The latest craze are videos. You know it and I know it.
Youtube is the biggest video sharing site on the web and
guess what, the smart people are using it to make serious
money on the web!
With a simple video camera or web cam you have the
opportunity to reach out to millions of people. By playing
your cards right, you can win the interest of your viewers
as well as make huge money with affiliate programs!
Do you know what affiliate programs are? An affiliate
program is a simple system where YOU, the affiliate,
promote other people's products online by signing up to
their affiliate program and in return you can make
commissions for each sale you refer through your referral
link.
The coolest thing about using video and affiliate programs
are that you basically don't incur any cost!
If you are creating videos that has to do with dog
training, then you can easily sign up to a free dog
training affiliate program and show the link in your video
or even put it on your video's profile.
But affiliate links are usually very long, so you'll need
to shorten it by purchasing your own domain name.
It will cost you a measly $9 in total. Go to a website
called GoDaddy and then purchase your domain there. Then
set up DOMAIN MASKING also called URL MASKING and set it so
that it redirects your domain to your affiliate link. That
means that if somebody loads your domain in their browser,
it redirects them to the affiliate link.
If you don't have a clue what this is or how to do this,
just contact GoDaddy support and they'll assist you very
quickly.
So what types of products should you promote via video?
First of all, you get 2 types of products:
1. Digital products
2. Physical products
When you are promoting an affiliate product using videos,
promote a PHYSICAL product. You should showcase the product
in your videos.
The problem is, most people don't have the money to
actually purchase the product. There is a solution to this
problem.
Ask your affiliate manager or the merchant if they can send
you a sample of the product for free or even the product
itself.
Tell them that you want to create a fully blown video
series on the product and that the product will be featured
on several videos. For instance, if you are promoting a
certain dog training DVD course, you can show people videos
of a disobedient dog and then show them the DVD course in
the video afterwards. It's very powerful and it works! They
will definitely type your domain into the browser and then
boom, they'll go through your hidden referral link!
But what about digital products then?
The only digital products I recommend you promote are
services which people can sign up for free and you get
paid. Like the social site Yuwee and other CPA affiliate
offers. Just Google "CPA Affiliate Program" and sign up to
a few.
Just remember that whatever product you are promoting on
your video, it HAS to be relevant to what your video is
about!
And my BIGGEST piece of advice is to create a full series
of videos on the same topic. If your videos are about
disobedient dogs, then keep them all on that topic! This
will allow you to give multiple exposure to your affiliate
product.
So to conclude, video and affiliate programs are the way to
go for 2008. If you want to make extra money working from
home, then this is it!
