Every affiliate marketer is
always looking for the successful market that gives the biggest paycheck.
Sometimes they think it is a magic formula that is readily available for them.
Actually, it is more complicated than that. It is just good marketing practices
that have been proven over years of hard work and dedication.
There are tactics that have worked
before with
online marketing and is continuing to work in the online affiliate
marketing world of today. With these top three marketing tips, you will be able
to able to increase your sales and survive in the affiliate marketing online.
What
are these three tactics?
1. Using unique web pages to promote
each separate product you are marketing. Do not lump all of it together just to
save some money on web hosting. It is best to have a site focusing on each and
every product and nothing more.
Always include product reviews on the
website so visitors will have an initial understanding on what the product can
do to those who buys them. Also include testimonials from users who have
already tried the product. Be sure that these customers are more than willing
to allow you to use their names and photos on the site of the specific product
you are marketing.
You can also write articles
highlighting the uses of the product and include them on the website as an
additional page. Make the pages attractive compelling and include calls to act
on the information. Each headline should attract the readers to try and read
more, even contact you. Highlight your special points. This will help your
readers to learn what the page is about and will want to find out more.
2. Offer free reports to your readers.
If possible position them at the very top side of your page so it they simply
cannot be missed. Try to create autoresponder messages that will be mailed to
those who input their personal information into your sign up box. According to
research, a sale is closed usually on the seventh contact with a prospect.
Only two things can possibly happen
with the web page alone: closed sale or the prospect leaving the page and never
return again. By placing useful information into their inboxes at certain
specified period, you will remind them of the product they thought they want
later and will find out that the sale is closed. Be sure that the content is
directed toward specific reasons to buy the product. Do not make it sound like
a sales pitch.
Focus on important points like how
your product can make life and things easier and more enjoyable. Include
compelling subject lines in the email. As much as possible, avoid using the
word “free” because there are still older spam filters that dumps those kind of
contents into the junk before even anyone reading them first. Convince those
who signed up for your free reports that they will be missing something big if
they do not avail of your products and services.
3. Get the kind of traffic that is
targeted to your product. Just think, if the person who visited your website
has no interest whatsoever in what you are offering, they will be among those
who move on and never come back. Write articles for publication in e-zines and
e-reports. This way you can locate publications that is focusing on your target
customers and what you have put up might just grab their interest.
Try to write a minimum of 2 articles
per week, with at least 300-600 words in length. By continuously writing and
maintaining these articles you can generate as many as 100 targeted readers to
your site in a day.
Always remember that only 1 out of 100
people are likely to buy your product or get your services. If you can generate
as much as 1,000 targeted hits for your website in a day, that means you can
made 10 sales based on the average statistic.
The tactics given above do not
really sound very difficult to do, if you think about it. It just requires a
little time and an action plan on your part.
Try to use these tips for several
affiliate marketing programs. You can end maintaining a good source of income
and surviving in this business that not all marketers can do.
Besides, think of the huge paychecks
you will be receiving…
