Proper PPC Campaign Management

If you are looking into using pay per click (PPC) campaign to build your affiliate marketing business, you ought to know that there are some keywords are more preferable compare to others. Unfortunately, these keywords became the competitive keywords and you will want to avoid these keywords when you are starting with PPC reason being that these keywords are quite expensive in cost. You may need to pay more money so that the search engines will list out your campaign.

If that is the case, what kind of keywords should you look at?

You should look for long tail keywords when you are starting your affiliate marketing business. These keywords are more specific and cost less than the general keywords. However, when you are targeting these keywords in your campaign, be prepare that you will see less traffic coming to your website.

Now, you have to understand that the more traffic doesn't equate more sales and profits. And if these traffic don't buy from you, you lose money. However, people who search with long tail keywords are generally more interested in buying your product.

Let's take a look at the number of searches for "affiliate marketing" when this post is written. According to freekeywords.wordtracker.com, it has 415 searches and "how to affiliate marketing" only has 6 searches.

When you look at the keywords, how likely do you think that 415 searchers are interested to buy from you? Most of them might be just looking for information or just want to know more about the business. Then, imagine you are paying at least $0.10 for the keyword (in reality, the keyword cost usually cost more than $0.10). You will be paying $41.50 everyday and it is $1245 for 30 days.

Tell me please. How many of you can afford that kind of marketing budget.

However, people who search for keywords like "how to affiliate marketing" are actually more open to getting your product because they know what they want. And when you play your cards right on your website, you can definitely get your visitors to buy your product.

And when that happens, money will start to come in.

The 2 Common Mistakes To Fail An Affiliate Marketing Business

If you are planning to make money with affiliate marketing, you probably will want to look at the 2 tips I prepared for you below.

1. Focus on the general market

As you already know, affiliate marketing is a highly competitive business. You need to focus your marketing strategy in the right market especially when you are building this business with a tight budget.

Many affiliate marketing beginners made the mistake of going into the general and competitive market without getting their experience in the niche market. They thought that since they are going to venture into the general market eventually, they might as well start there.

Now, you need to understand that the niche marketing helps you to gain experience and accumulate the money you need to market in the general market. Besides, the money you are making from the niche market will continue to come in when you are in the general market. It doesn't hurt to have another income source, right?

2. Marketing inconsistently

For some reasons, many affiliate marketing beginners slowed their marketing after a while. It seems that they have lost the burning desire that push them to start the business.

Some said that this is because that the affiliate marketing newbie fail to see money coming in during their marketing campaigns and they become impatience with the business. If that is the case, I have to let you know that it is common that in affiliate marketing, only 1-3% of your customers will be interested with your product.

However, that doesn't mean that your prospects will not need your product later. That is why you have to maintain visible in the market and let your customers know that you are always there when they need you.

And one of the best ways that you can do that is to create your own opt list. Share something valuable with your prospects so that they will sign up for your list and remain contactable even they have turn down your first offer.

3 Search Engine Optimization Tips For You

I believe a lot of you now already built your own website. Still, there are a lot of things more that you have to do in order to get your website ranked in the search engines. So, today I am sharing some of the search engine optimization tips I learnt with you and hopefully they can help to boost the traffic to your website.

1. Know your visitors

This will need you to find out how your visitors are looking for your affiliate product over the search engines. You can start with the keyword research tools I shared with you in the last post, key in the general search term for your affiliate product.

Let's say you are an affiliate for digital camera. Put that in and clicks submit. Then, you will see the keywords your target market is using to look for your product.

Although that there are more searches for the top keywords, I will advice you NOT to target them for your SEO campaign. This is because these are competitive keywords and a lot of internet marketers are using them for their websites. It might take you a long time before you can enjoy endless traffic if you go against the big guys in your niche. Your job for now is to take experience with SEO so that you know you are doing the right thing with SEO.

So, target those keywords that have lower searches and put them in your meta-tag.

2. Designs

When you are in SEO, it is not just the keyword that is important to drive traffic to your website. The design of your website has to suit your niche. Imagine you are an affiliate for traveling agency and your website is dark and gloomy. It just feels odd.

And one very important tip about website design is that please, please, please be GENEROUS with it. If you can't afford professional help to design your website and you want to do it yourself, please do it dilligently. I have seen websites that are so badly designed that I wonder how successful are the owners with their websites.

Always treat your website as your baby in affiliate marketing. It deserves the best from you.

You want your visitors to buy your product or at least give their details with you. The last thing you want them to do is to think your website is cheap and leave your site with distaste.

3. Website content

Just to let you know, search engines spiders love to crawl on frequently updated website. And if you like to keep your website fresh, this can greatly help you to make money with affiliate marketing especially when you are in a highly competitive niche.

Besides, human readers like to read new content from your website. Just take a look at the websites that are enjoying high traffic. Don't the owners update their website regularly?

If you seriously want to enjoy the traffic streaming from search engines, you ought to start practicing as those website owners.

Improve Your Affiliate Marketing Business With Proper Keyword Research

I have shared tips about how you can build your affiliate marketing business with article marketing. I think I left out a huge part of article marketing in my last post, keyword research for your articles. When your articles turn up on the search engine result page (SERP) after your prospects searched with the keywords, you will draw more readers to your site and get more exposure to your affiliate link. And when more people visit your link, you will be able to make more money with affiliate marketing.

I got attention right? So, let's see how we can do that.

1. Be in your customers' shoe

Do you know what your customers are thinking when they are looking for your affiliate product?

It is common that your prospects will put in general search terms when they are searching online. However, they might be looking for information about the topic instead of buying the product. What I recommend here is that you can put in "how to" or "tips" in your article.

So, instead of "make money with affiliate marketing", you can use the key phrases like "how to make money with affiliate marketing" or "make money with affiliate marketing tips".

When you use those key phrases, you further narrow down the people who will look at your affiliate product. And usually, these people are more interested to get your product to solve their issues.

2. Tool

Sometime, being in your customers' shoe is not enough to give you quality keywords and that is where keyword research tools come in. My personal favorite keyword research tools are,

• Free keyword research tool
• SEO book keyword suggestion tool
• Google keyword research tool

I personally use these 3 tools when I am researching for keywords to focus my article on.

Just put in the general search term and look at the list the research tools have for you. If you just started with article marketing and keyword research, you will want to start focusing on keywords or key phrases with low search result. Blend these words and phrases into your title and content so that your articles can be shown in the search engine when someone searches for it.

Although you might not enjoy much traffic from low search keywords, these readers are more ready to get your product. And that is what you need to start feeling that you can make money with affiliate marketing.

By the way, some vendors will provide you a list of the common keywords that your customers will use to look for your affiliate product. You can put those keywords in the tools above and see what other keywords that turn up.

As you can see keywords are very important for your affiliate marketing success. You don't want to waste time and effort writing articles that aren't targeted. Since now you have the knowledge to basic keyword research, use that wisely.

Learn How To Make Money Online With Affiliate Marketing Course

Do you want to start making money with affiliate marketing? If you do, you probably want to start joining an affiliate marketing course.

But before you join any course, ask whether it has any supporting forum. It is common to be confused when you just started the course and that is why you need someone inside to explain to you about the course materials. Imagine you are talking to someone in a forum but is not the course participant. As much as the person would like to help, it is difficult for him to give you proper advice because he didn't experience the course.

Besides, a lot of affiliate marketing courses nowadays come with support forum. It is your right to deserve a forum.

And when you are in a course, you will be given the direction to how to build a successful affiliate marketing business. Being the newbie in the business, the least thing you want is to figure affiliate marketing out on your own in the dark. You want to make money with affiliate marketing as soon as possible.

You should have received training materials about building basic landing page, driving quality traffic, tracking your campaigns, building strong call to action and etc.

Being in the affiliate marketing business for a few years, I can be sure that you will run into troubles when you started your affiliate marketing business. So, it is also important that you join the affiliate marketing course that offers after course support or again, the forum.

One of the reasons is you want to know how your fellow course mates are doing after they joined the course and started their own business. You want to know how successful they are with the business and which method they are using to make money with affiliate marketing.

Usually, the affiliate marketing course owner will display the success stories of the participants. You can then practice what they are doing to start your own successful affiliate marketing business. This can save a lot of your time and effort when you are wondering in this business.

However, even the best affiliate marketing course in the whole universe can't guarantee your successes if you don't apply what you have learnt. I know you are wondering what if you fail this business. I can tell you that what you are experiencing now is perfectly normal even a lot of successful affiliate marketers been through that before.

Still, I urge you to reckon the potential you are missing when you cling onto what you have learnt. Equipping yourself with the theories of affiliate marketing will not change your financial future. You can only achieve your financial goal when you take action.

Make The Right Attraction

When I woke up this morning, I experienced something and I decided to share it here. It is not affiliate marketing tip or at least it is not directly related. Still, it might inspire you and put your mind on the right track.

I sometime set my cell phone and alarm to wake me up if I have something urgent to do the other morning. And when my phone rang, I got up and stop it but I was lazy to go to the other end to stop my alarm, even though it hasn't rang yet.

And while staying in my bed, I started to imagine I took the alarm and put it off. At that moment, I felt the weight of the alarm and I felt my finger pushing the off button and I heard a click that the alarm is off and I put it back on the desk. After imagining and feeling the scenario, I went back to sleep.

Amazingly, I woke up an hour later feeling fresh and charged. And then only I realized I actually forgot to turn on the alarm yesterday. You can call it a coincidence, but I see that as a wish come true. And then it bump me in the head that,

"Hey, this is the same process to attracting money into your life. I can use the same process to attract more money to my affiliate marketing business."

And if you have been practicing the law of attraction, some of you might feel that it is easier to attract something small and it is difficult to get the green stuff to your life. Now, that is a limiting belief you have there. There is no telling attracting more sleep is easier than more money to your bank account. It is all in your mind.

And if you really want to attract the right stuff into your life, you got to deal with the limiting believe first.

Then, let's start by assuming your positive posture. Close your eye (so that you are more into the emotion), chin up, force a smile and stand or sit up straight. Notice how you feel and what is the little voice in you say.

The more pessimistic you program yourself to be, the faster and louder the feeling will come. Then, you will know what you truly feel about being happy or your business. And only then you will hear what you have been telling yourself and how destructive your own words can be.

Once you have dealt with that, it is time to change your pattern. Don't just say positive affirmation, you need to feel it. And give attention to the negative feeling and voice that come up, they are trying to tell you something. As negative and destructive they are, I personally believe that they are trying to lead you to the right path.

This might look stupid when you started the process and you might feel that you are getting no where except wasting your time. You might even feel you are putting more negative stuffs by giving attention to the negative emotion. Please trust me when I say that is just part of the process. Just like when you are learning affiliate marketing, it is a normal to go through a trial and error process to find out what work best for you.

Again, I can't tell you how long it will take. It is all in your mind. Still, I can tell you this,

=> "The more you practice, the faster you can notice your issues and the sooner your deal with them, the faster money will come to you. "

5 Ways To Increase Your Affiliate Marketing Income

Since you are reading this, you might be struggling with affiliate marketing and you are doing you all can to increase your income with the business. Are you using the right marketing strategies? If you are unsure, below are some tips to add in your arsenal so that you can start making money with affiliate marketing.

1. Unique marketing strategy

Everyone is looking for a unique marketing strategy so that they can start making money online. But looking at the competition at this era, almost every affiliate marketer are eyeing on the next unique marketing strategy. And as soon as it is being launched, almost every affiliate marketer will be practicing the method like no body business.

As I personally see it, a unique marketing strategy is which you have master the method and perfecting it as you go along with your business. Just like writing a blog post, you probably started with a 100 words post and you probably can't understand what you are writing.

But as you continue to write, you become better and you know how to place your words so that your readers are aroused and get them to take your offer. So, the next time you market for your business, think about what you are doing and is there any way you can do it better.

2. Rewards

Just look at me, I hate to buy products at full price. So, I always buy a handful when I am buying something at full price. However, I am willing to spend more whenever I can get a discount on the product.

Unfortunately, a lot of people are like me.

So, when you are running your affiliate marketing business, be generous. People like to receive. Be it a discount or bonuses. The more you give the higher the chances your prospects will buy from you.

And when you are doing that, remember to tell your prospects that your offer is unique and is not available else where. They will be even more delighted to buy from you when they can enjoy exclusive bonuses.

3. Referrals

Another tip to help you get more income to your business, you can ask your current customers to refer your product to their friends and families. And when their referrals buy from you, you will reward them back.

This works similar to a 2 tiers affiliate program where the vendors will pay you a certain percentage of commission based on your downline commission. And if you are not in a 2 tiers affiliate marketing program, you will probably need to find another way to reward your customers back.

4. Value added service

If you really want your customers to refer your product to their acquaintances, it is good that you can provide a value added service. I know you might be wondering what is value added service. This is actually something that you do to remind your customers about your value. Something that will make your customers appreciate you.

Coming from a sales background make me understand that you need to have something special so that your customers will remember you. And when your customers are bonded with you, this will greatly reduce your time and effort to close the any future deal with your customers.

And just to clarify with you, value added service doesn't always need to be something big and heavy. Sometime all you need is just an email asking your customers how they feel after using your affiliated product. If they have overlooked something in the product and affected their satisfaction, you might want to remind them what the product can do and how they should utilize the product to fully experience the benefits with it.

5. Reinvest

When you are making money with affiliate marketing (it doesn't need to be a lot), you will want to look at the possibility of reinvesting part of your profit to grow your affiliate marketing business further.

You can hire a ghost writer to write for your blog so that you have more time to expand your business into another niche. Maybe you want to hire professional service to build a brand new website for another niche. Or maybe you want to pay for an online course to learn about the new niche. Or it is just as simple as expanding your autoresponder service so that you can build a bigger list for your current affiliate marketing niche.

I hope you enjoyed the affiliate marketing tips just now. I personally believe that when you really follow through with the 5 tips you have read, you will increase your affiliate marketing income in no time.

Is This What You Like?

Just to let you know, a lot of successful affiliate marketers started their business with something they like, their hobbies and their passion. Don't you feel it is much easier to build your affiliate marketing business from something you like?

When you are in affiliate marketing, you are going to face with long hours of works, the unknown when you are getting the money and who can forget the little itchy voice inside you that yells out to you to quit. And looking at these future challenges, don't you think you should start your business with something you like?

Now, I understand that what you like might not bring you a lot of money and you might need to work very very hard to start making money with your prefer niche. But sometime, despite of all the challenges coming your way, it is your passion that holds you together and keep you going.

One of the reasons why a lot of affiliate marketers fail the business is because they started affiliate marketing in the wrong foot. They though that their hobby is unprofitable. They go after niches they thought are profitable yet a stranger to them. It is no wonder they take a long time to learn about the niche and convince themselves to like what they do.

And that is when the small annoying voice appears to disturb you. Your subconscious will find its way to distort you from your original path and somehow make you to fail making money with the business and cause you to give up this wonderful business (I do see the beauty of affiliate marketing).

So, you see, it is important that you need to start your affiliate marketing business with something you like.

Besides, you don't just like one thing in your life right? You must have interest in other things as well. And when you can't make money with your first love, you can try to make it works with your second or third interest. There are plenty of doors you can open with affiliate marketing.

By the way, when you are build your business around something you like, you will feel that money come to you more naturally. It seems that you are driving money to you effortlessly. And if you have spoken with other affiliate marketers who force themselves into their niches, you will see that you are enjoying more success then they do. They might wonder why they fail to bring in money even they spend more money and work longer hours than you.

Truth be told, making money with affiliate marketing shouldn't be that hard. You just start with the niches that you like.

After all, one of the reasons that you join affiliate marketing is to earn easy money. Right? :-)

Affiliate Marketing Briefly Explained

If you are looking for ways to make money online, affiliate marketing is the way to go. Although there are more and more people joining the business, there are quite a lot of people who leave the business because they can't see money coming their way. If you seriously want to be financially free and be your own boss, you will want to face the challenges head on. But that is another post. For now, let's look at what is affiliate marketing first.

Just to let you know, affiliate marketing is an online business where you make money by referring sales to the merchants. Many people have achieved their financial dream with this business and hopefully, you will be the next one. :-)

And to start making your first affiliate marketing income, you need to start making your online presence. Be it a website or a blog, you got to start building one and put quality information on your platform.

If you want to build a website to promote your affiliate marketing business, you might want to take a look at http://www.2createawebsite.com/ where they provide free web design information for beginners. I personally found they provide thorough information about the process and their reading material is easy to read.

And if you are looking for a more affordable platform to build your affiliate marketing business, you probably might want to look at blogging. You can get started with blogger.com/ and wordpress.com/. Both of them are popular choices when someone wanted to start blogging.

Next important tip to a successful affiliate marketing business is traffic. A lot of affiliate marketing newbie suffer when they try to drive traffic to their website or blog. But why should you? Building traffic can be fun and automated. What I mean about fun is that you make new friends during the process. Take this blog for example. I met a lot of people who don't just passionate about affiliate marketing. We some how connected at other levels. There are gamers, sport enthusiasts and even inspirational writers. Talk about law of attraction. :-)

And if you think you are having trouble building traffic, this where automation comes in. You just outsource the work, kick back and enjoy the result. However, this is going to cost you. So, make sure you have extra money to spare before you opt for this method.

After you drive traffic to your website or blog, you need to know how you can convert them to customers. So, even you have 10,000 visitors to your platform a day, you are still not making money with affiliate marketing if none of them buy your affiliate product.

Now, visitors go to your website because they think you or your affiliate product can help them in some ways. If they don't feel that you are capable of that, they will just leave. So, when you are displaying information on your site, you need to make it brief and direct. Don't make your visitors guess and never ever confuse them. It is ok that you have one or two banners on your site. Maximum three if you can place the banners strategically.

There are affiliate marketing newbie who hope to capture the maximum earning with a single site and flood the site with banners, pop-in and pop out box. Please don't do that. I know you desperately want to make money with affiliate marketing. Still, you are only turning your visitors away when they got confuse.

Create your success,

How To Build Your List Quickly?

When you are in affiliate marketing, it is important that you can build your list and below are some tips to help you on that quickly.

1. Freebies

This is what most of the affiliate marketers are offering and by far the best way to help build your list quickly. Let me ask you, who don't want a free guide to deal with their issues. And instead of one, how about I be more generous and give you 3? Take a look here.

When you are offering freebies, you have to make your customers see the quality and value in the freebies. The least thing you want them to see is that your freebies are expandable. They might be free but they certainly aren't cheap.

2. Viral marketing

When you are giving free guide as freebies, try to incorporate your landing page link in the guide. Don't flood the pages though, content still comes first. And when you are in viral marketing, you will encourage your readers to give the book out freely.

You can even put your free guide on ebook directories so that more people can download the book. You can also participate in giveaways with your ebook and as more people get your ebook, you will be able to grow your list quickly.

3. Demo

This is another wonderful way to get people to sign up on your list. When you are offering demo, you give them a chance to experience your product and many people are interested to try the demo before they pay for the full version.

Let's say you are building a list to market your article submission software. Why don't you offer a demo (with limited function of course) to your visitors so that they can feel what your software can do.

This works even better when you have a website only focus on the product and you show the opt in box on the website or in a pop out box. A lot of people will sign in for the demo to see that whether the software is worth their money.

4. Membership

When you are offering a membership area to build your list, remember to make it as exclusive as possible. Tell your visitors what they will get sign up for the free membership.

For starter, you can give your members a classy title. Some affiliate marketers will call you as a gold class member even you just sign in free for the membership. They then extend the title to diamond or platinum membership for paid members. This certainly makes you feel good, doesn't it?

Think about this, how do you feel when I call you a basic and when I address you as gold member? There is certainly a different shift in emotion when your members see that and it can create a greater impact when your members see the classy title everytime they log into the list. And when they are impressed, it is easier to sell to them. :-)

Create your success,

How To Write Articles For Your Readers

If you are using article marketing to build your affiliate marketing business, the following tips will be most useful to you.

1. Short paragraph

You are straining your readers' eyes when your paragraph is too long and subconsciously, you are giving a bad impression to your readers. Some of them might even leave your articles immediately when they see your paragraphs are jumbled together. So, you just lost a precious lead.

Personally, I think it is good that you can structure your paragraph in maximum of 2-3 sentences. It is even better that you can summarize what you want to say in a single sentence.

2. Bullets and numbering

Bullets and numbering are important when you want to stress a few points in your article. This makes what you want to say stand out and easy to read.

I know that you don't have this feature when you are writing in notepad or wordpad (I am not sure about Mac, please tell me if you know) but that is not a big deal because you can always put in the HTML code or leverage on the directories software when you submit your articles.

3. Sub-headings

If you have been following my blog and articles, you will see that I like to use this in my writings. This is a good way to separate what you want to say and still keep your points in the article. Besides, it makes me feel good when I display my writing this way. :-)

Also, you made it easy for your readers to scan what you want to say and that give them a brief picture of what they are going to see in your article. You can then keep your readers attended to your article. By the way, do remember to bold or highlight your sub-heading whenever it is possible so that your readers will know that they are heading into something new.

4. Title

When you are writing a title, it is very important that you can grab your readers' attention when they see the title. If you can do that, you are already half way through getting people to read your article. One of the best ways to do that is to put the keywords into your title.

But when you are putting your keywords in the title, make sure that you don't over stretch your title. It is not just that the article directories will reject your article when the title is too long, your readers will also feel something odd when the title is too long.

5. Content

Since the title only got people half way through reading your article, what is the other half to get your readers completely into your article? What else except content?

And try to make your content as light as possible (at least that is how I see it should) so that it is an easy read on your readers. However, that shouldn't block you from delivering your core message professionally. It will be marvelous when you can relate what you want to say with an example that is related to your target readers.

If you are promoting an affiliate marketing business for carpet cleaning, you should know how your readers feel when their precious carpet was stained and worry that it won't come off. When you put something your readers can understand, it is easier to get them to follow your article to the end and click on your business link.

As you can see, the common goal when writing your article is to make it easy to read. There is nothing bombastic about it and you certainly shouldn't stress yourself over it.

6 Tips To Build Your Affiliate Marketing Business...

Without a doubt, you need to do some work if you wan to start making money with affiliate marketing and here are 6 tips to help you on that,

1. Take action

A plan is wonderful when written on paper or pictured in mind. You will only see the challenges when you put your plan into action. Remember to check on the progress of your action regularly so that they give you the result as plan.

2. Be systematic

There is nothing more to say about this. If you want a successful affiliate marketing business, you need to have a system. Period.

3. Quality

As affiliate marketing is getting more and competitive, you can no longer win a sale by just referring your affiliate link to your prospects and hoping they will buy from you. Everyone is raising the bar and if you want to start making money with affiliate marketing, I think you have to follow the trend.

One of the ways you can do this is to give quality service in your marketing effort and that includes giving quality information on your website. This is to tell your readers that you have certain experience in affiliate marketing and you are serious in this business.

4. Profit

At the end of the days, you need profit to sustain your business. You need numbers to pay for the outsourcing and to grow your business further. That is why you need to give a strong reason for your prospects to do business with you. And again, this business is getting more and more competitive as days go by, you need a unique sales point to push your business further.

5. Tracking

Just to let you know, tracking is very important to your profit. Let me ask you this, how much are you spending for your affiliate marketing business? Is your profit parallel with your investment? If you can't answer that, you probably need to start tracking your result.

Think about this, you are running multiple campaigns to build your affiliate marketing business and one of them is search engine optimization (SEO) that cost $127 (this number is just an example) per month.

To some of you, it might not be a lot. Still, do you know that you are wasting $1524 annually if the service doesn't bring you result? With some common sense, don't you think you can earn much more money when you drop the service? Now, that is a simple decision but until you track your result and calculate your profit over your investment, you will never know that.

6. Staying in touch

You probably read this somewhere before and I have to stress it again, you need to keep in contact with your customers if you were to make money with affiliate marketing. And there is no better way to do that than building your own opt-in list.

Customers nowadays are face with numerous offers and they are forgetful. I believe you can't recall who is the fifth list owner you have signed up to and you probably can't be sure whether you are still receiving email from the list owner or not.

So, you see, staying in touch is not just about structuring emails to the members but to do it regularly. And with the help of autoresponder, you can follow up with your customers with automated messages which can be sent out on your designated period.

Truth be told, the tips I have shown you is not rocket science. They are simple and I believe anyone with determination to build a successful affiliate marketing business can follow them. So, the question is,

"How eager are you to make money with affiliate marketing?"

Remember, making money with affiliate marketing is easy when you know how. :-)

P.S. Making money with affiliate marketing can be devastating sometime. Still, you can always talk to me and get more tips of how you can earn your online income with ease.

Pay Per Click

This is my first post about pay per click (PPC) and it is mainly about what it is and how you can benefit with pay per click. If I make any mistake, feel free to let me know. :-)

When you are starting with your affiliate marketing business, it is very important that you advertise your business as best as you can and sometime, that can cause you a lot of money. If you have some credit to spare and you want to enjoy parallel income with your investment, you might want to take a look at pay per click advertising.

You see, PPC is usually hosted at major search engines. When your prospects make a search in the search engines, they will show your advertisement at the side of the search result page. The search engines will then charge you when someone clicks on your ad. Unlike other advertisements that charge you on a weekly or monthly basis (regardless of the result they bring), you can save a lot of money when you only pay for the visits that are interested in your product.

And how can you forget the ease of using PPC? You just create a free account with the search engines, put in the keywords, cost per click and you will start to see your ad almost immediately on the search engines.

After you have setup your PPC campaign, it is time to monitor the performance of your keywords. Now, you have to understand that not all keywords will give you equal result. Some might bring you good result with relatively low cost and some might deliver the same result but with cost that might cost you an arm or a leg.

Although you can always drop the high cost keywords, but don't you feel that it is a lost to drop something that is bringing you result? If that is the case, you will want to look for ways to reduce your PPC cost and that might means that you have to buy into some of the courses or ebooks offered on the internet.

And when you are buying these tools, remember to check the reviews before you put in your money. You don't want to lose money to the scammers before you can use PPC to make money.

Is Affiliate Marketing Right For You? Answer These Questions First…

For many people, having their own affiliate marketing business and earning an income from the comfort of home is very much looking forward to. There are a lot of successful affiliate marketers out there and more are emerging around the world. However, making money with affiliate marketing is not build for everyone. If you are thinking joining affiliate marketing, here are some questions you have answer first,

1. Are you an initiator and be able to follow through what you have started? When you are in affiliate marketing, you are responsible for the development of the business and that include hard works, sacrifice of your time, capital investment, mistakes and other boring stuffs.

2. Do you make good decision? When you are a business owner, every decision you make impact your business. Looking at the pass decisions you have made, did you benefit from them? What is more important is that can you make the right decision when you are under stress? Because it is common that you will be put under stress when you are in this business.

3. Do you have what it takes to run your own business? Now, building your own business is unlike going to a job where you get annual leave and work 8 hours a day. You are stuck with your business 24/7. You only get to enjoy the free and easy lifestyle when your affiliate marketing business is drawing significant amount of income for you. As long as it didn't bring in the money, you will have to work for it (unless you give it up of course).

4. Are you passionate with what you do? Now, being in business is not just about the money. Think about this, there must be certain lack of passion with your job that pushes you to look for opportunity in affiliate marketing. If that is the case, look at how you treat your current job. You will face the same problem if you are just eyeing on the green stuff and lack the passion in all the necessary works that are require to build your business.

5. Do you hungry for success? This goes hand in hand with your passion and if you aren't hungry about success, it will shake the foundation of your determination to building a successful affiliate marketing business. You will procrastinate, look for excuses and try your best to NOT work for your business.

6. Are you willing to learn? Please don't tell me you are over your learning years and you don't want to be a school boy anymore. Do you know that there are a lot of retirees who start to learn to use PC, website building and internet when they started their online venture? Besides, when you are building your business, there is no stopping in the learning curve. The day you stop learning is the day you stop you business (if that is what you want).

7. Do you plan? Let me tell you this. If you want to be successful in affiliate marketing or anything else in life, you got to start planning what you do. Give you step by step blue print. If you want to skip this and run your business spontaneously, you probably will see a lot of problems coming your way.

8. Can you juggle between your business and your personal life? You probably join affiliate marketing because you want to build a better financial future for your family. I understand you want that desperately and you are ready for the coming challenges. But can you back down for a while and look at your family? Starting your affiliate marketing business doesn't give you the reason to ignore your family. They too need your time and attention.

And how can you forget about your own well being? Putting yourself in constant business stress is going to burn you out. You are like an overstretch rubber. You are going to snap one day and no one will know what will happen then.

Besides, it is not the quantity of your work that determines how much you make with affiliate marketing, it is the quality.

So, did you give positive answers to most of the questions? If you did, then you are ready for your own business. If you can't, you probably need to be more prepare you start your own affiliate marketing business.

3 Tips To Attracting Visitors To Your Site

When you are in affiliate marketing, it is crucial that you can bring visitors to your site. However, many affiliate marketers are struggling to get visitors to their affiliate marketing platforms. If you are one of them, below are 3 tips which you will want to take a look at,

1. Search engine optimization

Did you notice the blue title bar at the top left corner of your window whenever you visit a site? That is the title tag where search engines' spiders will crawl to rank your site (In order for your website or blog to rank high in the search engines, the spiders will crawl more than the title tag. But for now, let's deal with that first). So, when you are deciding on a title, remember to put in the keywords that resonate with your business.

Now, you can easily change the title if you own the site. But how about those who are using free blogging platform? Once you have agreed on the title, you are basically stuck with it. Although you can create a new blog but how many blogs are you going to create to build your affiliate marketing business? So, think it through before you settle on the title.

2. List members

Who are better prospects if not your list members? One of the reasons you build your list is to update them about the products that you think can solve their problem. So, remember to end your every email with your website to remind your list members about your business.

And if you are running any promotion or discount, remember to send the exciting news to your members. The discount might be the incentive your members need to buy from you. By the way, don't just send your emails when you have something exciting to share, you can email your members once in a while and tell them about your business. Most of the members won't mind the advertisement as long as you do it diligently.

So, if you are still thinking about building your list and getting your own autoresponder service, I urge you not to. Because the longer you think about getting the service, the more money you are leaving on the table for other people to take.

I strongly recommend you to get started today.

3. Social networking sites

I personally think that social networking sites have brought new changes to how you can bring visitors to your site. Not just that you can advertise your affiliate marketing business like Google Adwords (you can even have pictures to help attract visitors) on social networking sites, you can also create group and fan page to promote your business.

You can then create interesting content and slip your affiliate link in the content and publish it in the group and fan page. And looking at the high popularity of the social networking sites nowadays, you can see the visits to your site almost immediately.

Now, I know how important visitors are to your affiliate marketing business but whatever you do, please avoid from paying visitors to your site (that means buying traffic). Why?

Think about it, you want your visitors to buy your things when they visit your site. But in this case, your visitors make money by going to site. Do you think anyone of them is going to buy your stuffs? You might get one or two of them to respond but I can tell you that the money your make from them will certainly be unparallel with the money you spend on them.

Remember, making money with affiliate marketing is easy when you know how. :-)

P.S. Making money with affiliate marketing can be devastating sometime. Still, you can always talk to me and get more tips of how you can earn your online income with ease.

Why One Can Fail With Affiliate Marketing?

Making money with affiliate marketing can be quite simple and it can sometime be simpler than making money offline. However, some are facing more problems than the other affiliate marketers and we shall look into why it happens.

1. Tools

Now, building a successful affiliate marketing business is like building a house. You need to have stable and strong foundation so that your house can still stand even after a storm.

And the foundation for your business is the skills and tools require for your business. Many new affiliate marketers run into the business after they read the introduction or a free ebook about affiliate marketing. They though they can start to make money with the business by simply blasting their affiliate link over the internet. If you have been in the business for some time, you will know that don't work.

Since that is the case, I would recommend you to sit down and plan how you want to build your business. If you need a website, make sure you learn how to build it or at least outsource the work to someone else. If you want to promote your business with article marketing, make sure you know how to write your articles properly and where to submit your articles.

2. People

When you are in affiliate marketing, you have to realize that you are in some kind of people business. That means other people are going to determine how much you can earn with this business even the product is to be use on animal or cars. So, your marketing message has to be in tune with your audiences.

Besides, it is also very important that you provide good service to your customers. It is true that the vendors will take cars of the after sales but what if the customers make an enquiry with you? Are you going to tell them to look for the vendors? It is OK that you ask them to give you some time to find the answer but never ask them to talk to the vendors. If that is the case, why should they buy the product from you? They might as well go direct to the vendors. Does that make sense?

3. Dedication and determination

Almost everyone I know talk about want to be an entrepreneur and who doesn't? You can to control your business. You run it as how you like it to be without taking orders from some one else. Still, it is never an easy task when you are starting on your entrepreneurial journey.

What you see might be just the beautiful side of being a boss. What if no customers buy your products? What is no one notice your business on the internet? How long are you going to burn your saving to for the hosting and autoresponder? How are you going to response to the people who ask you to stop dreaming?

My personal opinion is that you MUST have strong dedication and determination to your affiliate marketing business. You are going to face the challenges and doubts head on. There will be time that you might not have answer to all the questions and that is alright. All I ask is that you stick to your determination.

This is a war. A war within yourself.

10 Affiliate Marketing Tips For You - Part 2

Continuing from the last post, here are the remaining 5 tips to help you build your affiliate marketing business.

6. Leverage on your partner

When you are in affiliate marketing, you will have the chance to joint venture with other affiliate marketers to build your business. When you get that chance remember to jump into it.

You need to understand that every affiliate marketer bring different skills to the business. When you join venture with them, you can leverage on their skills and probably their list members to start making money with this business.

Now, leverage is different from taking advantage. You can't be too comfortable with your partner and take advantage on their effort. Since you are in a partnership, you ought to take up the responsibility and share the effort to build your business.

Think about this, if you keep sharing your partner's sales message with your list members and there is hardly a click from your message that you pass to your partner, do you think you still want to work with the partner? I will think about that if I were you.

7. Look for the right market

Affiliate marketers from all around the world are making money by looking at the right market where the people are in need of a solution to their problems. If you look around, people are searching for answers online.

So, you don't need to force yourself into the niche you are unfamiliar with. One of the beauties of affiliate marketing is that it covers almost all the topics in our life. You just need to do take a look on the search engines and you will see opportunities being as affiliate in your niche.

And when you play your cards right, your customers will recommend your product to other people who share the same problem. When that happens, you will start to receive money from sources that you never promote your product to.

Talk about easy money. :-)

8. Manage your time

Just to let you know, it can be very time consuming when you are starting your affiliate marketing business. So, if you have the credit to spare, try to outsource your work to other people. You can then have more time to track your result and decide how to maximize your marketing effort and investment.

And remember to look ways to automate your business as much as possible. And to start with that, you should begin to look at the possibility of building your business with autoresponder service. Surely you don't want to spend every hour in front of your computer sending emails and ignore your family.

You need to start working smart for your business.

9. Make your own material

If you really want to start making money with affiliate marketing, you need to start building your own marketing material. Although the vendors always supply you with marketing materials, other affiliate marketers are using the same material too. And when your offer is being put together with other affiliate marketers who use the same material as you, why the prospects have to buy from you instead of your competitor?

Making your own marketing material will help you to stand out from the crowd and help to build your credential and it can be easy. You can always start improvising on the vendors' marketing material. If you think the vendors' email series don't convert for your customer base, you can alter the messages and make them sound more attracting to your customers.

10. Build your mind

Before I continue with the last tip, I just want to take this chance and congratulate you for having the gut to take the first step to build your own business. Many people don't dare to take the risk.

But speaking of building your own affiliate marketing business, it is not as easy as you think. For starter, you will hear a lot of disapproval and discouragement especially from the people who you deem dear to you. But why should they? Aren't they supposed to be glad that you have found something that is profitable and worth your effort?

The first thing you need to know is that those people care for you. They don't want you to get over your head and get hurt. They just don't see the potential of the business like us. So, you have to explain to them properly and show them the benefits of affiliate marketing. Let them know that you are not going to quit your job before you make money and ask them for some time to prove to them that affiliate marketing is profitable. But even you have deal with those voices and they grant you some time, there are still more to come.

How about the argument you have to go through with yourself? How are you going to show to people that you have made the right choice by going into affiliate marketing without any significant result? If you just started with affiliate marketing, you can only imagine the stress and frustration coming your way.

That is when you have to be strong. You have to be firm with your decision and lastly you have to believe in yourself.

Since you have finish all the tips, I hope you will start practicing them. These tips won't do you any good if you keep them in your mind and let them rot.

10 Affiliate Marketing Tips For You - Part 1

I understand that affiliate marketing is a challenging business and you need all the help you can get to start making money with it. When you really start to promote your business, you will start to see all the necessary work that is needed to build a successful business and that is why I have combined 10 tips affiliate marketing tips for you here. I have separated the tips into 2 posts so that it is easier for you to digest.

If you are ready, let's start,

1. No

This probably is the most important tip.

Despite of what you have read, you are going to see a lot of people who will say no to your offer. You might perceive that your affiliate product is the best in the world and countless reviews probably say the same but there will still be people who refuse to buy from you.

And regardless of what you do, your prospects can still reject your proposal. Whether you believe it or not, there will still be prospects that won't download your product even you offer it as free (although a lot of people will download it, you still can't get 100% prospects to download the free product).

So, you see, it is not entirely your problem when people say no to your affiliate product. As long as you have done all you can and you believe that you have given 120% in promoting your product, that's it. Don't bad mouth about your prospects, don't pound your head on the wall and don't be upset with affiliate marketing.

What you need to do now is to pull yourself together and move on and focus on other prospects. Someone out there will appreciate your product and you just need to find him or her.

2. Plan

I can't stress enough of this. If you have been following my blog, you will notice that highlight a lot about planning when you join affiliate marketing. I understand as a newbie in the business, there will be flaw in your plan. Still, that isn't the reason you start your affiliate marketing business without a plan.

And it is because you have flaws in your plan that you have to start making one. You need to perfect your business and marketing plan as you go along with the business.

Let's be real here. Do you believe that the successful affiliate marketers out there make money with the business without a plan? One of the reasons they make so much with the business is because they are different from you. They started their business with a plan.

Besides, you will be more motivated to build your business when you have a plan to guide you where you need to go. Think about this, will you be more successful in this business with clear written out steps or running around in this business without specific aim?

3. Find a mentor

The reason is need to look for a mentor is because he or she has been with the business and they know affiliate marketing just like the back of their hand. Your mentor is going to show you the direct and simple way to make money with affiliate marketing. This can then save a lot of your effort, time and certainly money when you are building your business.

Now, I understand as a new affiliate marketer, you are eager to try anything that you think can help you to make money with the business. I was the same when I started the business. But speaking from my experience, you are better off to ask your mentor before you do anything with your idea.

Your mentor is going to analyze the idea with you and be honest with you whether your idea is workable or not. Remember this, you are like a small boat in a dark roaring sea when you just join affiliate marketing. Your mentor is like the lighthouse who will point you to the right path in this total darkness. You need one.

4. Be realistic

I believe your mentor told you that you need to be patience before you can start reaping money from affiliate marketing. And your mentor is right. You need to give time to your affiliate marketing business. It is not that you can't enjoy automated income, it is just that you need time to build it.

Rome was not build in one day, you know.

5. It really needs time

As mention above, you need time to grow your affiliate marketing business. There are cases where affiliate marketers who spend 3-5 years before they start to make money with affiliate marketing. Imagine the patience and frustration they have to go through yet they stay loyal with the business.

They believe in themselves. Now, the question is,

"Do you believe in yourself?"

I have seen affiliate marketers who throw in the towel when they fail to see money coming to them. While it is alright to give up on affiliate marketing when you have done all you can but before you give up on the business, have you try your best? Sometime, you can start to make money with the business when you change your approach to it.

Do that first before you pack your bag. I have faith in you.

To be continue...

If you want to start making money with affiliate marketing, take a look here.

Affiliate Marketing Will Be Easier

Have you ever wonder why affiliate marketing is so difficult? It is not because you don't know how to run your business and it is not because you don't know where to learn about the business. It is just because you are just not familiar with affiliate marketing.

It might sound lame, but things are like that, the more you do it, the easier they will be.

Do you remember the time when you learn to drive a stick, swim or cycle? You were struggling to balance, trying to float while moving forward in the pool and juggling between gear, single and focusing ahead. I believe you probably have fallen and hurt your knee, choke on water and nearly bang into another car or something else on the road.

Still, you manage to pull through and you can now drive, swim and cycle properly. Now, affiliate marketing is the same. The more you do it, the more you will be familiar with it and the more they will hard wire into you.

So, my friends, continue to market for your business and you will know the business like the back of your hand very soon. By that time, you will know which is a profitable niche just by looking at it and you can market it easily.

Link Building Tips

Let's imagine you have setup your own website and you are promoting your affiliate marketing business. But traffic won't come just because you have built your website. You need to build them too. How can you do that then? In this post, I am going to share with you some tips how you can generate traffic by linking to other sites.

1. Link through social networking site

Many affiliate marketers are leveraging on the increase popularity of social networking site like Facebook, MySpace and Twitter. You can advertise your affiliate marketing website in the user profile and link it back to your website.

And if you are using a blog to run your business, you can even RSS the content to the social networking site so that your friends and group members will be notify that you have updated your content.

2. Link through blogs

Speaking of blog, you should network with blogs that compliment with yours and you can ask the blog owners whether they can link back to your blog.

The secret to getting link through blogs is your content. Your readers are going to judge your base on your content and if you want to more links to link back to your blog, you better make sure that you publish quality content on your blog.

There are recommendations that you should comment on others blog post so that you can leave your link at the comment box. Now, there is nothing wrong with this method. However, I personally feel that it took me a lot of time to read and comment on other post. So, I have given up on this method already.

And I have noticed that there are people who used software or other automated method to post their comments and links on the blogs. I am not sure how this work but I guessed they maybe put a simple comment and their links in automation and blast the comments and links to the various blogs that they have chosen.

Now, this might improve your ranking on the search engines, but call me old fashion because I think you have to earn your link sincerely. If you want to earn your link this way, please make sure that you read the post and comment accordingly.

3. Link through forums

Forums linking is similar to blogs linking where you read the thread, leave your comment and link back to your affiliate marketing website through your signature. However, I personally prefer commenting on forums because you can learn different information that is happening in the affiliate marketing business.

And just to remind you, the internet is constantly changing and new ways to link back to your affiliate marketing business might evolve later in the future. So, it is good that you look at how other affiliate marketers link their business and keep your toes about the development of the business.

Create your success,
