Make Money Business Opportunities - Discover How to Earn First $2,000 in Affiliate Marketing with Zero Cost!
Well, I am going to share you an interesting post about how to earn first $2,000 in the affiliate marketing with zero cost. You will discover and learn step-by-step guideline for your affiliate business. I believe that those steps are very interesting and useful for new affiliate marketing entrepreneurs who have limited budget and don't want to advertise the affilaite products through pay per click search engines. It is a great alternative way to earn big money with a short term.
Here are the steps:
"Step One
Pick an affiliate product to sell. This unfortunately may be one of the hardest steps and you could fail on your first try. There are so many products to choose from and so few ways to find out which ones are selling and may be the right ones for you to try to sell. I suggest signing up at ClickBank or Commission Junction. You want to make sure that the first product or products you try to sell are not Internet marketing related. Selling "how to make money online" products is almost impossible when you yourself don’t know how to do it. Leave that to the more experienced people.
You want to start out selling things to people who are less apt to understand that you are trying to sell them something so that you can get a commission. My parents, for example, would be a great target audience. They have no idea that some links are affiliate links and others are not.
My first products were the two Warcraft guides (Joana's and Brian Kopp's) which are sold through ClickBank. I might have gotten lucky that Warcraft was especially hot at that time (that’s why I chose them) and within about 2 weeks of starting I was making an average of about a sale a day. Not everyday was the same, some days I might have made 3 sales and other days none, but one a day was the average.
I then diversified a little and also started selling some health related items from Commission Junction. Those were targeted at women who I thought might be a little less likely to know about or care about what an affiliate link was.
Step Two
After you have selected a product that you would like to sell, you need a destination for your prospective buyers to go. You need a webpage of some sort. I wanted to start out for free and therefore did not want to buy a domain. I did not know how to buy a domain and if I got one would not have known what to do with it. I had heard so much about Wordpress and Blogger as being great free blogging platforms that I signed up with both of them. I must say that I did not know anything about their terms of service and I still don’t (I don’t need to anymore because I have my own domains). I have heard that some users have had their accounts terminated for having too many affiliate links on their free blogs. Just remember that if you open up a free blog you really don’t own it. Keep that in mind before you spend too much time making it look just perfect.
Step Three
I started with Wordpress so I will use them as an example. Click on the "sign up now" button which will take you to a screen that will ask you for a username, password, and email address. Pick your username and password and type in your email and click the “Next” button. It will lead you to the next page. This next page is where you will choose your blog name (domain). Pick a name that is sort of neutral. In other words, pick a name that can go with any product you may decide to sell such as "reviewsite" or "reviewweb". Don't pick a name like "JoesBlog" because that will look strange if you are promoting things on it. Finish filling out that page and press "Signup". If you have no errors and have picked a blog name that no one else has then it will take you to the final page that looks like the picture below.
Step Four
Now that you have a blog and have named it, the next step is to choose a layout for your blog. You will need to get into the "Dashboard" of your blog and click on the "Presentation" tab along the top. Once you do that you will find about 5 pages of thumbnail pictures of the different blog layouts you can choose from. I suggest choosing one that looks the simplest and the least like a "blog" that you can find. I have had success with the "Wordpress Classic" theme that is shown on the 5th page (at the time of this writing) of the blog layout choices.
Click on the theme you decide is best (you can easily change it if you decide to later) and then click the “Activate This Theme” in the upper right hand corner. Another good theme you might try is the “White As Milk” theme on the same page.
Step Five
The next thing I did was to make a landing page on my blog where the visitors would "land" and hopefully click my link to the seller's ad. For this I did a lot of copying and pasting. I went to Brian Kopp's Warcraft front sales page and copied sections of his page and then pasted it on to mine. I had to do a lot of tinkering with this as things don’t always copy/paste as you want them to. Centering things and aligning them was another challenge for me as a beginner but with a lot of trial and error I got it to look OK.
To get the page as clean as possible I had to delete everything I could find like the default post and the blogroll. I then had to click the "presentation" tab and then the "widgets" sub-tab to get to the sidebar. I then dragged the "links" widget up into the sidebar which got rid of some of the other stuff on the side of the blog. Also, if you need to know how to do a hyperlink please go to this post to learn how.
For this tutorial I have opened up a free Wordpress blog (called "reviewmeplease") and I have recreated the exact landing page I made when I first started out. It is not for the Warcraft guide but for another ClickBank product. Click HERE to see that example of the landing page I made for the "Stop Sweating and Start Living" ebook. All the affiliate links have been disabled.
This is not the best landing page you will ever see and in fact it is quite poor. However, I did it all for free and that was what I wanted. I hoped that I could get a few potential buyers to my page and they would be interested enough in learning the “Stop Sweating” secret that they would click through to the more professional seller’s page. Once there, it was up to the seller to make the sale. My job was just to get them there.
Step Six
Now I had to get targeted traffic to my site/blog/landing page(s). I used Craigslist exclusively for this. You have to make sure you post your ads in the correct sections or they will get flagged for sure. In the case of the Stop Sweating product I posted my ad under "Services Offered" and then "Beauty Services" and it looked something like this:
"Do Away With Those Underarm Sweat Problems (Title)
This book will reveal a 100% all-natural step by step
process that you can use to quickly and easily
eliminate your underarm sweat problems forever.
Please click HERE for more information."
I made 5 variations of this ad which was quite easy to do and I had each variation on an Excell spreadsheet. I would then make a post of each ad variation in five different cities. I could then change Craigslist email accounts (I had 10 of them) and make the same posts again in 5 more cities. I had to be very careful not to get too ambitious and post too much as I would then run the risk of having every ad flagged and deleted. You can read my article about posting to multiple cities and the problems I have had HERE."
Final thoughts, you have learnt how to earn money in the affiliate marketing business along with promoting the affiliate products as online classified ads. I believe that online classified ads is a great alternative way to earn money online if you have limited budget and want to lower your advertise cost.
