I would have to agree that social media is one of the better ways. I've banked well because of social media alone many times.
Forum marketing for sure! The more you post the more traffic you can get. Obviously depending on what niche you are in. Build a relationship with people on the forum. offer good advice and have a link to your LANDING PAGE with a free report and build your list. Keep that building your relationships via your list, then mention the product that you are promoting. This is a free method and very very effective.
Well i think you can use blend of all the methods rather than focusing on 1 or 2. And also keep in mind the recent Google's Penguin update.
I have been promoting clickbank product like Max Registry Cleaner and till today my conversion rate is very good. My overall experience as an Affiliate marketer has been satisfactory. In case someone needs to know more about this program can PM me.
I am over 2 years in the online marketing, making pretty good income from other sources, but from affiliate marketing my monthly income is less than 100 dollars. I am trying to make a better position here, because affiliate marketing is something like earning without much hassle.
definitely article marketing is the best way to get good results with affiliate marketing as you do not have to spend any money for this method..
i make money from affiliate marketing by forward by masking some domains that i have and marketing its to get more cash from the internet
I'm with you on that it's way more effective just need to be somewhat smart and skilled to make real flow.
It all depends on what you are promoting from clickbank. You also have to factor in your ROI based on your time invested in the marketing method. For example a wellparked site can be set up in minutes, generate unique content which will pass google & publish automatically. So in this instance the financial return is much higher than perhaps other forums of marketing. Remember clickbank can be very effective, but like all forms of affiliate marketing it all comes down to how relevant the products are to your website. Remember to vet your clickbank partners as some have 'leakage', which means they encourage payment through other means which means you miss out on the sale.
Yes Article posting, Forums, Social media is key role for affiliate program, so you will concentrate on these factors..
It's a chain of all activities to get traffic. You have already mentioned the ratio's for all which might differ from individual to individual but implementation of article, blog, forum, social media and email marketing will be helpful. It's a clubbed in effort I would say.
