Affiliate Marketing for the Complete Beginner
Have you been wanting to get involved in Internet Marketing
as an Affiliate but just didn’t know where to begin? Well
read on and I will take you by the hand and show you how to
get started. But first let me give you a little background
on what it means to be an Affiliate Marketer. Becoming an
Affiliate Marketer basically means you are a salesman for
other peoples products just like a salesperson in a store or
a Avon distributor, the only difference is you are not
meeting people face to face but are selling other peoples
products online.
So now that you know what an Affiliate Marketer is let me
tell you how to get started.
The first thing you want to do is sign up to be an
Affiliate. The most popular companies at this time are
Commission Junction and Clickbank. Now there are small
differences in the two companies, Commission Junction has
merchants that sell hard products where Clickbank is more
along the line of digital products, like E-Books and
Software. They both are totally Free to signup with.
So your first decision will be what type of product do you
want to try an promote. I would recommend starting off with
a product in a field that you are somewhat familiar with.
Now to get started on promoting a product you can go about
it 2 different ways. The first way I want to discuss is if
you have a no money to get started and want to go the free
route. Don’t fret because most of you will be in this
category.
No Money to get Started
After you have signed up with Commission Junction or
Clickbank or both for that matter, choose a product to
promote. Again I would choose something that I am familiar
with or have some type of interest in. If you are starting
out with Clickbank then usually there is no approval
process, you simply type your username in the space provided
and your affiliate link will be generated for you, for the
product you have decided to promote.
Now that you have your affiliate link, you can start
promoting it, and if someone clicks on it and buys the
product you make money. Different Merchants will offer you
different percentage commissions. Most common is 50-75%, so
if you send someone through your link to a site that sells a
product for $97.00 you are going to get 50-75% of that minus
the clickbank or commission junction fees which are not
much. Sounds easy enough? The concept is beyond easy,
promoting the products can be tricky. To make the process
easy I will cover some different ways to do that with no
money to start.
1. Write reviews – Write a review of the product that you
are promoting and submit your review to Free article
directories. Have I lost you? It is best to write an honest
review, you want to build your character as being honest and
giving fair treatment, if the product is good then write
about what you liked about it, and if it was bad or had some
things or features you didn’t like then write that too.
People will catch on quick if you only write good things and
praise all of the products that you review and will figure
out your just trying to make a commission. Now you are
probably wondering how can you review a product that you
have never tried. Well now that you are a member of for
example Clickbank and you want to review a product that
costs $30.00. Buy that product using your affiliate link and
it will cost you $15.00 and then you can give a review of
it. Is this cheating? I don’t think so, because the merchant
is still receiving the same amount of money whether you sent
someone to his site through your affiliate link and
purchased it or if you purchased it yourself. If you have no
money at all to purchase a product to review, then try and
send an email to the merchant explaining that you are an
affiliate marketer and that you would like to request a Free
copy of their product to review, and that you plan on
generating a lot of business for him and provide a detailed
plan of how you are going to do just that. You will be
amazed at how many complimentary copies you will get. Once
you review the product and write an article about it, post
it at the Free article directories and include your
affiliate link in the article. Most of the article
directories will not allow you to put affiliate links in the
articles themselves, but will allow you to put it in your
author bio. Some article directories that do allow affiliate
links are Go Articles, Article Alley and Search Warp.
2. Become members at some of the marketing Forums and put
your affiliate links in your signature. Then every-time you
make a post in the forums, your short little add with your
affiliate link will appear beneath your name. You can also
put your affiliate link in your signature through whatever
email program you are using. Then every email you send out
will have your add and affiliate link in it.
If you have a little money to invest in your new Affiliate
Marketing business, I suggest you get your own website. Now
there will need to be some thought put in to this before you
take this step. Choose a product that you are very
interested in, because you are going to build a website
around that product. Find out the companies rules as an
affiliate, for instance some don’t allow their name in your
domain name, so do your homework. Then you will choose your
domain name, such as www.widgets.com. Domain names cost
about 10.00 a year for your own www. name. Then a hosting
company charges anywhere from $7.95 – $12.95 per month to
host the domain name and give you the space to put your site
on. If you know something about HTML then you will be able
to build your own site. There are also many software
packages out there that makes this an easy step such as
Microsoft Frontpage, or Adobe Dreamweaver. Once you get your
site up with your affiliate link all over it, start
promoting your site. Now you will not have to worry about
the article directories that do not allow affiliate links
because now you will send them to your website that has your
affiliate link, which most don’t mind.
So this is the beginner steps on how you can get started as
an Affiliate Marketer and start carving yourself out a
living on the Internet. Internet commerce is breaking new
records every year and continues to grow. Don’t miss out on
your piece of the pie. Get started as an affiliate and start
making that extra spending cash to help pay off some bills,
pay the rent or if your really good at it quit your job.

One Simple Marketing Tactic = Lots of Free One-way Links!
It all starts with a simple story. A few days ago, I came across Seth Godin’s new e-book, “Everybody’s An Expert” (it’s free, and you can download it from here). It’s about a new way of finding information on the web – through recommendations and peer reviews. At 32 pages, it’s a quick read. Through the e-book, Seth promotes his new project, Squidoo (don’t worry, this is going somewhere).
To quote from the Squidoo blog: “We’ve built a platform that makes it easy for anyone, even a newbie, to teach people about topics they care about. We believe that everyone is an expert about something, and the Squidoo.com platform is designed to make it easy to do that.” Fairly interesting – and the best part about this is, it’s a fresh and extremely useful way of raising your website’s search engine rankings. While we wait for Squidoo to come out of beta (it was launched on Oct 17, but is limited to beta users only), there’s an important lesson in all this. The marketing. Seth has, perhaps better than anyone else, perfected the art of viral marketing – in essence, how to spread information / news about a product or service through referrals and word-of-mouth publicity. Despite a strange name (viral isn’t immediately a friendly term), viral marketing has proved remarkably successful in drumming up news coverage and publicity for newly launched products and services.
For Squidoo, Seth used a relatively simple but powerful publicity technique known as buzz marketing. Essentially, it is a viral marketing tactic that creates instant value for the product by restricting access to only a few “selected” people in the target audience. By deliberately choosing “targets” who can easily influence their peers (say journalists, industry leaders, experts, business owners, etc.), buzz marketing creates a word-of-mouth campaign where consumers (flattered to be included in the elite group of those “in the know”) willingly spread the word to their friends and colleagues. Remember last year, when GMail was launched? It was an invite-only offering, and that instantly created a natural “buzz” about it on the Internet. People were talking about it in chat rooms, on blogs, on their websites, everywhere. GMail invites even went for sale on EBay! Back to Squidoo. The e-book promoting Squidoo (”Everyone’s an Expert“) was posted on Seth’s blog on Oct 7. Today, almost two weeks later, I took a quick look around the blogosphere to check its popularity:
* Did a quick search on Technorati (leading search engine for blogs) and found 249 posts talking about Squidoo already.
* In the top 10 for searches done at Technorati in the past day (we’re talking tens of thousands of searches here).
* Checked the track backs (people linking to Seth’s post promoting the launch) – 46 so far.
Think about it. Within two weeks, this launch has already been covered by over 250 blogs, each with a readership of its own. Within two weeks, this launch has already been read about by tens of thousands of people, most of them content publishers / business owners who are looking to reach the largest possible number of readers. By now you’re probably thinking: “But Seth is a well-respected, well-read marketer. He’s already published so many books. It’s easy for him to build this kind of a buzz this quickly.” In other words: “How the heck does this help me?”
Buzz Marketing and SEO
What happened when websites and blogs started talking about Squidoo? Within a week, the site received 249 new links – all one-way, in original, user-generated content. Not even ONE reciprocal link exchange. This is organic marketing at its best. Instead of getting 500+ reciprocal, low-value links, you get 200+ very valuable, very powerful one-way links. Looking at this in another way, think about the niche Squidoo is competing in. Content publishing. They’re going up against powerhouses like Blogger, Typepad, WordPress, MSN Spaces (to name just a few). In addition, because this will be an information-rich resource, they’re also up against Wikipedia, About.com and other content giants. A heavy-hitting market to jump headfirst in. And how are they building their search engine rankings? Entirely through organic marketing.
Now I’m not saying that everyone should do that. Seth’s a big name in marketing, and for the rest of us, building organic, one-way links is a long-term process that involves meticulous content building. So don’t give up your reciprocal link campaigns just yet. For most websites, buzz marketing is not enough to create massive search engine rankings, and you’ll still need the rest of your marketing strategy (content-building, link exchanges, article submissions, etc) in full flow. But if you’re looking for one-way links – links that bring you added link popularity AND targeted traffic – then give buzz marketing a serious try.
The Internet is a powerful social medium. It allows people to offer opinions and recommendations on different topics almost instantly. Buzz marketing is about harnessing this power and using it to promote your own product or service. It’s crazy how quickly news can spread across the web by word-of-mouth – or in this case, through websites, blogs, emails and IMs (instant messengers). Squidoo is just one example – in the past few months, several new product launches have been promoted just through word-of-mouth advertising – consumers creating a “buzz” by recommending the product to their friends, reviewing the service on their blogs, creating affiliate pages on their websites – in short, word-of-mouth advertising works, and it works well.
But exactly how does it work? Here are the necessary ingredients:
- Identify Your Target Audience
If you maintain a niche business such as knitting, you might think it’s impossible to create a “buzz” about your new service or product on the Internet. You’d be wrong. Any topic / niche that has a market (otherwise why would you be in business to begin with?) is a prime candidate for your buzz marketing campaign. Figure out who your target audience is (people looking for information on knitting – patterns, equipment, technique (you can tell knitting isn’t my strong suit)) and brainstorm on how you can tailor your campaign to capture their interest. In addition, you’ll also want to look at the “authority” websites in the niche – the leading blogs and websites in your industry. These can be used as launchers for your word-of-mouth campaign – once the big names review / take part in your new product launch or service, you are guaranteed exposure in that niche.
- Give Something Away For Free
This could be a free e-book (like Seth did with Squidoo) for everyone who visits your website or a product / service offering to a select few (an invite-based online membership to your special knitting club – ok, so maybe that might not work in such a small niche, but you get the idea). The core idea here is to give something valuable to your readers for free – a report, a membership, limited access to an online service or a demo version of your latest software. Make sure that the freebie is of value (in terms of information or usefulness) to your consumers, and just as important, structure that freebie to promote your actual offer – a book launch, product launch, or a service launch.
- Give Them Bait
In your marketing campaign and in your freebie, give enough information to generate interest in the subject, but don’t give them everything. If you are promoting a book, you’d give them a free copy of the first chapter, a bonus report about the same topic as the book but NOT the actual book itself. In the same way, if you were promoting a new online service, you might want provide minimum “marketing” information, and then let users find out for themselves (either through the “invite-only” strategy or just by allowing a limited number of people to sign up at the beginning). Leave enough gaps in your message so that the early users can fill them in for you. This may sound counter-intuitive, but it’s pure gold. People on the “outside” – everyone without access to the information – will be looking to the people on the “inside” – people with access – for more details. And people love to talk, especially when they know they have select knowledge on the subject. This is key to creating the “buzz” – interested users discussing and describing your offer on their own websites, giving you instant credibility, link popularity, traffic AND best of all – they’re doing the marketing for you.
- Easy To Share
Google hit gold with their marketing strategy for GMail – allow a select group of people initial access to the service, and then make it “invite-based”. Suddenly, the value of a GMail account skyrocketed, and everyone clamored to get one. A critical component of the GMail marketing strategy was the ease with which you or I could send “invites” to other people – just enter their email address and poof, an email is sent. If you want your buzz marketing campaign to be effective, make sure that your freebie is easy to share – whether it’s an e-book (or a link to it), an invite-only service or even audio clips from your next seminar.
Whether you follow the advice in this lesson or not, remember that buzz marketing is just a tool – it’s not a complete marketing strategy, and it should never be taken as such. For any online business, a marketing strategy involves a lot of different tools (content-building, SEO, PPC advertising, etc) and buzz marketing is just one of these tools. If you use buzz marketing for your website, make sure you’re not abandoning your marketing strategy.

Reviews for the Best Firefox Extensions
Firefox is an Internet browser that has gained a lot of ground in the past few years. Traditionally, the browser space is owned by none other than Microsoft’s Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer is bundled with Microsoft’s operating systems, and whenever you buy a personal desktop or laptop that is loaded with Windows, you will find Internet Explorer already bundled with your system. That means with minimal hassle, you will be able to launch the browser and surf the Internet.
With such a convenient browser installed in the system, one might ask why would anyone bother to download a third party Internet browser? The answer lies in the different ways that both browsers are developed.
Microsoft’s Internet Explorer is the market leader. One would expect that being the market leader, Internet Explorer would be the best browser in the market. For a time, it was indeed at the top. However, remember that this browser was given birth by a commercial company, which is profit driven. As the Internet continues to evolve at break neck speeds, so does the needs of Internet users. Soon, more and more feature requests are being put up by users.
The problem is, although Microsoft takes user feedback very seriously, they are slow in responding to the users’ needs and wants. Being a large corporation obviously slows response time, and even then, it is difficult to please everyone.
To fill this gap, third party developers have started a new browser – Firefox. Firefox is fast gaining popularity because of the numerous add-ons put up by various third party developers. The add-ons are what make the Firefox browser so attractive, powered by a very active community. Users are constantly giving feedback based on their usage experience and preferences, and third party developers are responding very quickly to their requests and interests with solutions.
As more and more add-ons have become available, Firefox is now the most personalized browser on the market. You can choose to install any type of add-ons you want.
For example, a technology site recently came up with a review of some of the best Firefox add-ons. These add-ons include popup blockers, automatic form fillers, calculation tools, and other useful extensions. Not only does this provides a more personalized experience, the add-ons also provide much greater convenience for users.
Community driven software and applications are often driven by interest groups. The more active the interest groups, the more add-ons will be developed. You can observe this interesting phenomenon in the Internet marketing community.
Internet marketers can now make use a variety of add-ons to help them with their marketing efforts. They can download SEO (search engine optimization) tools, web directory submission tools, keyword research add-ons, and more – all for the sake of bringing more traffic to their websites.
Without Firefox, all that will not be possible. Therefore, despite Internet Explorer’s recent strong efforts to improve it’s browser, many Firefox users have chosen to remain loyal to their current browser. Obviously, they wouldn’t know what to do without those useful add-ons!
