Make Money With Affiliate

Want To Make Money With Affiliate Marketing - Take It Seriously
Gary Ruplinger


When it comes to making money with affiliate marketing, there
are a lot of ways not to make money.

When a typical website owner hears that they can make money
with affiliate marketing, they go out and decide to put some
affiliate links up on their website. Since all the hype makes
affiliate marketing sound easy, they figure people will click
on those links and buy, buy, buy.

Two months later when they still haven't made a single sale,
they decide that affiliate marketing doesn't work. The problem
with affiliate marketing isn't that it doesn't work. It's just
that it's not quite as simple as all the hype makes it sound.

If you want to make money as an affiliate marketer, then you're
going to have to put some effort into making it work. Here are
some tips to making affiliate marketing work for you.

First, you need to treat affiliate marketing like a real part
of your business, and not just some extra links you put up on
your website. Put some thought into what you're promoting. Does
it mesh well with what your visitors or subscribers want? Next,
you need to take the time to review the product you're
promoting.

Yes, that means you're going to need to buy some products.

Yes, you may buy some products that turn out to be garbage. If
they are, you can return them. That's the point of a return
policy.

Your job is to find the products that will actually be useful
to your visitors and subscribers. Once you've found some good
products, you're ready to promote them.

No, you still can't just throw the links up haphazardly. Take
the time to write a review of the product. Make sure you
explain in detail your opinions about the product. Tell them
the good points of the product. Also, try to find a part about
the product that you find to be slightly negative. Not a point
that will break the deal, you are after all recommending this
product because you thought the product was useful and
beneficial. The point of saying something slightly negative is
that you don't sound like a sales pitch. You sound more like a
neutral third party.

When you send your visitors to the sales page already thinking
that this is a product they want, you'll find yourself making
significantly more affiliate sales.
