Smart Affiliate Marketing, Think Outside the Box

 
Author: Stuart McKeown
 

When it comes to marketing Affiliate Products there are hundreds of ingenious ways to get your Affiliate Link into the public domain. Most Internet Marketers will build their own site, review sites generally do well when it comes to affiliate products, as do blogs & people that make reccomendations.

However there are places you can market your affiliate products without having to go to the trouble of designing your own website & setting up an entire product directory.

Classifieds: Believe it or not Classifieds have been very successful for me in marketing Affiliate Products. It helps you appeal to a wider audience, epsecially when selling informational type products & services.

Free Blogs: Setting up a review on a free blog site such as Blogger.com allows you the freedom of marketing a single product form a single site. This makes it easier to get incoming links from Directories who would make only link to the main page on your site. Write reviews, do comparisons, get listed in the search engines.

Signature Links in Forums: If you post in web forums putting links to products that you endorse can often lead to sales, especially if you are high regarded & well known in a particular community & the product relates to that niche.

Cloaking: Bit of an interesting subject, however cloaking is one of the most powerful ways to market affiliate products. With for example a program like Search Engine Cloaker you can create thousands of keyword rich pages for the Search Engine Spiders & when someone searches for your phrase in Google, instead of going to your site the program can be set to automatically redirect to your affiliate links. If done properly you could easily have thousands of pages in the search engines like this.

Social Bookmarking: Using Social bookmarking site to promote your product reviews, not only will this help your Search Engine Rankings but it will also drive some traffic to your site, albeit not very targetted but it's still traffic.

Ebay: Including links to appropiate Affiliate Auctions in your Ebay listings is a great way to promote your product, especially if you get an auction which has a lot of traffic.

Writing Ebooks: Embedding your links in Ebooks is one of the most successful ways of increasing Affiliate Sales. Especially if you write an ebook which attracts a lot of attention. Even many of the premium Ebooks still have sneaky affiliate links in them, as if you haven't given the authors enough money already!

As you can see, there are lots of routes to go down without even creating your own site. I found that setting up some solid sidelines like the ones described above really give you the security & diversity in your affiliate marketing campaigns. I've written ebooks & included them in packs which I sold on ebay that are still converting over 18 months later. So it really does pay to think smart.
