Posted by: emarketinghandbook on: November 24, 2009

Actually, there are several ways to get sales from an affiliate program and i’ve been used it before. One of them was writing review for the product that you’re trying to promote. There are 2 ways to review product :

1. get the product an look into it

This is the most powerful way to review the product, because you own it and used it. But, i’m sure it needs money to buy the product. If you have limited budget, you don’t need to do this. There are some other ways to review a product. If you insist to use this method, you can try to search about the promotional event from the program by joining their mailing list, or you can search it from google.

2. Analyze the product.

This is the free method. But, this method quite powerful to do.There are several step you must do with this method. first, look at the feature from the product that you trying to promote, this can be used to convince your targeted visitors. second, look for the forum that related to your product and asked a question about the product in the forum. this will give you information about the product quality. by the way, The first method is the best because you can review the product by your own, because if you look opinions outside, the competitors often try to give negative review about the products.

One last thing, Make sure the products that you trying to promote are hot niche!

Some people asked “What do i need to do email marketing campaign?”. Well, i have several tips about this. First, you must have targeted email list. If you don’t have any email list, you can try to build the new one. but, this is not easy if you don’t have any website or blog. Don’t buy email list from third party company. it’s useless and you only receive untargeted market from it. If you buy email list, you will be considered as spammer , since you send email that the user don’t want it. The last thing is the sales word for your email. This is important since your sales will depend on it. Many people confused about how to create a promotional words. But, i think it’s not so very hard. why? you can achieve it by practice. How? it’s simple but it needs process. search for other affiliate product that related to your promoted product and use their sales page to create your own promotional words. there is no instant process to become success. you must workhard and learn from what you have do.

3. PPC marketing

But, if you are new in internet marketing, this method is not easy to do. If you do it in wrong way, you will only waste your money. So what you need to get successful campaign? There are several things you need to have and do, like landing page for your affiliate product, keyword research for your ppc campaign. What is landing page ? the simple way to explain is a landing page is the first page that your visitor see when they arrive to your website. The important point about landing page is the word you use in your landing page, You need to be creative when you build a landing page. You can also use landing page to build an email list using autoresponder. the second thing is keyword research, in my previous post i have tell you about using google keyword tool to get keyword, but not all keyword in there can give you the targeted visitors that you expect. You need to be specific about keyword building. For example, if you build your own keyword list, use very specific keyword about your product, use term about your product that many people use it. You can search about specific terms about your product with google. Finally, Don’t bid too high for a keyword and manage your cash flow. See about this in my other post in PPC section.

What do you need to do PPC campaign ?

Posted by: emarketinghandbook on: June 22, 2009

There are 2 possibilities when you want to run PPC campaign. First, you have your own website and product to sell, or you become affiliate in an affiliate network like clickbank, commission junction,etc. If you have your own affiliate website, you can do some SEO for your website. I have post about some basic SEO tips before. In the other side,  you as an owner have advantage in keyword research and competition because you will know which keyword that convert with your campaign, since there are no competitor when you launch your affilate website. This is important for your Internet business. At last, you will have your own profitable keyword list, share this list with your affiliate partner. you may ask, “Why i should do this?” Because your affiliate partner will get benefit from it, and you will boost your sales.

The second case is you become affilate for other people products. If you promote hot products that convert well, you may compete with many other affiliates. It is important that you create your own landing page for the product that you promote. Do some optimization for your landing page so search engine will know your landing page.  Use google keyword tools to build your own keyword list for your landing page. Keep watching your campaign to know which keyword that converts well, so you can optimize your campaign and save money for running your future campaign.

PPC practice

Posted by: emarketinghandbook on: June 21, 2009

Yesterday, i have met my friends who try to learn about Internet marketing. He asked me about how to do PPC marketing that generate huge income. He tried to do some campaign with adwords and lost 100 dollars in single day. He shocked and stop his campaign immediately. Then, I told him about several things that he must concern when running a campaign. I will share this in here with several tips for running a PPC campaign.

1. First of all, you must know how much money you want to spend in a month for PPC campaign. This is important, because you don’t want to lose your money without any results, right ?

2. If you running campaign for a month, money management is a crucial thing. If you have 300$ budget for a month then you can divide it by 30, so you got $10. That is your maximum budget for a day in your PPC campaign. don’t even try to increase your budget if you don’t get any result or you will lost much money.

3. If you just started to do some PPC campaign. The best practice is to drive traffic to your own website, or if you don’t have any website you can drive traffic to your blog. pick some keyword for your blog and run a campaign.

4. Watch your campaign. If you have good CTR and your blog visitors increased, it’s a good thing. But it doesn’t mean that you will get huge profit with other website that you try to promote. Keyword is important for PPC campaign.

5. As a start, you can use google keyword tool to search for good keyword. If you can drive a lot of traffic to your website with low CPC. you can try to promote other website or affiliate program.

Apple release Safari 4.0

Posted by: emarketinghandbook on: June 19, 2009

On June 9, Apple release new version of their browser, Safari 4. Here some features about their new browser :

- Nitro engine (it is claimed that Safari 4.0 can run 4,5 times faster than their previous version and other browser)

- Top sites and Full History search

- Cover flow

- Support HTML 5

- Support Advanced CSS Effects

I have try this browser for a while. It seems lighter than it’s previous version when loading a web page. But, compared to Firefox, it’s not too significant in loading times. Safari can handle javascript very well with their nitro engine and more stable than firefox. Safari also more stable than firefox, because firefox 3 still have issue about this.

Wanna try the new Safari 4.0 ? Download Here
