Affiliate Marketing Survival Tips

Every affiliate marketer is always looking for the successful market that gives the biggest paycheck A common misconception is that these markets are a guaranteed goldmine. It is really much more involved 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 are continuing to work in the affiliate marketing industry today. With these smart three marketing tips, you will definitely survive as an affiliate in online marketing and boost your sales significantly.

What are these three methods ?

1. Use individual web pages for each product or service you are promoting. Do not lump all of it together just to save some money on web hosting. It is best to have a website 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 buy 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 action on the information. Each headline should attract the readers to try and read more and even contact you. Highlight your special points. This will help your readers to learn what the page is about and will prompt them to want to find out more.

2. Providing free reports is very effective.  Try to place your free offer above the fold so your visitors will be certain to see it. 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 returning again. By placing useful information into their inboxes at certain specified periods, you will remind them of the product they thought they wanted to begin with.  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 dump that kind of content into the junk bin before even allowing anyone to read  them first. Persuade your subscribers that they will really be missing out on a great limited offer if they don’t take advantage of your products or 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. Submit topic specific articles to e-zines and e-reports for publication. By locating publications within your niche you have a good chance of catching your customer’s attention.

By consistently writing a minimum of two articles each week, you can easily attract 100 targeted visitors to your website each day.  Make sure your articles are a minimum of 300 words in length. A good rule of thumb is that about 1 out of 100 visitors will typically make a purchase. If you can generate as manyas 1,000 targeted visitors for your website in a day and that means you can make 10 sales based on the averagestatistic.

If you think about it, these methods are not difficult and should be a consistent part of your marketing plan. They just require a little time and an action plan on your part.
