The Six Figure Money Making Process
Step 2: Own It
Take control of the product by developing your own marketing
platform.
By "own" the product you "take ownership" of it by creating
landing
pages, blogs, or other channels to push the product. Too many
affiliates rely on poor methods like
pay per click
direct linking that does not give them "ownership" of the
product's marketing platform.
The preferred "ownership" method is to already have an established
marketing platform. Google, Yahoo!, and other search engines
have a cartoon fantasy in mind when it comes to marketing platforms.
This cartoon fantasy revolves around people who first have
established platforms, then secondly populate them with affiliate
offers. Marketers who do not have established platforms are
called thin
affiliates.
If you do not fall into the cartoon fantasy area, then this is for
you:
How to Take Ownership of the Affiliate Product
- Register your own domain or use an existing domain.
- Create a simple
landing page featuring the product.
The landing page can be a web page or a blog.
- "Brand" the landing page. Make it legitimate or look
legitimate by creating graphic elements (banners, images, etc.)
and adding Google Fluff pages such as About Us, Privacy Policy,
and Contact Us.
- Create original content based around the product's niche.
- Populate the landing page with affiliate links.
