Redirect a buyer to a page with relevant products
If you sell a product of your own from a website, once buyer finishes purchasing process, i.e. charging credit card, redirect him immediately to a page with products that compliment product he or she has just purchased. The idea here is to try to sell more products to same buyer while he is still in buying mood. Build mini sites for niche products
One of best approaches in promoting affiliate programs is to build mini websites dedicated to these programs. Here are steps you should take:
* Choose a market segment * Choose niche products for this particular market segment * Build a content rich mini website specifically oriented to this segment * Promote related affiliate programs through this website
Use free materials, programs etc. to attract visitors
People love free stuffs! Especially, if there are values in them! Many affiliate programs supply free materials like articles, e-books, programs, etc. in order to help affiliates market their products. Use these materials sporadically to lure customers. If you don’t get any worthy free materials from program owners, search for free relevant materials on Internet. You will be amazed to see quantity of free e-books, articles and other materials that you will be able to dig out! Create exit Pop-Up pages with specific and targeted offers
If visitor of your site is leaving, why not showing him a page with highly specific targeted product offers? Best idea is to create several pages with highly targeted products for different pages. If visitor browsed through a certain page, that means content of page some how interested him. If he decides to leave site right after viewing this page, it definitely makes sense to show him an exit pop-up page with products consistent to content of page. Build a directory of e-books, articles, and affiliate programs
Information is number one reason why people spend time online. It’s not always easy to create large amount of contents required to satisfy need of visitors. Why not use materials created by others for this purpose? Besides, you can also use those materials to promote affiliate programs of your choice. You can add materials to your directory yourself and you can also ask visitors to submit their materials in relevant categories. Post Pay per click ad on most successful affiliate program
If an affiliate program generates considerable revenue promote this particular program more aggressively by posting pay per click ad for this program.
Overture and Google Adwords are best options available for pay per click advertisement campaign.
Affiliate programs are great way of making money online! However, don’t expect an overnight success! Like any other business, here also you require proper planning and persistence. Most super affiliates confess that, in general, it takes one to two years of hard work to become successful in this field. So do your homework before jumping in!
