BEST SERVED HOT: A Simple Recipe For Success With Affiliate Programs
Affiliate programs have become very popular because of
their potential to generate substantial, and even lavish, income in a
relatively short period with little investment cost. Their fame has
become so big that they are being credited as one of the main reasons
for the resurrection of the online business community after the dotcom
bubble burst.
But what are affiliate programs? Simply put, affiliate programs, or
associate programs as they are called in some circles, are web merchants
who pay other websites a commission for either of two things or both:
When the affiliate website generate traffic for the web merchant;
B. When the affiliate website helps sell a product offered by the web
merchant.
Now, why is such a set-up with affiliate programs a lucrative option?
Well, first, all you really need is an online presence, i.e. a website,
and some selling skills. You don?t have to pay anything at all. Second,
there is no limit as to how many affiliate programs you could join, and
there is definitely no maximum cap for how much you could earn. Third,
when everything is set, a semi-automated process will be in place that
would allow you to potentially earn even if you?re busy with other
things.
But despite all these favorable things that can be said about affiliate
programs, not that many people have decided to take the plunge. Their
hesitation most probably stem from the customary notion that nothing
enormously profitable can be gained with little work. Also, they may be
of the belief that affiliated programs are too complicated to
understand.
They?re wrong on both counts, and you could use this to your advantage
by joining affiliate programs while the industry isn?t that saturated
yet. Hereunder is an overview on how to start a relationship with an
affiliate program, and how to make the most out of it. It is presented a
la a cookbook recipe to let you know how easy it is to master.
THE 20 MINUTE AFFILIATE PROGRAM RECIPE
INGREDIENTS:
1 or more web merchants who offer good commission schemes
1 or more sellable products
1 or more websites where you could promote your affiliates
1 web builder program (i.e. Frontpage, Dreamweaver, or even MS Word)
1 payment method plan (i.e. Paypal, Stormpay, etc.)
some writing skills
OPTIONAL SEASONINGS
1 software that could convert files to .pdf format
1 or more membership in online forums
DIRECTIONS: Find a good and reliable web merchant who offers products
you are impressed with. Remember, you cannot sell, or re-sell to be more
exact, a product you don?t believe in. You also have to consider if the
said goods are sellable. You could determine this by conducting some
research on the target market. Here?s a tip though: anything is
marketable on the web, if you have the time, the patience, and the
willingness to seek out potential customers.
Once you have chosen a web merchant, you have to study the terms of the
affiliate program he offers. Important things to consider are the modes
of payment and the commission percentage. Make sure that the web
merchant would be able to pay you through the payment method you have
availed of. The commission scheme must likewise be favorable to you.
Here?s another tip: for sales, do not settle for less than 20%
commission.
If all is to your satisfaction, sign up.
You will then be given a link that, when clicked pursuant to a sale or a
hit, would inform your web merchant?s system that you are eligible for a
commission. Do not lose this link, as it would be your bread and butter
for affiliate programs.
Now, all you have to do is to strategically place this link on your
website. Additionally, you must make a sales pitch to your visitors so
that they?ll consider clicking on the said link. This can be done by
discussing something noteworthy, say for example, a how-to guide on
recovering lost data, and in the body of your article, you could suggest
your readers to try a certain product like a backup system, whose link
is provided therein. Also, you could make a sales page, which is
basically a page dedicated to the product you?re trying to resell, and
which can be accessed from your site.
As an added option, you could also make your own e-book and distribute
it for free. The e-book itself should tackle something important, but
should contain suggestions about the use of the product you?re
reselling, with the appropriate link that would garner for you your
commission. Also, you could join online forums that are dedicated to the
market that the product would be perfect for. Include your link in your
signature. This would expose it to the people who would view the threads
you participated in.
