One of the
great things about affiliate marketing is the idea that you can
subscribe to as many different affiliate programs as you can manage,
all at the same time. We’ve talked in depth in previous articles
about how important it is to have some focus on your website so that
you can appeal to customers instead of appearing like a hodgepodge
of links. It’s a fine line to walk between having multiple streams
of income and having too many programs. Let’s take a look at the
right way to handle this problem.
• Make sure your streams relate to each other. This is a tip worth a
thousand bucks, alone. Think about it for a moment. Yes, you want to
have more than one program on your website at once, but you don’t
want 10 or 15 because it’s too much to manage. So, what’s the best
way to go? Have 4-5 and make them all related to each other! Say
your first program is through a company that sells pet supplies.
You’ve written some stellar content on pets sine it’s a passion of
yours, but you want more than one stream of income. How about a
program through a gourmet pet food distributor? You can SHARE
CONTENT then, since you already have great content written about
pets to begin with. Want more? Find a company that sells pet treats
from around the world. Or maybe one that specializes in pet
medications through the mail. The choices are endless and by
relating all of your companies, you won’t have to write separate
content for each program. You’ll save time and make money!
• Have fun with your content. Let’s say you find an affiliate
marketing program that you just have to add to your site, but it’s
about a topic you don’t know much about. Don’t worry! You can still
write interesting and informative content, even if it’s about a
product you’re not an expert on. Try a list. Just flip through the
TV listings this week and take a look at all the list shows on right
now. People love lists. You can make a quickie top-10 list style
article and relate it to your new affiliate program. This will allow
you to diversify your business and add extra streams of income at
the same time. You don’t want your site to be entirely lists, but
one out of three or four is fine and it makes your site appear more
fun!
Creating multiple steams of income is pretty easy when you look at
it. Group your products under the same umbrella to save time or add
a program that you can make funny and informative lists on. Your
site will benefit and you’ll have happy customers to boot!
Criteria for
Good affiliate program
One of the
most important things about affiliate marketing is choosing good
programs to join. There are certain criteria to look for in order to
differentiate the good from the bad. Here are some points to help
you choose.
• Firstly check the product. The best performing affiliates actually
use their sponsor’s products and know them well. Know the market
that will need these products and how to create a need for them.
• Check out the company carefully
• Not everyone can afford high end products so unless you are
familiar with special markets who can afford high priced goods stick
to the average market of $10-$500. It will be easier for you to
promote products in this range.
• Commissions: Be sure the company is offering a decent percentage.
Do not accept anything below 20% as it is not worth it.
• The company should also be offering good training and tools, their
success lies in your success.
• Be sure they offer good, quick customer support.
• There should be no obligation for you to buy the product
• There should be a good tracking system, showing your earnings in
real time
• The company should have a system in place to prevent theft of your
ID
• You should be paid at least once a month and the minimum payout
should not be more than $100. Also be sure that the company has a
convenient method of paying your commission.
With these points you will be able to have a good idea on what to
base your decision to join a program on. Carefully check out the
affiliate program before joining with these criteria in mind and
they will help you make the right decision. Joining the right
programs will put you on the road to success.
