Step-by-Step
Checklist To Affiliate Success With everything you’ve learned to date,
I’ll bet your head is swimming.
Below is a plan that you can implement to get you started on the road to affiliate success and profit. Get Organized! Pick on affiliate network
(I suggest Clickbank because it’s easy).
Spend a couple of hours learning the ins and outs of how it works.
Look at the gravity, sale percentages and pick some products and make some affiliate links so that you are fully familiar with how the process works.
Go to CB Trends and CB Engine and make sure you understand how they can help you pick winners. Stop by the Google Adwords tool and search for about 10
keywords for each product that you pick making sure that they are low competition, good traffic keywords and keyphrases.
Keep good notes about what you are doing so that you can refer back to them later. Sign up for Pay Per Click programs Get yourself the following Pay Per Click accounts: 40
Adwords,
Yahoo Publisher and MSN Adcenter accounts Make a decision about whether you are going to build a website or work strictly through Pay Per Click advertising. Sign up for Clickbank Sign up for Clickbank and get your nickname if you didn’t do that yesterday.
Go through the help files at Clickbank, Adwords, etc. so that you understand basically how each program works
Video Training Make a decision about which program you want to use to make your 1 minute videos. Look on YouTube and search under Camtasia training.
You will find a ton of videos on how to make a decent video.
Check out www.TubeMogul.com for free uploading of your videos after they’re done. If you want more options, there is a paid portion that will allow you to submit to more video sites.
Also,
you can consider Traffic Geyser for maximum coverage with videos, if you have some money to spend. www.trafficgeyser.com 41
Article Marketing Article Marketing is one of the easiest ways to get steady traffic to your website. Using good keyword/keyphrase research will get you a ton of traffic as you write articles based on the results.
In those article directories, you can put links back to your site and that will send traffic your way. Never submit the same article to multiple sites
You need to change your article by at least 50% for each site. This is not as hard as you might think.

Build Squidoo Lenses and Hubpages
Get some free pages which can act as intermediary sites which you can use to pre-sell your various products by writing articles presenting the products and writing about the features and benefits.
Build one Squidoo or Hubpage per article and product.
Avoid combining stuff on pages, because you want to give a clear message about each product or service that you are promoting.
You can build more than one page per product.
Look and think about the different angles you can bring to each product or service that you are promoting.
For instance:
list the features and benefits in general lens,
then build 4 or 5 lenses on specific sub-features where you only talk about that feature.
Then,
from the main lens or hubpage, you can link to the sub-feature pages.
Autoresponders Autoresponders are e-mail messages that are sent automatically when an e-mail arrives for a specific email account. The most common example of an - 44
- autoresponder is the ubiquitous "Out of Office" message sent by mail programs like Outlook and Eudora.
Web autoresponders are used by affiliate marketers to send responses to questions when they are away from the computer.
Autoresponders will answer questions, send information about a product or service.
They are also key to list building which is where many affiliate marketers make backend sales by sending follow-up messages.
Most web autoresponders give you unlimited autoresponse messages, and you can have multiple autoresponder addresses.
Autoresponders are inexpensive and are considered your silent 24/7 salesman.
Two good autoresponder companies that charge around $20 bucks a month include: Aweber – www.aweber.com GetResponse –
www.getresponse.com There are many other autoresponder companies out there, and you can even get autoresponders as part of your webhosting package.
However,
these two autoresponder companies offer a host of addition features and benefits that allow you to build a list super-fast. - 45 -
Backend sales on follow-up messages accounts for a large part of affiliate sales. It is a known fact that people need multiple exposures to a product to convert tire-kicking to sales. - 46 -
