If you want to become an affiliate marketer who has a huge presence
on the Internet and in your niche, then you have to be very aggressive
and you also need to know certain techniques and methods that are
working for others.
Selling someone else's product is the best way
to start doing business online because it takes all the hard work of
creating a product away from you as well as the idea of dealing with
customer support.
You do have to have some type of web presence
such as a blog or Squidoo lens or simple review page to be able to drive
traffic and get results. If you create Google AdWords Campaigns (which I
would not suggest for a newbie, until they learn the ropes), then you
have to create a sales page or information page to send the traffic to.
You
would set up your own e-mail contact opt-in list form to capture the
e-mail addresses of your visitors and don't leave that up to the product
owner to do. This is important because you will be able to follow up
and also sell other similar products to these same people.
You can
even create your own monthly newsletter and provide additional and
valuable information to your prospects to gain their trust.
An
affiliate marketer's role is important to the product owner because of
the reach that many people have across the internet compared to just one
product owner selling his or her product and trying to get all the
targeted traffic to the website.
This is why Clickbank came into
play. Clickbank saw the need to have a portal where product owners could
position their products for affiliates to find different products in
different niches and I think that was genius. I wish I had taught of the
concept myself. Paydotcom has copied the concept as well, but Clickbank
dominates the Affiliate marketplace.
When these visitors make a
purchase, the owners of the sites pay the Affiliate for generating the
sale. Affiliate Marketers are the people who drive the Internet
Marketing industry. Making money online wouldn’t be as easy if there
wasn’t such thing as an Affiliate Program where people can sign up and
start selling products online in minutes.
Choosing the right
product to sell depends on the keyword search that you have done and
your findings. It is good to find a niche and stick to it. Write
articles, blog posts, and forum posts to gain access to the people that
are searching for those keyword phrases.
To dominate your niche,
you will need to know about your niche audience and the best place to
hang out for that is in the forums that are specific to that niche.
