Putting Contact Form On A Niche Site

by Alan Petersen
3 replies
Hello there,

I always put a contact form on my affiliate marketing niche sites. And I've been getting emails asking about "my software" or product when in reality it's just a affiliate niche site. I always respond but that takes time. So I was wondering if any other affiliate marketers here put a contact form on their sites? It's not like I'm getting flooded with messages but I get enough now that I'm re-thinking having a contact me form for these type of sites.

What are your thoughts on this?

Thanks.

    Unless you have reason to believe that answering people's questions actually makes you money overall (ie, people buy through your affiliate link who otherwise would not have), you're probably better off dropping the contact form...

    The only exception I can think of is if you're branding your own name in the niche and your opinion carries some weight with the readers, meaning that your personal endorsement/answer is likely to push them into purchasing. Otherwise you're just a free help desk for somebody else if it's just basic product questions you're answering. :-)

      Hi Alan,

      It would depend on the site really.

      I haven't had too many end user comments or questions but I have had a good number of people contact me to buy advertising on my sites. Basically I include a contact form on my portal/authority sites that have decent PR and leave it off of my smaller sites.


      All The Best,


      Tony

    HI Alan,

    my advice is to watch what people are asking you and use that to build site content and an faq page.

    over a short period of time you will notice that you get the same questions over and over.

    also when you respond you can drive them to your offer again its a great converter.
