Affiliate Revenue InformationDevelop An Financial gain
From Affiliate Programs
by:
Phil Wiley
Whenyou're trying to develop an financial gain
from affiliate programs, don't fall into the trap of only promoting information products or
tools aimed at Net
marketers.
Many people, even as those who have been in the game a long time, get stuck in this niche and ne'er
leave it. They forget that there's a whole wide earth of buyers out there simply waiting to be oversubscribed to.
I guess it's natural for many an folk to start off commercialism marketing ebooks, member only sites, and related products. After all, it's what they're interested in so they tend to think everyone else is. But actually they're playing in a really small arena.
Another reason is that these products are pushed into their faces all the time...in newsletters like mine :-)
People likewise tend to promote products in the really narrow Net
marketing niche because they generally pay a more higher affiliate percentage, often 50%.
All well and good, but we're all commercialism to each else and competition is fierce.
I hate victimisation that clichéd expression "think outside the box" so I won't.
But what you need to do is take a nice look about the net. Study what folk are buying.
Remember how in last weeks newsletter, and in the week before's I talked simply about building 2 mini sites a week... locution that if they all only ready-made $50 a week after a year you'd end up with a weekly financial gain
of over $5000?

Well the health related mini site I built simply over 2 weeks ago has actually taken off, and last week it grossed $5695 paying me $348 in commissions. See screenshot.
It's doing well because:
Competition for sales is fairly low in this niche. (you'll find that nearly EVERY niche has lower competition that the overcrowded marketing niche.)
It's a tangible product that folk spend big sums on.
Health is a large industry...most of us want to live to old age. I'm nearly there :-) We're an aging society so demand in this field wish support growing.
Now $348 is nothing startling, and I expect this to grow as the site makes better in the search engines. But my total price have been under nine dollars for the domain name, and about $25 on Google
Adwords.
I can't actually take hosting price into consideration because I pay simply $29 a month to host up to 200 sites
The money spent on Google Adwords wish not be ongoing. The way I presently
activity is to list a site with one or two of the pay-per-clicks until they take off in the no fee search engines. See Allan Gardyne's Pay Per Click Search Engines site for proposal
on victimisation them
The downside, if it can be called a downside, is that commissions are ordinarily more lower in this and else niches.
But that's got to be balanced against the fact that there are a lot more potential buyers in this (and many
other) fields, and that folk often spend bigger sums.
So even as if you only do 3 to 8 per centum on sales of big item products it can presently
add up.
The same
Allan Gardyne, who makes Really well marketing to marketers, is causal agency who actually understands the importance of targeting else areas.
Take a look, for instance, at this site his assistant Prince built victimisation Site Build It.
It's production
about $1000 a month in affiliate financial gain
but the affiliate program the site is joined
to, Tiger Direct, only pays 3 percent.
So as usual I've taken a long time to get about to the point of all this, which is you've GOT TO look at increasing
into else niches.
Tip 1:
Look at victimisation Nichefinder to help you locate profitable niches to build sites around.
Tip 2:
Wordtracker is another really useful tool. I've got an annual account I use some times a week
Tip 3:
Read my book Mini Site Profits to see how I'm doing it.
Tip 5:
If you want to build a text based site like Allan's, which ranks really high in the search engines, and you're not comfortable doing it all on your own use Site Build It.
2. Value Exchange.
And spell we're talking of Ken Evoy's Site Build It, he's simply discharged a new free service which helps you find exchange links for your sites.
By entering your site details it registers your site (which doesn't have to be a Site Build It one) as a site that is willing to exchange links with else sites that have a similar theme/topic content (the engines weight a link less heavily if the linking site is not of a similar nature to yours)
It likewise searches for similar sites, ones with topical content that relates to yours.
Like I said, it's a free service, so do use of it.
