper into your affiliate integrations on Instagram
Instagram is a fantastic platform for affiliate marketing. Here’s how to make the most of it:
- Pin posts with affiliate links: Keep them at the top of your feed for maximum visibility.
- Pin stories as highlights: Create a dedicated GetYourGuide highlight so your audience can access affiliate links anytime.
- Use Linktree or similar tools: Organize your affiliate links in a clear, structured way. Add value by including "How-to Guides" to help your audience plan their trips.
Promote your affiliate links on multiple platforms
Expand beyond Instagram to reach your audience wherever they are:
- Travel blog or website: Blog posts are highly effective for conversions. Write about your top-performing destinations and link these posts across your social media.
- YouTube: Create long-form travel videos or experiment with YouTube Shorts to showcase your experiences.
- TikTok: Use TikTok’s discovery-driven algorithm to reach a broader audience with creative, short-form content.
- Other platforms: Think Pinterest, email lists, newsletters, or even e-books—anywhere you can place a link!
Integrate your links naturally within your content
Make your affiliate promotions feel authentic and engaging:
- Build anticipation: Hype up your audience before an experience by creating buzz and mystery.
- Connect with everyday life: Share how GetYourGuide fits into your day-to-day adventures.
- Create urgency: Encourage immediate action by highlighting limited-time opportunities or seasonal experiences.
Introduce GetYourGuide to build brand awareness
Not everyone knows what GetYourGuide is or why they should use it. Help your audience understand:
- Share why you trust and love the brand.
- Highlight your favorite moments from an experience and how it solves common travel problems.
- Answer questions like:
- What are the highlights of this experience?
- Why should my audience book online with GetYourGuide?
Link to the right pages on GetYourGuide
Choosing the right link is key to conversions. Here are some options:
-
Homepage
Perfect for a bio link, offering a general starting point.
-
Destination page
Ideal for posts about specific locations.
-
Search results page
Great for blog posts covering a range of experiences.
-
Point of interest
Best for sharing recommendations on specific attractions.
💡 Pro Tip: If someone makes a purchase within 30 days of clicking your link, you’ll earn a full commission on their entire order! (Learn more in How does the cookie ID tracking work?)
