I have over 200 parked domains that I want to make money off through affiliate marketing (and listening to others advice of clickbank as a good start). I plan to use clickbank to find appropriate products that match the domain name. I am also planning to add value so to speak through free ebooks, advice, honest reviews of the affiliate product(s) on each site. A couple questions for seasoned vets: 1. Is there a batch way to create a standardized website template optimized for this type of affiliate marketing (so I could create content on each domain and move on to the next)? Once I am able to create a good affiliate page that has a good match to the product, add some value, and have an optimized site for it as well, the million dollar question is 2. How do I go about driving traffic to the site for free? Or if not free, investing a small or large amount that I will recover quickly and then be able to use the proceeds from the affiliate sales to keep it going. I literally have no experience in marketing and driving traffic to the site so this would be a huge cost if I had to hire an outside firm to do it. Is this the part that takes a lot of time? Is this going to be the reason I dont get into this?
If you are just starting out, then you should always go for free ways of getting traffic. Learn more about it here > www.bummarketingmethod.com
It really depends what kind of websites do you have. There are many ways to monetize websites when it comes to affiliate marketing. I recommend you to split your domains in different categories since your domain name is very important when it comes to affiliate marketing. If your domain are related to downloads, blogs, health and cars, than you should start a new thread for each of these subjects. This doesn't answer to your last question but I hope it will help you in order to make your next step. It's very important if you ask me.
Well they are mostly liability insurance names (wedding insurance, fitness insurance). Eco-friendly names.
If you have insurance names, then you should turn them into Made-For-Adsense sites. Right some keyword articles, throw up adsense, and get traffic. Insurance pays very well for adsense.
Absolutely right... In starting go for article marketing instead of PPC.. To run a successful PPC campaign you need good knowledge of SEO and PPC.
but if you have a lot of money you can try PPC.... of course becareful and pay attention to your conversion.... it can give you traffic really fast, but can also kill you fast if you don't put effort..
