Affiliate Marketing Secrets

Technology is moving at the speed of mind.  Business is moving at the speed of sales.  Online Businesses and Affiliate Marketing are the power of both. In internet sales do you know how to navigate the “Wacky World Wide Web Wonderful Waters”?  If you don’t hear is how to and what you will learn!

The World Wide Web or Woo Woo Woo or W cubed or whatever you want to call it is the most amazing invention, evolution, creation in our lifetime. It has become the focus of our daily life and almost everyone you and I know owns a computer, understands the internet and likely has access to email and a presence on the “web”.

That is important to note because that means you and I have access to millions of customers who have needs for one thing or another. Think of yourself for a minute and when you want information do you go to the public library or to a museum or “jump on the internet”? I suspect 99 out of 100 people would answer the latter.

I call the new platform for doing business and making money the ” Wacky World Wide Web Wonderful Waters ” because it is certainly a source for every and anything you can imagine; you can learn about the history of “Azteca’s in Florida”;  “how the atom works”; even “why a baby cries” by doing a “Google” search on the words in quotes. These words are called “keywords” which I will discuss in my next article. But with them you can find anything and everything “Wacky” on the Web. The beauty of this is how “Wonderful” this concept is to help you make money. In fact, your imagination is the limit to what people out there want. The flip side to this is what do you want to provide them? Once you decide what you want to provide or sell (and be sure you have a passion for it as I discussed in my 6 P’s of Business Success), then you are on the way to navigating the ” Wacky World Wide Web Wonderful Waters ” and using it to create a successful Affiliate Marketing on-line business and enjoying the experience.

Next time, I will discuss the 3 K’s of the “Keywords Keys Krisis!”

Did you know that an average individual would need to see a product at least seven times before deciding to buy it? In other words, you as an affiliate will have to show the person your product so many times before they can decide to purchase it. A great way to get them to see your product would be through a newsletter. The reason that newsletters work better than random emails because the individual has to sign up for the newsletter and this way you are not sending them spam. Hence, they will pay attention to what you have to say.

You can take their email addresses when they visit your website and then you can make them come back through your newsletter. You can keep repeating your product offer in the newsletter. If they seem not interested in the product that you are offering them then you can offer them some other of your products. Soon enough, they will begin to purchase and you will begin to get the commission.

Your newsletter is the only point of contact that you have after the person leaves your website. You can use it to create a relationship with your prospect. The logic is simple enough. Anybody is more likely to purchase from someone they know instead of a complete stranger. You can build your name and reputation in their eyes through your newsletter. You can do this by including informative content in your newsletter, useful articles on relevant subjects and such other stuff.

Use the correct tools when you are running a newsletter. Avoid using tools such as Microsoft Outlook. You can commit serious mistakes such as sending too many emails in one go and this can cause your web host to shut you down. Besides that, it can also be quite time consuming and tedious. Instead of that, you can use aweber or any other similar auto responder service. This way you can create forms for signing up on your website. The service adds or removes subscribers automatically and you can set up the schedule as to when you want the messages to go. You can schedule your messages that are not time sensitive.

For example, you can set up the newsletter for the first message and the second and so on. Then, you can of course send newsletters that offer specific holiday promotions or such offers. You can offer your newsletter for free when they sign up at your website. If they find interesting content on your website then they will surely like to receive your newsletter. The newsletter will help you stay in touch with your prospect and you will soon see the results.

Internet Marketing is an extremely lucrative career if pursued earnestly and in the right ways, however it is no get rich quick scheme, which is often the case put forward by so many of the “Guru’s” that have set themselves up and unfortunately give our profession a bad name.

Fortunately for us there are some extremely good, and strangely oftentimes free resources out there that we can use to help us unravel the mysteries of SEO, Blogging, Affiliate Marketing and article writing. Ezine which is where I write and you are reading this is an extremely popular site and one of the best for submitting articles to since it is SEO optimized and gives great power to the back links that you get from the bio’s attached to each article you submit, and best of all from the writers perspective it is free to join. There are many other similar sites available and you can easily perform a web search to find a publisher that suits your needs and style of writing.

The big question is where do we go to find out which sites can be helpful and which tools will be of use in setting us along the right road to Internet marketing success? I have chosen to do my Internet Marketing with the Wealthy Affiliate University, but at the same time I am also participating in Ed Dale’s 30 Day Challenge. The 30 Day Challenge is a free to enter training program which runs each year from the 1st August for 30 days, The idea of the challenge is to get you set up to the point where you have earned your first $ 10 on-line. There is also no marketing performed by Ed Dale’s team during the course of the challenge.

I have found this combination to be extremely helpful in learning all of the pitfalls and hurdles to be taken and/or avoided in managing to start up an Internet Marketing career. The 30 day challenge gives the initial training and impetus and the Wealthy Affiliate University provides the tools needed to perform most of the required tasks as well as containing a forum where you can discuss topics of difficulty or interest with the owners or any of the more experienced marketers. This is particularly useful for the beginner, but also for the experienced marketer with challenges again I should point out that there are other similar courses available. There are many other places where you might get similar facilities, but I cannot  vouch for them. When you make your selection  please ensure that you choose a reputable company that does not attempt to scam either its members nor the public with high pressure tactics and up-sells.
