Make Money Online With These Quick Affiliate Marketing Tips!

By Annie Copenhaver


Affiliate programs make use of the huge online market to create some extra cash, which is always welcome in these hard times. However, if you're just starting a site or your site isn't making much profit, you might not know what to do. This site contains useful tips and tricks to noticeably improve profits.

Focus on benefits in your sales copy. Don't just list the features of your product; tell people what they will actually get from your product. Will they get peace of mind? Will they make money? Don't merely sell the features, sell the real benefits of what your product can do for them.

Avoid using services that hide domain ownership. It is believed that Google checks whether website owners have hidden their domain ownership information with services like Domains by Proxy and penalizes their sites by either reducing their rankings or increasing the time that the sites sit in the "sandbox," the informal name given to the ranking penalty given to new sites until they prove themselves.

Some affiliate companies will want you to sign an exclusivity clause, but you should avoid doing this. Pay attention to the fine print in any affiliate agreement. If you ever want to branch out and use your site to promote other products, make sure the company you're choosing now will not try to prohibit your growth in the future.

To be successful with affiliate marketing you should make a free e-zine. An e-zine is an electronic magazine with features similar to a blog and an online newspaper. Use this e-zine to advertise all the different affiliate programs you have joined. Send your e-zine to different e-zine directories, and promote your e-zine on your own site.

Use the pre-sell content of your affiliate programs to link to keep customers interested. If you a promoting a new dog cage, have the link go to the affiliates additional information about it instead of going straight to order page. This gives the customer more information about a product continuing the sales pitch and builds trust.

If you want to make the most money from your affiliate marketing programs you have to be seen as trustworthy. If you are attracting a regular base of readers for the information that you are putting out you do not want to drive them away with ads for poor quality products or gimmicks.

Only advertise products on your affiliate site you personally believe in. If you wouldn't buy it, don't advertise it. When your visitors find out that not even you believe in the products and services you promote, they will leave your site and will never come back or recommend it to other possible customers.

Becoming a successful marketer isn't something that happens overnight, and it's certainly not something that happens without a lot of effort. These tips are enough to give you a basic idea of how the genre works, but you still need more. Use these tips to build up your foundation in affiliate marketing, but never be afraid to branch out.
