Make More Money With Clickbank - SECRETS Tips - 2016
Now comes the true test of your affiliate marketing mettle: the marketing. Marketing your product is by far the most important, and most time-consuming, step on your way to success, and because of that, many people try to take shortcuts. They focus on what they think rather than what their customers want. They prioritize loudness over intelligence. They assume shoving a product in someones face will persuade them to buy it. But that's now how it works.
Here are some tips for promoting your product.
Don’t go overboard on banners and direct links
Adverts such as these perpetrate an all too common crime: they don’t presell. Preselling is the art of fostering trust and rapport with your customers. It helps forge a relationship, and warms them up for the eventual sale. Failing to presell is the “Geez, buy me a drink first,” of marketing mistakes.
Focus on contextual text links
Contextual text links are links embedded in the text, and they're very conducive to pre-selling. If done right, they don't feel like promotions at all. They feel like recommendations.
Case in point, scroll up a few paragraphs and find the link to keywordtool.io. That's a contextual text link. Too bad I don't get paid if you click on it. I really need new shower curtains.
Write reviews
Product reviews are like the Ray-Bans of affiliate marketing: they never go out of style. If a customer is interested in a product, chances are they're going to search for product reviews, so might as well kill two birds with one stone.
But because reviews are so popular in affiliate marketing, competition is high, and traffic on keywords is low. Highly targeted niches help avoid this issue, but be prepared to work hard and churn out a lot of reviews before you see significant traffic, clicks, and conversions.
Build a media funnel
As affiliate marketing tactics go, a media funnel is the most involved, and the most effective. It works like this:
First you create a piece of content that complements a product you are trying to sell. For example, if the product is an e-book called The History of String Cheese, you could write a mini-guide on how to make your own string cheese, and offer it for free.
Then you use all available resources to drive traffic to the mini-guide. In order for people to access the guide, ask them for their email address.
The sales pitch for The History of String Cheese e-book comes at the end of the mini-guide. If your mini-guide has successfully whetted people’s appetite, you should see a good number of purchases.
Plus you have their emails, and can use them to alert customers of other offers.
Media funnels are also shareable. No one (hopefully) is going to post a link to a sales page on Facebook, but they might post a blog post about the mini-guide that eventually leads to the sales page.
