Affiliate Marketing And How To Manage Your Ppc

By: Kirt Christensen

How can you build wealth by using affiliate marketing and pay per click? You do that by not just sending the traffic on to your affiliates to get the commission but by building your own assets at the same time.

While going through the process of getting visitors to your site, have a 'product' of you own available for your customers, something individual to your site. Compile contact information from these visitors as often as possible. Then point them in your affiliate's direction.

By tradition, if you can make a tradition in 5-6 years, affiliates will display banner ads or other links, purchase pay per click and other traffic, then send the traffic directly on to their affiliate hoping that this will produce a sale and therefore a commission.

We call people who do that "bitslingers." They buy traffic and get the dollars from it, but nothing else. They add nothing of value to the mix. They're just brokers of clicks, and little more. Want to be more than just a bitslinger? Build an asset, a customer list you can communicate with again and again.

How can you get unique item of value to proffer? These are some good suggestions:

Proffer an informative tutorial.

Offer a webinar on a subject that is compatible with, and flows to the affiliate product/service that you are touting.

Advertise a free e-course related to the affiliate product then offer the affiliate product through it.

Make available at no cost a guide or reference 'paper' on the subject.

If you're promoting multiple competing programs, offer to show people a price and quality comparison and let them choose for themselves.

Make an MP3 recording on your topic.

Hold a contest.

Furnish some type of downloadable software.

It is important that you refrain from screaming, "buy this!" to your customers. Give them something they can use to improve their business or life then they will want to see what product you are offering.

In days gone by all you had to do was buy clicks from Google and herd them through your links to your affiliate hosts site. These hosts love it especially when they have nearly all of the advertisements on the page pointing to them.

Problem is that Google didn't think that was so great. These strong-arm arrangements messed up the process of Adwords and thus Google took a hit to their image. Thus came the Google revolution at the beginning of 2005. The rule now stands that one ad display url is allowed per page of Adwords listings per advertiser.

This does not mean, however, that you can't have your affiliates showing up on the same Google results page as you. It simply means that they can't just buy traffic and send it straight to your web site.

Therefore you, if you're an affiliate for another host, or your affiliates have to create some unique and solid content for the webpage your visitors land on if you want to flourish. With this you have a win/win situation. Your site adds richness to the internet and your visitors add to your client base.
