We
often get asked by affiliates about how to successfully deal with
affiliate programs. There are many ways - and different Internet
"gurus" will give you different answers.
Here are the top seven tips that our top consulting editors normally
give:
1. Make no mistake about it - merchants and Internet marketers are in
business to make money for themselves. They are not interested in
helping you to take cash away from them. Their mission is to make as
much money as they can - and to give away the minimum they have to.
Many merchants and marketers use "tricks" and "tactics" to ensure that
they always get the best out of the deal.
2. You must be alert and awake - what tactics are merchants and
marketers using to grab your traffic? Many of them will "steal" your
traffic and you will not get as much as a simple "thank you" - let
alone the bags of cash they all promise.
3. Do you carefully follow what the merchants and marketers tell you?
They often give you "helpful advice" so that you may maximize your
affiliate income. Here's the sad truth - if you follow them like "blind
sheep" - you will increase their profits, not yours.
4. Do you monitor the level of traffic you generate for merchants and
marketers? Does this convert to sales and cash? If not, what is
happening to your traffic? You need to look into that.
5. Even when you get commissions, don't be too happy. The merchants and
marketers will proceed to make 10 to 100 times more out of your traffic
than they will ever share with you.
6. You are in business for yourself - when you market and promote
affiliate programs, they must generate money and cash flow for your
business. If you don't get reasonable returns on your time and cash
investment, dump the merchant or marketer. The program is either not
worth promoting or the merchant or marketer is abusing your efforts.
7. Promote affiliate programs under your own domain and branding -
don't give free advertising to merchants and marketers who may not be
interested in rewarding you for your efforts.
