Affiliate marketing is not as easy as it looks on the outside.
If you have been thinking of starting a revenue generation stream using affiliate marketing then you need to have a good strategy in place.
Here are some tips that will help you: Success Tip # 1: The most important aspect of affiliate marketing is banner advertising.
If you choose an affiliate program then they will send you banners, which you will need to display on your website.
If you put around 10 banners on a particular web page then there is a probability of only one banner being clicked on.
If you can achieve a click-through rate of 2% in affiliate marketing then you are doing a good job! To get the 2%, you will need to choose the right type of banners.
Focus on banners that you feel as a customer, you would be tempted to click on immediately.
Avoid banners that are heavy on animation as they can annoy visitors.
Success Tip # 2: Use text ad links.
This is one of the most successful forms of advertising.
Text ad links will not take too much bandwidth and can be integrated within a website with ease.
You can even implement these links directly in your web page content.
Success Tip # 3: Combine email with ad articles to make a strong affiliate marketing promotion strategy.
Direct promotion through email is a good way to start but follow it up with articles that will advertise and promote certain products.
That's 3 success tips you can start applying immediately.
