I. Affiliate marketing guides 
When I first started, this was the only kind of website I built. I found a great offer with a high affiliate 
payout and went to town. Maybe it was cell phones, satellite TV activations, dating, or ringtones: it 
didn’t matter as long as the payout was there. These sites have lots of problems right off the bat. 
This approach is problematic because, instead of building a website with information people want, need, 
or that helps them solve a problem, it builds a website to create backfill and legitimize whatever is being 
sold. This is a textbook 101 example of putting the cart before the horse. You need to build a website 
that has information people are looking for and sprinkle in affiliate links, not create affiliate links and 
sprinkle in content. 
Diversify Revenue Streams 
The failure to build more than one source of income from a website has doomed more than one website 
and, in some cases, whole companies. Having a website that only earns money through Adsense, a 
single affiliate program, is extremely dangerous. If one thing changes, for any reason, you can find 
yourself driving off a cliff with no warning. Look for ways to add other streams and be creative. As an 
example, I was building up a new travel website and was looking for a way to add a “fresh” or “news” 
component to help keep the site looking like it was “alive.” I came up with a calendar of local events, but 
it wasn’t “enough,” so I expanded and added in nearby concerts (with affiliate links to ticket brokers). 
Within a few weeks I was making just as much from ticket sales as I was from travel reservations. 
Bad Linking Policies 
Lets be honest. Link building is one of those aspects of building a site that is really difficult. When you 
are building a website, it’s hard to get on the radar of other sites and get them to link to you. As a result, 
a lot of us get a chip on our shoulder and don’t link freely to other people … and that needs to stop. 
Performance review phrases comments/ free download examples Page 1
First of all, when you do that, you are acting like a spoiled child who isn’t going to play anymore and is 
taking his toys home. When you act like that, you create a website that looks like a dead end for links. 
From Google’s perspective, a website like that looks odd and, unless you have A LOT of others factors 
going for you and are on par with Wikipedia, it’s just not going to work. Link to other people, no t just 
government and informational websites. Link to related, non-competitive, commercial sites. Do it often 
and do it freely, especially where it makes sense, looks natural, and benefits the consumer. 
Build a Community and Subscriber Base 
One of the things people who have been in the space long enough will tell you is that you should build a 
source of traffic independent of Google. Build a forum, engage in social media on Twitter or Facebook, 
or build an email list (shudder). I’m going to fully admit I’m not the most social of people. Community 
building is something I hate. I’m also a zero inbox kind of guy. The thought of filling up other people’s 
inboxes makes me twitch. This is an area that I know is important, but it’s still something I struggle wi th. 
Be Pressworthy and Noteworty 
To whatever extent possible, do things that are pressworthy and noteworthy in your space. You don’t 
have to be the most noteworthy, but you don’t want to be the least noteworthy either. You need to do 
things that, to people and search engines, look like press events. DO NOT think like an SEO when doing 
it. Getting a link from a trade website is great, but getting your domain or product mentioned without a 
link is fine too. In reality, getting your domain mentioned without a link is MUCH better than not getting 
your domain mentioned at all. 
II. Affiliate marketingstrategies 
Affiliate marketing is a low-cost 
way for merchants to build 
awareness and showcase their 
products and services. The model 
is simple; it works as a 
commission-based referral 
system. A partner or affiliate 
markets a merchant's products 
for a "piece of the pie." 
Affiliate marketing experts often make an income that can tally over five figures 
per month, however only 1 to 5% of thousands of marketers achieve this level. 
Performance review phrases comments/ free download examples Page 2
When an affiliate reaches this elite level they are often referred to as a "super" 
affiliate. 
How does one become a super affiliate? Can anyone do it? Super affiliates have 
common tactics that they embrace and put into place. Anyone can become a 
super affiliate, but it will not come without blood, sweat, and a hefty time 
commitment. The typical super affiliate possesses the following traits: 
 Persistence 
 Patience 
 Thirst for Knowledge 
These three traits combined with the following strategy gives you the formula for 
the makings of a "super" affiliate. 
1. Find a Unique Niche 
The mistake that many affiliate marketing hopefuls have in common is that they 
try to offer everything under the sun rather than focusing on a specific niche 
market. Do not scatter your efforts, focus on your niche, promote it, and sell it 
well. 
2. Search Engine Marketing 
Once you've built your affiliate storehouse you will need to promote it. Many 
affiliates use pay-per-click engines. I suggest that you learn how to achieve organic 
search results or hire a search engine marketing company. This will save you from 
spending all your profits on pay-per-click engines. Only use pay-per-click engines 
if you know what you are doing, otherwise all your profits may end in the hands of 
Google Adwords or Overture. 
3. Know Your Product, Know Your Audience 
Create a resource. By taking the time to learn about the products and/or services 
that you are offering you can create information that builds your credibility. That 
credibility builds trust. If your viewers do not have trust in you more than likely 
they will not purchase from your storehouse. If you want more information on the 
Performance review phrases comments/ free download examples Page 3
psychological process that an online buyer goes through I suggest that you read 
my article on the Five Levels of Internet Marketing and the Sales Process. This will 
help you in creating a web site that converts well, which in return will increase 
your cash flow. 
4. Don't Put All Your Eggs in One Basket 
Promote products from different merchants. This way if you have a problem with 
receiving payment from a merchant, or their products do not convert well the 
effects on your business will be minimal. Watch out for exclusivity agreements; 
remember this is your business. Protect yourself and diversify so that you do not 
feel the famine effect if something goes wrong. There is absolutely nothing wrong 
with promoting niche products from different merchants. 
5. Seek Knowledge and Embrace Change 
If you are familiar with Internet marketing at all you know that what worked three 
months ago may not work today. Stay on top of the trends. Seek knowledge, start 
by learning something new about affiliate marketing daily. For example remember 
those marketing tools called "banner" that use to drive sales at an astronomical 
rate a few years ago? Well those banners developed a term called "banner 
blindness." That means most online viewers will not click on banners even if they 
do pertain to what they are looking for. To be a "super" affiliate you must always 
spend time reading, learning, and embracing the changes in Internet marketing. 
6. Don't Give Up 
It's hard to do, and most of the time those dabbling in affiliate marketing give up 
way too soon. Monitor your statistics, watch to see what is working and what is 
not. Make changes when necessary. Do one thing daily to promote your storehouse 
and be patient. Before you know it you will start getting payments. 
Remember that it will not happen overnight. Encompass and develop the 
persistence, patience, and knowledge. Then follow the tactics I've mentioned 
above and you are on your way to becoming a "super" affiliate.
