The 2012 Affiliate Summit AffStat Report has given us some inside on this.
In my last post I mentioned the AffStat Report, which provided a chart of Top 10 Online Affiliate Networks in 2012, Based on a survey from 1,400 affiliates who attended the 2012 Affiliate Summit in August this year.
The Report also found out 12 ways that affiliates were using to drive traffic to their websites. Here's a chart showing the stats:

- Search Engine Optinization (SEO)
- Social Media Networks (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc)
- Blogging
- Email Marketing
- Pay per Click (PPC)
- Word of mouth
- Guest Posting
- Video or Image (Youtube, Google Images, etc)
- Display Advertising
- Offline Marketing
- Comment Marketing
- Other
Quite a thorough list, but I`m surprised offline marketing is at the bottom. If you run a legitimate business, offline marketing is a great way to get the word out and get some nice, targeted visitors directly to your website.
