You’re dead wrong if you think you know anything about being an affiliate. Everything you’ve been taught is simply out of date. If you play by the old rules, you will lose this game.
The promise
Unfortunately, you’ve been led to believe affiliate marketing is easy. Well, that’s true . . . to a point It is the easiest business you can possibly start. But starting your own business is really hard, so it’s all relative.
The cold hard truth
To top it off you’ve been given false information. The first thing you’re taught is to pick some great products. Next do some keyword research. Then buy some keyword ads that send traffic to the product. And sit back and collect the profits. But it doesn’t work.
Forget keywords
This method worked a couple years ago. But the competition has shot the price of keywords through the roof. Adapt and change…
A brand new formula
There’s still hope. Follow this method and win again…
- Get into CPA marketing
- Instead of researching keywords, research demographics
- Market on display networks
Start using CPA marketing
CPA means Cost Per Action. It’s so much easier than promoting products. Because your visitor doesn’t have to buy anything. Your commission is generated when they complete an “action”. Such as filling in a form. And it’s much easier to get them to do that.
Utilize demographics data
You’re not even going to use keywords (explained below.) Invest your research time into demographics. First, select the CPA offer you want to promote. Then go to a site like Quantcast.com. And research what kinds of people will be interested.
Market on display networks
Now you have your offer and your demographics. You can advertise directly to them on display networks. And let images do the work. No keywords required. The biggest advantage is price. Keyword ads are expensive, but image ads are still cheap.
In closing
This is a great way to make money fast. Because you can start CPA marketing for free. You can buy image ad clicks for a fraction of keyword ad clicks. You can use demographics to target your ideal prospect. And getting them to take an action is much easier than making a sale.
