Today I want to share with you an interesting and profitable way
to make money on the internet with very low efforts: affiliate
marketing.
Affiliate Marketing is a popular method of promoting web
businesses in which you are rewarded for every visitor,
subscriber and customer provided through your efforts, much like
the practice of paying finder's-fees for the introduction of new
clients to a business. Compensation may be made based on a
certain value for each visit (Pay per click), registrant (Pay
per lead), or a commission for each customer or sale (Pay per
Sale), or any combination of the three.
Affiliate marketing works well for both the company selling the
product and the affiliate because both parties make money in the
process and each helps the other become more successful.
First, let's take a look at the overall concept of Affiliate
Marketing. The process starts when a company has a successful
product to offer. The company will build a web site and offer
that product to the consumer. The next hurdle the company has to
overcome is getting web traffic to their site. After all, they
can have a kick-butt product but if nobody knows about it, they
won't make a dime. This is where you, the affiliate marketer
comes into play.
When you signup for any affiliate program, you will receive a
special link that keeps track of the visitors you refer as an
affiliate. Now, your main goal is to redirect as much targeted
traffic as you can so you can raise your profits. There are two
ways for this: you will have to build a web site that generates
traffic and then "refer" part of that traffic to a partner
company, or you can buy targeted traffic from a reliable source
and redirect it to the website you are affiliated with. At
Revisitors.com, we have thousands of online entrepreneurs that
buy our targeted traffic (starting at $19,95) and redirect it to
an affiliate website, earning MUCH MORE than their investment.
The return on investment (ROI) for this type of opportunity is
usually very high, and it's definitely worth a try.
The most common way to earn money by referring people to a
website as an affiliate is the Cost Per Lead (CPL) commission
structure. This is also the most used method by customers who
buy Revisitors targeted traffic and redirect it to the website
they are affiliated with. A CPL program is advantageous because
you simply need to convince your traffic to provide their
information to your partner company. In other words, a cost per
lead affiliate program will pay for each person or "lead" that
is referred to your partner's web site. A Lead is any personal
information that a visitor submits to a company for the purpose
of allowing the company to solicit their product or services.
Here is a rough example: Let's say that a company offering a
"make money with affiliate marketing ebook" makes an average of
$50.00 profit from each sale made on their web site. They know,
based off of web site statistics and sales, that one in four
customers will buy their product or "convert" as it is commonly
referred to. They can then offer an affiliate a certain amount
of money (we will use $20.00 for our example) for each person
they refer to their web site that generates a lead. So, if an
affiliate gets 100 people each month to click on an ad and fill
in their information on the company's web site they would make
$2000.00. The company would have made $5,000 from the referrals
and it will have only cost them the $2000.00. Again, both the
company and the affiliate succeed in with this method because
the company has extra sales it would not have had without the
home based affiliate business and the affiliate gets paid for a
product they do not manage or own. Now, I don't know about you
but as for myself, I don't mind having an extra $2000.00 each
month from a website that maintains itself. Imagine having
10 web sites that all do the same thing for different affiliate
programs.
