When Search & Affiliate Collides
1. When Search & Affiliate Marketing Collide 7/14/2011 Peter Figueredo Founding Partner, Netx Email peter@Netx.com Twitter @figueredo #OMSBOS
2. Overview What is Search Marketing? What is Affiliate Marketing? Who the hell is Netx? What happens when they collide? What happens when they cooperate? Recipe for success
3. Affiliate & Search consistently rank among the top ROI marketing channels 2010 Affiliate Benchmarks Study
25. Direct Linking The only time you should let affiliates direct link is when you have no search marketing campaign of your own.
26. Brand Terms If any other companies are buying your brand terms then allow affiliates to buy them…if not then don’t. It is okay to place bidding caps on brand terms but not too low or your competitors will take top spots. ***Work with a small trusted group of affiliates if you allow this.
27. Bidding Rules Do not place bid caps on affiliates for any terms other than your brand.
28. Competitors Bidding on competitors terms is okay for affiliates as long as they don’t mislead the customer. Your ads should not be confused with ads for the competitor.
29. Coupons Make sure you have your own special offers page then PPC and SEO the hell out of it. Borrow a page from the affiliates playbook and capture more customers directly.

31. Post The Rules Make sure you clearly write out how affiliates can and cannot use search marketing to promote you. Post guidelines everywhere.
33. Monitor License a tool to monitor your critical keywords to gather intelligence and police affiliates. We use TheSearchMonitor.com but others exist. Test it out for free with code: PeterOms *not an affiliate link, I promise
34. Search + Vertical If you have an affiliate who can build out vertical websites around your category and is an expert in PPC and SEO then you have found the Holy Grail!

Make sure your tool pulls data from different geographical locations as shady affiliates might try to geo target around you
These types of affiliates can generate 10 – 30% of the program’s volume each.There are not many so they are kept a secret usually…they also don’t have time to work with hundreds of advertisersTrivia Question: Can you guess where this picture is from? Monty Python’s Holy Grail
