Basics of Affliate Marketing
Affiliate Marketing Basics: Let's Talk About Traffic
If you are getting started in Affiliate Marketing, the most important thing
you need to learn is hao to get traffic to your site. More importantly, how
and where to get it. Why? Because although it's become somewhat of a cliche these days, the truth is
that the real money is in your list that you are building. If you want to be
successful and make money with your list in the back end, you must start
building a targeted list. Here's why. As an affiliate, what most interests you is to find targeted people who are
interested in your product and what you are promoting , right? In order to
do, you need to write an ad or hire a someone to write it for you and send
people to your Website where they can see and buy the product. But there's a
serious problem with using this method. Do you see what it is?
From 60 to 95% of the people who come to your site and see the product that
they are interested in, are not going to buy the first time. Most people
want to build credibility in you and they often want to her from you in a
couple of emails before making a decision and buying your products. If you're paying for the ad and sending people to the seller's Website, the
ones who don't buy disappear forever. That is why it is important to have an
auto responder and keep up with them through email and later on they will buy
from you if you provide good and beneficiary stuff. Of those who do buy, if you're only sending them to the sales page, you will
have their email and your auto responder will keep up with them. Here's are some good tips:
1. Write ads and send targeted visitors to your squeeze page. A squeeze page
is a single page Website that has one purpose - to convince prospects to give
you their email address. Your Squeeze page should be simple, no flash, no
links, and if you use a graphic or photo, try to keep it simple and make
sure it relates to the product that you are promoting. How do you convince
prospects to give you their email address? By giving them information that
is what they're expecting to find and that's useful to them.
2. Offer them a free report, a free newsletter, an audio or video product or
a free ebook. Just make sure it's related to the niche or affiliate product
you are promoting.
3. After they've opted in to your auto responder, send them to your affiliate
sales page and from there they should buy your product.
4. Follow up with them on a regular basis, mixing good information, free
bonuses from time to time, good content that make them hungry for some more
and add additional affiliate products for them to buy. When you are bringing in some cash from your product, try more products and
more niches and then your business will grow and money grows as well. When
you get the hang of affiliate marketing, you will build more and more
experience and when your list grows your revenue will too. The best thing about this is that you can set most of it up on your
autoresponder, so you turn it into a that runs on autopilot.
There is really NO SUCH THING as a business that runs 100% on autopilot, and
don't believe anyone who tells you differently. Any business, real business,
takes work, effort, and time. But by setting this system up this way, your
autoresponder does the majority of the work, and you will only need to do
simple updates and make sure you keep fresh information flowing.
