We all know that joining an affiliate program is worth absolutely nothing unless you have a significant sales force under your belt to promote it and build your income... You join a program, you get a replicated website with your affiliate info, they give you ads to promote, and all that good stuff...You're all excited (you're going to get some money!), but what now??? It's like giving you an arsenal of weapons, but then leaving you in a gigantic field, telling you to go get them!!! Get whom? Go where and How? OK! You start running in all directions, getting tired by
minute.
The Internet can be most confusing and distracting place you will ever be in... what you need is guidance and focus.
Downline building is a numbers game... A lot, and I mean ALOT of affiliates who signup will do nothing short of nothing, really! 5 to 10% of all signups will actually do what it takes to succeed... The rest, well, they signup and wait to earn money while doing nothing. So when I say it's a numbers game, I mean more you recruit, more chances you have of finding diamonds in rough...
I will give you 5 ways to start building your downline empire...
1. Advertise in Ezines Find Ezines or Newsletter directly related to what you're advertising. If you're advertising a Home Business Affiliate Program, find Ezines that are related to Home Business Opportunities, since it's readers subscribed to be informed of money making opportunities. Remember to keep track of your advertisement's performance, so you can weed out ezines that are not providing a good response.
2. Pay-Per-Click PPC is a great way to bring in affiliates. By bidding on a particular keyword or phrase, you can target exactly people wanting to register to your affiliate program. Well researched keyword bidding can turn out to be your best investment ever, if you know how... There are many good books on subject. There's one called "PPC Dynamic" in "Promotion Guide" Section of my website for FREE (see resource box for address), if you need to refer to it.
