Lazy Affiliate Marketers - 3 Tips For Better Affiliate Profits
Okay I didn't mean to cause offence when called you lazy.
Maybe just tired so here are three simple but proven tips to help your online affiliate marketing efforts.
If you are an experienced marketer don't look away yet.
A good golfer even a great one will occasionally get lazy or tired and they will need to go right back to fundamentals checking for instance grip, stance, posture, alignment.
I'm not here to talk about golf so I won't mention the fifth fundamental- I'll leave that for the golf niche affiliates.
My point is no matter how experienced you are it's never a bad thing to check your basics.
So here are reminders of 3 basics for better affiliate profits.
1.
Make sure you attract targeted traffic.
Bring to your site the people who are going to be interested in your product.
Make sure your AdWords adverts are relevant to your landing page and vice versa.
Don't forget that paying for advertising is not the only way of generating traffic.
Have you tried keyword research and search engine optimisation? What about article marketing? 2.
Have you been tempted to dump all your affiliate offers into one website, a sort of catch all? Creating a unique site specifically aimed at one offer will significantly improve your conversion.
Don't scrimp on web hosting.
If the cost of hosting is a problem or issue for you try the cheap hosting now available or better still try a host which allows multiple domains at low cost.
Product reviews are always effective methods of marketing.
Why not try comparing two competing products on the same site of course.
Remember however you must comply with the FTC rules that came into force in December 2009 or you might leave yourself open to heavy fines.
3.
Make the most productive use of your online real estate.
Once you have a proven niche and you are getting good traffic to a site consider generating more bang for your buck.
Create a squeeze page or landing page to collect visitor email addresses.
Entice them with a highly relevant unique free report.
Deliver emails via your autoresponder.
Give them plenty of free information to help build rapport and a relationship with your visitor and you'll be able to offer them complimentary high quality cross sold affiliate products.
Explain the benefits not the features of products and let them see how your products can help solve their problem or make life easier or better.
Make sure to keep opt in forms above the fold and if you haven't started looking at this area yet investigate some of the easy ways to put video onto you site.
