3 Ways To Guide Referrals in Earning Money

Tags: , , ,

There are some websites that provide referrals to earn money in certain affiliate marketing programs you have joined. Most affiliate programs you will join usually have the “refer a friend” option. But we know that most of our referrals are not serious on what they’re doing in order to earn, so it requires motivation or else they will quit. Usually they need guidance from their referrers. Here I have listed how to guide our referrals in earning money through these programs?

1. If you have referred them to join a site through the referal link on your website or blog, make sure you always leave your contact e-mail address or instant messenger ID for them to contact you aswell. Oblige them to contact you immediately along with their usernames by putting a message in your blog post or any parts of your website. This will then atleast capture their email to get there attention over regular newsletters and certain reminders.

2. Make sure that you know how the system works in any affiliate program you are associated with, so that you can teach them what you have applied right now. When you study how the system works and are totally satisfied this will show them when you suggest to them how passionate you are when explaining. Don’t refer until you know how the system works, because sometimes there is also an investment needed on their part, so the better you explain and recommend the better it will be for them to want to join. If they know the system, oblige them to do the same on what you have taught them, and let them teach it to others.

3. Motivate them regularly, showing them also how much you have earned privately or openly whatever you feel comfortable with and show them that they too can be earning just like this. When they see actual proof then this really ensures that that it is possible and will always have this pictured earning in their mind and is usually the driving force to keep them going.

These tips will gladly help you in making your referrals active, through guiding them in earning money on different make money streams around the corner. Best of all it’s going to make you potentially rich, by helping them getting richer too.

One of the best video revenue sharing program that exists right now,  You make 100% of the revenue that is generated on your video pages. I recently signed up to get in on the action, here you can see my account. But the idea is to add lots of videos to get people watching them and clicking on your ads.

It’s free to join and there is no cost for you to advertise your products and services, or to even promote CPA offers if you like. Flixya is a real attraction, and it can handle as many customers as needed. They also have honest customer support which all of the questions, suggestions, inquiries and problems being sent to them are answered and resolved if possible.


Make Money with Video Revenue using Flixya

Flixya is associated with one of the top ad revenue sharing programs in the internet right now, and I’m talking about Google Adsense. All you have to do is to include your Google publisher code in your profile and there you have it! Your Google ads are live and you can make money while they read and click your Google ads. But since there are so many members there, who post as many blogs as they want, how you are sure that you will get more page views as they are?

Blogging is one of the basis of attracting your readers, and it will potentially make you some hard cold cash! This is why Flixya has this kind of feature to allow the bloggers to taste the opportunity of making money while using Flixya, as long as the ads are running. However, if your Google Adsense account is been disabled or suspended, you have no chance to gain revenue here in Flixya, except your links that are promoted in your blog which has a chance of gaining more traffic, sales and leads on your respective CPA and other affiliate programs like NetPartner, Clickbank, Amazon, etc.

No matter if you have Google ads or not, you still make money here and become popular with the support of your CPA and other affiliate marketing programs. Flixya is one of the best programs to make money, and it’s truly recommended for everyone, even if you’re retired.

Why Do We Need Affiliate Marketing?

Tags: , , , ,

The reason why we need affiliates is to earn huge amount of money for our own needs and wants. Affiliates are now considered as one of the huge making money portals in the internet. Since it was practiced in the late 90’s, affiliate marketing was truly developed with the likes of Clickbank, CJ.com and many other networks. Now you can see that there are many affiliate networks which exist throughout the world, and it’s still growing. We need affiliates because of money, and it’s one of the reasons that more millionaires have been created for just simply using affiliate marketing for their own website or blog. Not all of the make money online streams are easy, because everybody knows that everything starts from the bottom and to be successful you must work hard for it. It may take either months or years to build up your website or blog. There are different types of affiliate programs which you can count on, in order to earn money:

1. Pay-per-sale – this affiliate marketing option lets you earn while the user purchased a product on the ad you promoted to your own website or blog. Some programs that are implementing this program are Clickbank, Amazon, CJ, ShareASale, etc. You will gain percentage for every sale you generated in your account which you use your own affiliate link, together with your affiliate ID on the banner, widget or the link itself.

2. Cost-per-action (CPA) – this affiliate marketing option lets you earn while they sign up on a program either for free period, trial period or full period. This is one of the fastest making money schemes on affiliate marketing which the customer itself called as a lead. The lead must be valid from a unique IP address which they click on your ad and sign up for a program. Some of the programs used this method are the likes of NetPartner, ELeadMedia, T3Leads, PepperJam, Azoogle, etc.

3. Pay-per-download – this affiliate marketing option lets you earn while they download a file on any form in the ad they clicked on your website or blog. It means when a visitor clicks your ad on the website or blog and downloaded the file, you get paid. All you have to do is to attach your own banner, text link or contextual ad and let it roll on your website or blog. An example of a pay-per-download program is HotFile.

Now we have three types of affiliate marketing schemes mentioned above. If you would like to run your own affiliate program you can sign up as an advertiser or merchant (not publisher) with networks such as cj, clickbank, azoogle and many others. Or you can run your own affiliate program, I use and recommend iDevDirect, I use them for one of my sites GSEO.net/affiliate.

Now once you have set this up the only thing to do in order to run your website or blog all along is by using search engine optimization (SEO), that makes you build backlinks and earn lots of traffic from them. Without SEO, your site or blog will not run for long and you will not generate any sales from them, so in order to benefit the most we need powerful search engine optimization and online marketing traffic sources. Good Luck!

8 Reasons Why Most Affiliate Marketers Fail?

Tags: , , , , ,

There were lots of questions out here for most affiliate marketers around the world. I have been checking out some of the e-books of affiliate marketing and most of them saying “Why 75% of the affiliate marketers fail?”, or even more than that. It was interesting to study and find answers on the success and failures of the affiliate marketers today. This is why I asked this question to my topic, “Why most affiliate marketers fail?” Is it really true that most of them failed? Yes! I agree that most of them failed because of many reasons and I think most of them were basic enough for me, and it should be stand corrected from now on.

Here are some of the reasons why most affiliate marketers fail in their business?

1. Huge competition – if you take a look around you, there are more competitors that are battling themselves on the top spot of the search engine rankings. So if you just ignore it and did not learn mostly on how affiliate marketing really works for us, you will definitely fail. If they fail, that means they give up on their dreams and they don’t continue to fight. However, if you still have the guts to fight and compete with the huge competitors around you, it may give you a better chance that you can be a big threat to them by learning more about affiliate marketing and to practice yourself.

2. Lack of discipline –  if you are not applying a self-discipline yourself, this is another reason that affiliate marketers fail on their business. It will be in effect when you are not really motivated to yourself and lack of focus on your work. It may happen when you are in the middle of the work, you have done something else that is outside of your work like watching Youtube, playing online games, chatting ,etc. You must not tempt yourself to make yourself useless, because it will only distract you and may lose your attention in working with your business through affiliate marketing.

3. Lack of time management – if you have less time doing this, let’s say only 1-2 hours per day, you will not gain any success of your performance in affiliate marketing. One advantage that is specifically relied by most affiliate marketers is the time management. However, we don’t have to waste our time by doing useless things but instead try to focus on what you’re doing for the business. Just keep doing it until you see some good results. You may work in a flexible manner with a minimum of 2 hours but not more than 10 hours, so that you may have a perfect time for your business and for your other stuff with family and friends.

4. No Passion, doing just for the money – it has been stated time and time again that if you are in this business just to make a quick buck you may do so and do so well but for the short term only. You are much better doing something you love by choosing your niche wisely something you have passion about and then giving honest reviews about the products and do not do the hard sell on people. Also it’s important you build trust and community with your readers

5. Not studying further into the market – Just like SEO with constant changes in the search market, same goes for affiliate marketing, you must adapt what you know and then put this out to your reader, recently there was new FTC regulations, next week there is this, and next month there will be that. So you must study and then apply constantly. This is where alot of affiliate marketers kind of neglect and think they know everything without constant learning then applying new strategies. Keeping up to date with special offers and much more. (This is why I use PPC Bully)

6. Technical Challenges – Most people think you can get a website business setup in 4 steps, but with running a website and particularly one in which relates to affiliate marketing there are alot of challenges that arise including constant design and structure with your site and interface issues such as emails, autorespnders (This is why I use Aweber) and then registering with affiliate companies. Then you need to also track all of these affiliate programs in every platform.

7. Making the most ROI – Monitoring your ads and seeing how much you are spending on Ads and how many sales you are getting per lead or impression is vital to your success.  Programs like SpeedPPC will help you tremendously. But this is expensive and again may require an investment on your part.

8. Getting ready for expenses - All the tools and learning ebooks, tutorials, joining community sites will cost and I don’t know anyone who isn’t paying for their products they use that has made them successful today. If they have been successful im sure they are pretty unhealthy because learning the hard way costs time. I know what I would like to do in my spare time, have fun and enjoy myself.

If you will overcome these main reasons why affiliate marketers like you will soon fail, think again! You can overcome it by putting yourself in a positive way and always have self-discipline, focus and motivation in order to become a successful affiliate marketer. Failure is not an option, you must get rid of it and always think that you will be successful by just staying focused at your business and affiliate marketing.

Increase Page Rank Doing Nothing?

Tags: , ,

It’s any webmasters dream waiting for the next pagerank update and to find that your site has gained it. Is it because of the hard efforts we’ve been through on our blog? Is it because your blog has a good and professional design? Or is it your blog generates targeted customers and visitors? We’ll the answer to the question is still not possible to give the right one.

I’m going to share this to you guys about my friend who is a regular blogger on how he increased his page rank on his blog by doing nothing than being inactive? He is one of my closest friends for months we’ve been working together in search optimizing techniques and tricks.

Alan is a long time blogger for a year now, he celebrated his 1st birthday today on the 9th of November. He has been into online marketing for almost two years now and he’s still learning on that. But at that time, he had nothing to earn but only updating his blog weekly, over and over again. He also joined pay-per-click programs like Google Adsense, Bidvertiser and AdClickMedia, unfortunately he has not made much money and all of his accounts were disabled due to fraudulent clicks.

He started learning search engine optimization within this year, but he’s still struggling on that until he tried to manage his blog and even got a page rank of 1. He knows that what he’s doing will benefit his blog, but not on his budget. He started join freelancing programs and made more than $1,000 on his freelancing career until now, and that’s where he learned more terms like keyword research, link building and so much more.

He left his blogging days and it turned out that he has been inactive for almost a month now, until he found out that when he came back to his blog and checked his page rank and to his surprise it has boosted up to PR3, and so as his other few pages that also boosted to PR2, just doing nothing but being inactive for so long. It has been a miracle for Alan as he has been showing dedication and love of blogging which the reward finally came to him.

It’s really possible that Blogger type websites will increase your chance to get higher rank in Google, and by getting more backlinks and comments from targeted visitors. But the main key here is folks writing great content on your blog and regularly will gain readers and people linking to your site without you even knowing it, and over time (because Google’s also ranks sites on age) you are bound to get page rank.

Hope you enjoyed this story!
