Affiliate Web Site Marketing

Learning to market online effectively can be a challenge for many new internet marketers. However there are many approaches that can work well for you if you are just willing to stick with them and learn them appropriately.

There are many way to market affiliate products. Some of the common approaches involve pay per click advertising and also using free classifieds. Pay per click (ppc) advertising can be very profitable but you need to know what you are doing otherwise you could lose a lot of money very quickly. With ppc advertising make sure you are keeping track of your ads, Google adwords has a great system to help you track your ads. Make sure you use their conversion tracking feature as it can give a great idea of the effectiveness of each keyword that you are bidding on.

Using articles can be a great way to promote your affiliate products. This is especially useful if you are on a tight budget as it is also free. In your articles there is a section where you can place your author information which can include links to pages on your site that promote affiliate products. These links should ideally point to review style pages that are looking at some of the affiliate products you promote. You can distribute the articles to many different article directories or you can use a service like Article Marketer to help spread your articles.

There are also many other sites you can promote your affiliate products such as Squidoo. Using Squidoo you can create a lens about your affiliate products and people in the Squidoo community will visit your lens and may purchase your affiliate products. If you do not have your own site you can even send people directly from your pay per click ads to your Squidoo lenses so you do not even need to own a website. With affiliate marketing it is often a numbers game, so you need to be promoting as many products as possible at the same time. If money becomes an issue just turn to the free advertising approaches to promote more products.
