The 2 great tips for free affiliate marketing
1. Build a list:
The experts say, the “money is in the list”. But, this is not the whole truth. There are people with a list of 2000, who don’t make any money or just very little. And there are people with a very small list size that make a ton of cash. So what is the difference?
The difference is relationship and list age. You need a fresh list of people and you need to build trust with the people in it. So how do you do that? Well, you do that by providing value, and it has to be value that your list wants. Now here is the tricky part. How do you know what your list wants and how do you provide value?
Start by providing value and then attract the right kind of people. Giving value away for free it’s a great way to build relationships with your prospects.
So what kind of value should you provide? Well, first you have to choose a niche. The more specific you get, the more can you be sure you can provide the value your prospects are looking for.
After you have chosen a niche, you need to investigate what people in this niche are looking for. You can search Google, forums, articles, YouTube, etc.
Another way is using the Google keyword tool, to see what words your prospects are searching for.
You can offer them free reports, free audios, free videos. Go to YouTube and there you can find a ton of videos in any market you can think of. Get the embed code and paste the video code in your blog or website and within a second you have a free video for your subscribers.
Once you get an idea of the needs and wants in your niche you create information that will provide value by solving the problems of your target group.
Now all you have to do is give this information away in exchange for the prospects email. You can use forums, giveaway events, articles or YouTube to distribute your information.
2. Build a blog:
Another way of building trust is by blogging. Once again you use your blog to provide value. You can even put an opt-in form on your blog and capture emails in exchange for free information. Your blog posts serve two purposes.
First they should drive targeted traffic by being search engine optimized (SEO). For this reason you will need a SEO plugin for your blog (It’s Free)
Second your posts should provide real value. And again here you need to find and research a niche in order to attract the right people to your blog.
It is a fact that people buy from people they trust. Use your blog to brand yourself as a person who provide value, someone who really cares. Help your readers and give them solutions for their problems. Then there is no need to sell.
Your blog can be use as a review platform for the affiliate products you endorse. Make sure to buy the product yourself first an give an honest review. Also point out what the product is missing and try to provide the missing information.
So, now all you have to do is find a niche, research it, create value and find affiliate products to promote. This all sounds very easy to do but fact is many people fail in doing all this. The theory is vey easy but the practise is the difficult part.
