Affiliate Marketing Techniques To Make More Money

By Joseph Stan


Affiliate marketing has been around for a while and even though many people try to make it work over 90% of those who try it never make any money. Now there's a lot of competition in the affiliate marketing industry, especially in the search engines for the most profitable niches. The purpose of this article is to show you a few tips to help you increase your affiliate earnings.

As you know there are probably thousands of affiliate programs on the internet, but the big money comes from an specific type of affiliate programs. The best programs are those that pay recurring affiliate commissions, which means you can make money each month for recurring sales. You generate the sale once and you make money each month for the same sale. An example of programs that pay recurring commissions are webhosting programs, membership sites or software programs.

If you plan on advertising your affiliate product on your own site make sure you are not using pop-up ads. Not only are they really annoying but most browsers automatically block pop-ups. A good alternative might be pop-unders which are most likely to get seen and you won't be pushing a product in front of your visitors face.

If you own your own product you may want to have your own affiliate program. Offer to include your customers in your affiliate program. You can ask the customer if they would like to be an affiliate for you after they have made a purchase. One sale can lead to a multitude of them if you can get a customer interested in being an affiliate themselves. This practice can broaden your sales network and help you reap some real benefits from affiliate marketing.

Some affiliate marketers make the mistake to promote too many things at once. This with the goal of becoming super affiliates, but the truth is promoting too many stuff at once can be dangerous because you might lose focus. Instead try working with 2-3 programs and focus on those until you are able to make some good money. It takes time and energy to build a profitable affiliate marketing business, but if you are determined and create great content and stay focused there's no reason why you shouldn't make money.
