Affiliate Marketing Tip – #1 Way to “Capture” Profits
By Nick Bramble

If you have ever tried or are currently trying to succeed with affiliate marketing, I can almost guarantee that your system of trying to make money looks something like this:

1. You decide that you want to make money with affiliate marketing.

2. You sign up free at clickbank

3. You choose the most popular product that you think will make you the most money.

4. You advertise your affiliate link

5. You hope that people join so you can earn money

This is actually what I call the affiliate marketing “Failure Formula.” If you try to make money with affiliate marketing following this same failure formula that most people do, you are guaranteed to fail.

While there are dozens of things wrong with the 5 step process above, I will focus on 2 of the main items left out. In fact, it is estimated that only 2% of all people involved in affiliate marketing use the following two steps on a regular basis. It is no surprise though that they are the most successful 2%.

First mistake: In the scenario above, the affiliate link was advertised directly. You never, ever, ever advertise your affiliate link directly. If you want to have any success in affiliate marketing, you MUST get your own url. You can get a URL for under $10 so there is no excuse for not having one.

Nobody, and I mean nobody is going to click on those ugly clickbank links. In fact, it is estimated that you will get as much as 900% more clicks on your link by using a personal url. Think of what an increase in clicks of 900% can do for your bottom line.

So, all you have to do is purchase your own URL for under $10 and then forward it to your affiliate link, right? WRONG!

Having the url is not enough. If you want to build a successful LONTERM affiliate marketing business, you also need a capture page.

Second Mistake: In the scenario above, all traffic was being directed directly to the sales page. So what happens with all of that targeted traffic that you worked so hard to get to your site? Well, one of two things happens. They buy and you make a one time commission on them. Or, most likely, they stay on your site for 30 seconds or less and leave.

In either case, if you are trying to build an affiliate marketing business, you lose out. In the first case you may be thinking, but wait, I earned some money on that person. This is true. But, if you had “captured” that persons name and email address you could be profiting from that person for years and years on multiple products. It is a proven fact that most of the profits made in affiliate marketing on on the “back end” or in “upsells” after somebody buys so you are losing out on tons and tons of money.

In the second case, you just wasted all of your money and time that you spent on advertsing. If you had set up a capture page, you could have captured the name and email of the prospect before they went to the sales page. Then, you could continue to market to them and eventually create a sale. In affiliate marketing, and in marketing in general, it takes on average 7 exposures for people to buy. If you are only giving them one exposure, you are again throwing money out the window.

So, before you get started in affiliate marketing, it is absolutely necessary to have two things:

1. Your own personal URL (should be specific to the types of products you are promoting).

2. Your own capture page that collects the name and email of visitors BEFORE they go to the sales page. This not only builds a targeted list for you, but it allows you to create more sales, back end sales, up sales, and offer additional products in the future.

Success in affiliate marketing is about making money with the same list over and over again.

Remember, those experiencing the most success in affiliate marketing are doing the 2 things above. Don’t reinvent the wheel. Affiliate marketing is much, much easier when you follow the successful systems that have already been proven for you.

Products

Every affiliate program must have some products to sell. These products may be the physical products which require delivery or some e-products which require the instant downloads after online payment. A good affiliate program must offer a wide range of products to the affiliates to choose from. The programs that have smallest number of products should not be considered. Such programs are not considered to be strong and can collapse any time due to financial crisis. The programs that have thousands of products are usually strong; volume is a sign of their strength. A good affiliate program must offer products of different categories, so that an affiliate doesn’t feel the need to look for another affiliate program if he wants to promote some other type of product.

Organization’s Track Record

Try to learn as much as possible about the track record of the affiliate program you are considering joining. It is very easy to do this. You can use search engines for this purpose. Just type the name of the affiliate program and all available information on the internet on this affiliate program will be in front of you. Also see the testimonials present on the website of the program and look for the number of years for which it has been in business. Avoid the new companies. Strong organizations always display their annual revenue generated. From this you can more easily determine the success of that organization. Also look for the top merchants and affiliates that have joined the organization and what are their reviews about the program.

By answering these above questions you will get a lot of information about the past progress of affiliate programs. In light of this information, you can easily decide which at program you should or should not join.

Support Available to Affiliates

Many affiliates are new in the field of affiliate marketing and they don’t know much about this business. They need guidance and suggestions at every step. On the other hand, the people in the affiliate programs are very experienced and have been in the business for many years. They know the possible difficulties and their solutions.

If you are an affiliate and want to join an affiliate program, always see if they are willing to provide you good support because you may face some difficulty during your business and if you cannot get proper support it can waste your time and money.

Payment

Always check to see what the available methods of payment are offered to the affiliates in each affiliate program. If they are only offering the payments in some special method, then check to see if you use that method. For instance, if an organization pays through PAYPAL, then you should see if you can receive the payment in your country through PAYPAL because PAYPAL is not available in every country.

Conclusion

Don’t join any affiliate program in a hurry. Do proper research and gather all the possible information about the organization, you are going to join. The most important things to consider are their products offered, their payment schedule, their support and previous record. You can gather all of this information by using the search engines and searching the official website of the organization. If the organization been in business for many years, if they have thousands of products to promote, offer good support service, have a good payment schedule and options, then you should join that organization. Avoid the organizations that are new in the business and are not offering a good number of products to promote.

This means that if someone looks at your affiliate link and removes your affiliate id from that link and then uses it to purchase products, you will not be credited. The reason is that merchant will not be able to know which affiliate had sent this buyer. The only way to get credited is the complete affiliate link.

Usually the affiliate link is in this form:

http://www.anymerchantwebsite.com?aff_id=someidlike123

In this URL there are two parts:
a) http://www.anymerchantwebsite.com
It is the link to the merchant website.

b) aff_id = someidlike123
It is the unique affiliate id of the affiliate marketer.

Risk

You can see in the above example that it is really very easy to remove the trailing affiliate id from the affiliate link. Anyone can remove your affiliate id and visit the merchant website to purchase. When this happens, you lose the commission that was rightfully yours. This is a problem for the affiliate marketer.

How to Resolve This Issue

There is a solution for this issue. You can hide your affiliate id in the affiliate URL in a way

Following are these necessary steps:

First of all, set your objective. This means set the amount of money you want to earn every month through affiliate marketing. If you are doing this business as a part time business, then you will need less effort as you want to earn less. On the other hand if you are relying on this business to meet your needs, then you should be prepared for hard work, sometimes working on holidays and giving at least 8-10 hours a day.

After that, search the affiliate programs to select a market to work. There are usually many types of markets for example, health, entertainment, sports etc. Choose the market that is hot and suits your interests.

While selecting a market, look at the benefits they are offering to the affiliate markets. Try to select the market that is hot and which is offering a good profit share to their affiliates.

Before selecting a merchant to be an affiliate for, look at its history. How many affiliates does this merchant already have? What are the opinions of the affiliates with whom he is working? By answering these questions, you will know a lot about the reputation of your merchant. Avoid new merchants and join those who are strong in the market and have been in business for many years with success. It will be easier to promote the products of the merchants who are senior in the field. Customers will feel more at ease to make a purchase from a merchant that has been around for awhile.

When you have chosen a specific market, now it is time to select a product. You will definitely want to add all of the products at the beginning, but it is advised not to do this in the start. If you choose more products in the beginning, you will not be able to focus. Your attention will be diverted to different products. So it is better to choose one product to get the best result from it. When you have started getting the sales you desire and feel comfortable, then you can add more products.

Make your own website. Your website is meant for the business. So it must look professional. It should not be over loaded with heavy graphics and lots of flashy banners. Simple is the best. Try to use light colors. Make a nice header to show your company name and theme. The site navigation must be simple and easy. People should not have any difficulty in searching for a specific page or information. Otherwise they will not re-visit your website.

If you don’t want to invest money in having your website designed for you, then you can get free website design templates. There are many websites on the internet that are offering free website templates. Just visit these sites and choose the template that you like. Fill the template with your own content and upload it on your server.

Your website should have a search box on every page to search your website. This will be a great help for the visitors that want to search a specific product or information on your website.

You can write articles and publish them in the free article directories. You can embed your affiliate links in the text of your articles. If your articles are well formatted, informative and the article directory has large traffic, then you can expect some good traffic to your affiliate links. And you know that more traffic on your affiliate links will result in more sales through your affiliate links.

Conclusion

After joining an affiliate program, you are required to choose the right market, right merchant and right product. After that, choose the right methods to promote your products to become successful as an affiliate.

Affiliate Marketing is a simple but powerful concept. It is known as the easiest and the quickest way of earning on the net.

The basic concept of affiliate marketing is to sell the products of other companies on a commission basis, on the internet. The affiliate marketer receives a sales commission on every sale, from the merchant.

You need to follow these simple and easy steps to start earning as an affiliate marketer.

1. First of all you need to search a market which you think is the best to start with. Health, sports, clothing, computers, etc. are examples of some hot market areas for an affiliate marketer.

2. Register with some suitable affiliate program. Choose product(s) to sell. These products are called affiliate products.

3. For every product, you will receive a specific affiliate link. Now you need to promote your affiliate link to get more and more sales. The success of affiliate marketing depends on this step.

4. Finally, after selling the product, you will receive the affiliate commissions from the merchant.

How to Choose an Affiliate Product

Before choosing any product or market, the basic thing you should always remember is that you must have a complete knowledge about the demand and worth of the product. You should choose a product which has a big demand plus it is also more profitable. There are some products which are very demanding but they do not give a healthy profit. Some products carry both the qualities and are ideal for you to start with.

Promote Your Affiliate Link

After choosing the products, you will receive your affiliate links for each product. You can use many ways to promote your affiliate link. The most popular methods are websites, newsletters, emails, blogs, classified directories etc. You can use all these methods of promotion, at the same time, for best results. There are many other tools and methods to do this. The key point is how to drive the traffic that is really interested in what you are offering. If interested and serious, people will visit your website etc, thus being greater chances of sales.

When a visitor clicks on your affiliate link, visits the merchant’s website and makes a purchase, you will receive your commission. So the number of sales directly depends on how many people see your affiliate link and visit the merchant website.

How Payments are made to Affiliate Marketers?

There are different ways of paying the commissions. You can get the commissions through checks (to any country of the world). If you have an online account, then you can be paid through PAYPAL as well. International wire transfer procedure is also used for this purpose. Different merchants offer different ways to transfer money. Usually commissions are paid on the start of every month after verifications.

What is the Benefit of being a Merchant?

Merchants, who want to sell products, have two options. They can sell their product on their own or choose to have affiliate marketers. The affiliate marketers will do a promotion of the products and sell the products for the merchant. If merchant chooses to sell the product through the affiliate marketers, it takes less effort and cost to promote the products. Now it becomes the duty of the affiliate marketers to promote the products. Greater are the number of affiliates, greater are the sales for the merchant.

Here we will discuss the three major mistakes of affiliate marketers that usually make their business collapse. This will help you in earning a steady income. If you will avoid these mistakes then you can sit back and enjoy your steady and monthly “free” income.

In affiliate marketing, you get your commissions for promoting products and services of a merchant. It is the Merchant who is bound to pay you the sales commission. The duty of the affiliate marketer is to promote the products of the merchant. The merchant is the investor, who pays commissions to the affiliate marketers, when any of his products are sold.

Now take a look at the three fatal mistakes of affiliate marketers:

1. Don’t send your prospects directly to an affiliate website

Don’t send your prospect directly to the website without offering any free benefit to the visitor because there is a possibility that the consumer will not like the product and close the website without even buying a single product. Now you have lost this consumer forever because it is obvious that the next time he will choose to visit another site.

If you want your visitors to visit the website again and again, offer them some kind of free benefit like free gifts, software or e-books. You can send them a free newsletter or weekly horoscope at their email address. If you are successful in grabbing their email address, then you can send them advertisements on their email address on a regular basis too.

2. Don’t Create a Website Full of affiliate links, flashy banners and Ads

If your website is full of affiliate links, lots of flashy banners and other advertisements then your visitor may become confused and he may simply leave your website. People like to see the clear and easy to understand websites. Just put an honest product review to get the visitor’s attention. Try to put text ads instead of flashy and graphical ads. Researches have proved that text links are more successful than flashy banners. People like to see what they want and not the fancy graphics. Also the load time of simple websites is much faster in comparison to full graphics, loaded websites. People like to visit the sites that opens in seconds. So be simple and be focused.

3. Commission theft

Commission theft is one of the biggest drawbacks in this field. Although, it is not possible to eliminate it completely, you can use some tricks to minimize it. Cloaking and redirecting of affiliate links are the options for you in this situation.

Usually the affiliate links contain the affiliate id of affiliates at the end of merchant website’s URL. An example is:

http://www.website.com?aff_id=your_affiliate_id

This is not a good style. Any person can easily drop your “aff_id” part from the above link and can visit the merchant website to make sales. In this case the sales are made but you are not credited. The solution of this problem is “cloaking”. After cloaking your affiliate link will be like:

http://www.website.com/affiliate_site

Conclusion

In conclusion, an affiliate marketer should try to avoid the common fatal mistakes to become successful in this field. Always try to collect the email addresses of your website visitors by offering them some free gifts like newsletters etc. Then use their email addresses to start your advertisement campaigns. Try to design your website really simple and easy to understand for the visitors. People don’t like the fancy graphics when they are searching for something to buy. And don’t forget to cloak your affiliate links to get the maximum benefit. By avoiding these main mistakes you can start earning sooner.

Following are the top three essential tools for a successful affiliate marketing business.

Create Your Own Website

Your own website is the basic tool which is essential for successful affiliate marketing. If you want to make a good start in this field you must build an impressive, credible and professional-looking website. If you are able to create a website successfully and it is appreciated by the users, then it is the sign for a successful affiliate marketing career for you. You must create a site which will fulfill the requirements of almost all visitors and all of your prospects may be inspired by it. A user friendly site will promote the user to visit the links to the products and services that are advertised on the site. This will give you sales.

An important point to note is that the majority of the visitors do not come online to buy something. The reason of using the internet is to find some information or they may be looking for entertainment purposes. So all you need to do is just fill your website with this kind of stuff to gain the traffic. It is fact that when people visit your website they will click on the links of your affiliate products. So it will help to increase your sales. You should provide your own original content on your website. You can put some interesting articles there. If you provide good stuff, it will be liked by your visitors. If you add interesting content, then your website can become very popular and your search engine rating will also be improved.

Give Incentives to Your Visitors

Competition today is very tough among affiliates on the internet. If you want to get the major share of your target market, then you should always keep an eye on your competitor. You should use every possible technique to make your users visit your site regularly. You should also stride to make it easier for your visitors to click the links and take a look at the products and services that you are offering. Creating an opt-in email list is a good method to get prospects. You should provide newsletter to your users, and offer them attractive incentives. This is the ideal way to convince them to subscribe to the newsletters. Offering free software or e-books to attract the users to your website is always a good idea.

Link Popularity

If you want to run a successful website then you must remember the fact that your success is hidden in driving more traffic to your website. It is necessary in order to achieve a good income. To achieve this goal, your website must be rated high in search engines. Link Popularity is an important factor which is used to determine search engine rankings. To get the high rankings, you must try to enhance your link popularity. Link popularity simply means how popular your website link is. For example tinyurl.com is a very popular website link. Try to choose a website name that is short, interesting, easy to remember name that is related to your business. This will help to increase your link popularity.

Conclusion

Above are the three basic tools for you to increase your sales in the field of affiliate marketing. There are still many other methods and tricks that can be used to maximize your earnings as an affiliate marketer but these are the basic tools. Make your own website. Your website must be easy to use and informative. It should deliver what people are looking for. Try to attract people by offering them free incentives. Try different methods to increase your link popularity to achieve a high ranking in the search engines. Use a simple, easy and interesting name for your website. Long and difficult names are hard to remember, so try to avoid them.

There are some tips to increase your affiliate commissions:

1. Build a good website

Good website means, a website that attracts the visitors’ attention. It must not be rich in graphics. It should be simple and easy to navigate. It should be simple for the visitor to find anything that he wants.

2. Do Search Engine Optimization

Search engine optimization is very necessary to drive steady traffic to your site. This is a very big topic. There are various techniques to increase the page rank of your website. Banner exchange is a famous technique. Search engine friendly URLs is another search engine optimization technique.

3. Pick the Right Merchant

Pick the right merchant to start with. Don’t look at the profits offered. Look at the expertise and experience of the merchants. See their history. How many products they have launched in the markets and how many were successful. Are they good in marketing? Are they providing good service to their customers?

Find the answers of all above questions and you will find the right merchant that will give you good and constant business.

4. Increase Traffic to Your Website

Getting a lot of traffic to your site is basically the key factor in this field. You must remember that not every visitor is your buyer. Only a few of them will buy your product, so it is important to get more and more traffic to your website. Some important techniques are email campaigns, banner exchange, RSS feeds, selection of the right keywords, writing search engine friendly content on your website etc.

5. Pre Sales

An important point is to read the minds of your visitors to understand what they need and then offer them the right thing at the right cost. Try to attract your visitors with the extra things that they would like. For example, if you are selling laptops on your website, then you can put some useful articles on how to troubleshoot laptops. This will attract your visitors. It is possible that your visitor might not make a sale in the first visit. But if he likes your articles he will come back to study your articles and it is possible that he may make a purchase after some visits. This concept of offering some useful free gifts to your visitors is called pre sales. It is very helpful in increasing your sales.

You cannot get the desired results in a few days, but it requires some time. Concentrate on how to improve your business by making a good website and driving more and more traffic to your website. Choose the right merchant and attract the people by offering useful products and gift packages. One satisfied customer will bring 10 more customers.

With the economy being in a state of turmoil and with so many people losing their jobs, people are looking for other means to make money. There are so many opportunities that we receive to take a look at on a daily basis, it can sometimes be overwhelming. One thing that I would recommend that you look at is your “passion”. What is it that you enjoy doing, and would do even if you did not get paid for it? Many people just jump into opportunity to make fast money. They want or need the money right now, today! That is not the best way to go, especially if you truly want to make money.

Over the years, I have made some mistakes about joining opportunities that were not really for me. I just wanted to make money. My thinking has changed a great deal because now I know that it’s not all about the opportunity, but about my passion. You too can find your passion by writing down what it is you enjoy and then looking for opportunities that fit your criteria.

I have found that I cannot sit around waiting for someone to “save” me. The government in the USA is in debt billions of dollars. Even though President Obama is giving breaks to a select few, it does not take one out of their current debt situation. If you want to survive and make it in this economy, you must take it upon yourself and make it happen. Not trying to dampen your day, but give you insight on our current state and how you can help yourself.

I just recently noticed that gas prices are starting to increase. Of course, it always happens when summer hits. No one really has a good reason for this increase. Last year, we were told that gas prices increased due to the drilling of more well holes. So, I guess this only occurs during the summer months(lol).

If you are serious about making some money, start with getting a grasp on steps needed for this to happen. I wanted to learn more about making money on-line, so I picked up an E-Book that keeps me on track daily. It’s called “The Black Folks Guide To Making Big Money On The Internet”. No, you do not have to be black to get the benefits of what this E-Book offers. The title was created based on the mission of the Black Business Builders Club. Which is to uplift and support black businesses.

This E-Book is packed with information on how to make money on the Internet. I have my own personal copy of this E-Book and must say it’s awesome. It’s packed with 300 pages of content on how to start, market and grow your existing businesses. I mainly use it as a daily reference to keep me on track with my marketing efforts for my businesses. This E-Book is for you if your making money or not on the internet. Start, grow or market your business today!
