Affiliate marketing is really general because there are so many affiliate marketing programs and things to promote, it can make your head spin. It’s actually a natural psychological truth that the more options you are presented with, the less likely you are able to actually make a decision.
Here’s strategy one… pick something you at least know about.
It really helps to have a good knowledge about what you are talking about. Keep in mind that this can be a business to business product and not necessarily a business to consumer product.
Most people getting started only think of a few markets when there are really a bunch you can get involved in.
So take a serious look at what you do and what you like. With a close enough look, you will find something.
Here is strategy two… Don’t promote affiliate products on your site.
You might be thinking to yourself that this is really crazy, but it can work really well. I am actually testing a few sites like this now. There is not a single affiliate product on the site and everything revolves around getting the visitors on the newsletter list.
Then once on the list, you can build a relationship and promote products. This opens up a slew of different strategies. Keep in mind that email marketing is a completely different animal.
It’s funny, you would think that it would be pretty easy, but I have found it to be much more difficult. However it can be very profitable.
Here is strategy three… Only work on three sites at a time.
This is probably more personal preference than anything, but I find that any more sites than that and it’s nearly impossible to build links.
You will drive yourself crazy building links for more than that and building enough to actually get ranked is really hard to do. I think as you begin to see success you can outsource, but that is something I don’t really know too much about yet.
Just think about this… the more projects you have going, the slower it will take to fail or succeed.
