My First Affiliate Commission


Comments (0)

The best moment ever since I start with my online business was . That moment I will remember forever and only people who already try this feeling will understand me.

Today, after 5 years already involved in online business, I will share that moment with you and all what I did to make this happen.

Let’s go back in the 2005. It was a year that changes my life completely. As I work on an oil rig, due to my work occupation, I had 24 hours per day internet access and I use it to make some additional money. Good think was that I had money to invest and I was not afraid of lose it even. I want so hard to make a success in this virtual world.

I will cut the story what means that I will not explain how I lose thousands of dollars on PPC marketing, cause of my low PPC knowledge, and hundreds of dollars on scam money making programs.

I start to attend forums and asking about my mistakes. Forums are great place where you can get some help and get exposed to a public what I do now, helping others giving them useful information like others help me.

Start of my successful work

First what I do is that I made a research for a niche that could be profitable for me. This was not an easy job but I pick up one hot topic that was one of the best ranking on the market those days. I realize that competition is very high but as I have sports spirit inside I enter in the game try to beat it to prove my self that I can do it. This gives me a lot more motivation for a hard work. Careful here, hard work doesn’t mean success, smart do!

When I find the product, I made a web page and grab affiliate link and insert it into it. Now, the problem was how to drive traffic to my web site. I can use PPC but I still did not understand it well so it was out of the questions because I did not want to lose more money, I come here to make money.

I get one message on the forum about get high on search engine without spending money. Well, nothing to lose except time so I start.

For the main keyword of my product I made a research for a long tail keyword that is searched around 1000 times in one month and have between 500-6000 competing web pages. I write an article close related to this long tail keyword and publish it to an article directory. When my article gets accepted I get article link and copy it to my web page for backlink and this is it. Then I search for another long tail keyword within the same parameters mentioned above and write another article. In the end I pick up 10 long tail keyword and write 10 articles close related to my keywords and this is it. Fourteen days after my web site come to fifth place on Google research for one of that long tail keyword that I pick up and my web site start to receive free traffic. Two days ago I made my first sales, . I was so happy that I really can’t describe it but everyone who already try it knows exactly how I feel that moment and those who are under way to do it will know. My commission grows every days and I come to an idea to add also Google AdSense service on my web page so I will make money selling product or clicking on AdSense ads. When I realize that I make 4-5 dollars on AdSense every day with free traffic I made a research on the ClickBank and chose another product, make web page and repeat all the steps I did with a previous one. The result was the same and I was going forward, web page after web page. Calculation was simple; if one web page can bring me at minimum 4-5 dollars a day then 10 web pages will bring me 40-50 dollars every day without spending a dime. Do you get the point?

Doing like this you can make good money income or just some extra cash without spending money. After I make my first commission my life changed because I realize that internet business is working and it working perfectly.

For those who just start with an online business I would love to give an advice, start to use same tactics as I did to understand how all this internet machinery works and after, when you get some experience start to invest in some software that will save your time and double your income.

My name is Goran and I come from Croatia and can just say that I knockout the crisis. I’m already 5 years involved in an online business and I’m an author of two great ebooks about how to make money on the Facebook. For my success I use PPC Ultimate Combat Package what simply knock down my competition!!! http://SupremeKeywords.com

Affiliate Marketing 101-2 – Where to Start?


Comments (0)

Whether you are new to affiliate marketing or an experienced veteran you’ll be asking yourself this question at least occasionally; where to start? There are several ways to start affiliate marketing, but they all fall into one of two main categories:

1. to start with the product and try to find a market for it, or

2. to start with the market research, then find a product that fits with it.

Starting with the product might sound like the easiest way to go, but is not necessarily going to be easy all the way. You might find a great product that other affiliates are aggressively promoting, but if you target the wrong market you’ll not be as successful as you want.

On the other hand, starting with the market research might seem harder, but if it is done properly the rest of the process will be almost effortless. Here is why:

By searching the market and finding out what people want, you are getting the advantage of knowing your market better than most of your competitors. Thinking like a customer is the best way to do the market research.

During the market research process you’ll gather information about your market that only you can match with a product that fits with your market. And if done properly, the thirsty market will absorb your product like a sponge absorbs water.

There are several ways to do the market research for your affiliate marketing, here are 3 of the most effective ones as practiced by myself:

1. Watch talk shows, commercials, infomercials, and the news to pick up new ideas for markets to explore. Right down the broad terms (like “back pain”) in your list of potential markets that you’ll research later

2. Check Amazon and eBay for the hottest trends. This will give you an idea of what’s selling right now so that you tailor your market research around these items. Focus on “who might want to buy this product” and do your research on that basis.

3. Check your “Spam” or “Junk” folder in your email for what spammers are trying to promote. Take ideas from these emails, but you don’t have to promote the same products.

Formal affiliate marketing training, unfortunately, doesn’t exist. The good news is that I have a completely free affiliate marketing training series posted on my website: http://marketing-online-101.com where I explain it the way I do it.

How to Choose a Niche for Affiliate Marketing


Niche research is important in affiliate marketing as this will help you determine which product is best to promote and which business is lucrative. Your success in this venture largely depends on how you choose a profitable niche, and how much effort you put into it.
Affiliate marketing can be an exciting venture. However, with the many products or services to offer online, getting started with this business and choosing the right products or services to promote can be very confusing. If you choose the wrong product, you may never earn a single dime.
Choosing a lucrative niche is essential as this would help you get great marketing results. Here are the things to consider and do to be able to find the right niche:
Choosing a smaller niche is more profitable in most cases as this allows you to target prospects. The advantage of choosing a small niche is that you don’t have to exert a lot of effort on it as opposed to choosing a huge niche that include a wide range of products and services. With tight niche, you will have to work less and make more money.
Make sure that the niche you choose is lucrative. This means there’s low competition in it so you could have higher marketing results. To determine whether the niche is profitable, the quality of the services and products suited for that niche should be of high quality.
One thing you should also consider is to be able to find people who are interested in the products you will choose to promote. No matter how good your product is or how best you think your niche is, it is useless if your market find your product useless as well.
Consider your interest and passion. They say that you can only be successful in your endeavor if you have passion and interest in it. The most successful entrepreneurs in affiliate marketing have the most passion and interest in their ventures. Finding a niche that interests you will definitely help you build that success.
Aside from considering your interest, also consider selecting products that you are expert or have a vast knowledge about. To succeed in affiliate marketing, you need to know how to convince people to visit your site and make a purchase. Also, do keyword research. There are many online keyword generator sites that will help you have an idea on searches are done on a specific niche. If you find that the keywords related to the niche you chose are searched by over 30,000 times per month, it is worth pursuing.
