finally cracked it as an affiliate.

14 replies
Finally made it as an affiliate for clickbank. By the way I am not a Guru and even a tech expert. I don't even know how to do complicating words in IM like backlinking,serp,google zoo. I just promote my site and follow some instruction how to get traffic here in WF. But of course use your instict, don't just follow what is written here. Ask yourself do you think those method will work or not?. It's your own choice to decide.

WF is very good place on starting to make money online, but because of too much info you will et easily be confused or else information overload. My advice is stick to one only. If you like to learn affiliate marketing then stick to it. If you like cpa stick with it. And of course all members here have their diffeerent attitude they can even bash you or help you. But still don't be afraid to ask. Be kind even they are bashing you or say that you will not succeed. make it a motivation that you will succeed. If you find my post you will see what kind of a total newbie is me before. But now I still call myself a newbie but not totally anymore. Im still in the learning process but slowly but surely I am getting there.

Okay enough said and start how I do it. It may work for me but may not work for you.

This what I do for generating sales. I'll be honest sometimes I got 1 or 3 sale per day and some times none but atleast I am getting sales. My average sale is 7 sales per week.

The 1st month I did was researching keyword and write articles everyday in my notepad for 1 month. I've researced keyword phrase,keyword,researched details about the topics and save it my msword. (I do this because that time I don't have enough budget to buy domain and hosting. I don't want to waste every hours,days of my hosting for nothing. So idid this for preparation when I am ready to pay for hosting.)

For me domain is important.

How do I write my articles? I am lucky to have a friend that can proof read my artcles and rewrites inexchange for a cigarrete stick.

Promoting,Traffic whatever you call it.

I don't know seo at all onpage or even offpage. I just install mandatory plugins for wordpress and that it. I also add social media buttons and I thinks it's a must have.(AR I dont have it before when I am starting but I add it now for listbuilding).

My traffic source for free are

Youtube
Yahoo answers
Blog comments
Forum

I also rewrite my article each for blogspot,tumbler,hubpages,squiddo and etc. All of them are high traffic sites so I used them. My article consist of 500 to 1000 each article so when i rewrite it to web2.0 I use only 100 to 300 words and link it back to my original site. I rewrite each one of them but sometimes I just curate it and just add my reference.

If you have suggestion how to make me more sales or something I've missed please let me now. I would highly appreciate it.

    Despite not having a penny to rub together, you show determination, consistency, focus and resilience.

    You've developed a game plan based on probably the oldest , simplest and most proven model there is and made it happen.

    You'll go far.

    I also advice when you do signup for forums,commenting on blogs used your website name as a username, so you didn't need to write "please click the link to know more". If you used it and just interact with people naturally. They will think you are not promoting but helping them.

    It shows that a certain amount of hard work pays dividends. I'd suggest more web 2.0's, adding your videos to additional video sharing sites as well as YouTube. Using Document sharing sites.

    If you start making additional sales and can afford it start adding some High Pr Links from a reputable private blog network to your money site or lesser quality links to your web 2.0's.

    You've made a good start though and it is just about scaling things up.

    Proof that 'old school' methods still work if you're prepared to put the effort in.
    Well done.
    Any newbie can follow this approach and not jump from one shiny object to the next in pursuit of riches whilst forgetting that fundamentals still work.

    • So do you make a website that promotes a Click Bank offer and then link to that site in articles??:confused:

      Could you have a website that's a free blog instead so it's no cost until you know it's a good investment? Some people are going to criticize me for being/sounding cheap but I think others can relate too. I'm new to the ClickBank world so I'm just wondering.

    Dude that is AWESOME - congrats on the success. I always tell people internet marketing IS easy, you just need to put the right offer in front of the right people - and you'll make money.

    Traffic generation is easy, many people just get frustrated after a few days or a few weeks and quit before they make it.

    Nicely done!

    If you are averaging 7 sales a week, it sounds like you are doing better than most. My two main problems are keyword research and getting traffic. Sounds like you at least have somewhat of a grasp on those two areas.

    If you are just starting out and making 7 sales a week, I would say you are doing very good.

    The only thing I would add is to keep doing what you are doing, and see how that goes, and improve upon areas you get a better understanding of. In time, that should increase your sales numbers.

    It appears you are off to a good start.

    I think its a great start!. I think when you say cracked, it just means your using what has always worked. I think there is a return to simplicity and doing things the right way. short cuts only work for a limited time. good job and hope to hear more from you
