The affiliate marketing tutorial
below will give you the formula to success so many are seeking. It goes without
saying that affiliate marketing can offer a tremendous income if you set your
business up correctly.
We
need to spend a moment on the structure of affiliate marketing so you know
exactly what to do and what not to do.
Affiliate
marketing companies are in business to make money. They do this in two ways.
First they have their affiliates who are promoting and selling their products.
So far everyone wins because the company is earning their profit and the
affiliate is getting their commission check.
It
is the second way that affiliate marketing companies earn money that is a bit deceptive
and you need to be careful. These companies will promote their tools that you
can use to build your business. They will offer sales pages, capture pages and
even autoresponders.
In
reality 95% of those companies are having your prospects go into their database
building their list and their company. Sure you end up with the bread crumbs in
the form of a commission check but it is also the largest reason affiliate fail
online.
In
turn the company will continue to market to the other 98 people who did not buy
the product. Many affiliate companies no longer have an obligation to you and
you just lost the most important part of your business, your list of prospects.
By
building your own blog first that is completely search engine optimized, you
are able to quickly generate hundreds of leads to your list where you can then
decide on the affiliate or network marketing company to promote.
What
you have done is taken control of your business and created multiple streams of
income instead of being under the control of one company.
Getting
tons of traffic to your blog is actually quite simple. Here is just one of the
many strategies we use to generate endless leads that are coming in every day:
- Once we create a blog post we
take the exact URL of that blog post over to Facebook and LinkedIn. This
one strategy brings in at least 5-10 leads per day
- Within both of these social
media sites you are able to join many groups within your niche. Simply type
your niche into their search bar and you will find plenty. Join at least
25-50 groups within both sites
- Now go into one of your groups
and click on link in Facebook and attach link in LinkedIn. Simply place
the exact URL of your most recent blog post into the box. Be sure you have
a relevant image within your blog post as both sites will pull that image
up for marketing.
- Your title, image and
description will all be filled in automatically making this extremely
simple. Now you can type one strong sentence in the comment box and click
share.
- If you repeat this process into
25 groups each day within both platforms you will create a lot of leads
for your blog and affiliate product as well as getting strong backlinks to
your blog which will bring in free traffic from Google.
