Affiliate & Article Marketing Guide | Earn $100 a Day in 60 Days


Reaching $100 a day ($3000 a month)
often seems like an unreachable target
for many.But it really is possible and
not that hard to achieve if you focus and put in the effort. Here I am going to provide you
with an example of how this
can be done in 1-2 months working
just a few hours each day.
Let’s break it down.
- We’ll promote an affiliate product that pays roughly at least a $25 commission. - I’m going to pick a real tangible product that is in high demand.- After looking around the product I choose is a High Definition Television.- I now look in
Amazon’s bestsellers to see what is popular.- The most popular HDTVs are Samsung models roughly priced between $500 - $2000. Amazon pays a 4% commission on these so if I sold a $1000 TV I’d get $40.
Now How Do I Make Money With This?
- First I will make a quick website that I can create a price comparison page on. I want to compare at least 3 prices from around the web for the particular model I choose to promote- I join the Amazon Affiliate program and also two other affiliate programs in Commission Junction that sell this TV. These pay between $25 and $150 for each sale I generate depending on the model and the particular affiliate program.That means I need between 1-2 sales a day on average to reach my $100 a day goal - see how real this goal is becoming!!!- To get started I simply make a page that compares the three prices outlining the best price. This page is useful to visitors as they can quickly find the cheapest TV while I get paid a commission… brilliant.
Now all I need is traffic…
- I give the price comparison the title of:"Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch HDTV Price Comparison."I also fill it with lots of content about the TV to make sure I can attract lots of SE traffic.- Now I need to build links to the site to help get SE traffic. I will do this with article marketing. This is where I write an article and submit it to xxx number of directories. The articles give linkbacks to my site
(helping to get more SE traffic) and also the articles can get traffic themselves
(as they also rank in the search engines) meaning the users will click the links in the article and land at my price comparison pages.- What I don’t want to do is write 1 article and submit it to 100 directories - this is fine but not the most effective way as Google will treat 99% of them as duplicate content.- Instead I will write one article but use JetSpinner (free) to spin it into 100 unique articles with unique titles.
This way the chance of being hit for duplicate content is less - and each article will be slightly different and therefore get higher search engine rankings for slightly different phrases.
How to write the articles for traffic
- The most important thing in an article is making sure the title contains a strong keyword phrase.
See my post on this here.- I did a search for a "Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch HDTV"
in Google. There were NO exact matches.WOW!!!! I can really break
into this little niche very easily.- I could come up with plenty more little variations like:Samsung LNT4661F 46 inch TVSamsung LNT 4661F 46 inch HDTVSamsung LNT4661F 46 inch High Def TVSamsung LNT 46 inch HDTV Samsung LNT4661F TV etc…- Using Jetspinner I could create 100 variations of my article title to be used in my article submissions.- Chances are some of these articles will hit the top 10 in Google, MSN and Yahoo and people will read the articles and click through to my price comparison site. Plus the extra link backs will also raise the rankings of my price comparison pages.
Rinse and Repeat
- Each day I make a new price comparison page for a different HDTV model on my site.
- Each Day I submit 100 variations of my article to 100 directories. The articles links back to my new price comparison page.
- Each submission of 100 articles drives ends up a trickle of traffic (say just 10 visitors a day). - After 1 month I have had 30 submission and get 300 visitors a day. Because the traffic is so targeted and the page I drive visitors to is actually encourages people to buy from the cheapest vendor, for every 300 visits I get at least 1 sale. - That’s at the very least $50 a day - but probably
more if I get higher conversions.If I do exactly the same in the next month and I’ve reached my $100 a day guaranteed!
