​Are You Thoroughly Disgusted with Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is a tough business. Once that you realize that it is:

1. Tough, and

2. A business, it helps.

If you are going to promote a product as an affiliate, just putting your affiliate link on your website is NOT going to do it. Here are some criteria:

1. Know your product inside and out.

2. Use your product.

3. Be excited about your product.

4. Trust your product.

5. Testify of the usefulness (to you) of your product.

6. Keep posting about your product until you have written about it about 10 times, pointing out various benefits and twist.

7. Reporting on the use of your product by you and others (testimonies).

8. Be able to suggest backup products to your buyers. (So you may want to keep track of your buyers.)

9. Promote related products.

10. Use keyword and SEO techniques to promote your products including social marketing.

I also suggest that you contact your affiliate manager. He or she will know what is going on, what works, who is making the big bucks, etc.

He or she will guide you to markets in and out of the country.

Ask your affiliate manager about PPC marketing.

PPC is a good way to check out your keywords too.

One other thing.

Make sure your domain reflects your market. You may want to create a new domain for your product from the start. It can pay off.

Think about it!

You are in business to make money, not for your health.

Hi John,

Your WAU Website looks good. Thanks for the tips.

Thanks John, good stuff... that's exactly why I'm following you. Phil

My blogs use to make the top 10 quickly. Recently they have not even made the top 10 so I decided to quit. This is my last try. There are so many post to compete with. I spend my time writing and posting on my sites now. Not much time here anymore. My ranking is going into the dumps. Thanks for stopping by, Phil. John

John, I sent you a PM, if and when you get a chance...
