Infobarrel and Its Benefit To Affiliate Marketers

November 29, 2011 By 8 Comments

Are you an affiliate marketer who is tired of not making any money? Roughly 97% of all affiliate marketers make less than $100 per month and the reason they do is because they are not using the tools provided to them.

What am I talking about?

I am talking about Hubpages, Squidoo, WordPress, Youtube and Infobarrel. Being that most people have heard of the first 4, I am going to focus on Infobarrel and how it benefits affiliate marketers. Before I get into more detail about how you can make money quickly and easily with Infobarrel, I first want to tell you a little bit about it.

Benefits Of Infobarrel

• Infobarrel is an up and coming website, similar to Hubpages that allows you to get paid for the Adsense ad impressions as well as any affiliate sales you make. The best part about Infobarrel is that you make 75% of all Adsense ad impressions rather than 50% like most other revenue sharing sites offer.
• Not only do you have the opportunity to make money directly from the page, you can also provide an affiliate link in the content as well. With Infobarrel they give you up to 2 in content links along 3 other side links. The benefit of this is that you can simply point your Infobarrel traffic to one of your websites, affiliate’s or simply another one of your Infobarrel articles.
• If you want to make money, then using a trusted website is how this can be done. Infobarrel is a website that has been around for a little while and is getting a lot of praise for their expert authors and their valuable community. Having this behind you as an affiliate marketer is very important and that is why I highly recommend you use Infobarrel for any article marketing needs.

Now that you know a little about Infobarrel, I want to show you a couple tricks to make more money as an affiliate marketer. The first thing that you need to do is very simple, you have to sign up for infobarrel and start writing.

What do I write about?

Write about what you know – many people have heard this, yet most people totally ignore it altogether. Something that you need to understand is that if you don’t have a grasp on what you are writing, then it will be almost impossible for the reader to feel a connection and actually buy whatever it is that you recommend. Not only that, it will be much easier for you to write about something that you know as opposed to doing research and then writing an article.

Once you have a topic that you want to write about, you need to do keyword research. If you don’t know how important keyword research is, then you should first learn that because affiliate marketing is much simpler with that skill set. I am not saying that you won’t make money without knowing anything about keyword research, but if you ask anybody in the industry they will tell you that with proper keyword research you will be able to work less and make more.

So as you can see, Infobarrel is a great place to turn to as an affiliate marketer but you have to start writing. The trick to making money is very simple, write a great article based on a low competition keyword, add a couple affiliate links and then repeat the process.

If you need any more help I am here to help, just add a comment below and I will do the best that I can to get you on your way.

Is an Online Degree in Internet Marketing Right for You?

October 15, 2011 By 5 Comments

Is an Online Degree in Internet Marketing Right for You?

Internet marketing—there’s no doubt that it’s a booming industry.  As companies (both large and small) continue to rely on online campaigns to capture the interest of consumers using the internet to purchase products and or services, the need for internet marketers will just continue to grow. Maybe that’s why so many individuals are now interested in pursuing e-marketing careers. Not to mention that aside from stability, the pay is pretty decent as well; you can earn as much as a $40,000 starting salary.

The recent spike in interest however is creating fierce job competition in this area. While a formal education will most certainly help an individual land a job in this competitive field—according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics employers favor bachelor and master degree holders— some are not able to attend college due to certain obligations. For example, they may already have fulltime jobs or have a family to take care of.  One plausible idea that provides flexibility however is pursuing an online internet marketing degree. To learn more about this option, continue reading below.

How does an Online Internet Marketing Degree Differ with a Traditional One?

Essentially the only thing that differs is the method of learning—you still have a professor, engage with classmates, have tests and need to purchase text books to successfully complete assignments. But you “attend” classes on your own time and communicate via emails, chat rooms and video chat. In a way, online classes are more designed for those who can work independently. So if this isn’t your style-of learning, you might not want to consider this option. Cost is about the same too. But since students don’t need to drive to campus and can conserve gas and don’t have to spend money on added expenses like housing and meal plans, it can save you a bundle.

What Will I Learn? That said, those pursuing an online degree in internet marketing will learn all of the same concepts that a traditional degree seeker will learn. Thus, you can expect to take courses that will teach you how to effectively use marketing strategies and techniques to create marketing campaigns for a variety of clients. While specific class titles will vary depending on the program you choose to enroll in, online students can expect to take fundamental business classes along with courses in the following subjects: statistics, public relations, computer languages, Web design, e-commerce, search engine optimization, social media and affiliate marketing just to name a few.

How Long will it Take to Complete a Program? Just like when pursuing a traditional bachelor’s degree, an online internet marketing degree program should take a fulltime student about four years to complete. While there are in fact some accelerated programs available, they are far and in between. That said, it’s important that you don’t get duped by a fraudulent online school that promises an accelerated bachelor’s degree in a year or so. These institutions just want to steal your money. When researching schools and programs, it’s important that you check to make sure that it is either nationally or regionally accredited—this is the only way to ensure that you are enrolling in a legitimate online program or school. There are various ways to check for a school’s accreditation. The first is to use the Department of Education’s Database. Note that the Department of Education does not officially give accreditation, so not every school may be on the list. But a sure-fire way to test an online school’s legitimacy is to see if it offers Federal financial aid. Only legitimate schools are allowed to do this.

What Can I Do with an Online Internet Marketing Degree? Those that earn an accredited online internet marketing degree can do so much. While some opportunities are based on degree level earned and previous experience, some job titles to consider are the following: SEO specialist, Web content developer, marketing manager, search analyst and media director.

Chasing Online Traffic And No Down Line to Show For It

September 1, 2011 By 2 Comments

Chasing Online Traffic And No Down Line to Show For It

As a network marketer who wants to build an online presence to grow your business, are you chasing traffic with no results, no matter what you have tried?

Buying another on line prospecting system or webinar or another ebook  about some social media attraction trick, and then adapting it to your network marketing business, with no results, did you expect this?

So far, is it any easier or more effective than simply building your business with traditional, offline, MLM marketing techniques? It doesn’t seem that the promise of online marketing matches the hype!

Results in network marketing, no matter how you market, means a strong and active down line that provides an ample income for you and your family. It also means that your down line has successfully incorporated the marketing practices that they learned from you and that they are building thriving businesses of their own.

And, there lies the difference between our business and affiliate marketing or other online businesses. Network marketing requires a different approach to building traffic because it requires building a sense of trust and confidence in ourselves as leaders that other online businesses don’t need.

Keep in mind that our business builds for the long term, that we must teach before we earn the extraordinary incomes that can be had in our business, that we only need a few to enjoy those levels of income. And, that can’t be forced, but must be nurtured one recruit at a time.

An online network marketing recruiting site does not need first page rankings on search engines. Stop and think about that for a moment, then read that sentence again. You do not need first page search engine rankings. You only need enough traffic to build your first level of down line business builders. Then, you must teach them to duplicate your work. And, so on.

Affiliate marketers and other online marketers need high rankings because they have very little, to no, opportunities for repeat business, so they must constantly churn traffic with offers on tens, even hundreds, of squeeze page sites to build contact lists. Then, they market more products to their list, and share them with others to earn their incomes, a few dollars at a time.

This pressure to drive traffic to web sites, this absolute requirement to have first page search engine rankings is what has caused an explosion of offerings of software and “secrets” to bring in more sales, and it is not necessary with an honest, ethical network marketing business.

Yes, traffic is what will bring business builders, but you must build your site to attract the right kind of visitors. And, just as importantly, you must tell them whether they are the right kind of visitor for you!

You must describe the kind of visitor and recruit you want, and you must tell them what kind of leader that you are. That builds the credibility that compels visitors to take the next step, whatever that is for your business.

So, stop chasing traffic and start building a site that brings the kind of entrepreneur that you want to teach. Relax and find other sites that have the kind of visitor you are looking for, and learn from what they are doing.

Use the basic, and safe, SEO methods to build your site for the long term. When you get results, build on them. When you find compatible sites to yours, link to them. When your down line business builders go online, have them link to your site.

So, to stop chasing online traffic that brings no results, figure out what kind of leader you are and show yourself to the online community by using all of the basic tools at your disposal. Your site will be rewarded with visitors who have responded to your leadership and will be eager to learn from  you.

And, finally, keep in mind that a good network marketing business only needs a very small number of active business builders who are eager to have what you have!

Is Affiliate Marketing or Network Marketing Right For You? – Part II

August 4, 2011 By 25 Comments

Network Marketing

Now, lets take a look at network marketing and its differences from affiliate marketing. Network marketing is in its infancy online. Most network, or multilevel, marketers build their businesses offline through personal contacts or offline advertising like classified ads and local flyers, even flee markets and local athletic events such as marathons and high school sports.

 

So, the opportunity to get in front of other network marketers who are just now starting the move to online businesses is high. This does not mean an easy or a necessarily quick path to a good income for you, but it has the potential for less sophisticated competition in your market niche than you will find in affiliate marketing.

 

Next, the ability to earn a generous income in network marketing comes from attracting and recruiting business builders and less from pure product sales. The highest incomes in network marketing comes from leaders who took full advantage of the compensation plans that reward finding, recruiting, training and supporting others who want a good life from the high recurring incomes that are possible in this business.

 

That’s not to say that product sales are not important as you build your business, they are. Product sales are the only source of income in legitimate network marketing companies. Keep that in mind as you select which one you will use to build your business.

 

Product sales serve as an additional recruiting tool for building your network marketing business as your customers form bonds with the products from having good experiences and getting comments from friends and family as they lose weight, look healthier from skin care, feel healthier from wellness products, etc..

This is more true with consumable products such as health and wellness, skin care and green household products than with service offerings such as telephone, internet and legal services, but nonetheless product users are a source of business builder prospects that is not available in most affiliate marketing offerings as there is less opportunity to build a recurring user base.

 

There are many network marketing companies offering many different products and services. Like the research necessary in finding the right affiliate products, you will also need to do your homework here. Unfortunately, the compensation plans of network marketing can be very complex and, seemingly, impossible to understand, so you must be very attentive to this aspect of choosing which company to represent.

 

From a marketing perspective, established network marketing companies will have product material and business recruiting material for you to use as a base for web site copy, blogs and articles, this is not usually the case with most affiliate marketing products.

 

In a successful online network marketing business, hundreds of mini sites are not necessary. A recruiting site, or a few at most, product sites and effective whitehat traffic generation techniques are sufficient to provide a large and recurring income for you to have the time to enjoy your life.

 

The site architecture is also different between the two systems. Effective affiliate sites can be simple direct selling sites with an eye catching headline, compelling copy, testimonials and many calls to action spread throughout the site, along with a prominently positioned product satisfaction guarantee.

 

The architecture of an effective network marketing site is as much a relationship and trust building vehicle as it is a selling site. The need for a deep level of trust in these sites is higher because the perceived consequences of the commitment are higher. Training a new business builder takes time and trust must be established before a prospective business builder will make the financial and emotional commitment to the business leader and the business itself.

Summary

Both affiliate marketing and network marketing can provide large and stable incomes for the people willing to do what is necessary for success. While the differences are less stark than the similarities, each appeals to a different kind of entrepreneur. One, affiliate marketing, draws raw individualists who have no fear of failure and hard work to create the hundreds even thousands of sites to provide them with the independence they crave.

 

The other, network marketing, appeals to entrepreneurs who want independence and a generous income, but who prefer a more cooperative effort with like minded people and the long lasting professional and personal relationships that are integral to having success in this field. Which one is right for you?

Is Affiliate Marketing or Network Marketing Right For You?

July 31, 2011 By 18 Comments

Part I

There are many similarities between affiliate marketing and network, or multilevel marketing. Both benefit from online traffic generation techniques and both have many different products and services available for you to use to build your business. Most importantly, both can provide a handsome income for you.

 

But, how to choose between them? Some people go with Network Marketing, others go with afilliate… only you can answer what works for you, but here are some of the most important differences that may help you to decide.

 

Part I discusses affiliate marketing and Part II, to be published in a few days, discusses network marketing

Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is the selling of products online and getting a commission on each sale. In some cases, you can develop affiliates under you where you also get a smaller commission on their sales, but primarily, you will make money only from your own efforts.

 

To be successful in this field, you must first find products or software that are worth selling, not only in terms of search volumes but also commission payments. The first requires research into what people are searching for online and which products will satisfy them. Typical sure fire fields with large search volumes are:

  • how to make money online
  • weight loss
  • relationship advice
  • health advice

The advantages selling into of a large market are offset by the difficulties of breaking through the existing competition for the relevant keywords that the searchers use to find what they want.

 

Many sophisticated affiliate marketers have discovered how to break large markets into smaller, more targeted niche markets where the number of searches in any given day are smaller but the chances of attracting a motivated searcher is higher. Niche markets can also be low search volume markets but enjoy a dedicated following, such as:

  • dog training
  • green products
  • self defense training
  • golf lessons

These true niche markets are very real opportunities to enjoy large commissions from low search volumes because these searchers want a solution to their particular concerns. These are not casual searches, they want help, they have money to spend with you, if you have the headline to attract their attention, the copy to prove that your offering satisfies their issue and the ability to deliver the product quickly.

 

So, after you have identified a market, or niche, how do you find products to sell? The two most popular are Commission Junction and Clickbank.  Other product sources exist on Amazon, eBay and dedicated distributors who will stock and drop ship their products on your behalf. Some will even offer payment services through their company and pay your commissions. Many CJ and Clickbank products will have a re-direct site to their PayPal account but some may expect your site to have a shopping cart service to accept payment from your customers. All ebook and most software products and online courses offer instant access to the products purchased by your customer after payment confirmation has been received from PayPal.

 

Looking at and analyzing commissions payments as you research products should be part of your selection process. After all, the point of this is to build a generous income for yourself, so pick the best product with the best commission program, even if there are better products available but with lower payouts to you.

 

Now, you are ready to buy a URL or several, based on the keyword research you did for finding your market and product. In general, you want to buy the long tail keyword as the URL as these sites will be recognized, sooner, by the major search engines as having the best match to the keywords entered by the searcher.

 

Once your site is built, you need to be noticed, and that means you need to drive traffic to your site. There are many, many, strategies to get results ranging from free traffic building with articles, blogs, videos, giveaway offers to paid strategies like Adwords and ezine advertising.

 

Finally, to earn a very large and stable income from affiliate marketing, you will need to build many sites with different products, with each site getting a few visitors each day and earning a small commission each day. This requires that you will continually research market search numbers and find products to fill those niches and have an adequate commission payout for you.

 

Most successful affiliate marketers have hundreds of mini sites that, combined, provide a large monthly income.

 

To escape that constant work of finding the next product to sell, you may wish to design your own products or software to offer to other affiliate marketers. This can provide a large and long lasting income base, if you create a great product, a generous commission plan and a large list of affiliate marketers who will act as super-affiliates and use their large email lists to promote them.

 

Summary of Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing offers you a large number of online products and physical products to market and sell. While the competition for keywords in the best markets is high, the imaginative marketer can either create differentiation for themselves in a large volume market or find profitable niche markets to exploit.

 

As an affiliate marketer, you are on your own in creating copy, web site, blogs, videos and other material to bring qualified traffic to your sites, and, you may have to build hundreds or even thousands of sites to truly have an ample recurring revenue stream. Or, you can create your own online products and develop relationships with existing, successful super affiliates who will market your products to their large email lists.

Recruiting Affiliates for Your Info Product Sales

July 27, 2011 By 11 Comments

Recruiting affiliate marketers

Many marketers promote their product but never think about how they’re excluding the promotion of their affiliate program. If you have a product to promote, then you want to show others how they can make money online by becoming your affiliate.

For example – let’s say you’ve written an eBook on building a greenhouse. Don’t simply set up promotions for the actual course about greenhouses. Instead, you want to start an affiliate page or site that teaches people how to make money promoting products like yours.

Some newer marketers ask why they’d want to pay an affiliate 50% commission when they could make the sale themselves and keep 100% of the money. But the problem is, you wouldn’t be pulling in all of those customers that affiliates can bring to your site – so not only won’t you get 100% of the sale, but you won’t even get the 50% without affiliates.

To recruit the best affiliates you want to advertise your product in affiliate marketplaces such as ClickBank and PayDotCom. You also want to provide plenty of tools for the affiliates to use.

A good starter set of affiliate tools would include:

Banner and button ads

Articles

A viral report

Blog posts

Keyword lists

PPC ads

And you want to educate prospective affiliates about how to use the tools to drive traffic to your site for sales. By recruiting affiliates, you will have multiple sites directing people to your product. They earn and you earn.

But in order to build a solid affiliate program, you have to make it worthwhile for them to promote your product. Dismal commission percentages won’t keep people working for you.

Your affiliate program can be set up either to pay affiliates by the lead, the sale or in some cases by having potential customers click on a link. However you set up your program, it has to be beneficial enough to draw them in and keep them promoting for you.

How to Be a Super Affiliate Marketer

July 15, 2011 By 6 Comments

Super Affiliates
Too many online entrepreneurs settle for becoming a marketer when they could be so much more. Are you one of them? Have you heard other marketers bragging about making thousands each week when you’re barely squeaking out a few dollars?

Take a look at what separates you from them. It’s not that they’re any smarter or any more talented. It’s simply that they found what worked and then worked it until the profits started rolling in. So how did they do it and how can you copy that success?

First of all, you have to know what you need to promote. Just because you happen to like a product doesn’t mean that it will sell well, so don’t just look for products that make you feel warm and fuzzy inside.

Instead, research what the hot selling products are and look for the products that will give you a higher return. For example, 10% of a $1,000 product is $100 in your pocket. But 50% of a $60 product is just $30 in your pocket, so don’t rely on percentages alone.

Once you find a good item to promote, start marketing aggressively. Talk it up on your website, present it on your blog, write articles about it, bring it to the attention of the public on Squidoo, Hub Pages, Google Knol and on your other social media sites.

Next, go the extra mile. Everyone likes dessert. So after you offer the main course of the product, sweeten the deal with a little something extra that savvy marketers often call a bonus.

It’s sort of like the television offers you’ve heard: “But wait! There’s more!” which is a line used to seal the deal, to tip the scales in the marketer’s favor – which of course is the customer making a purchase.

You want to offer the product and then bring on the extra. You have to make it something the potential buyer really wants and he can’t get it without buying the product. Something that complements the original purchase nicely – not a bonus that’s irrelevant to their needs.

You also want to create a buzz or spread the word about the bonus offer as well. Not only do you let the general public know about the offer, but you also make sure your list knows there’s a special deal waiting for them if they buy.

Anticipation is what creates an appetite among buyers. The worst thing for a marketer is to have a product that no one knows about. While word of mouth will bring in a few customers, your pre-launch days for your product are what will bring in the masses. Do a count down until the product releases and once it goes live, let your customers race out of the gate to be one of the first buyers.

Defining What It Means to Be an Internet Marketer

June 19, 2011 By 3 Comments

internet marketer

There’s no PhD you can strive for to be in the Internet marketing industry. You have to learn as you go – on your own – soaking up information along the way.  The first thing you need to know is what it means to be an Internet marketer, because it isn’t always clear to everyone.

Let’s start with what Internet marketing is not.  It’s not being a con artist. It’s not being a spam king.  It doesn’t just mean selling on eBay or having your own website and products.

In reality, Internet marketers can pick and choose from a whole host of options available to help them make money.  Your opportunities are virtually endless, and include one or more of the following:

  • Selling digital downloads (information products like eBooks)
  • Promoting other people’s products for a commission (affiliate marketing)
  • Selling on eBay or other auction sites
  • Running a membership site
  • Selling your online services (writing, graphics, etc.)
  • Owning a website that sells dropshipped or wholesale items

And this is just the tip of the iceberg.  Being a newcomer to Internet marketing, you might be worried that you don’t have anything to sell.  That’s okay – most people don’t start out with anything, and you never have t stock a tangible inventory if you don’t want to.

Internet marketing creates no gender or age boundaries for you.  There are teenagers who have launched multi-million dollar companies as budding Internet marketers whose ideas sprung to life and catapulted them to instant success.

You don’t have to do anything unethical or shady to succeed at Internet marketing, and in fact, launching a respectable business with a solid reputation is the secret ingredient that will allow you to hatch an empire on the ‘net to fulfill all of your dreams and those of your family.

Affiliate Marketing – An Easy Way to Success

June 18, 2011 By 4 Comments

Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is when you sign up to promote other people’s products (or services) for a share of the sale in the form of commissions.  As an affiliate marketer, you usually don’t need any special training or start-up funding.

Your tasks as an affiliate marketer will be to drum up traffic to the product owner’s pitch page, allowing them to convert the prospect into a buyer.  The more targeted you are with your traffic promotions, the higher your conversion rate will be.

There are many things you can promote as an affiliate. On Amazon, for instance, you can promote anything tangible (and a few digital download to boot).  If you want to be in the paintball niche, you can include links using your Amazon associate (affiliate) ID to sell specific paintball guns, paintballs, and attire.

You can go to sites like ClickBank or PayDotCom and get a unique affiliate ID to promote an endless supply of information products.  They house everything from acne to organic gardening.

You can even become an affiliate promoting actions.  There are many Internet marketers who focus their business on getting a steady stream of traffic to take an action, such as filling out a survey online.

With affiliate marketing, you don’t have to worry about developing ideas and creating products.  You don’t have to deal with customer service follow-ups or continually process more products for the marketplace.

Your job is often made easier by product owners who care so much about their own success, that they provide a toolbox to help you with yours!  The toolbox usually includes readymade emails, web reviews, and banner ads you can use with your own link embedded in them for instant plug-n-play success.

Most Internet marketers will eventually blur the lines of product owner and affiliate marketer.  Product owners continually use their list of buyers to promote affiliate items, and affiliates often build such a good reputation in a niche that they’re urged to come out with a product of their own.

How much can an affiliate marketer earn? There are no limits. You can market multiple niches and work as much or as little as you want to generate targeted traffic through your links.  Super affiliates earn six figures or more, but even a beginner affiliate can earn enough to pay the bills each month – with some change to spare!
