Getting more traffic by either becoming an affiliate or setting up and affiliate program can be that one thing that will take your business to the next level. In fact in the last 12 months affiate sales have made up about 50% of all my sales. So it just goes to show you just how powerful this really is.

Out of all the things that worked for me I will share with you 5 powerul secrets that increased my affiliates profits by 200%.

Master the following secrets of affiliate marketing and you are well on your way to join the league of super affiliates.

1. Use Video.

This is becoming more popular and you will find your average sales rates go up when you do use video properly.

2. Use Article Marketing

Article marketing is a powerful workhorse in affiliate marketing and is one of the deadliest secret of affiliate marketing used by top affiliates. This is one form of content publishing which can be used to establish yourself as an authority figure. Brand yourself as an expert and you will have loyal customers. Not only so, your articles will drive targeted traffic from the search engines and indirectly from other related websites that post your article.

3. Target Specific Niche For Marketing

Super affiliates use niche marketing. They target specific market niches rather than going for broad markets. It is easier for you to publish content that gets high ranking in the search engines for tight niches than broader markets as it can be overwhelmingly competitive with big established sites taking top spots in the search engines. We all understand that ranking well means more targeted traffic which then translates to sales. Once again, do a search around for tools to help you find profitable niches.

4. Create Presell Pages

Never send your prospect directly to the affiliate sales page. That is a big mistake made by newbie affiliates and even some veterans. Presell your prospect first with a review website or even some testimonials from past customers. The whole idea is to warm your prospect up, and get him or her excited before sending to the affiliate sales page. This would dramatically improve the chances of a conversion to sales. It is important therefore to find good affiliate programs with solid content and sales copy that you can modify for your presell pages.

5. Follow Up With Your Prospect

Did you know that traffic is valuable? While most affiliates would agree that driving traffic is a never-ending task and can be quite challenging even for experienced affiliates, many do not optimize their traffic. Many focus on bringing in fresh traffic but fail to capture them for follow up.

Now, it is more likely that someone would buy your affiliate product after being exposed for several times than just seeing it once. Most people do not buy on the first encounter but given enough time to warm them up to the benefits, the potential for them to convert into customers is much higher! Also, once they have bought from you, you can continue to make repeated sales from these customers. For that, an autoresponder can do a great job in sending a series of email messages.

So I just invested in The Google Assassin  from Chris X the dude behind other successful systems like Affiliate Project X and Day Job Killer, which I have also used with some good success.

After he tested The Google Assassin system extensivly it was ready for the public. Although I was happy with my other purchases, I just scrolled straight down and purchased this. Nothing worse than a sales letter Google Assassin and other that go on about screenshots and fake numbers. Most of them are fake but not the Google Assassin… He was playing with real numbers here and I knew I had done the right thing. No Buyers remorse, now to my review    

 One thing I did notice is that this is a membership unlike his first two products, so for the $67 investment I expected to get some good tools and advice.

The Google Assassin membership system has been divided into three parts:

Affiliates Den is the where you find all your tools located.

Initially there are four products you can download on your computer, and these tools helps gather the good profitable keywords for the market you are going to be dealing with.

The first one are The Google Assassin Daddy Keyword Extractor which claims to be the best keyword search tool available:

It give you all the stats about they keywords too, which is a tremendous help.

Then there is the The Google Assassin Adwords Micro Nicher which really is an amazing tool to use. What this will do is look for other sites that target your keywords and includes the adsense blocks in high performance positions.

The extra software was The Google Assassin Article spotter and Campaigner.

Article spotter was a tool that allows you to search Ezinearticles and Google for relevant articles based on the keywords you use, it will print out a report of how many their are and what rank and traffic it is probably already getting.

This is a huge time saver if you want to look for other articles competing against your niche or your website.

The Campaigner is a geniuos tool that finds profitable campaigns and shows exactly how they are running their ads, how much they are spending. This copycat approach really works and this would have to be the more powerful google assassin tools by far.

This collection of downloadable software products is second to none, and really gives you the edge you need to succeed.

Google assassin is really good in explaining how to keep track of your campaigns, keywords and statistics. As long as you stick with clickbank though.

Affiliates Den is divided into three main parts, I give a short but informative description on them and what I think about them:

The watch list keep track of products you want to keep a closer look on in the nearest future. Campaign Management:Maybe one of the most useful parts of the Affiliates Den is the Campaign Management. You can create two different types of campaigns, links and websites.

Here you can set up campaigns and keep track of them, Nothing special here either, you can set up a campaign with tracking links, find some keywords and create the ad, the keyword search tool is pretty good, find how many advertisers and competition there is. You can also use the overture search tool and find other keyword suggestions.

The Google ad creator is a great little helper that will make you pop out new ads in a couple seconds, you will get a list of the top performing ads and others that are not performing as well, but you have all the information in front of you, so it is just to start stealing…

The website creator consists of the same steps as the link manager, but here you don’t get so many sites to chose from since all the programs you can chose get picked by the guys behind The Google Assassin, so far only a few product are in the portfolio.

It is a little website creator included here as an extra feature.

It has its limitations, and is actually crap seen from my point of view, you are able to edit some parts of the text, but if you know just a tiny bit of how to set up a webpage, you would stay away from this.

So that it is…. Is it really worth the price you pay??

My conclusion:

The Google Assassin is a solid investment i think for its membership. To make a lot of money online you have to spend a lot of money and many hours glued to your set. But with these tools, I can guarentee that it will cut your work rate by 60%. They cut down your running around cost too. As a place to start, this is not too advanced for the newbie, that means the is no confusion and panic when things go against you.

I think there should be some more simpler video presentation to help along with some of the steps.

I am still heavily testing all the tools in the google assassin system, and I am so far impressed with their results.

If you are ready to start earning big money from affiliate marketing then I whole hearted recommend this to you  The Google Assassin Gets my tick of approval and gets a 9 out of 10

Everyone knows that the money is in the list. You have probably heard it a thousand times, if you have attended any decent seminar. The things is that this is totally true. The money is really in the list if you do it right.

But before you build a list you must have the right tool. An optin page will do the trick. I have seen some very poor attempts at creating optin pages, and then people come back to me and wonder exactly why they are only adding one or two people to their list each week.

Here are some excellent tips for creating the perfect optin page. These little tips and tricks will ensure you are getting the highest conversions possible. One one of my sites I have increased my optin rate by 217%….not too bad I might add. Ok here is a list of tricks, to help you design a better optin system.

1)  Catchy Headline* The first thing that I looked at was the headline. Remember 80% of people will read your headline and decide to opt in. You have a crap headline and expect a 0 sign up rate. Create an emotionally driven headline that creates curiosity in your prospect and your sign up rate will double overnight.

2) Optin Box* Make sure this is above the first fold in your page. Make it stand out and use a dull color…not like a bright yellow or pink. I have seen how bad those ones convert. Make it neat and test that it shows up in both IE and firefox…and you will have an instant winner.

3) Why Should they subscribe* When designing your optin, keep asking , why should they subscribe….what are they getting. Would you subscribe to your sign up page if you saw what is on offer. Normally a free report works well.

4) Test, Test, Test* Anyone that doesn’t test an optin page has rocks in their head. You will be amazed at how you can dramatically increase your results by adding a word or two. Or even leaving out a few sentences. You have to find out what your prospects like more.

These tips should give you a head start. Remember show your friends and test, test, test…it will guarentee you are getting the most from your traffic and more sign up to add to your list. Hope this helps.

 Today I wanted to touch briefly on how important it is to get targeted traffic to your site.

WHY??…..

If you are not getting traffic from most likely places  your prospects are hanging out expect to FAIL. YES!

You can use PPC to do this, although it is get very pricey. There are other ways to get laser targeted traffic to your website without breaking the bank. That is : forums, articles, directories, seo, social bookmarking. They are all important for the internet marketer.

But Social bookmarking seems to be one of the best ways at the moment because :-

-  Its Free: Now this is the most valid reason for using social book marking services. They are available to use free of charge.

- There is no limit to the number of websites or web pages marked, regardless of whether it is articles or reviews or other content. The kind of websites that can be book marked will be laid out in the terms of the service.

- You have the choice of having a private or a public social book marking service account. For private accounts, only you will see the bookmarks. For public accounts, everyone can see your bookmarks including your targeted website traffic, bringing them to your site.

If you are the author of a blog like this one, every time you add something to a page, forum or email, include the blog link and your website link. That way each time a visitor finds your content interesting they will make reference to you or digg your content continuously. There are also other social networking sites popping up all over the place, so if there are other sites these type of users are visiting you link will most probably be showing up there also. It’s like they are driving traffic to your site for you and you owe them nothing. Very nice indeed.

1) you must notice that a search engine can do lots for you. Just by having a top search engine ranking you could build highly popular links, get hits to your site instantly so it should not be ignored. If you are a master at using the right keywords you will attain this very high popularity very quickly. Once your website is at the top of any search list, it is easily accessible for anyone search for you terms. That can mean from 10 people a day to 10 or 50,000.

2) You can also contact webmasters and link up together in partnership. Your first task is to try and find websites that are similar to yours but not in direct competition. Once there, make contact by phone or email and try to work out a deal where by you will both get traffic. After you have done this agree to terms and carry through.

3) The third best way you can do this is through articles. It’s a very effective way to create  interest and to get people visiting the website. You should be using ezinearticles.com and goarticles.com

4) Another powerful way to get masses of traffic is with people with big lists. The best way is through joint venture marketing. If you want a powerhouse of sales and more traffic Joint Venturing is the way to go these days. You can get them to become a super affilaite or just get them to plug your product to their bigger list (if you are lacking in that area) and watch the sales flood in.

5) Affiliate programs are one of the best traffic sources as well. Having affiliates go out and hunt traffic for you is the best way to bring tons of traffic to a website. The only thing you have to do is give a portion of the sale to them….but it cost you nothing and no extra time to do this….very worth your while. I am surprised that this tactic is overlooked by many astute marketers out there.

6) Use forums in your niche and hunt them down. Help people out and then show them your product. Chances are if then like you and you help them out enough so they trust you….they will purchase your products, there is no if’s or but’s about it.

7) Know your market. If you have a small market with hardly any potential prospect, how do you expect to get lots of traffic. Know your market and how many people are looking for you info and then go out and hang out where they normally hang on. Put your message in front of them and BANG….you will see sales and money filling your bank account.

Traffic is the key to the internet. Thats what keeps it alive. Funny thing is that traffic is what will keep you sales and business alive too. Without it you wont get far at all. Targeted traffic is fairly easy to find if you look in the right spot and you have a good product. It’s time to take this traffic thing head on so that you can make more money.

Cheers

p.s. for the most amazing up to date strategies to help you increase you website traffic fast visit http://www.trafficsecretsreport.com  TODAY

If you have been wondering which web 2.0 tactic to use over the last 12 months….I think that youtube.com takes the cake.

Why? well within minutes, if you are creative enough you can create a video that can go from 0 views to 1 million views in a day…if its good that is. I have got some great results from posting youtube vids but I will let you in on 3 secrets that will ensure you succeed before you go posting them all around youtube.

1) Make Them Funny! - People on the internet love a laugh. They love to be entertained. There is no doubt about it. It lightens up their day. A funny video has a high probability of being sent to friends and probably has the highest probabilty of creating a viral effect.

2) Be Inspiring! - Inspirations stories are always good if you want to create buzz. Do this well enough and you will become extremely popular fast. Have a look at the “interview with god” website theme. Look it up on Google. This was a huge hit from a simple idea. This guy went on to make millions of dollars using a free resource. The creator created this before youtube was invented but you will see my point.

3) Be Shocking Or Use Shock Tactics! - You will find that shock tactics work well online too. Especially with video. Sometime people use this shock effect so well it gets aired on tv and will even get news coverage. How’s that for free coverages, not to mention lots of traffic to your site.

Stick to these guidlines and watch as your view, traffic and sales soar.
