So You Want To Make Money Online

There must be one thing stopping you from promoting affiliate products from popular affiliate product sites like Clickbank or any other affiliate program for that matter: you don’t have a website.

As you well know, affiliate marketing is best promoted in websites using contextual advertising. This usually means that the product must be somewhat related to your website.

However, contextual advertising will only work if the website has already established credibility and can drive in a huge amount of traffic. Obviously, that’s easier said than done, so you might as well try promoting affiliate products using other techniques. But are there any in the first place?


AFFILIATE PRODUCTS
If you don’t have a website that fits with the demands of top-selling affiliate products, you shouldn’t lose hope just yet.

Affiliate marketing can also be done in a number of ways that are just as effective when done with a website. And by effective, I mean profitable!

All it takes are three fairly easy steps…Or follow my Program, anyway here you go

Step 1: Write High-Quality Articles
After you have chosen your affiliate products of your choice, you should proceed to choosing your targeted keywords. You can do this by using keyword tools like Wordtracker. Choose the keywords that have the least competition and can drive targeted traffic.

With the best set of keywords, proceed to writing high-quality articles about the affiliate product. Now, where do the keywords come in? You basically have to sprinkle them throughout the articles with about 2 to 5% keyword density.

Be careful not to go overboard or search engines will tag your article as spammy and will therefore not come out in the search engine results.

Search engine optimization, or SEO, sounds big and complex, but it’s really just about placing the keywords right so search engines like Yahoo! and Google can crawl through your website and place it among the top searches.

Now, the articles must be informative and have value to the reader. It’s the only way they’ll read through the article! Further, it will establish your credibility as a writer and therefore create a connection that will compel your reader to buy your affiliate products.

Step 2: Submit the Articles to Article Submission Sites
With search engine optimized articles to boot, it’s now time for you to get your articles out to the public. How exactly will you do this?

You are going to submit your articles to article submission sites. Basically, these are sites that contain a repertoire of articles of different topics ranging from dating to housing options. It’s that varied! By submitting your articles to these sites, you are publishing your articles in the web free of charge and without any website!

In other words, you don’t have to worry about not having a fully managed website as these articles can stand on its own and get the traffic you need to earn a commission. Here are a list of article submission sites to get you started with:

www.ezinearticles.com
www.goarticles.com
www.articledashboard.com
www.isnare.com
www.articlecity.com
Of course, there are many other submission sites for affiliate products, but why am I mentioning these ones? These websites have a Google PageRank of at least 5, which is credible and strong enough for search engines. You want the articles of your affiliate products to appear in the best article directories, don’t you?

Ezinearticles.com remains to be one of the largest article submission sites. Its standards are quite stringent, so you have to watch out for your grammar and content.

Step 3: Drive Traffic to Your Articles
Once you see your articles published in the article directories of your choice, the next step to gaining profits from the products is getting word out not about the product but about the articles.

There are two ways to do this: sending email messages and participating in forums. You can send email blasts if you have a large contact list. Choose snippets of the articles that are interesting, slightly redo them in a more conversational tone, include links of the products, and then send it to a mass of people online.

Another way, participating in forums, is more manageable if you think your email contacts are not interested in the affiliate products you have to offer. You just have to get to the forums where issues related to your products are being discussed.

For example, if you are marketing electronic devices, you will find a plethora of forums talking about electronics and the varied opinions of people about certain electronic products. Why don’t you participate in these forums yourself and give them a piece of your mind.

You don’t have to talk in a robotic and hard sell manner; you can just simply give them a piece of your mind and tell them about the affiliate product you strongly believe in. In the Internet, honesty in tone is valued in forums more than anything else.

With these three easy steps, nothing should stop you now from marketing affiliate products. What’s even better about these steps is the absence of added costs. While a website will have to be regularly maintained and renewed for domain registration, articles will stand the test of time and will give you passive income.  10/18/2012  www.TheWebsiteBuilderPro.com

Top 10 Traffic Ideas for your Blog

 I've been blogging for a few years now under different affiliate sites I have decided to to team up with Word of Mouth Marketing San Diego. We now are taking on National clients along with local business's. So I can't tell you how important it is to Blog.

 Blogs are popular ways to create an online presence for personal and business reasons. You can build a blog for free and begin posting content right away. But, what good is that content if no one is reading it. Here are ten ideas to bring in the traffic your blog needs to survive according to The Website Builder Pro

Of all the successful blogs on the Internet, hundreds more have failed. Running a blog is like running a business website. Unless you are willing to put the time in and treat it seriously, you won’t be blogging long.

That is not to say that the failed bloggers weren’t serious about blogging. Mostly, new bloggers aren’t prepared for the work that goes into creating a successful blog. Just building the blog doesn’t mean that people will necessary come to you. You pursue the audience and give them a reason to see what you have to say, so we thought we would throw out the top ten,

1. Fresh Content – no one wants to visit a blog day after day and see the same posts. Update your blog content at least twice a week. This will be easier if you write several posts ahead of time and upload them at the appropriate times.In 2012 it's more like five times a week says The Website Builder Pro's

2. Article Marketing – the niche you’ve chosen for your blog is one that interests you. If it is interesting you will spend more time doing it. Create content not only for your blog but also to be submitted to article directories. Use the resource box to advertise your blog so people can find you.

3. Social Networking – these sites are everywhere. Join Facebook, MySpace, Squidoo, Twitter or a dozen others and make connections. You can join groups of likeminded people who are also bloggers or entrepreneurs.

4. Viral Marketing – this is where you spread the word about your blog. Talk to friends, family and even strangers. Give out business cards that have your blog address on them.

5. Use RSS Feeds – RSS stands for “Really Simple Syndication.” Readers can subscribe to your feed and get email updates when new content is posted. It is an easy way for them to keep up with your blog without spending all day online.

6. Submit Blog to Search Engines – doing this allows your blog to be ranked. Google and Yahoo! are two of the most popular search engines you want to crawl your blog pages. It doesn’t guarantee top ranking, though. You’ll have to do a little more work for that.

7. Joining Forums – as a blogger you are a budding entrepreneur. Right now you are marketing yourself to find traffic and then profit. Become a member of business forums, work at home forums and others to meet new people and share ideas. You can add a link to your blog in the signature line so others can find you.

8. Visit other blogs – show your appreciation to those who visit you by also posting comments on their blogs. It is a kindness that shows others you are not just out to advertise your blog alone. Add links to your blog in your comments.

9. SEO Marketing –Like the training over at The Website Builder Pro knows whatever you write, use relevant keywords. Keyword density between three and ten percent is good for getting higher page rankings in search engines. Craig Seaton at The Website Builder Pro says to base your keywords on a research you do to find the most popular words used in search engines for your niche.

10. Social Bookmarking – submitting posts to social bookmarking sites allows others who are members of those sites to track you back to your blog.Great training at The Website Builder Pro for only $19.00 you will become an expert in SEO

Using any of these ideas will start the traffic moving in your direction. It takes time but you will build the readership you want.I highly suggest clicking on The Website Builder Pro and get the Training for website building with XSitePro and SEO expert training.

Key #1  Make your website interactive. 
As the internet continues to grow and evolve it’s becoming more important to create a community around your business. To accomplish this you want to engage your visitors and customers.  This can be accomplished a number of ways.  You can:
* Provide a forum
* Post surveys or polls
* Enable visitors and customers to review or rank items.  For example a “How valuable was this article?” question and a scale of 1 to 5 stars or a ranking from 1-10. 
* Offer a blog and inspire comments and feedback
* Host contests and sweepstakes
* Publish video and audio content as well as written content.  This gives users another way to access you and your personality.

Key #2  Make sure your website provides value. 
People go online for a number of reasons.  They go online to research a potential purchase, to seek solutions for a problem they’re having and to be entertained.  If your website provides all three; products, information, and entertainment then you’re in tip top shape.  The good news is your content can provide both the information and the entertainment and when written well, can also inspire purchases.  Here are a few ideas to provide value for your customers and prospect
* How to articles, videos, and audio
* Tips articles, videos, and audio
* Case studies
* Workbooks and reports                           
* Interviews with experts
* Product reviews

Key #3  Make sure your website is easy to navigate. 
It takes a visitor about 20 seconds to make a decision about whether they’re going to stay on your website or click away. If your site is laid out nicely, with products and services, information, prices, FAQs, and content easy to find then people are more likely to hang out – the longer they stay on your site the more likely they are to make a purchase or to return again.
To make your site easy to navigate consider:
* Keeping your site simple. 
* Keep your pages uniform with the same options and appearance. 
* If you have a lot of content, great!  Use drop down menus and organize your content by topic for easier access. 
* Offer a search function where users can search for products, services, or content topics quickly and easily.
* Provide a way for users to easily go back to previous pages.  A back key is an option however if every page has the same options and drop down menus, including the ability to quickly return to the home page, a visitor will always be able to find what they need.
* Test your website’s appearance on different browsers to make sure every visitor has a good experience.

Key #4  Make your website easy on the eyes. 
Ever visit a website and the text was so small or the colors so incompatible that you couldn’t read a word?  Readability is critical to a selling website.  Make sure:
* Your colors are easy on the eyes,
* Your graphics aren’t distracting
* And keep formatting like underlining, bold and italics to a minimum.
* Spacing between sentences and paragraphs is adequate
* Font size is large enough for people to read and font is easy to read

Key #5  Give them a soft sell. 
People expect to be sold to and they’re looking for it – they’re wary.  Instead of hitting website visitors with a hard sell, provide information, solve their problems and show them the benefits of your products or services.  They’ll be much more receptive and appreciative.  

Creating a website that sells requires a structured approach and a desire to create the best experience possible for your visitors.  Once you’ve created your website, consider testing it and asking associates, friends and family for their opinion.
