Wealthy Affiliate Challenges

High-Ticket Conversion

• Luxury items or expensive services require more trust and consideration from the customer.
• Conversions take longer and require a more nuanced approach.

When starting you are going to experience the majority of the affiliate programs for beginners pay very low commission rates, if you want to earn more, you will need to be sharing higher prices products and services.

Competitive Landscape

• The affiliate space for high-ticket items is often crowded with established players.
• Standing out and building brand authority is crucial.

Wealthy Affiliate Members who catch on to how to research for keywords and rank will experience success sooner.

Step-by-Step Keyword Research Plan

I know many of you have read keyword research strategies in many of my other posts, but this is so important, I feel refreshing you with it once again is worth both of our time.

Brainstorming

• What products or services are you promoting?
• Jot down relevant terms related to your niche.
• Imagine what users might be searching for within your niche.
• Include informational queries besides transactional ones.

Once you can think like your target audience for searching, you are going to see more traffic and sales over time.

Keyword Research Tools

Free options

• Use search engine suggestions from Google and related searches at the bottom of search result pages to spark ideas.
• I always check what people are searching for answers for, you can get a jump on your competition by doing this.

Since 2016, I have been using exclusively Jaaxy for my keyword research. What I suggest is you experiment with several tools, then use the one that works the best for you.

Keyword Research with Jaaxy

Here's a step-by-step guide to get you started

Using Jaaxy's Keyword Research Tool

Enter your keyword(s) in the Jaaxy Keyword Research search bar.

• Choose your target search engine (e.g., Google, Bing).
• Include question keywords if you want to target informational searches.

Analyze Keyword Information

Avg. Monthly Searches

• This indicates the estimated average number of searches per month.
• I am not extra picky about this, I have learned over the years any traffic can provide you with sales.

QSR

• This shows the estimated competition level based on Jaaxy's analysis. Lower QSR indicates less competition.
• The lower the competition the better opportunity that you have for ranking.

SEO Page Rank

• This estimates the ranking difficulty for a specific keyword on a given domain
• I don't worry about this all that much as well.

You will want to look for keywords under 30 QSR. With a new website when possible, I research until I find QSR under 20 for even better ranking opportunities.

Choosing Your Keywords

• Look for keywords with a decent Avg. Monthly Searches and a manageable QSR.
• Consider your niche and competition tolerance when selecting keywords.
• Explore the "Long Tail Keywords" section below the results for additional long-tail variations related to your keyword(s).
• Research with the "Alphabet Soup" section.

Once you do this step, you can save your keywords in a list for easy access as you need them.

Keyword Lists

• Create a list of your chosen keywords.
• Integrate these keywords strategically into your content to improve search engine ranking and target the right audience.

I save my keyword lists under my website name, but you can name your list anything that works best for you.

Longtail Keywords

• Identify long-tail keywords - more specific phrases users might search for.
• These often have lower competition and higher conversion rates.
• Look for keyword suggestions within your chosen tool.

You might like to try my method to find longtail keywords, what I do is type in a problem my target audience might have and see what Jaaxy tells me. I get more traffic and sales with this method, so give this a try if you want to.

Building a Strong Foundation

Understanding Your Audience

Demographics

• Typically 35+ (may vary depending on the specific niche)
• The average income of your target audience
• Urban or suburban areas
• College degree or higher

You can refine the demographics according to your niche and your target audience, the more you know your target audience the better you can provide them with solutions to their problems.

Interests

• Goods and experiences
• Travel and leisure
• Personal growth and development
• Time-saving solutions

Depending on your niche the interests will be different than above, I listed this to give you an example.

Problem-Solving

• What problems is your target audience looking to solve?
• Lack of time for research
• Help to making decisions
• Information overload
• Finding trustworthy sources
• Providing products and services within their price range

The college student will not have the same price range as a businessman, so you need to consider this before doing your product reviews.

Optimizing Your Website

User Experience

• Maintain a professional and elegant website design. Simplicity and uncluttered layouts are key.
• Ensure easy navigation for users to find relevant information quickly.
• A seamless mobile experience is crucial, as more people are often researching and making decisions on their phones.

Product Presentations

• Use high-resolution images and videos that showcase the value proposition of your promoted products or services.
• Provide rich and informative descriptions that address the specific needs and problems of your target audience.
• Showcase testimonials, case studies, and expert reviews to build trust and credibility.

You must gain the confidence of your readers before they are going to buy from you, so this is a very important step in getting more sales.

Calls to Action

• Create a Call To Action that is specific and action-oriented.
• Place Call To Action prominently throughout your website, guiding users towards the desired action
• (e.g., "Schedule a Consultation," "Download Your Free Guide")

By understanding the unique buying habits and optimizing your Wealthy Affiliate website and content accordingly, you can increase your chances of converting them into loyal customers.

Marketing Strategies

Content Marketing for Wealthy Affiliates

• Creating valuable content that resonates with your target audience.
• Focus on building trust and authority
• Educational blog posts, in-depth reviews, and case studies.
• Leveraging SEO best practices for organic reach.

Email Marketing

• Building an engaged email list through targeted lead magnets (e-books, exclusive content).
• Segmenting your audience for personalized email campaigns.
• Create compelling email copy with a strong focus on providing value.
• You want to always be writing your content for your target audience
• Avoid falling into the trap of writing for search engines for ranking.

Final Thoughts

Researching effectively your target audience and keywords is where I would start, you then can learn advanced marketing strategies.
