Affiliate marketing can be a very lucrative income stream. There are successful affiliate marketers who earn $10,000 to $15,000 or more per month from affiliate programs. I have been searching for tactics and strategies used by these successful affiliate marketers. Here are the 12 tactics and strategies that I discovered.
Let's look at these tactics one at a time. Do Not Allow People To Rip Off A Piece Of Your Affiliate Income Most affiliate links are very obvious. If you've been on the Internet for a while, you'd know that this link http://hop.clickbank.net/hop.cgi?yourknickname/merchantnickname is a Clickbank link to a product that pays affiliate commissions. And if you've been on the Internet for a little bit longer, you'd know plenty of link-hijackers and link-bypassers would change that link to http://hop.clickbank.net/hop.cgi?theirnickname/merchantnickname. Or what about http://www.wonderfulproduct.com/yourid which they would change to http://www.wonderfulproduct.com/theirid or just plain http://www.wonderfulproduct.com? These people knew about the product through your hard work and yet you didn't get the credit. There's totally unfair.
In order to
stop
these people to rip off a piece of your affiliate income, you must
find a way to protect your affiliate link. Use Short, Simple, and Easy-To-Remember Affiliate Link It's a proven fact that if your affiliate link is short, simple, and easy-to-remember then you will get more clicks on it. That translates into more sales and therefore more profit. Instead of using an original affiliate link such as: http://www.wonderfulproduct.com/refer.php?prodid=18&affid=38046 you should use a shorter, simpler, and easier-to-remember link such as:
http://www.yoursite.com/product1.html Increase Your Selling Options Almost all promotion and marketing activities will lead to a merchant's sales page before reaching the product's order page. In this case, your selling options are quite limited. If you've written, or got your hands on, a killer sales message. It's almost guaranteed that when it's read the reader will want to go ahead and order the product. If you've already convinced someone to buy you don't want them to be distracted by going to visit a website. In this case, it's best to send them directly to the product's order page.
You will have more selling options
if you let people to order directly from e-mail messages, ezine
ads, as well as other ads that you can include the killer sales
msessage. Promote Programs With Lousy Sales Page But Great Product Most affiliates would abandon those affiliate programs with great product but lousy sales page. The low conversion rate just doesn't worth the time, effort, and investment to promote the product.
However,
if you could have
your own killer sales
page that links buyers directly to
the product's order page, you stand a much better
chance of making more sales. Increase Your Promotion Options Besides promoting affiliate products directly, do you know that you can also earn affiliate commission by promoting articles written by product owners?
Of course very few product owners would pay you commission
by promoting their articles per se, but you can do it creatively and
earn the affiliate commission indirectly. Able To Decide Which Product Page To Send Your Prospective Customers To There are quite a number of websites that sell multiple products but you as an affiliate have no choice other than send your prospective customer to just one page on the website via your affiliate link. Most visitors get frustrated being redirected to a page with multiple products on it and never take the effort to find the particular product you referred. Or else they get distracted, starts browsing here and there and forget which product they came to check out. So they might end up leaving the page without buying anything and you've lost that commission you should have netted.
However, if you could
focus
your promotion campaign via a link to a particular product page then your focused promotion efforts are sure to
generate more sales.
Sell Your Prospective Customers Two Products Every Time They Click One of Your Affiliate Links
If you use this
tactic in promoting affiliate programs, you can
double the number of hits that you
get to your affiliate pages. And that translates into more sales.
Even if your
prospective customer doesn't make a purchase at your first website,
he or she may well like the looks of your second product.
Invite Your Customers Into Your Sales Funnel for More Backend Sales After your prospective customers have finished reviewing your first two products, you should use this closing opportunity to invite them into your sales funnel for later backend sales.
It could be a simple
invitation for more information, free ezine, free
e-mail course, or follow-up sequence.
Regardless of how you do it, this is the appropriate time to get
their name and e-mail address.
Use "Unbiased" Product
Reviews to Get your
Visitor's Guard Down
Instead of using your affiliate
link, you can disguise your web page
as an "unbiased" review of the
product by using direct link to the
product's sales page instead of a
visible affiliate link. And
since
your product review seems unbiased,
your visitor will be less guarded,
and more likely to buy. Use Effective Tool of Generating Targeted Traffic Excellent Affiliate Product + Google AdWords = Big Profits You should seriously consider using Google AdWrods -- one of the most effective and powerful tools of generating targeted traffic. But there's one problem with Google AdWords. Anyone who has used Google AdWords knows that it does not allow you to use a web page with pop-ups as your destinations page. It means that you can't send your prospects directly to a product sales page it it uses pop-ups, regardless how well converted it is.
However, this problem should not
stop you from using this powerful
traffic generating tool. You should
find a
creative way to overcome this
problem. Get Other Super Affiliates to Make Money for You As an affiliate marketer you probably understand the value of two-tier and multi-tier affiliate program -- especially those with the potential of monthly residual income. For these kind of programs, you should promote both the products as well as the affiliate programs. If your visitors turns out to be a super affiliate, there's more residual income in the bank for you. Let's say that you're promoting a product that offers a great multi-tier affiliate program, but that the affiliate program requires you to use a different URL to promote the product and another one to promote the program. Now how do you make sure that another affiliate marketer who comes across it doesn't bypass your ID and sign up for it without giving you credit? Or that they leave your website, read a review on another website and sign up under that person?
Don't worry, you will find a way to
overcome this issue. Have Timely Access to Important Affiliate Programs and Products Information Have you ever been searching for an important affiliate link but somehow you could not find it? You know you have saved it in a file in your computer but you couldn't find it. If you had been in that kind of situation, you would know how important it is to keep and organize all your affiliate programs and products information systematically.

You may also be wondering how you too can make use of these tactics and strategies to dramatically increase your affiliate income. Well, you can spend time learning the required technical skills such as HTML, JavaScript, and database programming. Alternatively you may look for whether there is any software or tools out there that can help you to jumpstart the whole process.
