8 Ways To Increase Your Affiliate Commission

Toon Chooi Tan 1) Collect your visitor email addresses by providing free
reports.

Offer a free report to your visitor. This report should
provide helpful and valuable information. This will enable
you to collect your visitors email address and follow up
with them. Use an autoresponder to automate this work for
you.

Some of them are:

http://www.aweber.com
http://www.freeautobot.com
http://www.permissionexpress.com

2) Publish your own newsletter;

Publishing your own ezine and building up your subscriber
base. Most of the successful Marketing Gurus have a large
subscriber base. The reason is simple, "The Gold Is In The
List". Successful Marketers like Terry Dean, Jim Daniels etc
have been successful in using this technique. The list
server you can use are

http://www.yahoogroup.com
http://www.eGroup.com

3)Write your own endorsement or review the product you're
promoting.

A heartfelt honest testimonial is hands down the best way to
get a prospect to buy. Your prospect wants to know how this
product has ben helping you. This will help them to make the
decision to buy.

4)Use your web site 404 (Error) page.

Even though we try to build a perfect web site, sometimes
something may be missing without our being aware of it.
That's why the software may still have bugs even after being
tested a few times. Check with your web hosting company to
see if you can customise the error page. In my case, I use
my error page to promote Marlon's products. I put up the
ebook cover and the ad on the error page. Whenever someone
is looking for a page that is missing or mistypes the name,
this page will help me to promote Marlon's products .

5) Fully utilize your thank you page .

After the visitor opts in to your mailing list, redirect
them to a thank you page where you can recommend your
affiliate product. Yanik Silver is using this technique;
After the visitor submits their email for the report, they
will be redirected to the thank you page. In the thank you
page, Yanik will recommend a few products to his prospect.
However, Marlon and some other Marketers prefer to sell 1
product at one time, which they believe it is more effective
and less confusing. You can test these 2 methods by using a
simple java script so that the thank you page will be
rotated. One is with a single product recommendation and the
other page will be for multiple product recommendations.
Test it out to see which one gives you a higher conversion
rate.

6) Track your ad and advertising.

You have to track your ad copy and advertising campaigns.
This will enable you to know the conversion rate and then
your ROI. (Return On Investment) Some of the tracking tools
you can use are

http://www.adminder.com
http://www.linkkcounter.com

7) Let your affiliate program presell for you.

Some of the affiliate programs have prepared valuable
reports, newsletters, or courses to help you to presell.
Some of them are Ken's Site Sell products, Marlon's Weekly
Marketing Tips and Sumatra's Search Engine reports etc.

What you need to do is try to get your visitors to opt in to
these mailing lists and let their information do the presell
work for you. I was able to secure 2 sales for Marlon's
product for this months through this method. What I do is
put the opt in form of Marlon's Marketing Tips into the
bonus page where my subscribers go to download the bonus
ebooks that I have set up for them. In addition, I also put
the opt in form into the thank you and error page, right at
the bottom of the product recommendation.

8) Give bonuses when someone buys from you.

Everyone on the web is selling almost the same products as
you. By offering additional bonuses like software, ebooks or
information, your prospect may feel that the added value to
your product tips the scale in your favor over the same
product being offered by the others.

This does make you different from the others and puts you in
"A Unique Selling Position"
