One of the most lucrative aspects of affiliate marketing is in being able to build an online income even without a product of your own. While information development is an incredibly profitable market when you're
just entering the world of online business, affiliate marketing simplifies the
process, while giving you the opportunity to gain hands-on experience without having to deal with the multiple tasks and responsibilities associated with being the developer or merchant.

Introduction To Affiliate Marketing
One of the most lucrative aspects of affiliate marketing is in being able to build an
online income even without a product of your own.
While information development is an incredibly profitable market, when you're 
just entering the world of online business, affiliate marketing simplifies the 
process, while giving you the opportunity to gain hands-on experience without 
having to deal with the multiple tasks and responsibilities associated with being 
the developer or merchant.
For example, as an information product developer, you're responsible for all 
customer support inquiries and requests, and you need to spend time updating 
your product, working on keeping it consistently fresh and current based on 
market demand.  
It's your job to satisfy customers, to handle refund requests, and to consistently 
work to optimize conversion rates.
As an affiliate marketer, however, you never have to spend any time on the 
product development, delivery or support issues, and instead, can focus on 
developing profitable campaigns that jack in commission payments 24 hours a 
day!
Your only job is to develop highly targeted campaigns that promote high quality 
products and then build powerful traffic campaigns that funnel in red-hot 
prospects who are interested in purchasing the products you promote.
Then, cash your commission checks and rinse and repeat the process!
Affiliate marketing is not only incredibly simple to get involved in but it's a 
very rewarding experience.
It gives you the freedom to choose as many different niche markets as you wish, 
exploring countless opportunities and learning the ropes as you go.  What other 
way can you "earn as you learn"?
So, now that you know just a few of the reasons why so many new marketers 
begin their journey into online business as affiliate marketers, let's take a closer 
look at what you can do to join the ranks of successful earners!

Choosing Products To Promote
Choosing quality products is an important part of every affiliate campaign, 
because you want to make sure that you are setting up campaigns around 
products that are likely to convert.   
This means that you need to spend time carefully researching and evaluating 
products in order to create your "affiliate swipe file". 
When it comes to choosing a niche, there are two methods that will help you get 
started:
1) 1) Choose a niche that is evergreen
2) 2) Identify demand and profitability based on existing competition
Take down notes of possible products and niche markets that look interesting to 
you.
Then, search for related forums, groups and blogs to determine what people are 
looking for, how big the market is and what is currently in demand.  
Then, investigate keywords to determine how much competition is in the 
marketplace as well as how many searches take place each month for specific 
keyword phrases relating to each niche market.
If you plan to promote digital products, the best place to start looking for quality 
products is through ClickBank.
ClickBank is the largest online marketplace for digital products, and you'll be able
to quickly pinpoint hot sellers by browsing through their many categories. 
ClickBank offers detailed statistics and information regarding each specific 
product making it even easier to quickly evaluate the profitability of potential 
campaigns. 
Here is what these mean:
• $/sale: The amount of money you earn for each sale.
• Future $: Average rebill revenue.
• Total $/sale: Average total $ per sale, including all rebills.
• %/sale: The percentage of the product sale price that the sale represents.
• %/refd: Fraction of publisher’s total sales that are referred by affiliates.
• Grav: The measure of how many affiliates are promoting the product. 
For each affiliate paid in the last 8 weeks Clickbank adds an amount between 0.1
and 1.0 to the total. The more recent the last referral, the higher the value added.

The Gravity indicator will tell you how well a product is selling. So a gravity score 
of 100 means a product is potentially selling better than one with a gravity score 
of 20. 
When it comes to gravity assigned to any specific product, a gravity of 70 or 
higher is usually a good sign that the product is still in demand, and being 
actively promoted by other affiliates.
To take things a bit further, you can use free services such as CBTrends or 
CBEngine  to further evaluate each product, in terms of performance, demand, 
and the number of affiliate marketer's that are promoting it (which is always a 
good indication of how profitable the market is).
There are many other affiliate networks and marketplaces worth exploring, with 
many offering a combination of both digital and physical products.
Here are a few to help you get started:
Amazon Marketplace
https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/ 
I suggest using Amazon to locate products primarily with a higher price point, as 
their payout rate is set at only 4%.  Personally, I use Amazon only for products 
priced at $200 or higher to make up the difference in the low-end commission 
offer. 
Still, the Amazon marketplace is a great way to monetize extra space on your 
website or blog, and with their extended affiliate options, such as being able to 
integrate an "astore" into your website, you're given a lot of flexibility as to how 
you can develop affiliate campaigns.
Tip: You can monetize your feeder sites with Amazon modules and plugins, just 
by logging into your Amazon Associates account and exploring their 'extended' 
options.
Commission Junction
http://www.CommissionJunction.com
Otherwise known as “CJ.com”, Commission Junction has been around for many 
years and is known to pay on time and provide unbeatable support.  
They also feature hundreds of merchants across the board spanning thousands 
of niche markets.  
You may require approval prior to being able to participate in select affiliate

programs, as Commission Junction provides merchants the opportunity to pre-
approve affiliates, but the application is extremely simple and you can expect to 
receive a response in a matter of a few hours.
Share A Sale
http://www.ShareASale.com 
ShareASale.com has grown into an extensive affiliate marketplace, and since all 
merchants are required to retain a cash balance of funds used to pay affiliates, 
it’s a risk-free way to ensure that you are paid for all of your efforts.
Pay Dot Com
http://www.paydotcom.com 
PayDotCom is similar to ClickBank in that it only features digital products. One of
the key differences between PayDotCom and Clickbank however is that when 
promoting products through PayDotCom, it's up the merchant to pay you, and 
this is done primarily through Paypal. 
With ClickBank, you are paid by the company itself based on their payment 
schedule (every two weeks for paper check or weekly via direct bank transfer).
Link Share Services
http://www.LinkShare.com
Link Share is an ever-growing affiliate marketplace and with it comes a great 
variety of lucrative and high paying affiliate opportunities.
You can create your Link Share account.

Setting Up Campaigns
The majority of your time as an affiliate marketer will be spent setting up 
campaigns.  Campaigns involve a series of tasks, including developing squeeze 
pages, landing pages and most importantly - content pages.
Content pages offer information to visitors who land on the website, and 
essentially warm them up by giving them valuable information and then focusing 
that information about specific products.
For example, if you decided to promote a golf equipment package via Amazon's 
marketplace, you could create a content site based around golf. 
You would offer a variety of resources including articles and resources that 
provided visitors with sufficient information about the niche, while promoting the 
golf package within the content.
Not only are content pages important in order to convert visitors into customers 
by providing valuable information, but they are important to your search engine 
ranking as well. Search engines will see that your website provides a lot of great 
content and is targeted towards relevant keywords, and in turn, will rank your 
website accordingly.
This means you'll be able to generate very high quality, organic traffic to your 
affiliate based content sites in a very short amount of time - and without paying a 
dime for traffic!
Here are a few ways to set up highly targeted affiliate campaigns:
Niche Based Websites
With niche-based websites, you simply select 10-20 products all based around a 
specific niche market. For example, weight loss or parenting. 
You then construct an article-powered niche website that features 10 different 
articles, and at the bottom of every article, you feature a direct link to the 
merchants website.
Niche based websites are very easy to set up, but just keep in mind that each 
website needs a specific theme. You want to segment your affiliate campaigns 
so that every website is focused around one specific market (or niche), so that 
you can funnel targeted traffic to your websites without convoluting the process.
Think about your websites structure from your visitors’ perspective. If you were 
interested in finding out more information about the golf market, and you landed 
on a content website that had multiple categories where golf wasn't the main 
focus, not only would you likely exit the site but you wouldn't think it was an

authority site.  
Authority sites ALWAYS focus on one specific market segment, so that they can 
deliver quality and informative content that warms up visitors and maximizes 
profits.
When creating your content site, hire a writer to create 10-15 keyword rich 
articles around different areas within that market. 
For example, if you were to create an affiliate based content site on weight loss, 
you could create articles on all different aspects of losing weight, from healthy 
eating guides to work out routines.  
Then, match up each article with a relevant affiliate product, and feature an ad 
box in the middle and end of each article, or integrate text based affiliate links 
within the content itself.
Tip: You can download a free copy of XSitePro's HTML Editing tool to create 
your content pages quickly and easily.  
Download:  http://www.xsitepro.com/
Product Specific Blogs
One of the easiest ways to create an affiliate based content website is to use the 
power of Wordpress blogs. With Wordpress, you can download a free copy of 
their powerful blogging software, install it onto your own hosting account and 
have a fully functional, dynamic website created in under a few minutes.
Then, you can easily optimize your blog for the search engines using 
Wordpress's built in optimization tools, or download interactive plugins that will 
help to thoroughly optimize (and monetize) your blog for top search engine 
ranking.
Blogs always rank quickly within the major search engines based on their SILO 
structure. A SILO is a targeted websites that is broken down into segments or 
individual categories. 
Then, keywords are used to clearly describe each area of the site. Since SILO's 
help search engine crawlers explore the website, and identify the relevancy of 
your website based on the keywords featured throughout the site, blogs tend to 
rank quickly AND rank higher!
You can grab a copy of Wordpress from http://www.Wordpress.org 
When creating affiliate content pages either with HTML or with blogs, make sure 
to choose a keyword-rich domain name that clearly defines what your site is

about. 
This will not only help search engines identify your website, but it will help human
visitors instantly recognize your site based on included keywords.  Plus, if you 
plan on promoting your website with PPC marketing campaigns, a direct, 
keyword rich domain name will increase your click through rates.
For example, if you are setting up an affiliate website focusing on weight loss, 
consider domain names such as:
• WeightLossReviews
• WeightLossIdeas
• LosingWeightQuickly
• HowToLoseWeight
• WeightLossHub
You can register a domain name through many different registrars including 
www.NameCheap.com  and www.GoDaddy.com.
Review Websites And Pages
One of the easiest ways to create powerful, high performance affiliate websites is
to use the power of a strong review.  
Review based affiliate sites capture the sale as people looking for last minute 
information or reassurance regarding a product are always on the lookout for 
feedback and testimonials from customers who have purchased and used the 
product.
When creating your review website, you want to again, focus it on one specific 
topic. 
Don't create a multi-level review site that spreads out its information or coverage 
across multiple niche markets, because you want potential customers to put faith
in your review, and it's difficult to do that if you are writing dozens of reviews on 
various products in the same market, and giving each one a "thumbs up"!
People will only be motivated to purchase a product after reading your review, if 
they believe it is honest and thorough. People want to know that you’ve done 
your homework, or that you have personal experience with the products you are 
reviewing on your website.
This means you need to include both pros and cons about each product, 
highlighting the products strengths, but being upfront about any weaknesses in 
the product. 
Lamar Schoell LLC
- 10 -
Affiliate Rockstar
If you do this, your reviews will appear more genuine, and you'll find it easier to 
motivate visitors into taking action and closing the sale.
You may get a lot of search engine traffic for specific product names and model 
numbers.  This is where review sites shine.  Instead of trying to rank for a 
competitive phrase like “cell phones”, you can instead rank for “brand name 
model number review”.  
So, make sure to optimize every review page to include the product title, authors 
name and other relevant keywords that will help visitors find your page within the 
search engines.
WP Review Site is a script that will allow you to turn an existing Wordpress blog 
into a dynamic, powerful review website network, allowing you to easily create 
niche review sites on as many topics as you wish.

Promoting Your Campaigns
Once you have an affiliate content website ready for your market, it's time to 
begin driving targeted traffic to it!  
You can do this a number of different ways, and in this segment of the report, 
we'll explore the most cost effective strategies to jump-starting your campaigns.
Article Marketing
One of the easiest ways of launching an affiliate campaign is by using article 
marketing directories.
With article content, you can simply submit it into the larger article directories and
within minutes of being approved, can begin to see traffic flowing to your landing 
pages.  
In exchange for providing them with free content, you get to include some text 
and links in a section at the bottom of each article called a resource box.
EzineArticles.com (http://www.ezinearticles.com) is the biggest, most 
popular, highest-traffic article directory.  They have tremendous authority in 
Google, and articles often rank extremely well, so they can get a lot of traffic.
As long as your articles are structured so that you are providing solid, useful 
content with a link back to your website showcased within the resource box, 
article marketing is a simple and effective strategy to generating prime traffic.
Another important thing to keep in mind is that you should always use anchor 
text within your resource boxes, rather than a direct link to your site.  Anchor text 
will help you rank for many different keywords rather than just your website URL 
itself.
Here is the HTML code to use in your resource box if you want to use anchor text
rather than a direct URL:
<a href=http://www.yourdomain.com” > Your Anchor Keyword Here </a>
You would replace yourdomain.com with your domain URL and include a 
relevant keyword phrase in the anchor text.
Your author’s resource box needs to be as strong as your article’s headline and 
contain information that will pull a reader in and motivate them to click on your 
link and visit your website.
Essentially, a resource box is very much like a fast-track commercial. You have

only a few seconds to motivate them to read further and explore your website. 
Here are the top five article marketing directories that I personally use for all of 
my campaigns: 
www.EzineArticles.com 
www.GoArticles.com 
www.ArticlesBase.com  
www.ArticleCity.com 
www.ArticleDashboard.com  
You can always choose to save time by hiring an Article submission service to 
automatically submit your articles for you.

Ezine Advertising
Advertising in newsletters can be a cost effective and very powerful method of 
spreading your affiliate links throughout the market very quickly.  
When purchasing ezine (or newsletter) advertising, you always want to try to 
purchase "solo" ads, so that you are able to broadcast an article tied in with your 
affiliate link, without having to compete with other advertisers.
Here is a partial list of ezines that offer solo advertisement spacing:

When contacting newsletter owners to promote within their broadcasts, you want 
to find out how many subscribers they have, as well as how many times they'll 
run your ad. 
You also want a good idea as to their overall open rate, and whether there are 
specific days where they've seen a higher response level.

Feeder Sites
If you want to push your marketing message out to your niche market quickly, 
and absolutely free - you'll want to turn to feeder sites.
Feeder sites are free remotely hosted web services that allow you to create 
simple websites or web pages, such as Squidoo, available at 
http://www.Squidoo.com, who provides a free "hub building service" to anyone 
wishing to create a content rich web page.
Feeder sites are such a popular method of building targeted traffic campaigns 
because of how quickly they rank in the major search engines. 
Since these websites are deemed "authority sites", they're already ranked high in
engines like Google.com, and so by creating your sub-page on their server, your 
page will be discovered by search engine spiders, and ranked very quickly.
When creating your Squidoo lens, be sure to take advantage of the various 
modules that you can include on your page, and place a prominent link back to 
your main affiliate content page as well!
In addition, break up you content into short articles, and avoid linking to any 
related products until after the initial launch is over, since your focus is on 
funneling this traffic through your affiliate link to the products order page.
For each feeder site, upload 1-2 keyword rich articles and spice up your pages 
with images, videos and use built in modules or plugins whenever possible.
When you've finished creating your feeder pages, ping each URL to get the 
traffic pumping in. You can do this with either http://www.Pingomatic.com or 
http://www.PingGoat.com 
Here are the top feeder site resources to help you get started:
Blogger: http://www.Blogger.com 
Wordpress:  http://www.Wordpress.com 
WikiDot
This is a great way to get your sites ranking in the search engines quickly is by 
creating an account at http://www.Wikidot.com
