My Top 3 Affiliate Marketing Tips

March 9, 2009 by  

What I am about to reveal will probably not make some fellow gurus happy, but this needs to be said:

- No matter what they say about affiliate marketing, it’s virtually impossible for everyone to get those 5,000 – 10,000 dollars a month they are raving on about. The reason? There is simply too much competition! However my fellow gurus are correct on one point: No money will fall into your hands if you are not doing anything to get it there…

I decided to help you get started in the right state of mind, by giving you these high level tips below, that will help you make some money with the different kinds of affiliate marketing programs you can find on the internet.

1. Google Adwords

Some say the days of free traffic are over, but there are still some traffic coming that way, however those hits are surely fading away quickly. You can choose to work hard creating web pages that rank well in the search engines, but still – it’s very hard to do. If you still feel like trying, there are lots of Search Engine Optimization Guides available for you to download, both paid and free.

Simply by paying for clicks with Google (it’s called the Adwords program), you can get the top three positions on the search engines that matter the most – in a matter of minutes. It may come as no surprise to you that there are lots of guides available on how to optimize your google adwords campaigns as well! Did you know that the “engine” that drives some of the traffic is called Adsense? The adsense program allows website owners to put ads on their sites, and when the ads are clicked – the site owner just made some cents online. Most Google Adwords Guides recommend turning off that part of the campaign, due to the click fraud involved, which will give you bad quality, non converting traffic.

2. Your own email list

Building an email list of subscribers is hard, but doable. The task of sending offers to your very own email list is the ideal way to build a residual income online. Instead of sending traffic away and hoping for the best, the best alternative for you (in my opinion) is having your own email list to which you will be able to send multiple offers on periodic intervals. There are lots of autoresponder services that you can subscribe to, and if you feel like having total control, there are several Autoresponder Scripts available for purchase as well.

3. Having Your own affiliate program

Did you know that the gurus are aware of the fact that every visitor that fills out form on your site can generate 50 cent in revenue? What about if you pay someone 25 cents (50% commission) to generate that same amount of traffic, that you would otherwise pay Google to get?

This is the secret most newbies don’t know (and that the gurus don’t want you to know about): Let others generate the traffic you need to make some sales! There are a lot of advantages using this approach, including the fact that now others pay Google to get the traffic for you.

Final Words:

Yes, when it all comes down to it, everything involves paying for traffic in one way or the other. Just remember – in order to make the online income you dream about, you’ll need to invest very wisely in the different kinds of advertising available to you.

To Your Success,

    50 Cents : 3x
    20 Cents: 8x
    1$ coins : 4x

    0.5*3x + 0.2 * 8x + 1*4x = 355
    7.1x = 355
    X = 50

    Number of 50 cents 3x = 150

    I think, Jason, if you understand Google and what it does and how it does it, you will come to an understanding there will not be a "next Google".

    Affiliate Marketing is just one-way to generate an online income, and it can be a very lucrative adventure. If you are looking to generate income online, and have not already explored Affiliate Marketing, it may be the best way for you to start. The best part of Affiliate Marketing is you do not have to have your own product or service. You can advertise, and sell other peoples products and services.

    We have been telling people about HSUS/AR groups for years on end. For some reason they didn't believe it. People need to get mad to get off their duff and start researching. We aren't just talking vegan, we are talking about jobs, economics, businesses, online income, and far, far more. We have noticed that HSUS loves to spout off marketing terms for their campaigns and then repeat them excessively. That is how propaganda works. You hear it enough times, you start to actually believe it?

    The New York Rangers added some depth to the blue line by acquiring veteran defenseman Anders Eriksson from the Phoenix Coyotes prior to the trade deadline on Wednesday.

    Eriksson was sent to the Rangers’ American Hockey League affiliate in Hartford.

    In return, New York gave up goaltender Miika Wiikman and a seventh-round pick in the 2011 draft.

    The 35-year-old Eriksson, a former first-round selection by Detroit in the 1993 draft, had three assists in 12 games with the Coyotes this season. Over 11 NHL seasons, spanning 564 contests, the journeyman has compiled 22 goals and 152 assists with Detroit, Chicago, Florida, Toronto, Columbus, Calgary and the Coyotes.

    You need to make sure first, that Yahoo has Front Page Extensions installed. Next, here is a tutorial on it!

    You said you were getting spam on your guestbook? You should be able to add some sort of spam protection to the guestbook like Captcha. I can't remember the last time I got spam from one of my forms!
