What's the easiest and quickest way to increase your
affiliate earnings - without increasing your traffic'
Increase the *percentage* of your traffic that is actually
clicking your links and visiting the affiliate programs
you're promoting. And make sure as many as possible end up
BUYING.
But how'
The answer is targetting.
Infact, let me rephrase that - I call it "ultra-targetting".
In this article I'm going to show you how I use it to
achieve huge clickthrough rates. 10-15% is easy, and I
regularly achieve up to 33% - on a regular basis. That is,
for every 3 people that see my affiliate links, 1 of them
clicks one.
And that's amazing.
It's so simple, it would be too easy to overlook this
method, but when you compare the 0.5% clickthrough rate that
others are getting by using banners, and my 33% result, who
do you think is making more money from affiliate programs'!
Tell me - have you ever seen one of those story books where
you choose what happens'
The story starts, then you get two options of what happens
next. And based on what you decide you turn to a different
part of the book.
Then you read that and you get two more options and so on.
One book, but dozens of choices and different options taking
you off in all sorts of different directions - and also
leading to a different end.
That's exactly what your affiliate website should be.
Let's say, for the sake of argument, that you have an
affiliate site on the highly profitable subject of
computers.
Imagine the number of different people who could visit your
site.
Students, parents, business owners, companies, doctors and
more.
They might be looking for a cheap computer. A powerful
computer. A fast computer.
A computer with a flat screen. With a dvd drive. Or a
printer.
Wanting to use it for games. Work. Emailing. The Internet.
Desktop publishing.
Now what if you put one identical text link on every page of
your site' Something like:
"For the best deals I've found in computers, click here"
What would happen is two things:
Firstly, fewer people than can be achieved would click the
link because is doesn't specifically target their needs very
well.
After all, for someone searching for a computer to play
games on, a better link would be:
"For the best games computer I've found, click here"
Secondly, of those people that *do* click through, very few
will actually find what they want because you're not
specifically sending them to the exact product that matches
their needs.
Now, text links just like the example above, inserted at
both the top and bottom of every page, will garner much
higher clickthrough rates than any banner ad, but if we
ultra-target, we can boost our results much, much more.
Provide lots of options to ......
