“Using the services you promote through your affiliate links is both a vote of confidence in the services and can provide powerful outlets to promote the product.” – Neil Anuskiewicz

Why Affiliate Marketing is Important

Affiliate marketing started in 1998. The premise was very simple: there are e-commerce Websites that need visitors through various channels. Other Websites are a possible channel for making sales but you are only going to put a link on your Website if you earn a commission.

If you have affiliate links on your Website and a prospective buyer clicks one and buys, then you get a commission. The e-commerce site links the sale to the link on your Website through a unique offer code that is embedded in your link.

There are basically two kinds of products and services out there: those that customers have to re-purchase (e.g., books) and those that provide recurring revenue. A couple of examples of recurring revenue services are Web hosting and email marketing services. The thing that recurring revenue services have in common is that the customer does not, barring a problem with the service, make the buying decision over-and-over again each time they need the service. If they are happy with the service, they keep paying for it every single month.

Why is Recurring Revenue Better for Affiliate Marketers?

With a monthly recurring revenue service, you sell a customer the service once and they pay every month until they cancel the service. If you are part of a good affiliate programs with companies that sell high-quality recurring revenue services, you can earn commission from that customer’s buying decision for months or even years after the initial sale. As you bring in more business through your affiliate link, your monthly commissions grow. Over time the recurring commission can add up to a significant income stream.

If you are an affiliate for a Web site that sells a product like books, you get a commission every time someone clicks on your Website and buys a book from the company for which you are an affiliate. The problem is that you have to rely on people coming every month to buy books through your link and you have little opportunity to earn monthly, recurring revenue from the same customers. You have to rely on making a lot of sales through your affiliate link every month to keep the income flowing.

Use and Promote the Services

There is a saying in business that you should always use your own product or service. Someone who works at Ford probably does not drive into the parking lot at work in a Toyota and vice-a-versa. Using your own product or service is a vote of confidence. The same logic applies to those services for which you are an affiliate. Using the services you promote through your affiliate links is both a vote of confidence in the services and can provide powerful outlets to promote the product. This is especially true if the service you are promoting is a marketing service.

For example, if you are an affiliate of an Email Service Provider (ESP) you could actively use the service for your own email marketing needs, and include a link at the bottom of every email you send out promoting the service through your affiliate link. If one of your subscribers gets an attractive email newsletter or promotion they may be compelled to click on the affiliate link and sign up for the service. Those purchases can add greatly to your recurring revenue stream.

Fellow Affiliate Marketer,

Why do so many people try to make things so complicated?

Let me share something with you that is going to make you
rethink everything you’ve been taught about doing business
on the Internet.

How can you generate revenue online? What does it take?
Listen closely. It only takes two things (and two things
only!)…

** An offer and a buyer **

That’s it. Don’t lose sight of that reality despite all
of the “offers of the week” that come your way pitching
every resource they can think of.

In the end, what you need in order to create wealth online
is very simple…

** An offer and a buyer **

Now, if you want to make it even easier than that, you
certainly can. If you choose to promote someone else’s
products as an AFFILIATE, then you’ve got the “offer”
part taken care of.

As an affiliate, you only need ONE thing to generate
revenue…

** To find buyers **

That’s it. As an affiliate, you’re one and only objective
is to promote your affiliate link – to find buyers.

This doesn’t have to be complicated folks. You do one
thing, you promote your affiliate link. You get paid.
You ride happily off into the sunset. Fairy tale ending.

Now, to be sure, there are MANY different ways to
accomplish that “one thing”. In other words, there are
a lot of options for promoting your affiliate link.

-> How would you like to have some help in this area?

Jimmy D. Brown has launched a new website that is going
to make your life as “uncomplicated” as it possibly can
be while raking in affiliate commission checks.

His new Affiliatenaire site is a one-of-a-kind affiliate
training program. I say “one-of-a-kind” because his
SOLE PURPOSE is to help you FIND BUYERS.

That’s it. That’s what Affiliatenaire is all about. It
is designed to help you find buyers. It was created to
help you promote your affiliate link. That’s it.

Every week Jimmy will send you a 5-7 page lesson that
explains in “beginner language” a way to find buyers.
You follow the steps he lists. You get clicks on your
affiliate link. You earn referral commissions.

Want to know the best part?

You can complete each week’s assignment…

I’m not suggesting you “drop everything” just because
that’s what I’m supposed to say. I’m suggesting it because
there’s a good chance memberships won’t be available if
you wait until later.

Jimmy is only allowing a limited number of members to
join, so it’s important that you reserve your spot now.

To Your Affiliate Marketing Success,

Mark Tse

If you are interested in affiliate marketing, you are likely interested in the different ways to promote the products that you have chosen. There are several popular ways. They can all generate commissions for you, in other words, make money for you.

The most popular is probably pay per click marketing. Pay per click is when you place an ad on one of the major search engines. Every time someone clicks on the ad, you pay a predetermined price. If that person then purchases the advertised product, you earn a commission. It’s a great way to advertise, as long as you keep a close eye on your budget and don’t spend more then you earn. You can certainly make money with pay per click advertising.

Another popular way to affiliate market is by writing articles. You can write an article with information relating to the product you are marketing. There has to be good information contained in the article and the article cannot be simply a sales page for the product. Then you submit the article to one of the many article submission sites. At the bottom of each article, you are allowed to put a link to your website. This cannot be an affiliate link. This is a great way to get advertising for your website because your article can wind up all over the internet. People can copy your article for their ezines as long as they leave the author resource box intact. You will make money with article marketing, but it may take you longer.

Safelist advertising is basically email advertising, but you are assured of being spam free. To send email to a safelist, you need to join and agree to receive other peoples advertisement. You are then allowed to send them ads. Its an okay way to advertise, although I’m not sure how effective. People can get so many emails, they may just delete them automatically. I’m not sure if you will make money with this type of advertising. Some people swear by it, but it doesn’t seem like it works for me.

Placing classified ads is another way to advertise. This is low cost to no cost and can get you some great exposure.

There are many different ways to market products as an affiliate. The above are just a couple. If you are looking to start affiliate marketing, it’s a good idea to become familiar with all of the marketing methods. Its also a good idea to use more then just one method to get the best results form your affiliate marketing efforts. This is how you will make money.

Affiliate marketing is a great way to make money on the internet.
