I just posted this as a reply on another thread but I think this information can help a few affiliates no matter what skill level you are. For some of you, it will motivate you to take action and for others it will reinforce what you already know. So here it is... ----------------------------- Landing Page is the only way to go. And the most important aspect of your landing page hands down is your "COPY"! Targeted Traffic + Great COPY = FROG SKINS! Here's an example of one our products. As you can see the first affiliate is sending almost twice the traffic as our 3rd affiliate. Yet our 3 affiliate blows him away in conversions. Whats the difference between both of them? The first affiliate is sending targeted traffic to his landing page but his copy sucks! The worst part is that I can't even contact him to tell him that. Tough, moving on... The third affiliate is sending targeted traffic too but the copy we helped him craft for his landing page allowed him to turn his traffic into a real profit funnel! lesson of the day? Learn how to write copy that connects with the customer. How do you do that? By properly researching your market. >> Visit the forums they visit. >> Learn the language they use in the forums. This will allow you to speak to them in a way they understand. >> Take notes on what their needs are and make sure you answer to those needs on your landing page. >> Find out their age group. Are they making the decision or are their parents ( certain markets are targeted for a younger crowd) >> Find out in what stage of the buying process they are. Certain keywords that you are marketing on have buyers that are ready to throw money at you. They dont need to here the whole spiel you are throwing at them. Find those keywords and give them their solution ASAP! >> Split Test, Split Test, Split Test! Give your self a raise! Test your copy, test your pictures, test your design, test the size of your text. Test a review style landing page or a Feel, Felt Found landing page. >> LAST BUT NOT LEAST... STOP PROCRASTINATING! (I'm working on this my self), it's so easy to do nothing! But in this business, sooner or later you will learn the pain of discipline or regret. TAKE ACTION! There is other things you can do to improve your conversions. But you follow this formula, I can assure you. You will make money my friend. Affiliate marketing takes work. It's a business. The day you start treating it like one is the day that its going to pay you like one. Put what I've explained into action and I can assure you that your CB account will reflect "CHANGE" within days. To your success Rene
good post but wow, all of those conversion rates are very very poor. What product is this if you dont mind me asking?
I want to know what can be the perfect landing page ? What technique am I supposed to use and what to tell to attract the potential buyer ?
There is no one perfect landing page my friend. I like to use the review method. However, in some niches I will write a story based on the FEEL, FELT and FOUND method. You just have to find the angle your comfortable writing in really.
Yes this is a good post. It is true as well what I do is make a landing page that has excellent copy. Also a little tip have pictures, screenshots of the service or software and make it personal. Also imagine you are ticking off boxes that are the questions the customer will have like: "Does it work?" "How can you proof it?" "Is there any guarantees?" etc... Just my 2 pence. Chris

I heard that brother. In my case I just got to comfortable. And if you don't control that it is a bad habit to get rid of. I've been doing better these past few months but man oh man this gorilla is hard to get of my back.
