Every affiliate marketer is always looking for the successful
market that gives the biggest paycheck. Sometimes they think it
is a magic formula that is readily available for them. Actually,
it is more complicated than that. It is just good marketing
practices that have been proven over years of hard work and
dedication. There are tactics that have worked before with
online marketing and is continuing to work in the online
affiliate marketing world of today. With these top three
marketing tips, you will be able to able to increase your sales
and survive in the affiliate marketing online.
What are these three tactics?
1. Using unique web pages to promote each separate product you
are marketing. Do not lump all of it together just to save some
money on web hosting. It is best to have a site focusing on each
and every product and nothing more.
Always include product reviews on the website so visitors will
have an initial understanding on what the product can do to
those who buys them. Also include testimonials from users who
have already tried the product. Be sure that these customers are
more than willing to allow you to use their names and photos on
the site of the specific product you are marketing.
You can also write articles highlighting the uses of the product
and include them on the website as an additional page. Make the
pages attractive compelling and include calls to act on the
information. Each headline should attract the readers to try and
read more, even contact you. Highlight your special points. This
will help your readers to learn what the page is about and will
want to find out more.
2. Offer free reports to your readers. If possible position them
at the very top side of your page so it they simply cannot be
missed. Try to create autoresponder messages that will be mailed
to those who input their personal information into your sign up
box. According to research, a sale is closed usually on the
seventh contact with a prospect.
Only two things can possibly happen with the web page alone:
closed sale or the prospect leaving the page and never return
again. By placing useful information into their inboxes at
certain specified period, you will remind them of the product
they thought they want later and will find out that the sale is
closed. Be sure that the content is directed toward specific
reasons to buy the product. Do not make it sound like a sales
pitch.
Focus on important points like how your product can make life
and things easier and more enjoyable. Include compelling subject
lines in the email. As much as possible, avoid using the word
"free" because there are still older spam filters that dumps
those kind of contents into the junk before even anyone reading
them first. Convince those who signed up for your free reports
that they will be missing something big if they do not avail of
your products and services.
3. Get the kind of traffic that is targeted to your product.
Just think, if the person who visited your website has no
interest whatsoever in what you are offering, they will be among
those who move on and never come back. Write articles for
publication in e-zines and e-reports. This way you can locate
publications that is focusing on your target customers and what
you have put up might just grab their interest.
Try to write a minimum of 2 articles per week, with at least
300-600 words in length. By continuously writing and maintaining
these articles you can generate as many as 100 targeted readers
to your site in a day. Always remember that only 1 out of 100
people are likely to buy your product or get your services. If
you can generate as much as 1,000 targeted hits for your website
in a day, that means you can made 10 sales based on the average
statistic.
The tactics given above does not really sound very difficult to
do, if you think about it. It just requires a little time and an
action plan on your part.
