Using Adwords to Sell Affiliate Products
.
If you find that your affiliate links are not as effective as you would like them to be, despite forum posting, article marketing and all that good stuff, its time to consider a new method. There is a new hype going around about using Adwords to sell your affiliate products and it is a pretty good idea. The whole thing is quite simple, really, and you will learn everything you need to right here in this article.
.
Affiliates can be notoriously difficult to sell. Most people join the program and never get anywhere. After a month or two without sales, they give up and quite trying. The few who do manage to earn money are excellent promoters and few and far between. You have a better chance of earning with your own business in most cases.
.
However, there are exceptions. You can actually use Adwords to get people to buy your affiliate products without having to do any promotion at all, it is all taken care of by Googles promotion package. You will have to pay a small amount, but since Google allows you to set your budget, you can keep your costs low until you have sold several affiliate products and earned enough to bump your budget up.
.
The whole thing is quite simple. You sign up for one or more affiliate programs and get the codes. This is usually easiest when you work through one conglomerate that brings hundreds of programs together under one roof, like Clickbank or ShareASale. You can take on as many affiliate products as you wish and market them.
.
First, you will need to sign up for a Google Adwords account if you dont already have one. This is extremely easy and only requires email verification before you are able to start pumping out ads. Your affiliate product will give you the inspiration for your ads. For example, if you are trying to sell an ebook on Ebay selling techniques, you might write an ad that looks something like this:
.
Earn Massive Cash Today, Ebay secrets that every reseller needs to know. You can earn on auctions.
.
You can experiment with different types of ads, aimed at different markets. The idea is to get people to click on the ad, of course. You will be able to specify a link for the ad and this should be your affiliate link. Put a simpler one in the link that will actually be shown with the ad, since they dont have to be the same and you dont want people to know that you are using affiliate links.
.
Now, you can set your price to as low as you want, even one cent per click, although this will probably take you out of the running! Instead, go for 5-10 cents a click and specify the amount you want to spend per day. If you want to, you can limit your ad to just three clicks per day! Start small and build up, $2-5 is a good daily amount to start off with.
.
From here, Google will take over, placing your ads on any relevant website that has AdSense as well as displaying them on the main search page whenever anyone looks at anything to do with Ebay. You pay only for the clicks that go through. The whole idea is that people will click because they are interested and hopefully buy the product through your affiliate link. Not a bad way to earn some cash with minimum investment.
