Every affiliate marketer is looking
for exactly what allows those truly successful markets
to make the big affiliate paychecks. It seems at times
to be almost a magic formula! It is not. It's just good
marketing practices that have been proven over years
and year.
These tactics worked before the advent of online marketing
and continue to work in today's online affiliate marketing
world. With these top three affiliate marketing tips,
you should be able to increase your sales within seven
days after implementing all three tips!
1. Use unique web pages to promote each separate
product you are marketing. Don't try to lump
a bunch of products together to save a bit of money
on web hosting. Have a site dedicated to each product
and to nothing else. Include affiliate product reviews
on the website to spell out exactly what the product
will do for the purchaser. Include testimonials from
users who have enjoyed the product and are willing to
allow you to use their names and photos on your website
for that product.
Write articles highlighting uses for the product and
include them on the website as additional pages. Make
the web pages compelling, and include calls to act on
the information. Every headline must attract the reader
to read more. Bullets and highlights of special points
will help the reader who is scanning to learn what the
page is about find that they have to know more!
2. At the very top or top side of your web page,
where it simply can't be missed, offer free reports
to your readers. Then create autoresponder
messages that will be emailed to those who input their
personal information into the sign-up box. Research
has proven that it is usually on the seventh contact
with a prospect that a sale is closed.
With a web page alone, one of two things will happen:
the sale is closed or the prospect will leave the page
and never return. By placing useful information at no
cost into their inbox at periods specified by your,
you will remind them of the product they thought they
might want later, and often will find the sale is closed.
Be sure your content is directed toward the specific
reasons to buy the product, but doesn't come across
as 'sales pitch'.
Fact filled uses for a product and ways that the product
will make life better and more enjoyable; these are
the points on which to focus. Be sure you include a
compelling subject line in the email and don't use the
word 'free' because some of the older spam filters will
cause your mail to be dumped into the junk mail box
before anyone reads it. Convince the reader who signed
up for your free reports that they simply can't live
without your product!
3. Get traffic to your website that is targeted
to your product. After all, if the person who
finds your website has no interest at all in what you
are selling, they will be one of the 99 out of 100 who
move on and never come back without further encouragement.
By writing articles for publication in e-zines and e-reports,
you can locate publications which focus on your target
consumer base and grab their interest.
By writing as few as 2 articles per week, each only
350-600 words in length, you can generate as many as
100 targeted readers to your site in a single day. The
more articles you get out to people, the greater your
chances of closing sales within your targeted audience.
This doesn't sound very difficult, does it? It really
isn't difficult at all. It just requires you to take
a little time and create a plan of action. Use each
of these tips in the order given and you will be prepared
when that flood of targeted traffic hits your website.
Keep in mind, only 1 out of 100 people are likely to
buy your product. If you generate 1,000 targeted hits
to your website per day, that means that you will have
made 10 sales based on statistical average! If you use
these tips for several different affiliate marketing
programs, you can end up having those huge affiliate
paychecks everyone dreams about!
