Choose Your Affiliate Marketing Programs Wisely!!

Not all affiliate programs are created equal. This is generally due to the reason that, some merchants or product owners don't really take care of their affiliates.

Either laziness or a lack of focus generally keeps them from developing their affiliate program to help affiliates maximize on their sales.

To start off, you will need to find the right product that you can promote. When I say right product, you need to evaluate the following:

1) Do they have affiliate tools? Good affiliate programs will have a wide variety of tools to help their affiliates sell their products.

E.g. Email templates, pop ups, banners of all sizes, e zine ads, free reports etc.

2) Do they have a variety of different affiliate promotions? It's hard for an affiliate to use the same promotion over and over again.

Think about it, would you want to send the same email to your list every month? No..not me. That's why it's important to find a program that is constantly updated, with fresh promotional materials.

3) What about training?

Training is very important, as it gives you, as an affiliate, an opportunity to get educated on the best methods for selling the merchant's products.

4) Does your program has tracking tools? Tracking is important as an affiliate, because you want to know what your most effective promotions are going to be. You should be able to measure your success. If you cannot measure it, you cannot manage it.

5) Do you get ongoing support? There is nothing more frustrating than having a question and not being able to find anyone to answer it. If you have questions, you want answers.

OK. So how are we doing so far?

The above questions will filter out most of the programs. Now after doing that, you have narrowed down your selection to some good ones.

Affiliate Marketing Tip: Keep Away from the Dud Affiliate Programs

Here are couple of other things that you need to focus on:

-> Popularity: A product is popular simply because, it can solve a problem. You need to get a first hand understanding of your niche market, and their requirements. This is where your market research and keyword research will come into play.

Must Read:

-> Pay-off: When you are starting your affiliate marketing campaign as a real business, you will invest a significant amount of time in researching the product and the market, setting up appropriate campaign etc.

So, you need to go for those affiliate programs that pays a good commission.

As a thumb rule, go for affiliate programs that pays you over $25 as commission. The more commission the better.

-> Presentation: When I say presentation, I mean the merchant's web page or the landing page, where you will send your visitor when he clicks on your affiliate link.

This part is extremely important. The sales copy should convert your suspect into a prospect.

Affiliate Marketing Tip

The appearance of the landing page should have at a minimum the following:

--- Professional look.

--- Easy to read and gives a clear picture of what the product is and the benefits.

--- Has adequate emotional drivers, like, the appeal and usefulness of the product in solving the visitor's problem, or providing all the information that your visitor is looking for.

--- Provides an urgency to the visitor to buy the product.

--- Has good number of satisfied customer testimonials.

--- Accepts all/most types of payments etc. Some good to have features are audio/video presentations.

I am telling you all this from my expensive experience.

> OK, now here is the trick. If the landing page is crappy, but pays good $$$ and the product is appealing to your niche market, then go ahead and promote this.

> But, you will need to write up a small sales page, or a squeeze page yourself and send your web traffic through your sales page first. Now, on this page you will pre-sell your visitor and will convert him into a warm buyer, and then send your visitor over to the merchant's page.

This way, for most part, you will not lose your visitor after sending him/her directly to the merchant's page, if that page is lousy. You get my point? Remember that, you are not selling to your visitor, but you are warming him/her up to the merchant's product.

This is a little bit tricky initially. But after some practice you will be good.
