How affiliate marketing works
Affiliate marketing is based on a very simple concept to make money online. The basic idea here is to promote the services and products of other companies’ through your own website. With this in mind, even if you don’t have products of your own, you can still act as a middleman for other companies. This is a proven and tested way to make money online without costing much on your budget. The basic idea is for you to refer customers to your affiliate company’s products. This can be done through reviews, direct references, opinions, short articles etc. With every reference you will need to include a banner or a link ad that will direct the customer to the affiliate company’s site and thus start to make money online with these affiliate links. With every sale that happens in your website, you get to make a good commission. This presents a great way to make extra money online. Some schemes also allow you to earn a commission for every leads that are generated for the affiliate company. This means that even if the sales don’t happen with each click, you still earn a commission!
You can make $200 daily from Affiliate programs with zero capital and I mean it. Even though this process does not require money,it requires a lot of wits,time and energy. Travis Sago calls it Bum Marketing but I call it ‘Zero to Hero Marketing’.Why? It will take you fom zero capital to hero in no time if you implement the information in this post. But,if you don’t,too bad. Knowledge,in itself,will do you no good,but the application of it. So,pick up your jotter and follow me as I take you into the world of ‘Zero to Hero Marketing.’
Step No 1-Sign up for an Affiliate Account at http://clickbank.com, http://commissionjunction,etc. Surf around their marketplace and look for high-paying affiliate programs and then,you join. For instance,you can join a Weightloss Affiliate Program.
Step No 2-You need to come up with article titles relating to weightloss and write those articles. Now,don’t write on any title that does not have between 1000-5000 searches a month,even though this may differ from article directory to article directory. So,how do you know the number of searches? Just use the free Keywords Tool at http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com. If you type in Weightloss,it brings you the number of searches being done on weightloss and the different aspects of weightloss being searched. This takes care of the demand side of the keyword. That is,how many people are searching for what you want to promote as an affiliate?
Now that you know the number of searches being done on the keyword of your choice, go to Google and search for that same keyword you want to use to write your article. At the top of the page,you will see the number of pages that contain the keyword. This takes care of the supply side of the keyword and is an indicator of the size of your competition if you write on that keyword. Now,if there are billions of pages on a keyword you want to target,don’t go for it. You will end up writing article upon article and you will not feature anywhere near the Google First Page. So,go for keywords with low competition.
Step No 3-Once you have found low-competition keywords,write articles on them and then submit them to article directories,such as,http://ezinearticles, http://goarticles.com, http://isnare.com. For instance,going by our weightloss example,there are some low competition keyword phrases,such as,’get rid of excess weight’,'burn excess fat’,etc. I have not searched these keywords and cannot say they are low-competion but I mentioned them to give you examples of how to come up with phrases that you can write articles about. You have to be able to come up with low-competition keywords which will make your articles be on the number 1 slot on Google whenever people search for that keyword or phrase.
Step No 4-Put your Affiliate Link in your Resource Box. That is the about the author info. Now,some article directories allow direct linking to an affiliate site but some don’t,so,you have to check this out. Your resource box can be as simple as this-’If you found the above tips on weightloss useful,you can learn more about weightloss and diets at….your affiliate link or a website must contain info on weightloss.
