Let's Find the Right Keywords

In the second of the "Affiliate Marketing News" sequence of articles, I will talk about the second step you need to take on your road to become a successful affiliate marketer. In the previous article I showed you some ways of finding good products, and in this one I will discuss the way to choose the right keywords for advertising them.

I guess you know by now what "long tail keywords" are. Phrases of three or more words are considered "long tail keywords". Here is a quick example so you immediately understand what it's all about.

Let's say your hobby is sewing and you found a great sewing patterns product. Google the key phrase "sewing patterns" and you will discover there are over 1,300,000 results to your search! In no way do you want to enter into this kind of competition. But if you search for the exact phrase "sewing patterns online," Google will return only 10,600 results. When you are done reading this series of articles you'll see that you could dominate this niche.

I use a wonderful tool, which gives me the number of sites that are optimized for a given keyword or phrase. My tool tells me that only four out of 10,600 sites are optimized for the phrase "sewing patterns online." The bad news is that the same tool also indicates that there are 176,000 searches per month for "sewing patterns" while just 4,500 searches for "sewing patterns online."

But, and there is a but, 4,500 searches combined with another log tail keyword like "sewing patterns costumes," that has over 2,000 monthly searches and zero optimized web sites, brings your total to almost 7,000 searches a month – a very nice search volume. And when you read my following articles, you'll learn how to take advantage of these data and start using the search engines for your promotions.

Performing a thorough keywords research is the most essential step for achieving a lucrative promotion. This is the backbone of any successful online marketing business. Your first search should be for the resources that would help you researching. There are a lot of free tools that you can find online.

Start by using the broadest terms: "cooking," "diet," "golf," and move on by digging deeper until you reach the long tail keywords. Keep checking on Google and the other search engines; find what the volume of searches. Eventually you will find 3-4 phrases of 3-5 words with a few thousands of monthly searches and a low competition in the form of optimized sites.

As I already mentioned, this step is the most important one in your journey to make money. You should devote your time and your best efforts to keywords research. Find online helpful tools, some are free and others have a reasonable price. They will save you a lot of time and subsequently a lot of money.

I will publish my third article in a few days and show you the different alternatives to promote products.

Finding Hot Products To Promote

In the next couple of weeks I will publish a series of posts, each details a step on the way to a rewarding affiliate marketing business. The first article is written for people who are completely new to the subject and are still looking for information. I will suggest a simple definition of affiliate marketing and show some simple ideas for finding lucrative products.

This article is not meant for skilled marketers or for people who are familiar with affiliate marketing and are familiar with the process of identifying products to promote, as it will discuss only the very basics. Hopefully some of the future articles will cover advanced steps, which even veteran marketers will find beneficial.

Let's start by trying to define "affiliate marketing". I always say that there is a lot of likeness between Affiliate Marketing and the California Gold Rush of the 19^th century. The fortune is there and you have to uncover it. Anyway, back to definition: the affiliate marketer gets a nice commission from the product seller every time a purchase is made by one of the visitors that you have sent to their sale page.

Roughly, you'll find three types of products: material ones – from shoes to yachts; information products – videos, software, ebooks, that are instantly downloaded to the purchaser's computer; and subscriptions to newsletters, registrations to a course etc. Thousands and thousands of sellers pay commission their affiliates for purchases and for leads.

You can see that the fortunes are there, hidden under the ground in Internet land. You need to go out there and dig it out. Most new affiliate marketers learn that their first step, i.e. finding the right product, is the most complicated step.

Let me suggest a few ideas for starters:

1. Think of a product that you have purchased online and were very happy with. Try to become an affiliate. Visit the product's web site or sales page and click on the link to the "affiliate program." You can read there all the details you would want to know.
2. Think about your hobbies. Subjects you are really interested in, such as sewing, poker playing, gardening, anything. You may know a lot about your hobby and perhaps you are a member of some forums. This will come very handy when you are ready to promote the product you choose. For instance, if your hobby is poker. You play with friends on weekends; you watch the TV poker shows. Search for a poker learning software or course to easily promote.
3. Think of products that are on the hot list in the United States, do a little research and find out if the Europeans heard about them. If not yet, promote these products in Europe only, using the different pay per click programs that let you choose the areas where your ads are shown. The same can be done with a product that you've found in any foreign country and is not yet known in the US.
4. Follow the popular products on your kids' list. Talk to them and to their friend or to any group of teenagers to find out what they like. These are usually best selling items.
   
5. Make a habit of looking at the popular magazines. They usually report about the latest trends and stylish products.
   
6. And, obviously: become an affiliate at Commision Junction, ClickBank and other such services. Their databases have thousands of products and they'll let you know what the best sellers are.

In my next post I will describe the second step on the way to rewarding affiliate marketing.

Is There an Effortless Way to Make Money Online?

Have you ever hoped for an easy way to make money free online? A way to make a nice income that does not entail working hard or spending a lot of time and a lot of money and even does not require to build your own website?

I know you wish there was such a system, where you could spend just a little time and almost no money, to snatch a piece of the Internet gold pie. You need to know that when I say "easy way", I mean even with no knowledge of websites, no HTML, no shopping cart and credit cards, no email lists – in two words: no annoyance !

I'm sure you are tired and frustrated with all the "opportunities" that you have already come across in your quest for the effortless road to make money free online and you cannot believe that there is a system that will do it for you. But, actually, there is more than one such method. You just need some advice to help you find the best one.

But first, let me tell you about the two key obstacles you will run into on your road to prosperous affiliate marketing, to make money free online.

Obstacle number one is deciding on which product to sell. You know that being an affiliate means sending traffic to the merchant's site and they pay you a percentage of the sale price when your visitors buy their product.

There are a million affiliate programs and a billion websites on the Internet with products for sale. But – how can anybody decide which products are not only good but also easy to sell? You have to identify and advertise products that will earn you money. You will have to invest a lot of time, efforts and money in order to find then on your own.

Obstacle number two is more complex. Even if you found a high-quality highly-in-demand product, you still need to promote it and bring shoppers to the merchant's website or to your site, which will redirect the traffic to the merchant's shopping cart. Without shoppers there you will not sell and if you don't sell you will not make money. So, how do you go about it?

You need an automatic system, which can remove these two major obstacles out of your way before you can effortlessly make money free online. And this unique method is out there and could easily be found.

CBmall is by far the best solution for all your needs. I will tell you all about it in my next post.

The One Thing I Learned From My Great Grandmother and You Should Know Too If You Want to Succeed in Affiliate Marketing

In 1850, when she was only 17 years old, my great grandmother, Mathilda, arrived in California with her three older brothers and her parents, who were among the hundreds of thousands of Americans and foreigners who traveled to the Western state in hope of striking gold.

My family's story-book claims that Mathilda, single-handedly, discovered one of the most lucrative gold fields in Sierra Nevada. Another story tells of her forbidden love affair with a married man, who apparently fathered my great grandfather. But I'll tell you about that some other time.

Mathilda, as you can imagine, was a hell of a woman. The unbelievable fortune she had made in 1852 in California was all lost by her grandson, my grandfather, in 1929 in New York, when the stock exchange crashed. Fortunately, she did not live to see it.

"What in the world is he talking about?" I can hear you asking yourself right now, "What does that have to do with affiliate marketing?" Be patient, my friend. You'll know in a minute.

Hundreds of thousands of people went to California in search of gold. The few ones that found it and became incredibly rich were those who seized the opportunity when it presented itself to them; second, they had the courage to take risks in pursuit of their dreams; and third, they had both the knowledge and the tools to go about it. Mathilda was one of them. Her legacy is true to this day: "He (or, in her case, She) who dares – conquers."

This is it, my friend. Affiliate marketing is the Gold Rush of the beginning of the 21^st century. Don't miss out on it. Grab the opportunity now, before it's too late. If you want to fulfill your dreams of gold, have courage, get yourself the knowledge and the tools, and go get it!

The Internet, although already so advanced and overwhelming, is still in its diapers. It is as California was in the middle of the 19^th century, full of hidden gold. Only now, instead of a pan and a shovel and hard physical work, you can sit at home in front of your computer. Only the gold is the same precious gold. Anybody can do it, you too.

Now is the time. Don't wake up 5 or 10 years from now regretting your failure to spot the occasion on time. Don't forget Mathilda: "She who dares – conquers."
