What I am about to reveal will probably not make some fellow gurus happy, but this needs to be said:

- No matter what they say about affiliate marketing, it’s virtually impossible for everyone to get those 5,000 - 10,000 dollars a month they are raving on about. The reason? There is simply too much competition! However my fellow gurus are correct on one point: No money will fall into your hands if you are not doing anything to get it there…

I decided to help you get started in the right state of mind, by giving you these high level tips below, that will help you make some money with the different kinds of affiliate marketing programs you can find on the internet.

1. Google Adwords

Some say the days of free traffic are over, but there are still some traffic coming that way, however those hits are surely fading away quickly. You can choose to work hard creating web pages that rank well in the search engines, but still - it’s very hard to do. If you still feel like trying, there are lots of Search Engine Optimization Guides available for you to download, both paid and free.

Simply by paying for clicks with Google (it’s called the Adwords program), you can get the top three positions on the search engines that matter the most - in a matter of minutes. It may come as no surprise to you that there are lots of guides available on how to optimize your google adwords campaigns as well! Did you know that the “engine” that drives some of the traffic is called Adsense? The adsense program allows website owners to put ads on their sites, and when the ads are clicked - the site owner just made some cents online. Most Google Adwords Guides recommend turning off that part of the campaign, due to the click fraud involved, which will give you bad quality, non converting traffic.

2. Your own email list

Building an email list of subscribers is hard, but doable. The task of sending offers to your very own email list is the ideal way to build a residual income online. Instead of sending traffic away and hoping for the best, the best alternative for you (in my opinion) is having your own email list to which you will be able to send multiple offers on periodic intervals. There are lots of autoresponder services that you can subscribe to, and if you feel like having total control, there are several Autoresponder Scripts available for purchase as well.

3. Having Your own affiliate program

Did you know that the gurus are aware of the fact that every visitor that fills out form on your site can generate 50 cent in revenue? What about if you pay someone 25 cents (50% commission) to generate that same amount of traffic, that you would otherwise pay Google to get?

This is the secret most newbies don’t know (and that the gurus don’t want you to know about): Let others generate the traffic you need to make some sales! There are a lot of advantages using this approach, including the fact that now others pay Google to get the traffic for you.

Final Words:

Yes, when it all comes down to it, everything involves paying for traffic in one way or the other. Just remember - in order to make the online income you dream about, you’ll need to invest very wisely in the different kinds of advertising available to you.

To Your Success,

Build Your Mailing List

Posted: under General hot topic.

Unfortunately, most people are unlikely to revisit your web page without a compelling reason. No doubt, the impulsive nature of our surfing habits make it difficult to remember exactly which pages we have visited.

By leaving the website and not returning, each visitor takes away the money they could spend on your website, which is devastating even if you have 1,000 people a day coming to your site.

Making customers from those visitors is something that you could have accomplished. The bottom line is that your visitor may not come back to your website again unless you convince them to join your mailing list! Sadly, many website owners learn too late that offering great content is not enough.

If you really want to have your visitors return to your website, the best way to do this is by having them subscribe to your mailing list. Even if they are in a hurry, many visitors will still choose to opt-in on your mailing list on their way off your website.

Though they vary, your opt-in form should ask for the visitor’s email address and name. Visitors signed up on the mailing list provide you a way to follow their visit through with an email.

These give you a way to pitch your offer to your subscribers. Increasing your potential customers is the goal, and that goal can be achieved through getting as many subscribers as you can.

A simple way to build your list is through the writing of articles. The web is full of popular article directories, one of which is eZine articles, where people write and submit articles on a variety of topics.

Viral marketing can be rewarding when done through article writing. The articles provide a way to market your product, but more importantly, allow you to show your expertise in the area.

Mailing lists grow through the use of the resource box that is attached to the article. This tool, also called a bio box, should include information about you, such as what your site is about, and the URL of your site.

The URL you include should send visitors to the place on your website where they can sign up for your mailing list in order to maximize the size of your email list. As long as you write a decent article, the publishers of the online sites will approve it and republish your article - along with its helpful resource box.

Viral marketing doesn’t get much easier than that. The details that you include in your article are the key parts to making this an effective tool.
