Affiliate marketing can generate serious revenue if done properly. To succeed, marketers must be willing to learn tricks of the trade through research and testing. They should track visitor data to determine best marketing efforts and have at least 30 pages of content to make their site look professional. Marketers should also find programs with lifetime commissions and dress professionally to feel like they are running a business.

1. Did you know that affiliate marketing is one of the most
overlooked and underused online marketing methods?
Done properly, it can pull in serious amounts of revenue!
We have presented some great information in this article
that will help you benefit from this marketing strategy.

2. A great affiliate marketing tip is to have at least 30 pages
of content on your web site. It's a good idea to have
many pages of content on your web site because it makes
your site look more professional. An ideal amount of
pages is 250.

3. To succeed in affiliate marketing, you must be willing to
learn and take the time to seek the information that is
going to help you make a profit. Unless you take the time
to learn all of the different tricks of the trade, you are
likely to fail and waste your time trying.

4. Keep track of as much data as you can about each visitor
that clicks through an affiliate link on your site. This
includes tracking which site they came from, how they
navigated around your site, which keyword they used to
find you, how long they stayed on your site and which
affiliate link they wound up clicking. Over time, you can
analyze this data to determine which of your marketing
efforts and site elements are giving you the best results.

5. If an affiliate program isn't working for you, try
something else. There are so many different affiliate
marketing programs out there that finding the one that
fits with your audience and your style takes some time.
Research ad testing into your page to track what is
working and what isn't it. Check your favorite products to
see if they offer affiliate marketing programs as well, you
aren't limited to just the big affiliate sites.

6. At least annually, perform focus groups with customers
and site visitors. Focus groups give you a chance to see
your audience and their physical reactions to your
products or services. You may find these focus group
members also have terrific new ideas that you would have
never thought of on your own!

7. Look at your website with a critical eye. Does it take way
too long to load? Does it look like it was built in 1990?
Poorly-placed navigation or amateur-looking graphics can
undermine buyers' impressions of your product. Invest
money in a web or graphic designer that knows how to
present your site's information in a way that appeals to
customers, rather than your business preferences.

8. Search out companies that offer a program with lifetime
commission. Some programs are only good for 60 days and
you won't receive commission after those days. You
should always read the terms of the program you are
signing up with to make sure you get the most for your
money.

9. Get dressed in business casual clothes every morning, in
order to make you feel like you really are running a
business. You will feel much more comfortable if you get a
business call and you're not answering it in your pajamas!
How you feel will reflect how your mind works, so if you
feel calm and collected you will be.

10. Surround the product that you are marketing with content
that won't date easily. For instance, if writing a
review, make sure you don't mention details that will
date it unnecessarily. This will mean that you'll be able to
keep earning from the same link over many years, as it will
remain relevant.

11. To wrap it up, not only did you learn the the fact that
affiliate marketing is one of the hidden treasures of
Internet marketing methods, but you also hopefully
learned some useful pointers, or at least reinforced
knowledge that you already had. Use the information in
this article on your way to success. Work clever, not just
hard!
