Affiliate Marketing Master Plan

I’ve been doing a great deal of learning and discovering what works and what doesn’t for about a year now. I’ll tell you that this year has gone by super fast.

I had found some niches that were very profitable, and eventually dried up however. But, the thing is I know this works. One thing to remember, website traffic is good, but website traffic that converts is really what you want.

I will say one thing, for those of you looking for the quick bucks, this may not be for you. It takes time and effort. I work at this every spare minute I have. But, I can see results , and I can see how building a solid infrasturcture will pay off dividends in the future.

What I have settled on is that organic traffic is the way to go. And if you read the last post, you will and should understand that organic rankings you need to gather many links that are optimized for your intended keywords.

To review…you can never say it too many times.

1. Do the keyword research and find what keywords are low competition, and high search.

2. Build a site.

3. Start gathering links like crazy (well, not too crazy…can you say sandbox?) How bout, in a natural progression.

4. Rank for your keyword.

5. Open Bank account.

Now, you have to understand that it takes 3-6 months on average to rank for a non too tough keyword.

As I move forward on this blog, I am going to work at offering affiliate marketing tips, and ways to get good rankings.

I’ll also introduce you to some of the people that I like to follow, who offer great information, and they don’t scam you.

Stop by every so often, and hey, post a comment to say hi!

Okay, so we are now starting to talk about the benefits of and ranking with organic traffic on google. This is where it is at.

The first thing you need to completely understand, is that going the organic traffic route is a method that you get paid in 4-6 months. Do not expect to see that your site ranks number one for your search term, or keyword in a few weeks.

If that were possible, then don’t you think that everyone would be doing it? Now, there are rare instances that it does happen, but remember what I am saying. they Are RARE!

You need to build your site, then you need to get links to that site. Every link has a value associated with it. Think of links as votes. Every link is a vote for your site. Some votes have more power, and some have less.

Overall, the more links you have the better you will rank. But… That doesn’t mean that you will rank if you go and get thousands of links in a day. Google will simply ignore those links, and worse off, you could get penalized for those links.

Gradually, your links get counted, and then you see your site starting to move up in the search rankings. Eventually, you hit position one, and you dominate that search term.

In time, we will discuss the different kinds of links, and what you want to do to get them.

But what is important is that you understand from this post is that links are the little guys that are going to get you paid if you work organic search traffic.
