In the past you would have found it hard to find too many
people bashing affiliate marketing. It was new and it was
an exciting concept. Today affiliate marketing bashing is
more common than ever. I disagree with that and it really
makes me mad. In this article I want to show you how you
can still make money with affiliate marketing.
First of all, I should probably not say you can still make
money with affiliate marketing. The reason for that is that
some people have never made any money as an affiliate
selling other peoples stuff. The reasons that they have not
made any money are exactly the reasons that you still can.
Let me explain.
Most internet guru's will tell you that the first thing you
can never do if you want to make money with affiliate
marketing is use the website that comes with the affiliate
program. The reason for that is everyone else is already
doing that.
One big key to making money online is to try and be
different and you cannot be different if you are using the
same website that everybody else already has.
For years, I heard the saying the money is in the list. I
also heard that the fortune is in the follow-up. Now today,
more than ever, those two statements ring true. To make
money with affiliate marketing, you need to concentrate on
promoting what is called a landing page.
A landing page is also referred to as a splash page. This
is nothing more than a webpage that you drive traffic to
and trade something of value for your visitors contact
information. You then feed their contact information into
an autoresponder where you follow-up over and over
promoting various affiliate products that you sell.
This is still an excellent strategy and a great way to make
money as an affiliate. The only thing that's really
different about this now is once you've fed them into your
autoresponder you redirect them to your blog.
This is where they then have an opportunity to subscribe to
your RSS feed. Now every time you post in your blog, they
can receive the updates for it from your feed.
Let's see if we can quickly summarize this article. Yes,
you can make money with affiliate marketing. No you should
not do what everybody else is doing. Instead you should
build your own landing page and try and capture contact
information for future follow-up. You will need an
autoresponder and a blog to properly do this.
If you're willing to learn the basics, you can make not
only a little money with affiliate marketing, you can make
a lot of money!
