What is affiliate
marketing?
Affiliate marketing has quickly become one of the most popular and the
most effective ways to advertise on the Internet. The premise of affiliate
marketing is very simple. A company, let’s say eBay, goes to another web
site and asks them to place a banner or link to eBay on their site. Every
time a user clicks on that eBay banner and visits the site, the owner of
the original site gets a commission. It’s as simple as that.
The history of affiliate marketing goes back to approximately 1994 with
the trailblazing music website www.CDNow.com. They were, as far as most
people know, the first site to pay other sites for directing Internet
traffic to them. Internet giant Amazon.com soon caught on and became the
site most associated with affiliate marketing. Today, the practice of
affiliate marketing is used by essentially every major web site in the
world.
Why affiliate marketing? One of the reasons that affiliate marketing has
proven to be so popular is that it is completely based on performance. In
most cases, the company doing the advertising doesn’t pay a single penny
to the site that is carrying their ad unless there is evidence that
Internet traffic has been driven to the advertising site. There are,
however, other ways of doing affiliate marketing.
Some advertising sites have paid the site hosting their link based not on
the number of times an original IP visits through the link, but on the
number of times the banner ad was “seen.” This method presents a whole
host of problems since things like hit counts can be forged and there is
no way to insure that just because someone visited a web page that had
your logo on it that they even saw it or if they did, that they even knew
what it was.
Other methods of affiliate marketing include paying only when a link is
followed AND some kind of transaction takes place. This can be tough on
the site hosting the link because the attention span of the average
Internet user isn’t long enough in most cases to follow a link and then
either complete a purchase, or fill out a form of some kind. The
conventional method simply pays a host a commission for every time an
original IP is directed to their site.
In a matter of only a few years, affiliate marketing has become one of the
most cost effective ways to drive traffic to a site. Since, in most cases,
both the advertiser and the host profit from the set up, there is no
reason to believe that affiliate marketing won’t be a dominant advertising
method well into the future.
What
are Two-tier affiliate sites?
Most
experienced web users are familiar with affiliate marketing and how it
works. You provide a link on your website and when someone follows it and
buys a product, you get a piece of the profit. It’s easy. But there is a
new way to make some serious bucks when it comes to affiliate marketing.
It’s called two-tier affiliate marketing. Don’t let the complicated name
fool you. It’s just as easy to make money from two-tiered marketing as it
is from the traditional style.
The way two-tier affiliate marketing works is that not only do you make a
buck or two when someone follows a link from your site and then buys a
product or service, but you also make a buck whenever someone follows the
link from your site and then signs up to become an affiliate marketer just
like you! It’s like getting double the profits for no extra work!
And the best part? It’s the gift that keeps on giving. Every time that new
affiliate marketer makes a sale of a product or service, you continue to
make a few extra bucks. Not only that, but when they get someone to sign
up for affiliate marketing, you get a piece of their profits too! It may
sound too good to be true, but it isn’t. If you can get a whole host of
people to sign up for affiliate marketing through you, you continue to
make money off of their sales as long as they are in the program.
And don’t worry about any legality problems. You’re selling legitimate
products and services so anyone that suggests that what you’re doing is
multi-level marketing is dead wrong. The set up may be somewhat similar,
but it is completely legitimate and you are rewarded on how good of a job
you do signing people up, exactly like a real job. You only make what you
earn!
And the best part of it all is there is no limit on how much money you can
make. If you are a wiz at getting people to sign up for affiliate
marketing through your site, the amount of commission you could be
chalking up is staggering. Two-tier affiliate sites might just be the best
and easiest way for you to run a business from home that is profitable and
has almost no hassle. So, what are you waiting for? Join up today and
start collecting commission now!
Is affiliate marketing
MLM?
Because affiliate
marketing works so well and seems to genuinely benefit both the website
that is advertising as well as the website that is hosting, people tend to
look for problems that just don’t exist. One of the “problems” that has
dogged affiliate marketing for years is the idea that is is a multi-level
marketing scheme.
What is multi-level marketing? It’s much better known as a pyramid scheme.
In most traditional cases, pyramid schemes are illegal. They work by
constantly signing up new people to sell a product that doesn’t actually
exist. The people at the top of the pyramid make money be collecting a
commission off of all the sales that happen below them in the pyramid
structure.
In recent years, pyramid schemes have tried to gain a bit of
respectability by offering legitimate products like phone cards that made
the whole operation legal. But, in essence, pyramid schemes are still
tainted by the perception that they are inherently dishonest and, unless
you start a pyramid scheme and are at the top of the pyramid, you’re
earning money for someone else.
Affiliate marketing is, in no conceivable way, multi-level marketing. In
most cases, a site that wants to advertise pays another site to direct
traffic to them. There are multi-level affiliate marketing set ups that
have one site direct traffic to another site and then that site directs
people to the site that pays both previous sites, but even in this case,
the customer isn’t tricked or misled and there isn’t any sort of financial
transaction that takes place, either. Multi-tiered affiliate marketing is
simply another way for web pages to create traffic and revenue.
The way earnings work for multi-level affiliate marketing is different
than a pyramid scheme, as well. Is it true that in the end, the site that
is being linked to makes the most money? Sure, but that’s because they are
the ones offering the product or service. The other sites are simply
steering customers to them. With multi level affiliate marketing, everyone
makes money and assuming a legitimate good or service is being sold at the
end of the path, the consumer ends up happy, too. It can be a little
confusing for those new to Multi level affiliate marketing to tell the
difference between it and a pyramid scheme. But rest assured the two have
very little in common, most importantly the fact that almost all pyramid
schemes are illegal while multi level affiliate marketing is quite legal
and a very effective tool in Internet advertising,
Affiliate marketing, a business with no hassle
For many people, the
lure of working from home is too strong to resists. Being able to set up
your own hours, your own schedule and your own your speed is an extremely
attractive way of living to most people. But the thought of setting up
your own web-based business can be a huge hassle. You have to have a web
design, a product and then you have to sell it, ship it and handle
customers. A much easier way to work from home and run a web-based
business is called affiliate marketing.
Setting up a site that works as an affiliate marketing site isn’t really
that hard. There are many different web-page building programs out there
that walk you through every step of the process. Once you have a
functional web site, you need to come up with a list of companies that
will pay you to link to them. Many major websites like Amazon have an
affiliate program that you can join and then get paid for simply linking
to their website.
But if you really want to cash in, you don’t want a webpage with just a
list of links on it. This may earn you a buck or two, but when most web
surfers stumble upon these kinds of pages after a Google search, they tend
to get frustrated and leave. The best route for you to go is to provide
interesting web content that relates to the company you’re linking to. If
you can’t write interesting web content yourself, there are many companies
that will do it for you for a very reasonable price. Once you’ve got your
content, you can weave your links throughout it. People will find your web
page on search engines like Google, Yahoo and Ask.com and when they see
the well-written content, they will hang around and read what’s on your
site. They will, in most cases, click on the links provided and you’ll be
counting the cash in no time flat.
