Newbie Needs Direction: Affiliate Product Marketing

by PGA
3 replies
Greetings,

For the past year I have started 6 affiliate websites, all concentrating on marketing informational products. I've been making small sales but I still consider myself a newbie. I'd like to market physical products. Can someone please point me toward a small course or information regarding physical product marketing. I'd like to find out how to set up a high converting website.

Thanks,
PG

    I promote both kinds of products (physical and info) and I don't find the marketing to be vastly different between the two. I am assuming you want to market these as an affiliate where you don't control the inventory and if that is the case the marketing is similar really. The bottom line, physical product or not, is that you need a highly visible top fold on your landing page where visitors can access what they want quickly.

    The biggest mistake I see affiliates make is hiding their links and having awful website navigation. You don't need to sell, you just need to point them in the right direction and often all that takes is easily understandable navigation. A basic landing page really only needs a top fold with a quick way to get to the merchant, high quality content in the body and a sidebar to get to every page of your site within one click. I follow these basic guidelines for both types of products with great success.

    I haven't been through the course myself so can't provide a review, but I know there is someone offering 8 weeks of one-to-one Amazon Associates coaching for $50, and has had rave reviews.

    Search for 'Amazon Associates' in the Warrior Special Offer Forum and I expect you'll find it pretty quick. Might be what you're looking for.

    Affiliate product marketing is not an easy job.As your are trying to making sales for your physical product,I think If you can make some investment for this though google adwords you can make some more sales.However you may use google website optimizer for higher conversion rate.
