Avoid These 7 Mistakes New Affiliate Marketers Make

new affiliate marketerAffiliate marketing is one of the easiest ways to start your internet career and start earning money by working from home. You can work in your PJs, make money selling someone else’s product, and avoid the hassles of customer service that goes along with having a product of your own. It’s also the fastest way I know of to get up and running online.

While it can produce great rewards, not everyone finds the success they’ve been told to expect. Here are some of the most common mistakes new affiliate marketers are likely to make:

1. Plastering their website or blog with affiliate banners and links.

Not only does this look scream “Newbie”, it can also hurt your rankings in the search engines. Google is looking for good content on the site and if they find it, they give the site a favorable nod in their rankings.

People won’t come to this site and say, “Wow, look at all the pretty banners, I think I’ll buy myself something.” Remember, online surfers are looking for information that will solve their problems.

2. Taking a “build it and they will come” approach with their site.

Ah, if only it were that easy… But it’s important to jump right in and start driving traffic to your affiliate site. Without traffic, you don’t have a business. Luckily, there are lots of ways to get visitors to your site including article marketing, building Squidoo lenses, list building and sending emails, Twitter, Pay Per Click ads, etc.

3. Using the “set it and forget it” mentality.

Back to the Google thing… search engines like to see new content constantly showing up on the site. Even if you set up their site using proper SEO techniques and land yourself on the first page of the search engines, if you neglect your site it won’t stay on top for long.

4. Sending out the same cut and paste promotional emails as everyone else.

The emails provided by the product creator are there as an example. As a successful affiliate marketer in the making, you should put the emails in your own words and inject your personality into them. Yes, it takes a few extra minutes, but you’ll be rewarded with a better relationship with your readers and more sales.

5. Spending their entire budget on Pay Per Click ads before they know what they’re doing.

PPC is something that requires education, practice and money you’re willing to lose while you go through the learning process. Fortunately, there are lots of free ways to drive traffic when you’re a beginner and when you’re ready for it, educational materials are widely available on PPC methods.

6. Picking a niche they’re not interested in.

It’s been said that you don’t have to have an interest in your niche, you can just outsource everything that needs to be written and you’ll do just fine. While that point of view does hold merit, most beginners do the work themselves rather than use outsourcing right off the bat. If you’re going to spend hours working in a niche, it will be a lot more fun if you have some interest in it.

7. Failing to build a list.

By capturing the email addresses of visitors to your site, you’ll have multiple opportunities to turn them into buyers when they don’t purchase the first time. And guess what? Most people DON’T buy the first time… they need a few reminders before pulling out their credit cards.
