Payouts will not come into your pocket if you just sit here staring at the monitor, but here are some skills you need to improve your affiliate marketing performance.
1. Choose the right promotional materials
One of the key steps of promoting affiliate is to choose the right promotional materials. For QpidAffiliate, there are four types of materials for your selection: text links, banners, articles and email templates for email marketing. Every material has its own advantages and disadvantages. You can work with our affiliate manager or split-test which materials are the well-converted ones.
Keep constant commination with your affiliate manager, let him/her update you on any new materials, new promotions, special offers or something, the new ones are usually more attractive to the visitors.
2. Convince your visitors to click on your affiliate links
This seems to be the most challenging skill and even professional webmasters sometimes get stuck with CTR. But there’s one thing in common: Relativity. The more relative between your site and the affiliate product, the higher the CTR may yield. Plus, you can put the right promotional materials in a more relative page. For instance, the page about travel may be better than the one about children’s food in promoting QpidAffiliate. But it does not always apply. You will not know what it will turn out unless you try.
3. Choose the right positions to place links
When you have selected the right promotional materials, now it is time to think about where to place these materials to get most exposed to your visitors and generate high payouts. The above-the-fold theory seems always right but sometimes, you should try to put at place where your visitors can read and attracted by your contents and materials. Different combination of page contents, positions and kinds of materials sometimes make a distinctive difference.
4. Your own creativities and approaches that count
You can get your first payouts in a short time and it will be doubled or tripled or even much higher in the near future. Nothing is impossible. Learn from other experienced affiliate markets and get your own formula. There’s always a way to produce your own creativities and figure out your own approaches in affiliate marketing. Mind you! Do not always copy others’ experience. With that being said, I mean that you can copy someone’s experience as a beginner, but with your determination and exploration, your beaten track’s there.
Please do remember that, in QpidAffiliate, your own creativities are upon our approval before it comes into service.
You cannot build a house out of nowhere, some rules are meant to be followed, some skills are meant to be adjusted. In affiliate marketing, there are no set ways to be successful. If you wish to enjoy high payouts, try, in multiple ways, to use the right materials in the right positions to target the right audience to maximize your commissions.
