You might be surprised how effective using Adwords PPC can be while skipping the whole process of mainting and optimizing your own site. I have several campaigns now where i just left out any of my own sites and promote products using either CJ or Amazon. Especially Amazonhunter helped me a ghreat deal there. Short: Thousands of Ads/Keywords where i only have my affiliateID in it and use the main-site (not mine!) for the product as display URL. The kicker is that 95% of those ads, even without having my own site have staggering QualityScore ! No need to worry about SEO, no need to worry about making "the best landing page". Especially as an affiliate marketer, and especially with amazon it's very easy since i use Amazonhunter which displays me whether and if there is competition on Adwords. I chose keywords where there is no competion I know that Brad Callen now has something in the works (Affiliate Elite) which might to the same (or similiar) for clickbank products. No details known yet. What i want to say is...before you go crazy and spend valuable time optimizing your OWN sites.....think about the easy and quick way and promote products on PPC, products from Clickbank, CJ, Amazon etc..etc... Easy bucks and Great Quality Score most of the time. Cheers, Georg.
