By Charles Kangethe
Posted Monday, August 23, 2004
I've got a confession to make... what I am about to reveal is the way I started out my Internet Marketing career.
It got me on the right track and it can work for you to.
I still use this technique for earning "Residual Income The Lazy Way" and I recommend it for:
* New Marketers :
This is how to earn a residual income while you learn the ropes of your new chosen career.
* Experienced Marketers :
You will see the potential to create new, powerful income streams to supplement your existing product base.
Step #1 - Find Six Affiliate Programs.
--------------------------------------
Joining good affiliate programs is the easiest and quickest way to create new, powerful, revenue streams for all marketers.
* Top Ten Tips for working with an affiliate program
1) Choose programs that have a pay plan extending a number of levels down - This builds Leveraged AND Residual Income.
2) Make sure when you direct visitors to your affiliate program, their browser opens a new window. This ensures when they close the affiliate site, your site is still open.
3) Use a cloaked redirect link to the affiliate site to prevent opportunist stripping out of your affiliate id.
4) Using a product like AdGizmo or Shrink My Link, observe Click Through Rates (CTR) on your affiliate links to determine which links pull visitor attention, and therefore which ones you should spend time and effort on.
5) Measure Click Through To Sales ratios to see which programs are delivering bottom line cash. Drop non-sellers and find better performing programs.
6) Use products and services of the affiliate programs you promote. This gives your recommendations a personal stamp of authority.
7) Use a combination of your own ad copy as well as the affiliate program owner's copy. This makes your promotion and campaign stand out from other affiliates.
8) Set deadlines for your expectation of profit on a program. If it does not meet your deadlines, drop it and seek better opportunities or change your marketing techniques.
9) Find winners and promote the programs hard. These programs can make you large residual and leveraged income for very little work.
10) Promote affiliate programs offering complimentary products and services on your web site. For instance, if you run a Sports site - promote programs offering products
with a Sporting theme.
