    Hi, I'm new here and new to internet marketing. I've just launched my first ebook on Clickbank and I wondered what tips people had here for driving traffic and recruiting affiliates? Most grateful for your wisdom and replies.

    Thanks

    James

    Give your affiliate's marketing tools ( Banners and Images, promotion videos, articles to use in their blogs that talk about your ebook in detail)

    As said above, give them tools.

    Also, if its a hot topic then people will sign up don't worry about it.

    But if not, then I recommend you use the buy, sell, trade area of this forum to recruit some and tell them how much money they could make.

    Also, why not post it here? I'd love to see it!

    first, make more sales hard using your self and your few army of affiliates and when your product is increasing gravity... many people will see your product and use it

    Many thanks for the replies, some good info. Well my product went live yesterday so I'll see how it does. It's in the diet and detox arena - great for new year, as soon as I have enough kudos here I'll post it here, I think I have to have more posts first? Don't to break any rules and upset anyone.

    as well as the above comments, you could offer a limited number of review copies to potential affiliates. As there are already tons of ebooks on the subject, affiliates are more likely to promote it when they know the value it can give to customers and they can also give an honest and detailed review instead of selling it blindly.

    I agree with Pingo88 and then do social bookmarking to promote your articles.

    Thanks for this, useful stuff. How about Craigslist? Does it work to post there? Are there other similar sites worth posting on?

    thanks in advance

    good advice your getting here!! :) what i do i create my own daily plan a site say like... 1 article a day to my site and an article directory, bookmark that article as many times as you can the one you sent to the article directory, and just tweet your new post on your site. try not bookmarking your posts on your site but bookmark everything pointing to your site cause then competiors cant find out how strong your links on links are and will wonder how can they not take you over :) DONT WORK ONE DAY AND NOT THE NEXT!!!!!!!! ITS BEST DO 1-2 HOUR EVERY DAY!!!! hope that helped and wish you the best!!

    Give Craig's List a go. I made a post yesterday under "computer services" offering free articles to read on my website on "How To Increase Traffic To Your Website". Too early yet to judge the response.

    If you want more affiliate promoting your product, give them high commission, not sure if you went with the default 25% on CB, or if you changed that. It may be worthwhile making your commission slightly more than what your competitors are currently offering. In addition, make it easy for affiliate to promote you product, by providing them with relevant tools, and making them see that you take your affiliate marketers seriously.

    In terms of driving traffic, look at using paid traffic and unpaid like SEO, social media to attract traffic to your site. Also make sure you test your conversion.

    Articles + social media = very good things will happen, ONLY if the articles are really good quality though!
