Promoting Your Affiliate Link For Easy Quick Ways to Make Money Online

In my last post, I went through the steps to pick a product that you can reasonably expect to make a profit from on a monthly basis. In this post, we'll be picking up from the last post and going through a few ways to promote, for free, your affiliate link.

First, you need to have your "hoplink" ready and available and a list of "keywords" that would describe the product or website that you will be promoting.

A very good place to get those keywords will be the product site you will be promoting. If you search for the term "Adwords keyword tool" you'll come to an ad or entry that you can click on to get to the Adwords keyword tool.

When your page loads, on the left hand side, you will see "How would you like to generate keyword ideas?" Under that, there will be two choices, "descriptive words or phrases" and "website content". You want to click on "website content".

In the middle of that page, you will see a space to type in the URL for the website you will be promoting. Place your hoplink there, check the "Include other pages on my site linked from this URL ", and click on "get keyword ideas".

It may take a minute or so to create a list, be patient.

Your list loads and you see a few pages of keywords that relate to the product you are promoting because they were found FROM THAT SITE! You can't miss with those keywords, they are definitely targeted towards the site you are promoting.

Now (hint, hint) Google is telling you the importance of the keywords you have there by the order they are in. Google is telling you in black and white that the keywords towards the top of the list are more important to them than the ones on the bottom, so the recommendation is to use a handful of the keywords that are placed on the top of that list to use in the ads you will be placing to promote the website.

OK, you have a link (your hoplink) and you have some highly targeted keywords. Now you need to go to a few advertising sites to promote your link.

I am going to recommend USfreeads as they are known to be "google friendly" and they have a free option. There are many, many other free advertising sites out there and I would recommend that you google "free advertising" and pick out 10-15 of them, sign up at their sites, and places free ads at each of them.

Don't forget places like BackPage and Craigslist, as there are TONS of people on those sites everyday looking for items.

You may want to sign up at a few traffic exchanges (known as TE's) - just google "traffic exchanges" and you will get a huge list to pick from. Again, you can sign up on those for free, you place YOUR site on their rotator and every time you view someone else's site, someone else will be viewing yours.

Technically, you are not spending money, but you are spending time, so you need to decide if these are for you or not.

Don't forget the importance of having a "signature file" on your emails. Place your name and your link telling your friends what you are promoting, you will get some clicks from people reading your emails.

There are lots of paid ways to advertise your site(s), but I really do recommend you getting your feet wet by using all the FREE ways you can find, because there are lots of them out there.

Happy Advertising!

There Are Many Options When it Comes to Easy Quick Ways to Make Money Online

When it comes to easy quick ways to make money online, I think you'll find most people will point to affiliate marketing, with good reason.

Right off the bat, you can skip quite a few steps, and, if you are a beginner, that's a good thing.

You don't have to worry about creating a whole new product and having it all set up as a selling package and you don't have to worry about a merchant account and how you are going to get paid. It's all done for you. You just need to pick a product and promote it to start making money.

Picking a product...

Well, to make it easy, we'll pick Clickbank since it is one of the easiest and fastest, don't forget free, places to sign up to get products to promote. So you go to Clickbank.com and click on "sign up". There will be a few places to fill in your personal information, verify the account, and then you are ready to start looking inside of Clickbank.

At the very top, click on the word "marketplace". This will bring you to where you will start choosing what type of product you want to promote. If you don't have a predisposed idea of which category you want to promote, you may want to click on "all categories" to see if something different catches your eye.

"Product Type" I usually keep at "all products" and "sort by" I usually like to see either "popularity" or "high gravity". Popularity would be the items that are, of course, more popular to sellers and high gravity just means how much of the product people are selling. High gravity means it sells well, low gravity means that it doesn't sell very well. Just a small point on gravity, if the item is new, the gravity may not have had a chance to rise very high "YET", so glancing at how long the product has been on the market may be a good idea.

"Language", of course, just pick which language you want everything in. Press "go".

Now this is where you want to start weeding out programs that you are not interested in from those that are a "maybe". Have a pad of paper available so you can jot down notes while you are doing this. You just may end up with a few items that would work for you to promote or you may only have the one, but you want all the information in one place.

Look at each of the product's % of sale. My recommendation is you should be looking at at least 50% commission for each sale. Look at what the actual amount of that sale will be. Five dollars for a commission may be worth it for some people (especially if you can get lots of sales per day), but you will be putting the same amount of effort into promoting something you get paid $30 as you do for $5. My recommendation is to stick to items that will at least pay you $15 per commission or more, preferably more!

It's also worth a few seconds to look at the percentage of returns. If there is a high rate of returns (meaning that people ask for their money back after a few days or weeks) you might want to keep on looking at other products instead. You want to keep your money, not plan on giving it back once you have it.

Take a second to look at the website! This is something so many people don't do! They pick their products strictly from the numbers available. If the website doesn't look good, doesn't flow, doesn't have a good feel, looks sloppy, lots of typos, move on! There are too many products out there for you to be promoting something that will tell others that you don't care that you promote something that's sloppy looking. You don't want to start your business giving out that impression.

Ok, by now you should have at least one product, if not quite a few, to promote. Pick ONE to start with, just pick one out of your list that you have a good feel for, and click on the "create hoplink" link at the bottom of the entry you'd like to promote. Copy the "hoplink" Clickbank will provide for you and you are ready to promote that product.

That's all you need to do to pick a product to promote so you can start earning money every month.

Happy Promoting!
