Affiliate Marketing-What Should I Promote To Make Money?

Let's talk about making money with affiliate marketing. This seems kind of over stressing the theme, but it's not. You see, as an affiliate marketer the job involves promoting some product or service over the internet to make money. This is your goal, to make part time money or as your sole source of income. It is talked about and written about but when it comes down to it, especially for a new associate what is promoted and how?

That is literally the million dollar question. There are many ways to go about this.

Let's start off writing about a mailing list and a product or a service. You will hear once and again, "the money is in the list". This means that you need develope a mailing list of subscribers that have registered with you and have agreed to allowing emails be sent to them with information for products that are for sale or services. That simple. Now this is a targeted list of subcribers. That means that they have an interest in whatever you may be promoting and it may benefit them. This is your list and you can make money with it. You may ask, how to obtain this list. Well there are various ways:

1. You can join a free traffic exchange and send out email advertising with the expectation of people opting in with their name and email address. You have captured a lead.

2. You can have an opt in box on your website or blog with the expectation of visitors registering with their name and email address.

3. You can pay a company to send out advertising for you in order to obtain a subscriber list. You can then work with your subscriber list through an autoresponder sending out timely emails and offers for your service or product.

4. You can use the social networks to get people to opt into your subscriber list.

There are other forms of advertising that can be employed. Be creative and think how you can grow your list because this list will be your bread and butter. The larger your list and the more lists you have, the more successful you will be. . This is a great way to begin to grow your business and watch as success roles in.

Next, what should you promote to your list?

There are many products and services available that pay excellent commissions. For example you can promote your website that should be displaying different affiliate ads. Within this site there could be several products offering affiliate marketing commissions and products to your subscribers. They can join one of the programs or choose to promote them or both and regardless, you make a commission. It is a win win situation for all.

Remember that promotion takes repetition. You do not just email out once, nor do you post your ad only once. Repetition is the key. Just like a list and products can make you money, there are other ways to make money online. I hope this information was of help and as always, my best wishes to your success.
