In November 1994 Geffen Records and CDNow came to an agreement that allowed Geffen Records to place links on their website directed at the CDNow website. Instead of these links directing to the CDNow homepage they would link to the appropriate artist’s page that included any CDs that artist had for sale. In April of 1996, EPage released an affiliate program to the public enabling them to work on a similar structure.</span></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style=""> </span></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style=""> Amazon Associates was released later that year in July 1996. While Amazon wasn’t the first it certainly helped put affiliate marketing on the map and to this day the Amazon Associates affiliate program remains one of the most popular in the world. Many other companies have followed suit and offered their own affiliate programs. For those companies too small to introduce their own program, affiliate groups and other third party organizations have been established making the process easier and quicker.</span></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style=""> </span></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style=""> Many foresaw the death of affiliate marketing with the introduction of Google Adsense pay-per-click advertising campaigns and while affiliate plans have seen a lull they are far from being dead in the water.</span></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style=""> </span></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style=""> <b>General Affiliate Success</b></span></span><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style=""> Affiliate marketing success is all about numbers.

The traffic is either direct or indirect <br /> <br /> </div><h1 style="text-align: justify;"><small><small>Direct traffic from article marketing</small></small> </h1><div style="text-align: justify;"> Most article directories encourage you to include a biobox at the end of your article. In the biobox you usually have some sort of signature which can include a link to your website. If your article is interesting and informative and fires the readers imagination, they may click on your 'find out more at your URL' signature in your biobox<br /> <br /> </div><h1 style="text-align: justify;"><small><small>Indirect traffic from article submissions</small></small> </h1><div style="text-align: justify;"> Again it is about the biobox. Some article directories actually have the do follow attribute on the link in your biobox. This means that the link contributes to the SEO of the site it is pointing to. With more do follow backlinks to your site from relevant sites, you get a higher ranking in the search engines. Better rankings leads to more traffic.<br /> <br /> <br />Writing article in your chosen niche is not very difficult. The following is a list of tips that will help you in your article campaign<br /> <br /> </div><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Write your own articles</span>. This has several advantages</li></ul><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="margin-left: 40px; text-align: justify;"> <ul><li>Your articles will all have a certain style and feel, based on your personality, which your readers will soon become aware of and come to expect. A consistent style across all the articles published by author X gets Author X credibility</li><li>If you use someone else's article, chances are they have sold the article to other people as well resulting in duplicate content. This could hurt your ranking.</li><li>You can design your article specifically with your website in mind. This gives you the opportunity to presell your site to the readers</li><li>Researching your articles also serves as research for your niche website.<br /> </li></ul> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li>Submit your articles only to article submission sites that include your website URL on the page. Also use websites that only allow unedited use of your article. This means that when someone requests a copy of your article to use on their own site or in an email campaign, they must use the article displaying your URL. Hence promoting your website</li></ul><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li>Do not use <span style="font-weight: bold;">article generator software</span>. Google and the article submission sites are switched on to this and frown on this. Remember that Google is looking for unique content</li></ul><div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /> </div><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li> Do not submit one article to <span style="font-weight: bold;">multiple article directories</span>. I have found that this is really just a waste of your time. Once your article is published in one of the big article directories like ezinearticles, if it of reasonable quality, some other smaller directories and other webmasters will re-publish it as well. Just stick with the major directories. 3 or 4 will do suffice.</li></ul><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li>Do not use the <span style="font-weight: bold;">same keyword or phrase</span> in all your articles to link back to your site. Google will see this as spam and it could hurt your ranking. We are referring to the link to your website in the biobox. Vary it a little so that you don't end up with a thousand backlinks all using the same anchor text. could get your site penalized or even banned with Google<br /> </li></ul><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li>Aim to submit a <span style="font-weight: bold;">couple of articles a week</span>. It really matters how many articles you ave in circulation if you want to make this work. The major article marketers actually advice submitting a few articles a day. The problem with that s the ability to generate good content for so many articles. A couple a week over the course of a year will definitely result in a significant increase in the traffic to your site<br /> </li></ul><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li>Make sure that your articles are <span style="font-weight: bold;">genuinely informative</span> and well writing. Remember there is a direct traffic component to article marketing. If your articles suck, no-one is going to click on your link.<br /> </li></ul><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li>Construct your article like you would a webpage with regards to <span style="font-weight: bold;">search engine optimization</span>. Use your keywords often and prominently</li></ul>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-43936266247266196292009-03-23T08:56:00.000-07:002009-03-23T08:58:13.949-07:00Promoting your affiliate marketing site using forums<div style="text-align: justify;">Online forums have been around for a long time.

If the forum has less than 1,000 members in a competitive niche then I would not be too hot on it. However there are some niches where it is not possible to find forums with a high number of members so think about your niche and how competitive it is before determining what size of forum is appropriate for your business<br /> <br /> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Quality of posts</span>: Just take a few minutes to browse the post to see what the quality of the posts are. A forum that is frequently off topic and which does not give valuable information in your chosen niche is probably not one you should waste time on<br /> <br /> <span style="font-weight: bold;">How many users are online at any one time</span>: There are forums that have a lot of registered members but have only one or two people online at any one time. This just implies that they had a good advertising campaign so people joined but little useful information so people are not coming back .<br /> <br /> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Do they allow html in their signature</span>: This means that when you submit a comment, your signature can be used to create backlinks to your website using your chosen anchor terms.<br /> </div>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-44290210595249301352009-03-17T13:41:00.001-07:002009-03-17T13:42:54.000-07:00Affiliate Link Operation<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTS8uN3AuMjL3njY657DWJUNI61s5dMdsOP_gWjdvKeR84Y7E8I01Gv5jVf5lKFRTOYJPXMITq32vwepwiiqM-flRwPVk0MQWwiZ4D9y56H03BSpNjwg3UajGEoEiGfcgMT0wsnmxC2w4/s1600-h/ag_internet_marketing_affiliate_links_operation_low_res.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 609px; height: 391px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTS8uN3AuMjL3njY657DWJUNI61s5dMdsOP_gWjdvKeR84Y7E8I01Gv5jVf5lKFRTOYJPXMITq32vwepwiiqM-flRwPVk0MQWwiZ4D9y56H03BSpNjwg3UajGEoEiGfcgMT0wsnmxC2w4/s400/ag_internet_marketing_affiliate_links_operation_low_res.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314259703708943042" border="0" /></a><span style="font-family:arial, helvetica;font-size:85%;">This figure shows the basic operation of affiliate links. This example shows that affiliate links are provided to affiliate marketing partners and these links are inserted on pages that have a common interest with the affiliate's product. When visitors to the affiliate web sites click on the affiliate link, this link provides the web address of the destination page along with an affiliate ID code. When the destination page is accessed, the affiliate ID code is stored during the visitor's session. If the visitor purchases a product, the affiliate ID is stored along with the order information.

But, here are some important tips to rank high in search engine.</span></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span id="more-213"></span><span>1. Your <span style="text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(48, 95, 158); font-weight: 400; font-style: normal;font-family:Tahoma,Arial,Sans-Serif;font-size:12;" class="IL_LINK_STYLE" >Website content</span> is a main factor in order to rank high in search engine. Make sure that your website has a number of quality content all over your site with your website target keywords in the articles. It is also importance doing a search for websites related to yours so you know what kind of article you should write. The more content you put at your website, the better the result. Most webmasters will write between two hundred and five hundred words per article, and keep in mind that the quality is more important than quantity.</span></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>2. Your website’s address can also help you rank higher in search result if it contains your keywords. Make sure you put your main keyword in the article URL, which would help your <span class="IL_SPAN"><input name="IL_MARKER" type="hidden">rankings</span>.</span></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span><span>3. The main keywords in your <span class="IL_SPAN"><input name="IL_MARKER" type="hidden">website content</span> should be display as text, instead of graphics. If it’s unavoidable, make sure you put </span><span style="text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(48, 95, 158); font-weight: 400; font-style: normal;font-family:Tahoma,Arial,Sans-Serif;font-size:12;" class="IL_LINK_STYLE" >the image</span> alt tags as it almost same as text.</span></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">4. The title of your page is very important, and making sure that you choose it wisely will make a big difference. Terms such ‘free article on safe children’s toys’, or ‘contact the children’s toy expert today’ are good to use as titles, for example – they would get you a high ranking. The title area is the most important place to include your keyword phrases, so make sure that you put them all in.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">5. The navigation menu that appears on each page of your website should include your page’s title.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>6. Don’t just use the most popular keyword phrases – <span style="text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(48, 95, 158); font-weight: 400; font-style: normal;font-family:Tahoma,Arial,Sans-Serif;font-size:12;" class="IL_LINK_STYLE" >the market</span> is so competitive that you should be sure to include some niche keywords too.</span></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">7. Make sure that you don’t have a lot of irrelevant links on your site. The more closely related to your site your links are, the better your chances of being ranked in a higher position.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">8. You need to periodically update the content of your website, even if it’s only a slight change, as websites like sites that are kept updated.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">9. You need to consider the fact most search engines don’t like automatic submissions or multiple submissions – submit once, manually.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">10. Always be on the lookout for SEO news – staying up to date and using the latest techniques will help you stay one step ahead of your competition.</p>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-87310523266016158572009-03-11T16:53:00.000-07:002009-03-11T16:58:50.703-07:00What to do after joining an Affiliate Program<p style="text-align: justify;">After joining a strong and reliable affiliate program, you need to take several steps to become successful. Without these steps it will be difficult for you to earn a reasonable amount of money every month. Usually people don’t know what to do after selecting an affiliate program and they simply fail.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Following are these necessary steps:</h3><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">First of all, set your objective. This means set the amount of money you want to earn every month through affiliate marketing. If you are doing this business as a part time business, then you will need less effort as you want to earn less. On the other hand if you are relying on this business to meet your needs, then you should be prepared for hard work, sometimes working on holidays and giving at least 8-10 hours a day.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">After that, search the affiliate programs to select a market to work. There are usually many types of markets for example, health, entertainment, sports etc.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Choose the market that is hot and suits your interests.</h3><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">While selecting a market, look at the benefits they are offering to the affiliate markets. Try to select the market that is hot and which is offering a good profit share to their affiliates.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">Before selecting a merchant to be an affiliate for, look at its history. How many affiliates does this merchant already have? What are the opinions of the affiliates with whom he is working? By answering these questions, you will know a lot about the reputation of your merchant. Avoid new merchants and join those who are strong in the market and have been in business for many years with success. It will be easier to promote the products of the merchants who are senior in the field. Customers will feel more at ease to make a purchase from a merchant that has been around for awhile.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">When you have chosen a specific market, now it is time to select a product. You will definitely want to add all of the products at the beginning, but it is advised not to do this in the start. If you choose more products in the beginning, you will not be able to focus. Your attention will be diverted to different products. So it is better to choose one product to get the best result from it. When you have started getting the sales you desire and feel comfortable, then you can add more products.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">Make your own website. Your website is meant for the business. So it must look professional. It should not be over loaded with heavy graphics and lots of flashy banners. Simple is the best. Try to use light colors. Make a nice header to show your company name and theme. The site navigation must be simple and easy. People should not have any difficulty in searching for a specific page or information. Otherwise they will not re-visit your website.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">If you don’t want to invest money in having your website designed for you, then you can get free website design templates. There are many websites on the internet that are offering free website templates. Just visit these sites and choose the template that you like. Fill the template with you own content and upload it on your server.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">Your website should have a search box on every page to search your website. This will be a great help for the visitors that want to search a specific product or information on your website.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">You can write articles and publish them in the free article directories. You can embed your affiliate links in the text of your articles. If your articles are well formatted, informative and the article directory has large traffic, then you can expect some good traffic to your affiliate links. And you know that more traffic on your affiliate links will result in more sales through your affiliate links.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Conclusion</strong></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">After joining an affiliate program, you are required to choose the right market, right merchant and right product. After that, choose the right methods to promote your products to become successful as an affiliate.</p>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-80606796310985684542009-03-09T16:10:00.000-07:002009-03-12T08:15:25.223-07:00Basic guide to google adsense<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style=""><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: rgb(102, 0, 0);">So What is adsense?</span></span></span><br /><span style=""><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></span><br /><span style=""><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span>Adsense is ad serving program run by google.

The key to maximizing your earnings is engaging your readers. Unlike traditional ads where you are paid for impressions or clicks, affiliates are only paid when/if a specific action is performed. The action might be a purchase or signing up for a newsletter, but regardless, you are not paid until you've compelled your readers to act.</p><div> </div><p style="text-align: justify;">With that in mind, here are the Top 10 Commandments for affiliate marketing success.</p><div style="text-align: justify;" class="lsItm"><h3>1. Know Your Audience</h3><p>The most successful way to use affiliate programs is to anticipate and meet the needs of your readers. Consider why they are coming to your site. What are you providing that they are looking for? Make sure the affiliate products you are promoting provide a solution to your audience's problems.</p> <p>If you are writing about sports, don't put up affiliate ads for printer toner just because everyone has a printer and those programs have a high payout. The people who are coming to read commentary or get stats for their favorite teams aren't thinking about those things when they're on your site. </p> <p>The more relevant the ads are to your readers, the more likely they will use them.</p></div><div style="text-align: justify;" class="lsItm"><h3>2. Be Trustworthy</h3><p>Readers are savvy. They know an affiliate link when they see one. If you break their trust by promoting a product you don't believe in or take advantage of their visit with too many ads, they will leave and never come back. </p> <p>It is your repeat visitors that will drive traffic. They are the ones who will give you linkbacks, spread the word, and recommend your site as the go-to place for valuable content. You need to build a relationship based on genuine content.</p> <p>If your visitors don't think you're being honest, they won't read anything else you have to say.</p></div><div style="text-align: justify;" class="lsItm"><h3>3. Be Helpful</h3><p>Think of affiliate ads as additional resources that complement your content. Give value to your content by making it helpful, useful, and informative. </p> <p>Don't put up a list of your favorite books, hoping people will click on the affiliate link, purchase the books (just because you listed them), so you can cash in on a sale. Take some time to write a detailed review, and use affiliate ads to point them in the right direction if they decide to act on your information. That's what affiliate ads are for. If you write a great review recommending a book and readers buy the book because of it, you <i>should</i> get something for that.</p> <p>But just throwing out links to products with no rhyme or reason will result in a quick exit by visitors.</p></div><div style="text-align: justify;" class="lsItm"><h3>4. Be Transparent</h3><p>Always disclose your affiliations. Your readers will appreciate your honesty, and will feel better about contributing to your earnings. If they sense that you are being less than honest about your affiliations, they are savvy enough to bypass your link and go directly to the vendor just to avoid giving you referral credit.</p><p> </p><p>Honesty and full disclosure is a necessary part to building a loyal reader base. They know they are supporting you by using your referral links. Make them happy and eager to do so.</p></div><div style="text-align: justify;" class="lsItm"><h3>5. Select Carefully</h3><p>Take the time to go through all the different options for products or services available through the programs. Put some thought into which products or services your readers may need or like. Also, change the ads around often, try different ones, and use different graphics and text to see which are the most effective.</p> <p>It may take some time before you figure out the best formula, and you may also find that you need to continually rotate ads to attract more attention.</p></div><div style="text-align: justify;" class="lsItm"><h3>6. Try Different Programs</h3><p>If one particular program doesn't seem to be working for you, try another one.</p> <p><a href="http://onlinebusiness.about.com/od/onlinebusinessglossary/g/affiliate-net.htm"></a> Affiliate Programs don't look the same. They offer different products, services, and payment structures. Some programs will have a lifetime payout on sales while others will limit it to 30-90 days. Some programs allow much more flexibility in the types of ad units available, as well as colors and design so it fits better on your site's layout. </p> <p>Also, check your favorite vendors to see if they run their own affiliate program. Sometimes you can go directly to the source. You're not limited to big Affiliate Networks.<a href="http://onlinebusiness.about.com/od/affiliatemarketing/tp/online-advertising-networks.htm"><br /></a></p> <p>Integrate Systematic Ad Testing into your strategy to maximize your profits.</p></div><div style="text-align: justify;" class="lsItm"><h3>7. Write Timeless Content</h3><p>Your old content can still be valuable even though it's no longer on your front page. Take advantage of the long term opportunities by making sure you provide timeless content.</p> <p>If visitors come across your older content first, and find that it offers dated information, they will leave right away. Of course, information moves forward, so relevant content changes quickly. You can make your content timeless simply by adding links to your updated articles on your old ones.</p> <p>Many platforms allow you to show "most recent" or "most popular" or "related articles" on every page, so no matter how old the article is, it will always show access to your new ones. Your old content can make money for you indefinitely.</p></div><div style="text-align: justify;" class="lsItm"><h3>8. Be Patient</h3><p>Affiliate revenue grows and builds up with time. Remember that some programs offer lifetime payouts. If you refer a visitor, you may continue to make money from that one visitor even if he doesn't come back to your site. Also, as long as you have referral links still active in your old posts, they may still payout for you.</p> <p>Affiliate programs aren't a get rich quick plan, but it provides opportunity to make passive income in the future.</p></div><div style="text-align: justify;" class="lsItm"><h3>9. Stay Relevant</h3><p>Keep up to date on the latest offerings of your affiliate programs. New ad units, advertisers, and tools are constantly being added to improve usability and be more visually appealing. Small changes go a long way in motivating action by readers. You may be left out in the dust by being complacent with your strategy.</p> <p>Don't get lazy about monitoring trends and exploring new opportunities.</p></div><div style="text-align: justify;" class="lsItm"><h3>10. Content Comes First</h3><p>Above all else, your content must be your highest priority.</p> <p>Your content is your foundation, the life blood on which the site exists. Without valuable and helpful content, readers won't come. Focus on providing excellent content, and the monetizing strategies will work out.</p> <p>Once you start compromising your content to cater to the affiliate programs or any other money making venture, you will lose your readers. Once that happens, you will lose the opportunity to receive any earnings from any of your ads, be they CPM, CPC or referral based.</p></div>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-32525218962006289012009-03-03T09:44:00.000-08:002009-03-03T09:47:26.288-08:00Tips to Improve Traffic to your Site<div style="text-align: justify;">You have done the basic. You have your website, a good brand, and products that can be comfortable selling. Now you need to increase visit to your website to increase your commission. You have tried some of the things that are suggested but that is not yet enough.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Try these:</span><br /><br />1. Try to join marketers that have a high rating. Joining marketers that ranks high relevancy rate on search engines lumps you into similar category. This is similar to the category management that is being exercised in shopping centers where buyers visit a particular section where they can have their purchases.<br /><br />2. <span style="font-weight: bold;"> Generate articles</span>. Search engines love articles that are stuffed with information. If you can not have articles by other means, write it yourself. Make your articles unbiased. If it is perceived to that your articles hidden ploys to sell your products, customers will be drawn to it.<br /><br />3. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Create and e-book</span>. E-books should have advertisement links to your affiliate web site. Submit the e-book to directories. Your e-books should have the subjects that your customer will be drawn enough to down load them.<br /><br />4. Join other affiliate programs and have them advertised in the directory format of your site. Advertise the free affiliate program directory.<br /><br />5. Even when your merchant have banner design suggestions that are standards in the offerings that he makes for his affiliates, find out if you can deviate from this and have banner design of your own. You have to stand out from the crowd of advertisers that are in the net, squaring it off for the same target market that you have.<br /><br />6. If you can offer free online services and utilities from your web, it could help drive traffic to your site. Use that to advertise other affiliate links that you have so that browsers can click on them.<br />7. Personal testimonial ads can also be a powerful tool that you can use. But the product and use it yourself. From that you will know on first hand information the actual results and benefits the product gives. A personal testimony when delivered with sincere conviction is a very good persuader.<br /><br />8. Use attention-grabbing headlines. Headlines are extremely important to draw your customer to the body of your ad. You have to grab their attention enough to draw them to your main message. A short burst of meaningful power packed words can do the trick. You can also use sentence fragments that tell what you want to communicate to the customer in the shortest possible terms. Headlines must be used to get attention enough to prevent your customer from clicking that mouse to another site.<br /><br />9. Swap links with other marketers that are promoting products that serves a similar market category that you are promoting to. You are a pre-seller. The job is to pre sell through advertisement and referral. The more you multiply your frequency, the better chance you get at getting ahead of the hundreds of thousands of marketing affiliates that are in competition for the attention of their respective target markets.<br /><br />10. Participate in forums. Get into web discussions. You already know the<br />most common question that customers ask. Create a FAQ section in your WebPages.<br /><br />11. Create e-zine and advertise the affiliate programs that you are also into. Use e-mails to advantage.<br /><br />These are some of the many ways to improve your site and traffic.</div>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-72377081085132952882009-03-02T07:37:00.000-08:002009-03-02T07:49:15.857-08:00Finding an Affiliate Program<div style="text-align: justify;">There are Affiliate programs for almost any topic that you can imagine. You just need to find them. Sometimes the vendors go through a broker such as Commission Junction or Clickbank and other times the individual vendor will host the program. There are cons and pluses to each approach.<br /><br />The easiest way to find affiliate programs for your chosen topic is to search one of the Affiliate Marketing Program's databases. This will give you a lot of different vendors to work with at the click of a search button. This is the pro, but there is also a con, because the brokerage firms take a commission from the vendor this usually cuts into the commission paid to the webmaster.<br /><br />The ones that are hosted by the vendor usually pay a little better since the vendor does not have this extra overhead. These take a little more time to locate, but they are normally worth the effort. One of the best ways to find this is just by using your search engine of choice. Search for the main topics you are building a site around and either look for a menu item named Affiliates or you can even search each site for affiliate programs the site may offer. It is not always easy to find the link on these sites, so make sure you look carefully.<br /><br />The best strategy is to use a combination of these two methods to find the affiliate programs you want to participate in. If chosen correctly these programs can help earn a substantial amount of income for your websites.</div>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-60926454368519989682009-02-27T07:32:00.000-08:002009-02-27T07:33:51.147-08:00Complications of affiliate marketing<div style="overflow: auto; width: 97%;"> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Affiliate marketing business is growing like wild fire. It has crossed political boundaries and tied people in a thread. In the World Wide Web there is no boundary. Once in you can reach anywhere and buy anything. It has become a billion dollar business. The search engines have come into limelight only because of affiliate marketing. The websites, which can find top place in leading search engines, are best suited for affiliate marketing. There is a wild race among webmasters to reach at the top. They use various methods such as search engine optimization, collecting back links and distributing press releases.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">The top position in a search engine means more traffic for the website. Traffic is a marketing term which denotes the number of person visiting a website in a day. The merchants see the persons visiting a website as their probable customers. More traffic on a site means more customers for the merchants. Displaying advertisements on high volume traffic websites give better results as the advertisements are viewed by a large number of people. But there is an issue. One cannot judge the traffic of a website. No such tool is available for the merchants to judge. They have to trust the traffic claims furnished by the webmasters.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">There is another thing, which is more important than the traffic volume. It is relevancy of a website to the product. An irrelevant website is useless for a merchant, whatever is its traffic. The relevancy of a website is judged by the content of the site. The webmaster use text to describe their website. An automobile website contains articles and blogs on automobile industry. It is best suited to display advertisements for selling engine oil, spare parts and other auto accessories. The persons visiting an auto site will be more interested in buying these products rather than buying apparels.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">The content creates much problem for webmasters. They have to refresh it regularly in order to remain at top. On the other hand they have to take care that it should be relevant with their niche. Compromising on keywords for improving relevancy means loosing search engine rank and compromising on relevancy for improving search engine rankings mean loosing the merchants. They have to learn the art of writing keywords rich content with relevancy to their niche market.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">The merchants continuously wrestle with the problem of fake commission claims and sleeping affiliates. They have to carefully watch over every click, lead and sale if they are generated from an affiliate site or not. Thank God! There are software programs to help merchants. They can use affiliate tracking software programs, which are specially designed to track affiliate sales. The merchants can create codes for in this software by signing up. They distribute these codes among their affiliates. These codes are tracked by the software. The affiliate tracking software helps merchants to work with multiple affiliates. They can peep inside the web pages to see whether the headlines are generating response or not. The merchants can also catch those affiliates, which are not working accordingly, by using an affiliate tracking software.</span></p> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Managing affiliate affairs have become a daunting task for the merchants as well as the webmasters. The affiliate networks have emerged at the right moment in the scene. Their role in online marketing is to provide a common platform to the merchants and the affiliates in this World Wide Web.</span> </div>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-47000561088376181262009-02-26T07:41:00.000-08:002009-02-26T08:09:18.166-08:00Recommended affiliate marketing books<span style="font-size:100%;">

His instruction manual shows you how he builds highly successful affiliate sites. He used to mainly use FrontPage software. These days, he concentrates mainly on teaching you how to use a web-based website builder. One particularly useful feature is his explanation of how he uses an innovative page-linking strategy to concentrate Google PageRank and send visitors to a small number of selling pages. He shows you how to do all this, with 40,000 word</span><span style="font-size:100%;">s and 107 helpful illustrations. You get 40,037 words of easy to understand text, 107 helpful illustrations and 245 pages to guide you through the EXACT process of building high-traffic websites as an affiliated publisher for some major companies. My only criticism is that he's a little brief one one aspect - researching and writing articles. I'd like to see more emphasis on building USEFUL sites rather than sites designed to be found in search engines. James has come under criticism because some of his sites have been hit badly by Google algorithm changes. He has had to modify his techniques. (One of the best ways to avoid being clobbered by search engines algorithm changes is to build high quality, genuinely useful, interesting sites, and get links from "authority" sites - ones which have lots of high quality links to THEM. The most important fact is</span><span style="font-size:100%;"> that James is still very successful, and shows you exactly how he does it.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size:100%;"><b><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);">

It is said that one can make money easily and quickly on internet. Many people try their hands in online marketing and got burnt because of their amateur attitude. Most of the people think that affiliate marketing needs no training. It is wrong. One needs to learn the art of affiliate marketing. You have to be internet savvy and should have a brief knowledge of computer applications. The person, willing to join affiliate marketing, must have in depth knowledge of search engine optimization to generate traffic. Affiliate marketing has become more technical with the passage of time than it was in its beginning.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">There are many ways to learn affiliate marketing. You can read books, e-books and join an affiliate marketing school. Reading books is though more popular among the beginners. You can find numerous affiliate marketing books written by veterans in the leading book stores. Buying e-books is easy through internet. The affiliate marketing schools are run by veterans of online marketing. The admissions to these schools are open round the year and the students can get online coaching. Although it is up to you whether to buy a book or join a school but a brief contrast can help you to choose the best one.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Affiliate marketing books</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">: The persons, who are interested in buying affiliate marketing books, can contact their city library. It is the best place to read costly books free of cost. You can also choose an affiliate marketing book for your collection after going through a host of books in the library. If you are directly going to a book store for purchasing an affiliate marketing book then don’t forget to read the preface of the book. Although the book store owner will not allow you to read some of the pages of the books but you can go through the contents and preface quickly.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Affiliate marketing e-book</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">: The internet is full of e-books. You can easily find affiliate marketing e-books by using a search engine. The online book stores allow visitors to read some of the pages of e-books before selling. You will also find more pages in an e-book than a printed book. It means that an affiliate marketing e-book contains more information. It is also easy to keep an e-book for much longer period than a printed book.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Readers generally face a problem with books. You will too find books as a one way conversation. Readers cannot ask questions to book or e-book. Moreover some of the books are filled with useless words just to increase pages. So be careful while buying a book. Reading reviews on books is the best method to select a book.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Affiliate marketing school</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">: A school is a temple of education. In affiliate marketing school you will be trained by the veterans of the industry. Students can also get complementary books on affiliate marketing from a school. You can ask question to tutors, which is not possible while reading a book. </span></p> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">It will be better if someone attends an affiliate marketing school besides reading some good books. The veterans share their experiences of affiliate marketing in a school. You can read their experiences in their books too but a classroom gives you an opportunity to interact with veterans. The actual test of your knowledge will happen when you will start affiliate marketing. At the end you will find that experience is the best teacher.</span> </div>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-27660058229887702082009-02-24T08:52:00.000-08:002009-02-24T08:56:34.270-08:00Flow Cart of Online Marketing<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj92I9M8trfP7o0rhYF_s_99TZa4xupv2k_0rqdP3O6p_3ezHH38Wm1ocWOaitadXnyq281ng3by-A35MOI-NSbswUZzVSWdhZ6Zrx5V5wbt8gMKzM6f7QdXHUlpYGpwttxpFv2oRWw-7E/s1600-h/Online+marketing.gif"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 535px; height: 420px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj92I9M8trfP7o0rhYF_s_99TZa4xupv2k_0rqdP3O6p_3ezHH38Wm1ocWOaitadXnyq281ng3by-A35MOI-NSbswUZzVSWdhZ6Zrx5V5wbt8gMKzM6f7QdXHUlpYGpwttxpFv2oRWw-7E/s400/Online+marketing.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306408215510640082" border="0" /></a>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-25369749456829865862009-02-23T07:27:00.000-08:002009-02-23T07:31:38.809-08:00Tracking the code<div style="overflow: auto; width: 97%;"> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style=";font-family:Verdana;font-size:11;" >The merchants can easily display and sell products through affiliate marketing. Just find a website relevant to your product. Talk to the webmaster. Enter into an agreement and start selling product. But it is not so easy to keep a close eye on your affiliate without some assistance. Actually there is some technicality involved in affiliate marketing. You know everything is done on internet. No showroom, no sales team only sale. It is not possible without technical innovation. Your affiliates can make fake claims for commission if you don’t keep a close eye on them. Moreover it is quite impossible to work with several affiliates at a time for a merchant without some assistance.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style=";font-family:Verdana;font-size:11;" >Necessity is the mother of invention. A software program is invented to help merchants. It is called affiliate tracking software. It helps in bringing transparency in affiliate marketing. Now no more fake claims for clicks, leads and sales. Earlier the merchants use to cross check the commission claims furnished by the affiliates. It causes unnecessary delay in releasing commissions. The affiliate tracking software helped the merchants in deciding distributing commissions. It tells them clearly which affiliate is entitled for commission.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style=";font-family:Verdana;font-size:11;" >Using affiliate tracking software program</span></strong></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style=";font-family:Verdana;font-size:11;" >This software program is designed to allow the users to create codes by signing up.

The software program itself takes care of the rest of the task. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style=";font-family:Verdana;font-size:11;" >The affiliate tracking software program keeps an eye over codes. It follows the codes and provides you vital information regarding the affiliate. The merchants can get details about the working of their affiliates. It will tell them which of the affiliate web site is generating clicks, leads and sales for them. The affiliate tracking program allows merchants to peep inside various web pages to judge which one are getting better response. They can delete those web pages which are not in use. This software program is also capable of tracking advertisements. The merchants can come to know which of the headlines are getting clicks with the use of this software program. They can easily change the headlines with the suitable one if the headlines are not working according to their expectations.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style=";font-family:Verdana;font-size:11;" >The affiliate networks have extracted major benefits from affiliate tracking software.

It is said that there are millions of websites available on internet and billions of people visit these websites regularly. You can find numerous people scattered over different websites at a given time. It is good news for the merchants. They can use web pages of various websites for promoting their products. Moreover, online advertising is much cheaper than offline advertising. The merchants can also change their advertisements on a regular basis or whenever they feel it mandatory. All they need is to search for a relevant and high traffic web site.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">In this information technology age websites have taken place of paper. Now almost everything is written and compiled in the form of web pages. You can read newspapers online. The government designs websites for informing people about their prospective programs. Corporate houses have their own websites for communication. The universities use online method for admission, examination and teaching. It is easy to declare results on a website rather than using notice board. The number of people visiting a website is termed as traffic on that particular website. There are high traffic as well as low traffic websites available on internet.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">The merchants display their advertisements on those websites, which are relevant to their products. The relevancy of a product to a website is decided by the content of site. The text matter on a website is called its content. It tells about the website. For example selling school books is easy on education related websites. The person visiting a school site will be interested in buying school books. The next thing, which merchants look on a site, is the traffic. Only high volume traffic websites are suitable for affiliate marketing.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">The webmasters or publishers are called affiliates in the affiliate marketing terminology. It you wish to become an affiliate for earning some extra dollars then you must take care of the following things.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">First of all you need to choose a niche. Search the internet to see the hottest product selling in the market. You can also go with the niche you like most.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">The second step is to design a website. It must be attractive enough to hold the visitor for a longer time. You should take the help of a professional to design website rather than trying yourself.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Submit your website to search engines such as google, msn and yahoo. Remember submitting websites to many search engines is much beneficial than submitting to only leading one.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">The final step is to bring traffic to your website. You need to do some good search engine optimization work for generating traffic. It is the most difficult task for a webmaster. To rank high on search engines is the dream of every webmaster.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Now your website is ready for affiliate marketing. But still there is a problem. How will you search the rich merchants, who can pay the price on displaying advertisements on your high traffic website? The merchants also face this problem. Actually it is a daunting task for merchants as well as the webmasters to search for each other. You can use several methods such as participating in forums, advertising through blogs, writing articles and joining an affiliate marketing network.</span></p> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">There a number of affiliate networks available on internet. You can join one of them either free of cost or by paying one time membership fees.</span> </div>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-90444676975374074462009-02-18T08:25:00.000-08:002009-02-18T08:28:50.136-08:00Tips of great affiliate marketing - For MerchantsChoose a topic you know. The most common question asked by people new to affiliate marketing is "What should I start with?" We believe it is best to start with an area you know well. Doing this may not be the best converting, provide you with the highest commission, or even be the best managed program. But it is easy for you to build a site, and it's a subject you know and are interested in. That means you can add your own personal touch and opinions to the site. If you try to build your first site from something in which you have no personal interest, the site soon becomes a painful and boring task. Stick with what you know initially and then grow from there.<br /><br />Banners, Banners, and More Banners. If success at affiliate marketing could be achieved from throwing up pages of banners - then the world would have many more millionaires. A site with pages of banners or rows banners stuffed under content, not only doesn't make a person want to click the banner; it also has the added bonus of making your site look pretty ugly.<br /><br />There is no Best Merchant Program. Some people can succeed with a merchant where many others have failed. It is often true that some do poorly where others are making a fist full of dollars. Forums are full of posts that begin with, "My Sales this month for Merchant Program X are very poor." These same posts usually end with some one else posting, "Funny my sales are great." Remember that for your first site select a merchant based on what you know. In the early days, when you have just one small site, it will be easy to swap out all the links if the chosen merchant doesn't work out.<br /><br />Use multiple merchants in the same niche. As suggested, select a merchant based on what you like, or better yet select a few. Promoting 3-4 merchants on the same site gives your site visitors a variety of destinations to choose from. Doing this provides you with data on what your visitors want to see, and can provide you with important information on how well the different merchants perform against each other when put head to head.<br /><br />There is no Best Network. Another question commonly asked is, "What is the best network?" Everyone has their own reply to this question, and ultimately there is no best answer. This is especially true when you consider that many great programs don't even belong to a network at all. Every network has its strong points. Make your network selection based on the tools it provides for you. Also take into consideration if the network has the merchants you want to work with. Sometimes joining an undesirable Network is necessary because they have a merchant you really want to sign up with. Our recommendation is to try a merchant from all the main networks, see what works for you, and then focus your time accordingly.<br /><br />What are Content Sites. If you visit affiliate marketing forums you'll hear people talk about "content sites." These are sites that provide potentially educational and topical content about the products they are promoting, or appear to promote products as a side focus. Content sites are easier to build when you know about the products you are promoting, or the merchant makes content available to you. However, don't forget the goal of your site is to make your site visitors click off of your site onto a merchant's store. No click-through means no sale.<br /><br />What are Data (Product Info) Sites. Data driven sites are generally limited to pure product data, prices, images, descriptions, there's no illusion of education here. It's all about promoting the product and making the visitor get off your site as fast as possible and onto the merchant's store. Data driven sites generally require access to data feeds and some knowledge of programming or access to software (or scripts) which can produce web pages from the data feeds.<br /><br />Parasites and how they affect you. You will see a lot of sites that talk about "Parasites", "ParasiteWare" and "ScumWare." All of these are applications that can redirect, overwrite, or intercept your visitors (and therefore YOUR commission) and change your visitor into their visitor. The majority of these masquerade as shopping support software, file sharing applications, browser help objects (BHOs), and even hidden applications installed on a user's PC via drive-by installs or in bundled software packages. To learn more, and there is an awful lot to learn, please visit <a href="http://www.parasiteware.com/" target="_blank">www.parasiteware.com</a>. Most ParasiteWare also has various traits of SpyWare. Also click here to learn how you can help consumers protect themselves and your affiliate marketing revenue<br /><br />Building your first Site. It does help to know HTML and the ability to use graphics software. Knowledge of these areas gives you the ability to add small touches of class to your site. However don't be discouraged if you have no skills in these areas. It is not always necessary to be skilful as there are a number of tools and merchants around that can help you get your first site up and launched. These include page generation tools and fast launch sites. These tools are great for getting rolling but always remember to do some customization of anything you get automated to ensure it is uniqueness to you. Search engines and directories will remove duplicate content.<br /><br />Buying a domain name. Geocities and Homestead undeniably have their place in the Internet world; however, registering a domain with them generally is not a very wise decision. Many search engines and directories won't list such sites because of their transient nature. In addition to the pitfall of not showing up in search engines, some affiliate managers will skip over your site as they deem it to be a "Personal home page." It is best to get a top level domain (TLD) name and some cheap, but reliable, hosting. When considering a domain name, first think about what you are going to promote and then base your domain name on it. Don't buy the domain name first and then later think about what you'll promote on the site.<br /><br />Work at it. While it is the ultimate aim of every affiliate partner not to have to do any work, the reality is, especially early on, there's a lot of work to be done. Whether it's in the site's design, updates, education or reading stats, there is a lot to do. The pay-offs aren't instant and it can take a fair few months before you're even making enough to even cover your costs. It takes perseverance, dedication and patience to succeed, don't quit if your first attempts don't pay off.<br /><br />Educate yourself. Education is an immensely important part of affiliate marketing. There is a heck of a lot to learn. Educating yourself on basic principles of HTML, programming, data feed manipulation, creating custom links, or learn how to identify a good niche in a way that others have overlooked. The affiliate forums are certainly one of the best places to start this education. Invest in and read affiliate marketing books by affiliates such as James Martell<br /><br />The next step. Once you have that first site up and it's making money, then it's time to start to expand. Using what you have learned by building that first site, move on to a new project. Leave the first site to keep making money, making adjustments, and any needed updates, but generally letting it do its thing. Your next site is likely to be a site in an area you've seen other affiliates having lots of success. It makes sense to follow the money, but remember it can be a crowded market place when everyone is after the same thing. Don't overlook small niche products, items that might not get the huge traffic but should convert well due to limited availability or being in a special interest group. These markets can often be far less crowded and easier to make quick sales on compared to the bigger more crowded programs.Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-56462170029889166912009-02-17T07:43:00.000-08:002009-02-18T12:12:17.331-08:00Affiliate Manager Job Openings<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"><span style="font-size:180%;">1.

The merchants started giving some dollars to those persons, who help them in selling their goods. This was the start of affiliate marketing. Information technology has helped affiliate marketing to reach a zenith. Today merchants as well as the customers get benefited by online marketing. Online shopping has made it easy to buy goods such as television, refrigerators mobile phone handsets, apparels, books etc. for the people. You need not to tread from one showroom to another for buying goods of your choice. Everything is available at a click of your mouse.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">The merchants need websites relevant to their products for selling goods online. They display their advertisements on those websites. There are innumerable websites available on internet and it is a daunting task for merchants to find out relevant websites. They also have to look that the website must have high volume of traffic. Low traffic websites are a waste of money for merchants as there will be very few people on site to watch the advertisement. On the other hand webmasters too search for rich merchants. They too want to earn some extra dollars by displaying advertisements on their websites. In marketing terminology a webmaster is called as an affiliate.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">The merchants and the webmasters use various methods for searching Mr. Right. They participate actively in affiliate forums, give advertisements in classifieds, distribute press releases etc. The merchants also need a program for sharing revenue with the affiliates. They chalk out affiliate marketing programs according to their products. There are three top paying affiliate programs available for affiliates.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Cost-per-Click (CPC)</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">: Every time a visitor clicks on the displayed advertisement, the affiliate gets commission. The visitor may click deliberately or accidentally but the affiliate is authorized to claim commission.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Cost-per-Lead (CPL)</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">: It is an advance program, which is best suited for banks and other financial institutions. The visitor of a site leaves his or her contact details by clicking on the advertisement. The merchants provide a lead generating form to be filled by the visitor. Every time a form is filled, the affiliate claims commission.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Cost-per-Sale (CPS)</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">: The affiliates stake commission only when a sale is furnished by the merchants according to CPS program.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">The tools required for running affiliate marketing are provided by the merchants. They provide banners, flyers, e-mailers, lead generating forms etc. The merchants also keep a close watch over affiliates so that they cannot make fake claims. The affiliates too keep records of the clicks, leads and sales generated through their sites.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Although merchants can do all this exercise with the help of affiliates but it is wise to join an affiliate marketing network. There are a number of networks available on internet. Some of them offer free membership while others charge one time membership fees. A network works assists the merchants as well as the affiliates. It provides tools for affiliate marketing and chalks out affiliate programs too. It keeps records of clicks, leads and sales. The merchants also distribute commission through the network. </span></p> <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">An affiliate marketing network provides a platform for successfully running online marketing programs. It plays the role of a big Daddy in affiliate marketing. Although merchants and the affiliate are at liberty whether to join a network or not but it is always beneficial to join.</span> </div>Ajith Kumar Hhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11033606523827848042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827430655724492275.post-69711913882360123372009-02-13T14:04:00.000-08:002009-02-13T14:05:58.186-08:00Affiliate programs guide for the beginners<div style="overflow: auto; width: 97%;"> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">It is difficult to tell when the first affiliate marketing program was started. The revenue sharing agreement between merchants and the affiliates must have emerged as the first affiliate program. The affiliates are concerned about their commission and the merchants take care that their single penny does not go wasted. An affiliate marketing program contains the rules for displaying advertisement and credentials for earning commission. There are three popular affiliate marketing programs Cost-per-Click (CPC), Cost-per-Lead (CPL) and Cost-per-Sale (CPS). We will discuss the benefits of each program for a merchant and affiliates one by one. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: georgia;font-size:130%;" ><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Cost-per-Click (CPC)</span></strong></span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">: Cost-per-Click program is best suited for those advertisements, who are satisfied with the clicks on their advertisements. The merchants give commission to affiliates on the number of clicks. Every time a visitor clicks on the advertisement the affiliate is entitled to furnish commission claim. CPC program has a loop hole. The merchant never comes to know whether a visitor has deliberately clicked on the advertisement or not. If the advertisement has received clicks accidentally then they are of no use to the merchant but the affiliate is entitled to furnish claims.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">Cost-per-Lead (CPL)</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;">: Cost-per-Lead affiliate program generates leads for the merchants and commission for the affiliates. A lead means contact details of a visitor. The merchants use several ways to get leads out of advertisements displayed on the affiliate sites. The most popular method used in CPL program is free news letter. The visitors of an affiliate site click on the advertisement and give their contact details for receiving a free news letter. Some merchants publish lead generating forms along with their advertisements.
