| If you think affiliate marketing is easy money, think again. You have to work just as hard at affiliate marketing as you would for any other website. Some get involved in affiliate marketing thinking they can just set up a one page website with a link and they will start raking in cash. Some people think that they will convert at a one to one ratio for every click when that is not the case. Many don’t take the time to research markets, select their keywords, apply good content, optimize their web pages, and set advertising budgets. Those are the people that fail.If you get involved in affiliate marketing then you should try to avoid throwing up a crappy site because it will not work. Take your time and research your market. See how many search results there are for your main keywords. See how many searches per month your keywords get by looking at the overture search tool. After that task is completed take a few months to optimize your website for search engine. The reason that should be done is because just relying on pay per click (PPC) can be very expensive. You would be better off waiting until you are getting some search engine traffic.The main things in affiliate marketing are to not rush into it. Do your research and do not just rely on PPC advertising. Doing so will only waste your time and money and leave you frustrated in the end. |
