Affiliate programs are companies that offer a profit or commission to website owners to advertise on their site to increase the companies sales.

An affiliate is a website owner who is paid commission to advertise a product or service on their website.

Affiliates programs are one of the easiest ways to make money
in the internet. Small fortunes have been made for smart people
who have taken advantage of this powerful marketing technique.

This tips intend to help you on your way to become a
high-earning affiliate champion, use it as a guideline to your
success. Feel free to contact me if you need further information.

1. First thing first: Target your market. If you try to sell
everything to everyone, you will sell nothing.

2. Choose the right program. Everyday you would find hundreds
of new "get-rich-quick" programs on the net. Avoid them!
Before joining any program, do some research. Trust only
programs that have been consistently paying their affiliates

3. Join one program at a time, stick to it. Avoid distractions
joining several programs at the same time. Stay focused on
the best program chosen.

4. Promote, promote, promote!. I cant empathize enough.
Promotion is the lifeblood of your program's success. Focus
on marketing and nothing else. One easy way to promote is
by joining a traffic exchange program, like traffic swarm.

5. Write your own classifieds ads, headlines, text links.
BE CREATIVE. How many times have you seen the same old add
given for an affiliate program! Stay away from the crowd.

6. Create a content website with a review of your affiliate
program. Don't try to sell the program, instead, give your
visitors the best review you can write of the program. Make
a bulleted list of benefits YOU have found on that program.

7. Refer to your program's web site with a TEXT LINK. Avoid
using banners. People tend to look banners as a sales pitch
and doesn't like it. People in your site are looking for
information, not to buy. So give them some information. Make
them want more information, then give them your text link.

8. Compile your own mailing list. Offer your visitor a freebie,
a newsletter, a free e-book, a report... In exchange, ask for
their contact info. The key here is to get their address.

9. Follow up with this list. Contact them at least once a week.
Build trust. Make them know you and trust you.

10. Track your advertising results and make corrections as
necessary. If the program is good, you can profit from it.
Do whatever it needs to be done to achieve you goals.

When someone registers with Bravenet and becomes an active member you earn $1. It is free to register and they offer free web hosting, blogging, and lots of great tools.
