This is an article to give you a simple guide on how to get affiliate traffic as an affiliate marketer. It’s also my answer to one of our members’ question below:<\/p>\n
“I have been trying to do internet marketing for some client but I have not succeeded. This is by being sales representative of this company and I be paid for every customer who sign up and pay. My problem is that I don’t know how to go about it. Please help me and show me how to do it.” – Susan<\/strong><\/em><\/font><\/p>\n Hi Susan, what you’re doing is just a form of affiliate marketing.<\/p>\n In your case, your probably have a personal arrangement with your client instead of through an affiliate network such as ClickBank. But the idea of getting affiliate traffic is essentially the same.<\/p>\n Successful affiliates either own the customers (usually because they already have a high traffic website) or they know where to find the customers (usually through search engines or online advertising).<\/p>\n Understanding this fact, your job of finding affiliate traffic is now simplified.<\/p>\n Either…<\/p>\n 1) you build niche websites to attract targeted traffic for the product you’re promoting, or<\/p>\n 2) you get traffic through search engine optimization and online advertisements such as Adwords.<\/p>\n Each of these is a huge topic by itself. My job is to point you to the right direction. You have to find out the details. (More details can be found in LeadsLeap blog.)<\/p>\n 1) Build your niche websites<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n As an affiliate, your long term goal is to ‘own’ the traffic. You don’t want to keep advertising and sent traffic to your affiliated site.<\/p>\n When I say ‘own’ the traffic, what I mean is creating your own content website, service website or blog, and building your own list.<\/p>\n Yes, it’s much harder than simply posting an advertisement and making a commission straight away. But it’s a business that can potentially grow exponentially and provide you with a nice passive income in the long run.<\/p>\n
