Making money with affiliate marketing
I've been contemplating affiliate marketing as a way to get an almost
automatic revenue source without worrying about my own products and
finally I started doing something about it. It's really difficult to weed
through all the e-books and programs available. Through trial and error I
found a great source of info and resources. Those guys know what they are
doing! I got my first affiliate check - about $100 - nothing to rave about
yet, but it's a good start. My short term goal is $100 a day.
UPDATE! I'm up to 1 sale a day now!
You may say: "Big deal!", but you have to realize that I use ONLY free
traffic from the following sources:
1.
TrafficSwarm
2. WebBizInsider
3.
AdlandPro
I will be building some new sites soon. If you think along those lines -
please check:
http://www.wealthyaffiliate.com/
This website has a lot of resources and tools to help you set up your
advertising campaigns easily. They even give you keyword lists that they
use themselves, not to mention recommended products that you can sell
using those lists. I'm quite impressed with the whole deal - you can even
get one-on-one help or ask questions at the private forum. They will even
review your website, help you set up and fine tune your adwords and Yahoo
Search marketing accounts.
Talking about AdWords and other forms of
Pay-per-Click advertising - they can put you "in the money" very quickly, but
even quicker they can empty your wallet, so you better know what you're doing!
Check Adwords Equalizer.
If you don't want to bother with setting up webpages, hosting, creating affiliate links - you better check:
1stPromotion Pro2 System.
You can create professionally looking and working website using their system in about 15 minutes
and you can use your own domain!
Another one worth mentioning is the
Million Dollar
Affiliate - a sort of online e-book with quite good info on all
different phases of setting up your affiliate business. They even give you
a free website with your own reviews of different programs with your own
affiliate links! Quite ingenious. Also - you can be awarded a commission
from a random drawing from any orders entered directly from their website.
What it is lacking is a deeper look into PPC advertising, but hey, the
price is great!
If you prefer to read a book - I'd go for
Beating Adwords. If making money with affiliate programs makes sense
to you - this is probably the best manual to do just that.
