How to market your choosing product

First thing first
Having decided on the product you want to promote on a particular market platform. The first thing that needs to be done is to get your hoplink for that product. Hoplinks are unique URL that is created along with your nickname or username. It will uniquely identify the traffic that you send to the vendors product, so as to get credit for sale that comes through you. Example of a clickbank linking code is http://xxxx.product.hop.clickbank.net; where xxxx stand for your affiliate ID. Once you get this code, it can then be used within your marketing campaign.

Marketing Strategies
Marketing affiliate product on the internet can be done in variety of ways. There are two broad ways namely: 1. Direct linking and, 2. Indirect linking

Direct linking: This does not naturally convert higher as having your own webpage but it does convert as much as 1; 20 to 1; 60 for some product. The joy there is that it does not involve the stress and pains of having your own webpage or blog. This is done by simply inserting you link codes directly into your campaign and invariable take prospective buyers to the vendors sales page.

Indirect linking: This involves the use of websites/blogs (free or paid), this will serve a pre-sales page for the product. Your website/blog will just be used as a review page for the product and it is on your site that your hoplink/linking codes will be used.

Advertising Techniques
One thing is certain and unanimously agreed upon by all marketer (online or offline), advertisement is a must. There are lots of advertising techniques that can be used, some among which are:
1. PPC (Pay Per Click)

i. Create a review page that has at least three (3) products.
ii. Rate the products based on benefit, price, support, value, guarantee e.t.c; and rate yours (the one you are promoting) as the best.
iii. Put several links for your product and other merchant pages on your site, i.e you will have to register as affiliate for other products too because though your product will covert between 80-90%, other products will generate sales too.
iv. Drive high level, relevant and well targeted traffic to your site.

3. Forum Crawling
This is another free traffic for your product and website. It is an effective technique to generate sales at no cost. All you need to do is to look for forum(s) that are related to your product. For example if you are promoting a ‘DIET package”, all you need to do is go to google and search for ‘diet+forum’. There a lot of affiliate marketing forum that cab used out there.
The key to sales through forums is to make sure that you are relevant either by starting a thread or reacting to one and putting your affiliate links as signature at the end of your postings.

What you need to ensure is that your articles are spinned around your keywords. It makes sales for you both directly and indirectly.

6 COOL NICHE HUNTING STRATEGIES TO SOLVE YOUR NICHE PROBLEMS

There are thousands of Vendors on the internet that have affiliate products that are ready to be promoted, not all of them are promotable/profitable. To choose a product to promote, you have to find those that are in hot demand. This is called “Niche Marketing”.
I will let you in on some tools you can use to reveal over 500,000 niches that you can dwell into and get your bank account exploded within the next few months.
So, sit back, tighten your seat belt and get ready to learn how to find and bust up niches, the $1 million dollar marketer’s way.

What is a niche?
The word ‘niche’ is defined as: “A special area of demand for a product or service”. According to Wikipedia; a niche market is a focused, targetable portion (subset) of a market. In Affiliate Marketing, Niche Marketing is technique often used by affiliate marketers, by seeking out smaller segments of larger markets. There are an endless number of opportunities to become successful online, and anyone can make money if they spend some time leveraging niche research. There are 100,000’s of niches online, though I cannot cover this in this course, I promise to get it across to you in another format later.

How does niche process works?
Researching is the root of all successful marketing campaigns. Selling something is not difficult; getting buyer is the real problem. Getting the right niche only does not bring you money, you need to understand how the whole thing works; how do you turn a niche into money, and what should the flow look like between finding niche, understanding the industry and how to make money within a niche. The three components of niche marketing are:
- The audience (niche)
- The inform (connection between the niche and a product)
- The buy (what the people “buy”)

SO, the FLOW from the beginning to the end looks like this:
Find niche + Understand niche + Find Product to Promote + build Campaign = EARN $$$$

The niche hunting strategies are:
1. 590.000 niche markets
The largest human-edited directory on the web, listed over 590,000 niches, though many people did not realise this. This site gave free access to these niches and also gets them organised methodologically.
Here is the link to the site: http:www.dmoz.org

2. “STEAL” from competitors
Stealing? Yea, I want to teach you how to steal from others. You may not believe that whatever your niche is, several others are promoting it, so you have to know what they know, what they do, what they target and how they are targeting it. How do you get this information? By asking them? No! It’s by stealing form them. One of the best means of doing this is through this web page: http:www.semrush.com
Just type in the URL that you will like to steal from! A list of result will display the keywords that the website is listed under within the search engine. Use these keywords with your own and you are on the way to beating your competitors.

3. Start a romance with Microsoft
Where can you get the hottest news, a bunch of hot niche categories, a load of digital content (that can be leveraged) all in one place? Within the Microsoft Network, also referred to as MSN: http://www.MSN.com

4. The good old Google.com is still good

Or you are just planning to pay for one. STOP! Get these for http://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordTool/External
