So Many Affiliate Programs! Which One Do I Choose?

So Many Affiliate Programs! Which One Do I Choose? by: Greg LLoyd
You need to ask questions first before you join an affiliate program. Do a little research about the choices of program that you intend to join into. Get some answers because they will be the deciding point of what you will be achieving later on.
Will it cost you anything to join? Most affiliate programs being offered today are absolutely free of charge. So why settle for those that charge you some dollars before joining.
When do they issue the commission checks? Every program is different. Some issue their checks once a month, every quarter, etc. Select the one that is suited to your payment time choice. Many affiliate programs are setting a minimum earned commission amount that an affiliate must meet or exceed in order for their checks to be issued.
What is the hit per sale ratio? This is the average number of hits to a banner or text link it takes to generate a sale based on all affiliate statistics. This factor is extremely important because this will tell you how much traffic you must generate before you can earn a commission from the sale.
How are referrals from an affiliate’s site tracked and for how long do they remain in the system? You need to be confident on the program enough to track those people you refer from your site. This is the only way that you can credit for a sale. The period of time that those people stay in the system is also important. This is because some visitors do not buy initially but may want to return later to make the purchase. Know if you will still get credit for the sale if it is done some months from a certain day.
What are the kinds of affiliate stats available? Your choice of affiliate program should be capable of offering detailed stats. They should be available online anytime you decide to check them out. Constantly checking your individual stats is important to know how many impressions, hits and sales are already generated from your site. Impressions are the number of times the banner or text link was viewed by a visitor of your site. A hit is the one clicking on the banner or text links.
Does the affiliate program also pay for the hits and impressions besides the commissions on sales? It is important that impressions and hits are also paid, as this will add to the earnings you get from the sales commission. This is especially important if the program you are in offers low sales to be able to hit ratio.
Who is the online retailer? Find out whom you are doing business with to know if it is really a solid company. Know the products they are selling and the average amount they are achieving. The more you know about the retailer offering you the affiliate program, the easier it will be for you to know if that program is really for you and your site.
Is the affiliate a one tier or two tier program? A single tier program pays you only for the business you yourself have generated. A two tier program pays you for the business, plus it also pays you a commission on the on the sales generated by any affiliate you sponsor in your program. Some two-tier programs are even paying small fees on each new affiliate you sponsor. More like a recruitment fee.
Lastly, what is the amount of commission paid? 5% - 20% is the commission paid by most programs. .01% - .05% is the amount paid for each hit. If you find a program that also pays for impressions, the amount paid is not much at all. As you can see from the figures, you will now understand why the average sales amount and hit to sale ratio is important.
These are just some of the questions that needed answering first before you enter into an affiliate program. You should be familiar with the many important aspects that your chosen program should have before incorporating them into your website. Try to ask your affiliate program choices these questions. These can help you select the right program for you site from among the many available.

Affiliate Program

Do you know that by becoming affiliate partners, you could earn a handsome income? I can share with you a website that can give you more than $200. Try this site http://www.linkcapture.com
You could earn a lot more if you are an affiliate of http://superaffiliate handbook.com

Basically, there are a lot of sites which you can go to and register an an affiliate. However, you need to have either a PayPal or ClickBank account first. This would enable the affiliate company to deposit your income to your account.

Try to choose affiliate programs that are related to the topic of your site. It would be ridiculous if you were to promote health products on your site which talks about travel or pets!
Viewers would be confident with you if you could show that you are a professional even though the site that you have produced is your first! Try not to mess up your messages.

See you next time.

Affiliate Income Booster Techniques

Affiliate Income Booster Techniques
by Chris Small

The biggest source of my online income continues to be from participating in and promoting Affiliate Programs. They provide a steady flow of checks to the mail box. Some of these checks are for just a few dollars, and some of them are for several hundred dollars. But all of them are a direct result of the principles that we will be discussing in this report.
The simplicity of representing a ready-made marketing concept is truly enjoyable. All the hard work has been done in advance by the company. Your job is simply to market the product or service.

Please note that while this article is not intended to offend anyone, it is going to be direct and to the point. The candy coating has been removed.

It always amazes me when I look at the stats of People who join Affiliate Programs. Over 90% of them do absolutely nothing. They don't even so much as click onto their own affiliate page. Some of this may be due to a lack of knowledge or understanding of the process. Some have the impression that simply signing up will make them a success. But, the biggest reason, in my opinion, is that they just lose interest. They only have as much interest as it takes to get signed up and hope that the company or their upline will make them rich. They decide to "give it a try" and see what happens.

Basically, what it boils down to is that the new affiliate marketer must believe in the program AND IN THEMSELVES enough to take some serious action. Now if you are the type of person who is very intent on building a big affiliate income, keep reading. If you are only casually interested in Affiliate success, this article is not for you.

Promote Products and Services that YOU Believe In
First of all you must find a program that gets you excited. Yes, even with the anonymity that the Internet offers, your enthusiasm will be reflected loudly in your written words. Remember this, most people will make their purchase because of a testimonial or personal recommendation. Simply pasting pre written company materials is not going to yield the number of sign ups and sales that you want. You are going to have to communicate directly to the heart of your prospects. In order to do this effectively, you must exude enthusiasm and confidence.

Use Personal Endorsements
Personal endorsements and testimonials are going to provide far more credibility than banner ads and pretty pictures ever will. You must have them. Write your own. Ask your customers for feedback. Ask your upline for their testimonial. Ask your downline. Get as many legitimate words of praise for the program that you are promoting as possible.
Have you ever seen the ads that read; "I lost xx pounds - ask me how". They are everywhere; in newspapers, on buttons that people wear, Laundromat bulletin boards, bumper stickers, etc.. As distasteful as they may be, they are a testament to the power of personal testimonials.

Utilize the Full Value of Ezines
The most effective way to reach your prospects is through ezines. I won't go into all the reasons why you should have your own, there are already many fine articles on that subject. See http://www.worlddealcenter.com/guides/ezine.html for a good one. Let's just say that if you don't publish your own ezine, then you will have to pay someone else who does to present your marketing message. Even if you do have your own ezine it is very wise to buy or barter advertising space in other Internet newsletters to increase your exposure.

There are several ways present your message in ezines. The most common, but least effective, is through the use of classified ads. They do work, and are cheap to buy, but you will see far better results with a higher profile ad. Placing your message at or near the top of the publication gives it a much better chance of being seen. These "Sponsor Ads" or "Featured Ads" not only stand out from the rest of the ads, but they carry more credibility too. Also, many publishers will allow you to include more copy in the higher paying ads.

In your own ezine you can take your liberties and write full articles that discuss the merits of your affiliate program. This can be a very effective method, but you need to remember to write it with the readers interests in mind. Nothing turns people off faster than blatant self serving commercials. Always use the WIIFM principle. The reader needs to know, "What's In It For Me".

The Best Method
The absolute best way that I have found to promote any product or service on the Internet is by sending out special news releases or time sensitive updates to a targeted list of opt-in ezine subscribers. These solo mailings are separate from the regular ezine. They focus only on one program, or aspect of it. The results are astounding. Usually within a few hours you will see 90% of the action. If the copy is written well you can see a very high response rate.

Use Your Stats
One last method that helps me to focus my promotions effectively is simply to study the site logs and stats pages. Many Affiliate companies will provide you with a program stats page. Most of them are only about hits, sign ups and income. This is good information to know, but it doesn't let you know which ads are working the best. That's why I like to create redirect pages on my site that are trackable in my site server logs.

Here's how it works. You create an ad for XYZ affiliate and place it in an ezine (or on a web page). Instead of putting in a link to your affiliate page address, you would create a page on your site that automatically sends the visitor to the affiliate page. Each ad that you use would lead to a separate redirect page.

There are two main benefits to this.
1) The link address is going to look more professional and probably shorter. eg www.yourdomain.com/xyz3.htm.
2) You will be able to see in your server logs which ads are drawing the most hits. For more information about the mechanics of this, read one of my previous articles "Little Known Secrets of HTML" at http://www.worlddealcenter.com/HTMLsecrets.htm.

Be Wise
One caveat. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of Affiliate Programs floating around on the Internet for all kinds of products and services. Some of them are dogs. They just won't work, regardless of how well you promote them. Be wise in selecting the one(s) that you are going to invest your time and money into.

When you find a good one, practice the above methods, along with your own creativity and enthusiasm, and you too will experience the joy of opening envelopes with large checks in them. I look forward to reading YOUR success story.

6 Things To Increase Your Affiliate Income ...
by Nell Taliercio

So you've signed up for Affiliate Programs, posted links around the net but you're still only making pocket change? Wonder what others are doing that you aren't? Below you will find 6 things that every affiliate marketer needs to increase their income.

#1 - Your own Website: Build a website to promote the product. Make sure it has its own paid for domain name (yourproduct.com), not a free site like (yourproduct.othersitename.com). If you don't know how to build a website there are lots of places that offer simple site builders or you could choose to have someone build a site for you.

#2 - Write reviews: You need to know your product and preferable use it yourself so that you can write honest reviews about it. What better way to promote a product and get people to believe it's great than to say you use it too? Post these reviews on your website, in your newsletters, articles and any other site you visit that gives you an opportunity to do so.

#3 - Use a Blog: I recommend that you get a Blog and link back and forth to your website. This will allow you to create discussions on the blog about the product you are selling and list any updates to your regular website. Active Blogs are indexed quicker by many search engines than are new sites, and after the blog is indexed, the pages you have linked to the blog will also get indexed.

#4 - Write Articles: One of the best ways to become an expert on your product is to write articles on the Internet and include a link to your website in the resource box. There is a plethora of places to submit articles and the more you write, the more people will trust what you are saying. You get more exposure, more people coming to your website; more click thorough of your affiliate link to purchase the product thus making you more money.

#5 - Put your links in your signature lines: Never allow a sale to pass you by! If you are a member of even one forum, you need to have your affiliate link in your signature line. It's free advertisement and you never know who will see it and click through to check out your product.

#6 - Use Links instead of banners or buttons: Due to the overwhelming amount of pop-ups and flashy text that we get each time we visit a website, people have learned to block out these as well as banners and buttons. It's much more professional looking and effective to have a text link with a few lines about the product. If you are serious about increasing your affiliate income I suggest you at least do some further research on the things I have listed. If you choose to use these suggestions and take the time to do them correctly, I believe you will see an increase in your income.

Hentikan Membeli Panduan Perniagaan Internet Atau Menghadiri Seminar Perniagaan Internet Kerana Anda Sebenarnya Hanya Membazirkan Wang Dan Masa....

8 Julai, 2006
Dari: Mohd FairuzEmpayarInternet.com, Kuala Lumpur
Rakanku usahawan Internet,
Anda mungkin pernah membeli panduan perniagaan Internet, ataupun menghadiri seminar perniagaan Internet.
Apa yang anda dapat setelah darinya?
Bolehkah anda mempraktikkan apa yang dipelajari?
Sebagai seorang yang telah menceburkan diri dalam perniagaan Internet sejak tahun 1998, saya selalu menerima email dari rakyat Malaysia yang lain menyatakan kesukaran mereka untuk menceburkan diri dalam bidang ini.

Semuanya gara-gara dua perkara berikut:
1- ClickBank tidak lagi menerima permohonan rakyat Malaysia untuk membuka akaun, sama ada sebagai affiliate atau vendor.
2- Keuntungan yang diperolehi melalui Akaun PayPal tidak dapat dikeluarkan oleh rakyat Malaysia kecualilah jika mereka mempunyai akaun bank US.
Sekiranya anda tidak tahu apa-apa tentang ClickBank dan PayPal, kedua-dua syarikat ini menawarkan perkhidmatan menerima pembayaran kad kredit kepada usahawan Internet.
Yang lebih menariknya, ClickBank mempunyai sistem affiliate yang membolehkan anda mendapatkan keuntungan sehingga 75% dari produk-produk yang dijual di ClickBank.
Saya menganggap ClickBank sebagai 'lubuk emas' perniagaan Internet. Jika anda tidak percaya dengan saya, sila lihat penyata akaun ClickBank saya: (Semua urusniaga adalah dalam dollar Amerika)
Penyata bulan Ogos 2005
Penyata bulan Februari 2006
Salah satu cek ClickBank yang saya terima untuk tempoh 15 hari berniaga.

Anda mungkin bertanya:
Fairuz, tadi awak kata rakyat Malaysia tak boleh membuka akaun ClickBank, macam mana awak boleh memilikinya?
Bukan anda sahaja yang bertanya soalan ini. Saya sering ditanya oleh rakyat Malaysia yang lain mengenai soalan yang sama. Berikut adalah sebahagian dari e-mel yang saya terima:
Berbalik kepada soalan tadi, saya membuka akaun ClickBank pada tahun 1999. Ketika itu rakyat Malaysia boleh membuka seberapa banyak akaun ClickBank yang dia mahu. Tetapi beberapa tahun selepas itu, Malaysia telah dikeluarkan dari senarai negara yang dibenarkan mendaftar dengan ClickBank.

Jadi, untuk menjawab persoalan mengenai akaun ClickBank ini, saya telah membuat satu teori. Saya telah aplikasikan teori tersebut, dan saya berjaya membuka satu lagi akaun ClickBank. Walau bagaimanapun, saya tidak berani mengesyorkannya kepada rakyat Malaysia yang lain, kerana saya tidak pernah menggunakan akaun yang baru itu.

Begitu juga dengan masalah pengeluaran wang dari PayPal, saya tiada jawapan sebab semua wang PayPal saya digunakan untuk kegunaaan business Internet.

Dalam saya sedang tercari-cari penyelesaian sebenar untuk permasalahan ini, tiba-tiba saya didatangi oleh sepucuk e-mel dari seorang usahawan Internet Malaysia bernama Gobala Krishnan. Menurutnya, dia telah menjumpai penyelesaian kepada rakyat Malaysia yang ingin membuka akaun ClickBank, dan telah menyiapkan sebuah panduan khusus yang dinamakan sebagai Chapter-M untuk anda semua.
Apabila saya membaca panduan yang diberikan oleh Gobala, saya merasa amat puas hati kerana telah mendapat jawapan yang boleh saya kongsi bersama anda semua.

Gobala telah melantik EmpayarInternet.com sebagai pengedar yang sah kepada panduan beliau.

RUJ: Dilema Kekurangan Peluang e-Dagang Sebagai Rakyat Malaysia

Usahawan Internet Malaysia Yang Saya Hormati,
Hari ini, saya terima satu lagi e-mel daripada seorang usahawan Internet yang terdesak.

Siang malam, asyik masalah yang sama sahaja. Saya dah cukup bengang dan bosan mendengarnya. Masalah-masalah ini asyik menjadi penghalang bagi kita rakyat Malaysia yang serius ingin menjalankan perniagaan di Internet. Saya tak boleh lagi duduk diam dan biarkan mereka merana.

Ini masalahnya: Terdapat ramai Usahawan Internet baru seperti anda, yang telah menghabiskan banyak wang di seminar atau e-buku mengenai “Bagaimana Untuk Membuat Duit Di Internet”. Pada masa itu, anda rasa gembira sangat kerana seorang Mat Salleh beritahu betapa senangnya untuk buat duit dengan Clickbank™ dan Paypal™. Tanpa melengahkan masa, anda terus membuat perancangan mega anda, untuk meraih keuntungan jutaan Ringgit.
Tapi bila Mat Salleh itu pulang ke US ke UK ke (tak kiralah dari mana dia datang) dengan jet peribadinya (bersama-sama dengan wang anda), anda baru sedar akan 3 MASALAH BESAR yang dihadapi oleh usahawan Internet Malaysia:
Anda tidak boleh mendaftar dengan Clickbank – Clickbank tidak menerima keahlian daripada Malaysia. Yang sebenarnya, Malaysia tidak disenaraikan pun dalam senarai nama-nama negara keahliannya.
Anda tidak boleh mengeluarkan wang dari akaun Paypal anda – Anda ada idea yang hebat, menjual satu produk di EBay™ tetapi anda juga sedar bahawa anda tidak boleh memindahkan wang Paypal anda ke dalam bank akaun anda di Malaysia. Paypal tidak akan mengeluarkan cek dan anda tidak mempunyai bank akaun di US. Disebabkan ini, sementara orang lain buat jutaan duit, anda terlepas peluang sekali lagi.
Tanpa Kad Kredit, anda tidak boleh mula – Semua perniagaan Internet memerlukan kad kredit tapi anda tidak memiliknya. Anda telah cuba memohon tapi permohonan anda sentiasa ditolak. Akhir sekali anda berkata kepada diri anda sendiri, “Ah! Malaslah macam ni. Leceh betul! Mana boleh nak buat biznes internet ni??…”

Sudah berkali-kali saya mendengar masalah tersebut daripada rakyat Malaysia yang terdesak. Saya buat keputusan untuk selesaikan masalah ini. Saya tahu ianya dapat diatasi kerana saya sendiri menjual di Clickbank dan saya juga adalah ‘affiliate’ Clickbank sejak 2005. Saya juga ada akaun Paypal dan setiap bulan saya dapat mengeluarkan wang dari akaun Paypal saya kedalam akaun bank saya di Malaysia.

Saya dapat melakukan semua ini dengan mudah, 100% sah di sisi undang-undang tanpa masalah.
Ini yang hebatnya: Saya sendiri mengenali tidak kurang dari 5 orang Usahawan Internet Malaysia yang dapat buat perkara yang sama. Jadi persoalannya bukanlah “Boleh ke?” Tapi persoalannya, “Macam mana aku boleh buat?” dan “Kenapa tak ada siapa pun yang berkongsi maklumat ini?”

Saya faham apa yang anda rasakan.
Tidak lama dahulu, saya juga menghadapi masalah yang sama. Tapi sejak saya jadi Usahawan Internet sepenuh masa, saya telah berusaha dan mencari penyelesaian jangka-panjang untuk mengatasi “kekurangan” saya sebagai rakyat Malaysia. Saya telah mencuba pelbagai strategi (separuhnya menempuh kegagalan yang teruk) sehinggalah saya menjumpai PENYELESAIAN MUKTAMAD.

Gobala,
Every day I have to disappoint subscribers from Malaysia telling them that they will be unable to cash in on all those ClickBank profits awaiting them.
But now at last I can point them to Chapter-M - a book which explains with simple and clear instructions exactly what they have to do, using information I've not come across before. Well done on filling this great need.

Harvey Segal "Mr Super Tips"ClickBank Success ForumClickbankSuccessForum.com
Gobala,
Clickbank is truly an Internet gold mine, and I considered myself lucky for being able to get a Clickbank account before they decided to ban Malaysia from their country list.
Many Malaysians asked me how to open a Clickbank account. Even though I know several theories, I myself wasn't sure about them, until I read your report.
Man, you've done a great job! You're 100% correct when you said your report is a missing chapter in Malaysian e-commerce.

Mohd FairuzPowerProfitMarketing.com
Gobala,
It's a no-brainer!
This product must be owned by Malaysians who are thinking or are already running an Internet business, and don't have a clue on how to capitalize the power of ClickBank and PayPal.
I ordered this product even before I finished reading the entire website.
Now, I don't have to manually answer my fellow Malaysian subscribers who keep asking me the "How to open a ClickBank or PayPal account" question anymore. I simply refer them to Chapter-M!

Thank you for creating an awesome product that Malaysians will definitely appreciate.
Your friend,
Zamri Nanyan
Penang, Malaysiahttp://www.zamrinanyan.com/

It's great that somebody actually write this for Malaysians. For so long, Malaysians have been using Paypal but can'twithdraw them, accept to buy other things back online. Even with that, you are limited to the things that you can buy. Not everybody accepts Paypal.But then again, any business that is not accepting Paypalmay be sending a lot of money away. And previously, I knowthat some Malaysian merchants opt for third party to convert their Paypal fund to MYR. And they lose a lot of money in the process.With what you share in your ebook, now they don't have to. I think any Malaysians who wish to start a business onlineshould get your guide. It's a solution for the real world.

Saya telah menjumpai satu 'bab' yang tercicir dalam kesemua e-buku dan seminar-seminar yang hanya menjualkan satu impian kepada anda tapi tidak menunjukkan kepada anda bagaimana untuk mendapatkannya. Tiada siapa pun yang ingin menjawab persoalan-persoalan ini. Tiada siapa pun yang mahu turun ke padang dan membantu anda.

Tapi saya akan membantu anda.
Saya Telah Menemui Chapter-Malaysia,Dan Saya Mahu Kongsikan Bersama Anda Semua…
Saya telah kumpulkan kesemua strategi-strategi saya dan menjadikan ia kepada satu laporan yang mudah di baca, tiada-tokok-tambah-dan-tiada-karut. Laporan ini saya namakan Chapter-M. Tolong jangan beli sebarang e-buku atau pergi ke mana-mana seminar selagi anda belum membaca Chaptr-M. Tapi lainlah kalau anda mahu membazirkan kesemua wang anda, yang telah anda bertungkus lumus bekerja untuk mendapatkannya, kepada janji-janji kosong.

Rahsia Yang Terkandung Dalam Chapter-M: Ia bukanlah satu lagi laporan atau e-book yang berbentuk, “Bagaimana Untuk Buat Duit?” Kerana yang berbentuk itu sudah banyak dipasaran. Akan tetapi, Chapter-M adalah satu laporan yang telah ditulis khas untuk rakyat Malaysia seperti saya dan anda. Ia mempunyai 28 muka surat. Yang berikut ini adalah rahsia-rahsia dalam Chapter-M:

Bagaimana Hendak Mendaftar Dengan Clickbank® – Mereka tidak mahukan anda dan mereka memang tidak akan mahu anda. Tak percaya? Cuba anda pergi ke http://www.clickbank.com/ sekarang, dan cuba buka akaun baru. Saya akan tunjukkan satu strategi rahsia supaya anda dapat atasi masalah ini dan boleh mula menjual produk anda di Clickbank. Untuk pengetahuan anda, Clickbank adalah satu tempat pemasaran yang terbesar di Internet. Dengan maklumat dalam Chaptr-M ini, anda boleh mula mempromosikan produk-produk Clickbank yang sedang hangat di pasaran sebagai seorang ‘affiliate’ dan anda boleh mendapat pendapatan yang lebih daripada apa yang anda dapat sekarang.

Bagaimana Untuk Mendapat Cek Clickbank Di Pintu Rumah Anda – Saya akan tunjukkan bagaimana anda boleh melakukannya. Tidak kira samada anda tinggal di Kuala Lumpur ke Perlis ke Kota Bharu ke Kluang ke Kuching ke mahupun KK. Ianya boleh dilakukan, dan saya akan menunjukkannya satu-per-satu bagaimana hendak melakukannya. Bila anda berjaya melakukan ini, anda akan senyum memanjang ke bank untuk menunaikan cek-cek komisen anda itu.

Bagaimana Hendak Mendaftar Dengan Paypal® dan Buka Satu Bank Akaun Baru – Buat masa sekarang ini, anda boleh mendaftar dengan Paypal tapi anda tidak boleh mengeluarkan wang anda. Saya tahu bunyinya macam bodoh dan anda mungkin terfikir, “Kalau aku tak boleh keluarkan duit aku dari Paypal, buat apa Paypal bagi aku buka akaun dengan dia orang?” Itu satu persoalan yang bagus tapi tiada gunanya anda ajukan soalan itu kepada Paypal kerana Paypal tidak akan melayan anda. Walau bagaimanapun, kalau anda tahu apa yang perlu dibuat dan bagaimana untuk melakukannya, anda boleh selesaikan masalah ini untuk selama-lamanya.

Bagaimana Untuk Keluarkan Duit Daripada Paypal Dengan Senang – Saya akan tunjukkan kepada anda bagaimana anda boleh masukkan seberapa banyak duit daripada akaun Paypal anda ke dalam Maybank2u (atau bank lain) dengan selamat, dalam waktu 5 hari bekerja. Dengan maklumat ini, anda akan mempunyai aliran wang tunai (cash flow) yang lebih baik dan anda juga boleh membuat perancangan aktiviti perniagaan anda dengan lebih mantap.

Bagaimana Untuk Melindungi Akaun Paypal Anda – Anda mungkin akan terkejut pada satu hari nanti kerana Paypal telah membekukan akaun anda tanpa sebab. Saya akan tunjukkan bagaimana anda boleh elakkan diri daripada berlaku kepada akaun anda. Dengan maklumat ini, anda tidak akan buat perkara yang salah di kaca mata pihak pengurusan Paypal.

Bagaimana Untuk Menyelesaikan Masalah Paypal – Jika akaun Paypal anda dibekukan di masa akan datang (akaun saya pernah dibekukan), saya akan tunjukkan satu pelan ‘pemulihan’ (recovery) setapak-demi-setapak yang akan memastikan perniagaan anda boleh terus berjalan dengan lancar dan anda tidak akan kehilangan satu sen pun.

Bagaimana Hendak Mewujudkan Satu Pelan ‘Back-Up’ Paypal – Jangan sekali-kali letakkan wang anda dalam satu tempat. Anda ada buat begitu? Sebagai langkah berjaga-jaga, takut-takut tanpa sebab, Paypal membuat keputusan untuk membekukan akaun anda, saya akan tunjukkan kepada anda satu pelan strategi rahsia yang boleh menyelamatkan perniagaan anda. Dengan rahsia “Plan C” saya, anda boleh menukar kepada pemproses pembayaran yang alternative dalam masa yang singkat, hanya 3 saat sahaja. Ya! Saya juga akan beritahu anda apakah alternatif-alternatif tersebut.

Bagaimana Hendak Mulakan Perniagaan Internet Tanpa Kad Kredit – Kalau anda tidak mempunyai kad kredit, jangan risau. Orang lain mungkin mengatakan yang anda tiada harapan tapi saya akan tunjukkan pada anda satu penyelesaian yang mudah dan anda boleh mulakan e-dagang anda dengan serta merta. Jangan bimbang, ianya adalah 100% sah di sisi undang-undang!

Dan ada banyak lagi yang saya akan kongsikan….
Ya, Malaysia BOLEH! Kalau dunia luar tidak inginkan anda melakukan e-dagang dan Pemasaran Internet, adakah anda akan berputus asa? Atau …anda akan ‘lawan’ balik?

Anda perlu faham akan fakta ini - apabila anda berurusan dengan syarikat-syarikat gergasi dari US, mereka mungkin tidak tahu di mana letaknya Malaysia dalam peta dunia (atau tidak peduli) dan mereka hanya bersembunyi disebalik sistem mereka.

Selagi anda mengikut peraturan sistem mereka, anda akan selamat. Tapi kalau sistem mereka menolak anda, tiada faedahnya anda cuba menghubungi mereka untuk meminta bantuan. Adakah anda fikir yang staf-sokongan mereka prihatin tentang sesuatu selain daripada perkara yang memudahkan kerja mereka dan mendapat gaji bulanan?
Dengan ChapterM anda boleh atasi semua masalah-masalah anda. Saya tidak menggunakan taktik yang kotor. Saya juga tidak mengingkari Syarat Terma Servis mereka (Terms of Service) dan saya tidak mengaburi atau menipu sistem mereka. Apa yang saya lakukan hanyalah:
a. Mempelajari peraturan-peraturan yang diberikan dan…
b. Menggunakan peraturan-peraturan tersebut untuk manfaat saya.

Saya telah membaca Chapter-M dan saya dapati ianya mudah, terus-terang dan sangat unik. Saya masih belum menjumpai maklumat seperti ini dari tempat lain dan saya pasti akan mencadangkan ia kepada semua yang menghadiri Workshop Jutawan Internet saya.
Kalau anda berminat untuk mulakan perniagaan Internet anda sendiri di Malaysia, saya amat menggalakkan anda memiliki e-buku ini sebelum anda memulakan sesuatu.
Beliau memang seorang yang arif dan mengetahui apa yang dicakapkan.

Gobala, saya benci anda!

BUILDING AN AFFILIATE INCOME - PICKING PROFITABLE AFFILIATE PROGRAMS

BUILDING AN AFFILIATE INCOME - PICKING PROFITABLE AFFILIATE PROGRAMS
by Kevin Bidwell

It's a great feeling to open your mail and see a check there for $ 500 or more. It's an even greater feeling to get two or three! While there are hordes of affiliates out there who never make a sale or get a check, there are a few of us who get checks every month, all year long. No matter what kind of site you have, you want to be one of those people. There are several steps to building an effective affiliate income:
1. Identify a workable market niche.
2. Locate solid affiliate programs to offer that niche.
3. Build a site and newsletter with high-quality information tied to that niche.
4. Get your targeted visitors to the site and signed up for your newsletter.
5. Send your visitors with open and receptive minds to the affiliate sites you represent, ready to buy.
In this article I will look at the second step: Locating affiliate programs that will make you the long-term money you want and need. There are a number of places you can look for affiliate programs.

Here are a few I use:
Our Own Search Engine of Affiliate Programs http://www.nonstopenglish.com/partners.asp?p=Kevin
Our New Programs Mailer (this focuses on new two-tier affiliate programs): http://www.nonstopenglish.com/partners.asp?p=Kevin
Allan Gardyne's Associate Program Directory http://www.nonstopenglish.com/partners.asp?p=Kevin

Here is how you can identify a program that will make you a good income over the coming months and years:

1. MAKE SURE IT IS TARGETED TO YOUR NICHE
If your niche is radio controlled car racing enthusiasts, you don't want to offer them internet marketing courses. Instead, you will want to offer them products related to RC racing.

2. DETERMINE IF THE COMMISSION IS SUFFICIENT
Sending an email to your list doesn't cost you anything, right? WRONG! Here's why... Every time you send out an email about one product, you are giving up the opportunity to send out a recommendation on some other product. This is called opportunity cost. I do a product recommendation to my list about once per month. I know that the average return per subscriber for each of those mailers is around 10 to 20 cents per subscriber. If I choose to recommend a product to my list and the commission is too low, I may make only 2 cents per subscriber. So, that mailer "cost" me 8 cents per subscriber. That is a HUGE amount of wasted opportunity. The commission offered on your product needs to be enough to justify your cost in advertising the product. 40-50% of a digital product and 30-40% for a "hard good" is probably reasonable. If someone is trying to give you less than this you most likely need to walk away. Of course, re-curing commissions have a few other variables to consider.

3. MAKE SURE THE PAGE HAS A SOLID SALES PROCESS
Before you recommend a product--even if you truly believe in the product--make sure you take a close look at the sales process. Is the sales page readable? Compelling? If not, don't send people to the page--they aren't going to buy.

4. CHECK OUT THE PRODUCT YOURSELF DON'T RECOMMEND A PRODUCT YOU HAVEN'T AT LEAST *EXAMINED* YOURSELF!
Recommending products you have not looked at is like Russian roulette--you might get by with it for a couple spins, but eventually it will shoot you in the head. A well-known marketer recommended an ebook he had not read himself. He had read the first version, but not volume 2. Later, when it became obvious the product was pretty much a waste of money, the "guru's" recommendation--sent to his list--now appeared as a testimonial at the sales site. It hurt this guru's credibility and his own ability to make sales.

5. MAKE SURE SOLID TRACKING IS IN PLACE
You should be able to see how many visitors you have sent to the affiliate site, how many purchased and how much sales commission you have earned. This is a bare minimum. Following these five recommendations will go a long way toward getting you nice commission checks week after week. ============================================================ Kevin Bidwell is owner of http://www.nonstopenglish.com/partners.asp?p=Kevin Kevin just finished a complete report on building a passive income.

How I Earn 80k a year in Affiliate Income?

How I Earn 80k a year in Affiliate Income?
Jim Daniels shares his secrets to finding and working the right affiliate programs to bring in 80K a year - and how YOU can find the right program to help YOU do the same!
By Jim Daniels

A few years ago, when affiliate programs began to make their way onto the Net, I was already "living" online. So naturally, I was one of the very first marketers to take a look at this "new" online marketing idea.
And frankly, after a close look inside the numbers, what I saw was not overly exciting. But thanks to a little patience and a few strategies I developed, I've been able to generate affiliate income that most experts predicted was impossible (and continue to say it's impossible to this day!)

If you're looking to do the same, read on...
The very first affiliate program I reviewed, paid an average of ten percent commissions on each product sale my site generated. The products (mostly books) averaged around $15 so my share would be about a buck and a half per sale. I figured if I could get one sale out of every 35 visitors I sent to the site, that would be a decent conversion rate (better than average, actually). After doing a little math, I concluded that I would earn about $45 for every 1000 visitors I sent to the site.
But getting 1000 visitors to any given affiliate site meant I'd have to get about 10,000 visitors to my own site. If I could do that every week, I'd be doing OK for a small business site with a marketing budget close to zero. But I was already learning that it takes time and money to get 10,000 visitors a week. And let's see... for all my traffic generating efforts I would pull in a cool $180 a month? It didn't take a genius to figure out that it might not be worth the effort. I passed.

But I did NOT pass on the affiliate game altogether. I knew there was potential for excellent long-term income in the right affiliate programs so I bided my time and grew my website traffic and my ezine subscriber numbers. Meanwhile, I kept a close eye on the affiliate horizon.
Then during 1998 and 1999 I joined my first few serious affiliate programs. And to make a long story short, these few affiliate programs were responsible for over $80,000 in income at my website last year alone. Who says you can't make a decent income with affiliate programs?
While I've sampled a few other programs along the way, I continue to promote only a select few programs on a regular basis. As far as affiliate program marketing goes, you won't find too many marketers who are as picky as I am. But picky works. Had I joined that very first affiliate program I looked at, I would have been lucky to make $5,000 last year in affiliate income. Not bad, but a far cry from 80K.

So what programs pulled in 80k last year for me?
I'm not going to tell you!
That's right, you'll have to poke around at my website and find out. I did not write today's tip to round up more second-tier affiliates. I wrote it to show you the TRUE potential in affiliate program marketing and to explain exactly how you can grow affiliate income like I have.

So let's get to that next. What are the secrets to generating measurable affiliate income? Here they are in a nice five-step program...

1. Choose the right affiliate programs! As my example above shows, this important step can mean a difference of 75K a year, easily. The right programs for YOU are ...
a) programs that tie in with your site well (Ex: don't promote a dating service if your site focuses on business)
b) programs that you can get behind 100% and recommend personally to your website visitors, subscribers and all else who come in contact with your business
c) programs that pay serious commissions of 25% or more on sales -- and if you can earn residual or recurring income that's even better (Ex: services like web hosting require customers to pay monthly, so you as an affiliate can earn monthly too!)

2. Promote your best programs with personal recommendations at your website and in your email messages.
While most affiliate programs offer marketing assistance to their affiliates, your best bet is to form your own marketing plan and promotion material. This sets your affiliate site apart from thousands of others.
And don't forget, in order to truly make personal recommendations, you'll need to be a CUSTOMER as well. I see far too many affiliates making personal recommendations without even making the investment in the product or service they are promoting. Not only will you lose credibility when you do this, you'll be limiting your marketing potential by not knowing the product like you should.

3. Don't go affiliate crazy and promote too many programs.
A handful is fine, but a dozen or more cheapens the experience for your users. If you absolutely MUST promote lots of products and services, PERSONALLY RECOMMEND only a small number of them. Take your very best ONE or TWO affiliate programs and stick to recommending them as your staple. A premium service with a slightly higher than normal price tag and generous commission is ideal for this strategy. But be sure it is worth the price!

4. Don't expect to grow serious affiliate income without having a website of your own.
Too many newbies make this mistake. They think they can avoid ALL online business start-up time and expenses by joining an affiliate program and using the free site they get as their main site. It's a mistake. The best affiliates in EVERY program have their own website where they bring ALL their traffic first. From a "home base" like this you are free to make personal recommendations, promote a variety of programs and earn income other ways such as advertising or selling your own products and services. Growing your own site is a major key to growing serious long-term affiliate income.

5. Get help!
Don't go it alone. Ask successful affiliates how they've grown their incomes - most are happy to share the details. Read their books, take their courses and get on their subscriber lists. There's no point in trying to reinvent the wheel. Simply follow the path that other successful affiliates have taken before you and you can achieve success too. It really is that simple.

3 Simple Steps For Newbies To Start In Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is an arrangement between an online merchant and affiliate, in which the affiliate earns a commission for generating sales, leads and/or clicks for the merchant's web site.

Affiliate marketing works in a win-win situation for the merchant and the affiliate. The merchant gains opportunities to advertise his products for free to a larger market which will increase his sales. The more hard-working affiliates he gets, the more sales he can expect. By getting affiliates to market his products and services, he is saving himself time, effort and money in looking for possible markets and customers. When a client clicks on the link in the affiliate website and purchases the product, recommends it to others who look for the same item or buys it again, this way the merchant leverage his chances of earning. On the other hand, the affiliate marketer benefits from each customer who clicks on the link in his website and who actually purchases the product or avails of the service provided by the merchant. Usually the affiliate gets commission per sale, which can be fixed percentage or fixed amount. The best is that it won't cost a single dime to join an affiliate program.

If you want to be an affiliate marketer and make money out of the Internet, you may follow these three most basic steps to start your effective affiliate marketing campaign.

Your first step is to identify a particular niche you are interested in or passionate about so you won’t be bored and forced to develop your affiliate web site later on. Focusing on a specific area you known well, it will help you bring out your best. Here are a few places you can research on - ClickBank Marketplace, AssociatePrograms.com, LinkShare.com, CJ.com etc

Secondly is to look for good paying merchants and high converting products .Make a list of good paying and high converting affiliate programs for your chosen niche and create a website. In choosing the products, you must also consider the support they are giving - Marketing materials may include articles, text links, banner ads, classified ads, reports, etc.

There are many affiliate networks and affiliate solution providers that can give you info on the most profitable products and best paying merchants. So be wise enough to choose the right affiliate program.

Now that you have decided which products to promote and the merchant you are supporting and have created your own web site with a domain name and reliable hosting, you are ready to promote. This is the toughest part, since it is through this that you would be able to increase traffic to the business website, sales and of course, profit. In affiliate marketing, it is possible to earn large sums of money in a short span of time if you use the right strategies and methods.

On how to promote the products would need a separate discussion. You must continue to educate yourself by reading books, courses or other articles online about the best and proven advertising techniques.

Remember, there is no quick path towards success. Affiliate marketing may seem very tempting due to numerous encouraging testimonies of merchants and affiliate marketers alike who have benefited from it, but it really involves in a great deal of hard work and persistence. You also need to be creative and flexible.

Most affiliate marketers don’t understand this, so when they don’t make sales, they quit, look for other programs and carry on the same mistake. In the end, they said that affiliate marketing is just one of those scams in the Internet. You can work your way to great success if you employ the right strategies in affiliate marketing. You can make money as an affiliate marketer if you willing to do what it takes.

Affiliate Internet Marketing - Making A Success

So there you are sitting in front of your monitor while the others are all watching the latest soaps. Ad's are filling your screen as you click through them one by one looking for that perfect business opportunity that is going to make you rich beyond your wildest dreams.

Each sales page promises more than the previous and it is really becoming a difficult decision as to exactly how rich you want to be. The headlines scream at you, “Make One Million In 6 months”, “Write Your Own Paycheck”, “The Secret Of Earning Multiple Streams Of Income” and so it goes on.

You become so exited with your new found wealth that you give the dog your prime fillet which you bought an hour ago, knowing that after starting up you will never be looking back while the money pours into your bank account.

If this were true we would have a awful amount of extremely happy dogs not knowing the meaning of dog food, but in reality affiliate marketing is not what it seems.

However that which is stated is not entirely untrue. You can achieve all or many of what is mentioned, but you are not going to do it in 15 minutes per day and on autopilot.

Now, back to reality. How do I do it?

The easiest way starting out as a internet marketer is by being an affiliate for other peoples products. The reasons are quite simple and obvious, you do not need your own website and all the technical jargon associated with it and you don't have to spend money and time creating your own product. All you need to do is drive traffic to the affiliate site, they make the sales, you just pick up your cash.

To find products to promote as a affiliate is not difficult. There are thousands available for you to choose from. Some will charge money to join but most will be free.

As an affiliate marketer the aim is not promoting one product only, it's like putting all your eggs in one basket. Choose about 5 or even more in different areas, ones you find interesting and which you think might be good sellers. Take your time when choosing and read through everything, remember at the end of the day it will be your money driving traffic to that site, make your money work for you.

Here are a few things you need to keep in mind when choosing your affiliate products.

Have a look at when and how they pay you your commissions.

The percentage commission they will be paying you.

Preferably choose ones that pays a high commission and pays into your account as soon as the sale is made. That will keep you from losing money from sales because in many instances you will not be able to track any sales activity.

All that said and done you are now armed to the teeth with affiliate links, the dog is happily eating a prime fillet, so lets get on with it.

The most common way to generate traffic fast is PPC (pay per click). Google adwords is the big dog in town but there are a few others which you can easily find doing a simple search. It's quite easy to sign up and then you are ready to go.

Now the kind people from the affiliate programs you joined have possibly given you keywords that you can just copy and paste into your Google adwords. Now all you need to do is copy and paste them, make your bid and the money will start rolling in.

Here's the bad news, unless you are in business to lose money, this is all you will be doing and the dog will have to revert back to dog food and you to bread and water. Your advertising is going to cost you much more than your income.

This said, you can make it as a affiliate, and you can make a lot of money, you are however going to have to do some work.

Your main aim is to find cheap and underexposed keywords. Lets take a example of Google adwords.

If you copy and paste the keywords given to you, the chances are good that a lot of other affiliates are also using the exact same keywords. So for you to get ad into the top 10 or first page you will need to bid high. Let's say you end up bidding 50 cents for a pretty broad keyword. The product you are selling is selling for $47 of which you receive 50% commission, $23.50 less banking charges. In effect that means that for every 47 clicks you receive you must make one sale to just break even. I can tell you now on a broad keyword you will get 47 clicks but you will not get one sale. To find out how a keyword is performing and converting into sales is to base it on 200 clicks. When reaching that target take a look at the conversion rate, how many clicks per sale. If you have made no sales, or just one, you need to refine your keywords because you are hitting the wrong target market.

Where and how do you find and implement these seemingly elusive keywords. I mean there are only so many words in the English language!

Step 1

Take a good look at the affiliates website you joined, and see what it is that makes this a unique product that customers should have. Now please this answer does not lie in the first words you read on the page, the headline or sub headline. Read through the entire affiliate sales page and find your own unique ideas, be different.

Step two

Now that you have the idea clearly in your mind, think up a few keywords that fit this idea and will relate well to the product you are trying to sell. Come up with a few single words and some two word phrases. Write all of these down until you have about ten or fifteen.

Step Three

You have your adwords account, open the Overture keyword tool and use both of them. You can download Good Keywords for free and it will provide you with an enormous amount of information.

Take your single and two word phrases and combine them into three and four word phrases. Test these in your tools to see how many searches take place and test different combinations of these words until you find the right combination.

Once you have determined good combination keyword phrases, add them to your keyword list in your account. Chances are that you will be able to get into the top 10 easily with the lowest bid.

Target your market with specific targeted 3 and 4 word phrases, they will get you quality clicks, cheaply, with the target market generating sales.

You have heard the term find your niche over and over, but believe me if you are going to try to hit broadly you are going to lose money.

You can be a successful affiliate, but you need to put the time and effort in finding the right target audience for your product. Getting the balance right is the ultimate goal of your business.

Happy Marketing!

Affiliate Marketing - 5 Effective Ways To Get Started Building Profitable Websites

Affiliate Marketing - 5 Effective Ways To Get Started Building Profitable Websites
by: Dean Shainin

1. If you are planning to start an affiliate program, one of the things you have to consider is having your own website, not just an ordinary website but a professional looking one. How do you build an affiliate marketing website? What are the easy steps to build one? First, you must have already decided on the theme or niche of your website. It would be better if you already have an idea what products or services to promote as this would help you plan the design and lay-out of your web pages.

2. The next thing to do is to choose a domain name and get it hosted. The domain name is a unique name used to label the actual address of your website on the Internet. In deciding what domain name to register, look into the type of products you are endorsing and the theme of your site. Having the right keywords in your domain name would give you better chances of drawing more visitors to your website. Also, choose a top level domain or extension, such as .com because it is more popular. In selecting your web host, consider the security of servers and up time guarantees.

3. Now, you can start creating your web pages. Don’t be disheartened when you know a little in this field. There are page generation tools and fast launch sites available online; you just have to search for them. Countless online sources could help you build an affiliate marketing website, though you might need time to study and learn the whole process. This is one of the reasons why your site or the products you are going to promote must match your interest. Building your marketing website for the first time would be a lot more fun if you know very well the theme of your site. If you don’t have time to make your own website, you can use templates or purchase readily available websites. The latter, however, is a more expensive option.

4. The key to draw visitors to your website is to have high quality content; thus, the next thing you must pay attention to in building your marketing website is this. There may be several other factors that contribute to the success of your affiliate marketing site, but a good content tops the list. This is precisely the reason why users choose to enter your site. They want to get information and so when they don’t find it, they would definitely go elsewhere.

5. Make your site simple yet not without a touch of class in order to make it appear more of a business website rather than a personal website. This would be pleasing to the eyes and more interesting to browse. To help you with the design, you can check some successful online stores to get an idea on how you can make your site look better. Make sure you don’t place too many banner ads since these could distract some site users; and thus, instead of clicking your ad, they might just leave your site and look for other interesting websites. After all, banner ads are not the only means of advertising your products. Now your website is complete, submit its URL to major search engines to increase your traffic.

Grow from where you started. Learn about the use of keywords for search engine optimization and apply them in your content. Update your site regularly or add new web pages. Make sure to inform your prospects about the latest updates in your site. You can use newsletters to accomplish this. The Internet offers a huge source of information about just anything, make use of it. Continue to educate yourself on how to improve your website and soon you’ll find yourself successful in affiliate marketing.

With today’s internet technology you can easily get started in this lucrative field called “affiliate marketing.” You can do a simple online search and find several programs that may interest you.. Take some time to look into what you think will be of interest to you over a long period of time. After all, this will be your business.

Affiliate Marketing Programs - The Importance of Developing a Relationship with Each of Your Prospects

Affiliate Marketing Programs - The Importance of Developing a Relationship with Each of Your Prospects
by: David Cooper

When it comes to a successful marketing plan, there is no greater tool for converting potential prospects into long term clients than developing a relationship with each of your prospects. You may be able to offer potential business prospects the best quality products and service, but unless they see you as something other than an impersonal web page or catalog, there is little else to keep them loyal when another clever advertising campaign comes along.

Does this mean you have to become best friends with every new prospect you meet? of course not. If you tried, you'd not only come off as insincere, you'd never have time to get any real business done. The point here is to try to convey to your prospects that you see them as real people, and not just merely another cha-ching in your cash register. Everyone likes to feel that they matter, and this is what you will try to establish by developing a relationship with each of your prospects.

Here are some helpful tips for developing a relationship with each of your prospects based positive approaches, both online and off.

Present Yourself At Your Personal Best Both In Person And On The Web

No matter how rough of a work week you've had, when it's time to meet with a prospective client, don't skimp on the hygiene. Be sure you are perfectly groomed, and that your clothes are business-like, clean and pressed. Likewise for your vehicle. Be sure it is clean and looks well cared for. Remember, first impressions are the most important of all. You need to impress a potential client that the company you are representing is completely on the ball. Even though you will most likely be working out of your home, you never know who might stop by or who you might run into. Look successful!

Does your website look professional? You don't need green and hot pink flashing lettering to get a prospect's attention. Your website should instill a friendly one-on-one tone. Make sure your website is clean, easy to navigate for even the newest web browsers and really spells out what you're selling. Invite a dialogue with prospects and answer them in a friendly, positive tone as promptly as possible. Inspiring confidence is the first step to developing a relationship with each of your prospects.

Establish Common Ground

Resist the urge to jump right into the hard sale, it's a turn off and will hamper developing a relationship with each of your prospects. When you first meet a potential new client, don't be afraid to make some small talk to draw them out a little.

This doesn't mean that you should go into the week's weather report detail by detail. Again, you would come off as insincere. But if you happen to notice a family photo on your prospect's desk or mantel, don't be afraid to ask some polite questions about how the children are, and share a little relative info on your own children if you have them. Don't fabricate facts, honesty is always the best policy. Ask a few lightweight questions about anything your prospect brings up that actually interest you. This way you won't have to strain to have an actual conversation that is about more than just what you'd like to sell him.

Selling on the web is little harder, you don't have a physical presence. Most of your correspondence will be through e-mails and the occasional phone call. Words mean things, make yours count. Once again, be friendly in your responses, make them remember you. Answer any questions or concerns they might have about joining your affiliate program and then throw in something a little more personal. It can be that you were watching one foot of snow fall while you answered this e-mail, you just got back from a vacation or you're about to take one to XYZ place (if the prospect has been there, they'll let you know- people love to share travel stories), or just drop in a tidbit of your day and tell them you've had one of those "Calgon take me away kind of days!". Everyone can relate to a stressful day.

The key to developing an actual relationship with each of your prospects is to find some common ground that will help establish an immediate rapport between the two of you.

Soft Selling and Listening

As mentioned before, a hard sell will turn off many potential prospects. Far better to begin your sales pitch by inquiring about your prospect's needs. Give him a chance to tell you his own thoughts about what questions he has about your affiliate marketing program. People like to feel that someone is willing to listen to them. Businesses don't listen, people do.

This technique will actually help you to pinpoint the items you should be presenting first, and is indispensable to developing a relationship with each of your prospects. Your potential customer will become more relaxed with you when he realizes you are not ready to pounce from the word go.

Follow Up After The Sale

If you're fortunate enough to have made a good first impression and made the initial sale, your follow up is crucial. If you don't want to leave your new client feeling like a bride left at the alter, then within one week, send him a personal note of thanks for the opportunity to do business with him, and reiterate that you are always available to answer his questions or concerns. Then be available if he does happen to call or e-mail. If you're not in the office, then return his message immediately. This lets your new client know you still care about him after he has joined your affiliate marketing network.

Developing a relationship with each of your prospects is impossible without this kind of personal care after the sale. You are trying to establish yourself in your client's eyes as not merely a sales person with a great affiliate marketing program, but a real person, and a darn nice one to boot.

Side Benefits For You

There are other benefits to developing a relationship with each of your prospects. Sometimes something goes wrong and it's out of your hands to bring a quick resolution to your client's problem. Perhaps there is an unavoidable delay in shipping, or a computer glitch is making everything run late. If you've established a friendly trust between the two of you, your client is far more likely to stand by you during the difficulty if you've been there for him all along.

You'll also find that it's actually far more pleasant doing business with someone you've come to know a little. Developing a relationship with each of your prospects will do that for you, and you'll come to love your job that much more.

In a world full of impersonal online business transactions, there really is no substitute for developing a relationship with each of your prospects if you want to win and maintain their customer loyalty with your affiliate marketing program.

Affiliate Marketing - The Basics

Affiliate Marketing - The Basics

Imagine that you could earn commissions on a popular brand-name product just by placing a link on your website or in your email. That, my friends, is "Affiliate Marketing"!

OK... So it's not quite that simple, but it doesn't have to be much more complicated either.

Let's start with a few definitions. An advertiser, or merchant, is the company who is selling a product. An affiliate, sometimes referred to as a publisher or partner, is another person or company who assists in the promotion of the product and earns a commission for doing so. (That could be you!) In between is the account management service that partners the advertisers with the affiliates and keeps track of the sales and commissions.

If you want to become an affiliate, you first need to choose either a product you want to sell, or an account management service. You will end up with both, but the choice of one will determine the choice for the other. If you choose the product first, the advertiser will direct you to the account management service that they already work with. If you choose the account management service first, they will provide you with a list of merchants that they do business with.

To see if your favorite product or company offers an affiliate program, go to their website and check the menu bar or the bottom of the screen. Look around for the word "affiliate". Click on that link, read about their program and requirements, and fill out their application. Some companies require specific types of websites to place their links on. They will email you all you need to know to get started.

If you don't know what specific product you would like to promote, or if you want to promote several, I recommend browsing the participating merchants on the account management service's website.

Try to stick to products or ideas that you are familiar with and passionate about. It will be much easier to market to your visitors if you can add value to the link you want them to click on. Personal recommendations or stories will get way better results than just a banner or solo text link. Give them a reason to "click here".

Welcome to the world of Affiliate Marketing! Good luck with your new venture!

If you have even a passing interest in the topic of Affiliate, then you should take a look at the following information. This enlightening article presents some of the latest news on the subject of Affiliate.

Affiliate Marketing: Why is it One of the Most Cost-Effective Ways to Advertise your Business

When you think about Affiliate, what do you think of first? Which aspects of Affiliate are important, which are essential, and which ones can you take or leave? You be the judge.

Ever heard of affiliate programs? These are forms of Internet advertising that rewards the affiliates for driving traffic to the advertiser or for other transactions. The advertiser pays the affiliate to place a link on their website, and the affiliate sends traffic to the advertiser in return. Simply put, it's about paying commissions to people who help you make sales. It's that easy. NOT.

Affiliate marketing has its ups and downs. It could be draining if you are not armed with updated information and the technical how-tos. But this article's sole objective is to reach out to you and not to badmouth affiliate marketing.

Here are the following reasons on why web marketers go gaga over affiliate marketing as a form of Internet advertisement.

1. Low cost

Many are scared to go on a home based business because of the capital required. In affiliate marketing, you don't have to spend much to start raking in moolah.

2. Inventories not included

Product management fuss could be very stressing. An inventory is not asked to be maintained. The merchant does the maintenance required.

It's really a good idea to probe a little deeper into the subject of Affiliate. What you learn may give you the confidence you need to venture into new areas.

3. Unlimited income through leverage

See how much you can learn about Affiliate when you take a little time to read a well-researched article? Don't miss out on the rest of this great information.

When you have a paid job, your monthly income mainly relies on whether you go to work or not. With affiliate marketing, your affiliates could all just lead traffic to your site without having to lift a finger after providing them your ad copy and links. Though not every web marketer earns limitless, it still is a fact that all the necessary matters for the advertiser or Internet marketer are all there to be successful.

4. Go worldwide

With affiliate marketing, you are dealing with a global market place. All you have to do is choose a niche product and prepare all the necessary tools for your affiliates to lead traffic from just about anywhere to your website.

5. Low risk

The very main reason for Internet marketer's enthusiasm with affiliate marketing is its having a low risk factor. Especially for those with low budget set aside for advertising, affiliate marketing is just the way to do it.

6. No closing time

With affiliate marketing, your business works every single second of the day while targeting a worldwide market! What could be better than that?

But all of these will be put to waste if you don't have the right niche product and all the other important tools to make it big in affiliate marketing, i.e., well-SEO-ed website. So better work on this first before ever considering those benefits.
