Top 5 Mistakes Most Affiliate Bloggers Make
These are 5 common mistake make most frequently by almost every affiliate blogger. Read on and ask yourselves do you make this mistake.
Mistake 1: They do not research and find the best affiliate programs to promote, so they do it all..
Most bloggers have absolutely no idea how to research and find “great” affiliate programs to promote. By “great” I mean:
- Products that convert to sales well and pays well
- Products that bring some value to the customer
- Products that have a long life and can be promoted for ages
The reason is simple: They have no idea what their readers want, therefore they have no idea what they readers would buy online.
As a result, they promote just about everything under the sun and make pennies, when they could be just promoting a handful and make a six figure income from them..
Mistake 2: They track nothing, so they have no idea what works and what’s just a waste of time..
Most affiliates I’ve talked to are basically shooting in the dark.
They put up their affiliate links all over their blog pages and everywhere else on the internet, and never look at it again. Sure, this is the easy way to do it, but it also means you have no idea what works and what doesn’t!
From my research I’ve discovered that all the super affiliates do one thing religiously: they track, track and track some more!
Since they track everything, they know which affiliate programs are working for them and dedicate more of their resources to making more sales with it. The ones that didn’t work are just thrown out of the window, and they cut their losses early..
Now tell me honestly, do you track your links?
If you don’t, then my special link tracking system will revolutionize your marketing forever.
Mistake 3: They have no idea how to “pre-sell” visitors and convince them to make the purchase..
“Pre-selling” is a classic, time-tested affiliate marketing tactic that works like magic.
The sad part is, only the super-affiliates have mastered this art and they use it to completely dominate the market, stomping over all the other too-nice-to-sell-anything type of bloggers..
Most bloggers think all they have to do is provide great content, and they could not be more wrong! The truth is, if you want to sell affiliate products like the super affiliates do, you need to learn how to pre-sell your customers and create a buying decision before you even send them to a product page.
Pre-selling is not creating a sales pitch! It’s about getting into your customer’s mind and understanding what they want, then telling them how the product you’re recommending might just be what they’re looking for!
Face the facts — if you’re not doing it then someone else is, and they’re getting all your money.
Mistake 4: They fail at getting free search engine and social bookmarking traffic..
Search Engine Traffic is great for one reason above all: IT’S ABSOLUTELY FREE!
Hundred of thousands of potential visitors waiting to find your blog, yet you have no idea how to get them..
Most blogger’s I’ve met either know nothing about Search Engine Optimization - or they think they know “too much” about it - but in either cases they fail miserably at getting their website to rank high in the search engines..
In Super Affiliate Blogger I teach you everything you need to know about SEO and how to get massive search engine traffic..
Mistake 5: They buy Pay-Per-Click (PPC) traffic but have no idea how to convert it like a pro..
This is perhaps the biggest mistake I’ve seen people make.
They dish out hundred of dollar per day and send PPC traffic to their blogs! They don’t use landing pages at all and as a result, they get ugly conversion rates and waste all their hard-earned money..
