Affiliate Program Software – Series Part 1 Overview
I thought I’d post an overview of what we will be talking about here. As I said in my last post 97% of the people that do affiliate marketing fail and I’ve been told that I’m wrong and that it’s closer to 99%.
Now, if that is depressing information for you then you need to work on your mindset. Because what you will be learning here will put you into the 1% group putting you and your efforts way above your competition.
There are 5 things you must do. Get any one of these 5 wrong and you will most likely fail with your campaign.
- ACTION – Ya, that’s a no brainer but you’d be surprised at how many people download how-to eBooks and systems onto their hard drives and never open them. They just sit there collecting virtual dust. So yes, you must approach this as a business not a hobby and apply action.
- Relevance
- Traffic
- Competition
- Commerciality
Items 2 through 5 above are in reference to Keyword Research and this is where most people drop the ball because it takes day sometimes weeks to do all the research. However, there is a new tool out there that will gather all this information and more with just a few clicks.
The down side of this tool, as an affiliate marketer, is there is no affiliate program for this tool as of yet. The tool, Market Samurai, is still in beta testing, version .86, but when they come out with the full blown package there will be an affiliate program for us to offer. Now the good news is that Market Samurai is in beta form so it’s being offered at a lower price then what the finished product will cost and they also offer a 14 day free trial.
Just for future reference; any product I mention or offer, I personal own and use. I don’t recommend products I haven’t used or liked. From time to time I will mention a product that I haven’t used just to keep you informed but I’ll clearly state that fact. And yes, most of my links are affiliate links because, I’m an affiliate marketer. So, if you choose to buy something through one of my affiliate links, I’d be grateful and let me just say thanks in advance!
We will be going over:
- How to pick a product or niche to offer
- Proper SEO technique – don’t let this scare you, this IS very easy.
- How to set up a WordPress site
- How to drive targeted traffic to your site
- How to monetize you site
- How to get hundreds of bank links to your pages
- And more…
The next post I’ll have a video on the understanding of keyword research.
Until then…
