Affiliate Marketing Revised
Posted under Affiliate Marketing, Internet Marketing by PresellPro Everything you think you know about building an affiliate business is wrong. Everything you’ve been taught is simply out of date. You need to adapt and change or perish.
You’ve been duped
You’ve been told it’s easy to get started as an affiliate. Well, that’s true . . . to a point There’s no doubt it’s easier than starting your own business. But starting your own business is really hard, so it’s all relative.
The bad news…
To top it off you’ve been given false information. The first thing you’re taught is to pick some great products. Next to look for easy keywords to target. Then to use these keywords to buy ads promoting the product. And sit back and collect the profits. But, it’s all wrong.
Don’t bother with keywords
Keyword advertising used to work. But the competition has shot the price of keywords through the roof. So, throw it all away.
A better way
All is not lost. Here’s how to win at this game.
- Get into CPA marketing
- Do demographics research
- Do image ad marketing
Do CPA marketing instead of product promotion
CPA means Cost Per Action. It’s much better than promoting a product. Because your visitor doesn’t have to buy anything. Your commission is generated when they complete an “action”. Such as filling in a form. Which is much easier than getting them to buy something.
Utilize demographics data
Don’t waste time researching keywords (see below). So spend your time doing demographics research. First, select the CPA offer you want to promote. Next, you go to Quantcast.com. And find your target demographic.
Market on display networks
So far, you’ve got your CPA offer and your target demographics. You can target these exact demographics on display networks. Using image ads. And you don’t need to know or buy a single keyword. Plus you’re going to save a ton of money. Keyword ads are expensive, but image ads are still cheap.
Summing it up
This is a great way to make money fast. Because you can start CPA marketing for free. It’s much cheaper to do image ads than keyword ads. Display networks let you do demographics targeting. And your commission is much easier to earn.
