Affiliate Program Sales: Earn Real Money With These 4 Simple Steps and Never Spend a Nickel!
December 22nd, 2009
Promote, promote, promote! That’s what it takes to earn real money in affiliate program sales. If you are new, it is hugely important to keep your costs to a minimum. Here are four ways to promote your affiliate product without ever spending a single penny in advertising.
1. Start by writing an article.
Article writing is one the best, cheapest, most effective ways of getting the word out on your affiliate product. If you are any good at all at writing, getting published is a cinch. But here’s the key: don’t be too blatant about your product in your article!
Publish your article in the top five or six article directories. Then, rewrite your article and publish in the next ten to twenty most popular directories. The purpose of the rewrite is to prevent the search engines from clobbering you with a duplicate content penalty.
Here is a strict guideline: Do NOT talk about your product directly. Instead, give the reader good quality content about your niche. If your niche is to do with building doll houses, then give the reader a good article on how to solve (say) the top three most common problems in building doll houses.
The best article directories— the ones you should be dealing with regularly— will never allow you to do a straight affiliate program sales pitch. You need to be a little subtle about it!
You have to give; only then can you take. Your resource box may contain your website (top level domain only). You have a good chance of getting the reader’s click if you have earned it by first giving good information.
This strategy alone will help you earn real money.
But hold on— there’s more!
2. Now re-write your article as a tutorial. Educational and tutorial sites like eHow are great places to publish this sort of content. To turn your article into a tutorial, you will need to change the wording and the lay-out to give it more of a “how-to” feel. Very few article writers would ever think to take advantage of the good traffic that tutorial sites get. And… it’s FREE.
3. And now… turn your tutorial into a Powerpoint slideshow! You can submit to sites like Slideshare for nothing. Place your URL in the Powerpoint, and take advantage of another powerful source of traffic that is still… yep, FREE!
4. And now, turn your Powerpoint into a video, using Camtasia if you want to spend money, or using CamStudio if you want to do it for free.
You can make your video fresh, if you like, but since you already have the Powerpoint, why not recycle your work by simply adding a voiceover? Use your own voice if you like (it’s free, after all!), or outsource this if you think you lack dramatic flair.
If you really, really want to spend money on video, try Article Video Robot. They are a monthly paid service who turn articles into videos with music and voiceover. I have never tried them myself, so I can’t vouch for them. Why don’t you give them a shot, and then… write an article about it?!
The results of your efforts? You wrote one article, and then recycled it into three different formats!
There are plenty of other sources of free traffic. Article directories and social bookmarking sites are among the most popular, but they are only the tip of a very large iceberg.
If you are willing to put in the work of converting your article into some non-article format, there will almost certainly be some way of getting it into the public domain at no cost. Pdf.’s. .exe files and RSS feeds are all sources of traffic you can exploit. You can try these out on your own.
One last word: You can earn real money in affiliate program sales if you will commit to publishing your articles in as many formats as you can.
