Ok to start off yes affiliate marketing you can make a few bucks. I am not totally convinced that you can reap in the rewards that you would if you had your own product or program and hooked it up your self via click bank or Affiliate junction or any of the others but…….
That is not what this is about the profiteers legit or not that feed off the aged portion of sociality. Some of these companies and people feed off the elderly! The people that never had the luxury to even have a cell phone, never mind the computer and ipads or ThinkPad's or whatever. Some companies or programs get these people and sell them a bunch of BS not that they can’t make money on the web is that they are socially out of sink on the internet. I am not talking about people who are stupid I am talking about people that in there career they were firemen , or police or nurses or tradesmen. They may have run there own store with out the need for mass marketing! They get pulled in by the hype they want to be productive they may be living on a fixed budget and need the extra money that they are told will fly in to there accounts magically….
Now could they make a great internet business with some information and training yes. But with Facebook ,Twitter, Google, YouTube only to name a very few that are used for mass marketing never mind having a blog or site to collect names and emails for email marketing.. The bottom line to making money on the internet is traffic lets face it that's why we go to all these sites and set up accounts. You need a few essentials that they are not being really explained to most people despite there age. online off line simple equation traffic = profit and targeted traffic = greater potential for more profit. That's the easy part of the equation how to get the traffic is the other part and its not as easy as most make you think it is. I just want to break down what you need to think about one way or the other to make money off the internet lets say food for thought. People that are making real money on the internet have thought about this like I said in one way or the other and have ether spent the time to address them or paid someone else too.
Product , program or service they all target specific individuals lets face it in any sort of selling its much easier to sell something to someone who is looking for what you have to sell!! The biggest supper affiliates are the ones selling information and training on how to market your product, program, eBook, service or whatever!
ok now back to what you need to know and are not being told when you join up with some programs (well most of them and all of the flybys ) what type of traffic do you want? how to get that traffic and were to post your ad link banner or whatever it may be. why you need a email list! how to build one! were to look for targeted markets, a simple thing like a signature line in an article , blog post ( what's a blog and how to use them.) how to tell if a product is selling and who is buying it.(most times if you think about it common sense) How to advertise on Facebook , Google what are the cost , what works best, Twitter ect….. lots of information out there for sure but if you don’t know you need to be looking for it not likely you will find the right info by chance.
The bottom line is knowing what information you need and then learning how to utilize it is the answer to success. But people are not being told listen yes you can make money but this is what you will need to pay for or do your self. The best sales or the ones that you don’t need to sell… All you need to do is learn how to drive the internet targeted traffic to what ever offer you have that's affiliate marketing in a nut shell. more maybe later…………………….
