90% of affiliates will make less than a 100$
a month. Therefore, you shouldn't count on making a
full time income unless you can get very good at the
following:
1. Building a good web site that converts.
2. Search engine optimization. You'll need a
lot of traffic, as maybe 1 out of 200 visitors will
buy your products. SEO can help you get your site
in the search engines so more people will be able to
find you.
3. The trial and error of picking the right
merchants and learning the correct ways to promote
them.
4. Build a list of subscribers.
Many people online assume that affiliate
marketing is a get rich quick type of
program. These newbies will place a
couple of free banners on various sites , then wonder why they never make
a single sale or any money at all.
How long you'll need to see a profit depends on how much
money you want to make and invest in paid advertising.
If you decide Affiliate Marketing is for you then the hardest challenge
will be the first few months. If you check your
stats and see that you are only making a small profit,
you'll find yourself wondering if all the
hard work was worth it. If you get some sales
going and stay committed and focused with your hard work, the
commissions should start growing.
One of the biggest factors with affiliate marketing
is the traffic that goes through your site. Even
though you'll get a lot of traffic passing through
your website, only a fraction will be
buyers.
The key here is knowing your visitors and then
being able to determine which affiliate programs
you can offer to meet their needs. There is also
the concept of pre sale, which is the ability
to put your visitors in the required open and
mind set that's required for them to actually click
on what you are selling.
By sticking with affiliate marketing, you'll learn
more about how and where to promote your Affiliate products.
You can't expect to be the best when you first start
, it takes a lot
of hard work and dedication. By putting the time
and effort into your programs, you'll be well on
your way to making it in the very profitable and
exciting world of affiliate marketing.
