Top Ten Tips for Affiliates

Top Ten Tips for Affiliates
Affiliate marketing is a type of performance-based marketing in which a business rewards one or more affiliates for each visitor or customer brought by the affiliate’s own marketing efforts. The industry has four core players 👉The merchant (also known as ‘retailer’ or ‘brand’), 👉The network (that contains offers for the affiliate to choose from and also takes care of the payments), 👉The publisher (also known as ‘the affiliate’), and 👉The customer. Affiliate marketing overlaps with other Internet marketing methods to some degree, because affiliates often use regular advertising methods. Those methods include organic search engine optimization (SEO), paid search engine marketing (PPC – Pay Per Click), e-mail marketing, content marketing and in some sense display advertising. On the other hand, affiliates sometimes use less orthodox techniques, such as publishing reviews of products or services offered by a partner. Affiliate marketing is commonly confused with referral marketing, as both forms of marketing use third parties to drive sales to the retailer. Affiliate Marketing Vs Referral Marketing However, both are distinct forms of marketing and the main difference between them is that affiliate marketing relies purely on financial motivations to drive sales while referral marketing relies on trust and personal relationships to drive sales. Affiliate marketing is frequently overlooked by advertisers. While search engines, e-mail, and website syndication capture much of the attention of online retailers, affiliate marketing carries a much lower profile. Still, affiliates continue to play a significant role in e-retailers’ marketing strategies. Read on the ten tips that will boost your affiliate marketing skills.

Tip Number Six: Promote products with maximum revenue generation in the form of commissions. Tip Number Seven: Facebook though a best platform to promote, as it imbibes html codes and iframe syntax, in my opinion, twitter brings you more web traffic and in turn affiliate clicks. Tip Number Eight: You have to understand that it is not wise to fill the web page with too much of affiliate clutter, as it might work the otherway round. Yes, it will be a traffic driver out of your website or a blog.
