I'm pretty new to affiliate marketing and I just have no clue how to bring a lot of targetted traffick. There are guys who make 50 sales a day from one product - how? Where the traffick comes from? I found a nice niche lately and made 2 sales from it. I really would like to bring 10-20 sales daily from it but even if I'll have the first spot on google for every targeted keyword I'll still won't be able to hit that target. Althouth the niche is pretty comtetetive so it will take me something like 3-6 months to hit the first page and I'm not even talking about the first place. The point is - how to bring these 500-1000 hops a day? How? Is there some secret tactics these superaffiliates use? PS. - Don't mention PPC please - the way my websites built really don't match the google's requierements and I was already warned that they will ban my account if I'll start a campeight with that kind of website (presell page). Unfortunately It's the only way I know to presell products!
There is no real secret, just building your business up over several months... If anything the "secret" is to filter your visitors into an email list - this is the way you can email them all at once about new products / sales / offers / launches and generate 50+ sales in a day. Imo you just can't really do this with a blog unless it is a powerhouse, but even a normal blog, built up over 6 months and filtering people into a list can get 5000 subscribers and really start to make healthy commissions... Look at some of these "super affiliates" youll be hard pressed to find one without a list..
It is my question too. No matter what I do, even if my page rank no. 1, I only make a couple of sales or none. But others seem to be fortunate. This is what I concluded: the main source of their income is from their list. They already have earned TRUST with their people in the list. And if there is trust, more people will buy. I think that is the reason. Or we need tens of thousands of visitors to our hops daily. But have you tried on newly launching products? That is more easier than selling old products.

I thought about building a list but I need some big traffick to build a big one. Also the market I am in is not the one that you can sell them again so it won't be so effective!
I have managed on certain occasions to bring a large amount of sales (as an affiliate). Most super affiliates are PPC guys. That's how I managed to pull a large amount of sales, I used PPC. However, you would need a big budget for this. Also, since adwords has gotten so strict, it's much harder to create a decent campaign. Some also use Facebook Ads and PPV to get sales, but Facebook Ads and PPV are mostly used for CPA offers, rather than clickbank. Another way is with a big list. I've gotten up to 600 sales from a single e-mail blast. An E-mail list is definitely a great way to get a large amount of sales fast. The great thing is, you can sell things over and over to your list, and continuously make money off them.
Have you tried w3.viralurl.com As a member you can email 3000 random members every 3 days. If you use that to give away something of value you should get a good optin rate to get your list started.
The secret is in building a list. Just imagine if you had several targeted lists & you promoted relevant products to your customers twice a week & at least half of your promotions where subscription based, you would make an absolute killing ! Lists do take a while to build, even when you offer free documents & reports which are informative. Some people are reluctant in giving you their name & email address for spamming reasons & will give you a bogus address. A top marketer once told me that, if you build targeted lists & promote the correct products then, you will eat well for a very long time & that saying has stuck with me to this day ! Mark
@shmeeko69 is right. My mentor always make this statement " The Money is in the List" Build a list related to your site or the affiliate offer and keep making the money from them always. Use free offer to build your list, it may take some time and effort but at the end you will start enjoying from your work...it has a long run income.
There are 3 things that will make a super affiliate: 1) Long tail (going after the most specific of problems in a market) 2) Leverage (knowing what to outsource and to whome) 3) Having the vision to build companies properly (most people just build small little review sites and then don't know how to go further. Super affs build big sites)
One of my guys is ranked one on one my highest searching keywords, I am right below him in the 5 spot and he still manages to get most of my sales. Makes a decent amount of money too..
Hey, I've actually worked with and interviewed several of these super affiliates and there are some legitimate answers to the things you're asking. If you'd like to see my take on it, go to affiliatesalesblueprint dot com. Talk to you soon. ~Mike Cowles. <><
List.......BUT......two very different types of lists in how they operate are used by super affiliates. List type 1. Mass list accumulation with cheap traffic (could be affiliates, could be cheaper paid traffic). Usually these lists are not cultivated well at all. By that I mean they blast some absolute junk in a total scam niche that has no hopes of ever converting again after the first rip-off blast is finished. Now, there are exceptions, but generally this type of list will burn up fast and stop converting. Then the affiliate will acquire new lists and pull the same hit. Can work pretty well, lol. List 2-These are relationship building lists, and lists that are accumulating data on their visitors. These lists don't generally sell junk, and they are usually not selling Clickbank break-up guides to the same guy three times. You have to be creative here.
