Follow up on twitter!

Hi everyone, just a short post following up on twitter. I've got great advise from a twitter guru last night and after using the product I've got nearly 100 followers in less than 12 hours!!

I've shared this info with a friend this morning and he too has had great success with the product so I decided I had to tell you about it.

It gets "hot" traffic. This means the followers you get are not just normal followers but the are interested in the products you'll promote on twitter.

I've already made money in less than a day!!

So check it out and don't be left behind in 2010

Making Money With Twitter!


Until recently I never used twitter and now that I've started I wish I used it along tome ago but however. Twitter can be a very valuable tool in driving traffic.

Sign up with twitter and just post things like motivational quotes and every so often use it to drive traffic but try not to drive traffic directly to a sales page.

As I am only new to using twitter I can't really give you any more tips but my friend Paul O'Mahony (who got me into using twitter) is offering a free eBook which is more than worth a look.

I downloaded his book shortly after meeting with him and discussing twitter and found the free eBook to be very valuable.

It's full of helpful tips to get you on your way to making an income off twitter.
Yes it is possible and I can tell you Paul is not exaggerating about the money that can be made off twitter.

So check it out at www.thetwitterking.net and get on your way to making money off twitter.

All the best,
Chris.

Oh I almost forgot you can follow me on twitter now @ http://twitter.com/IrishAffiliate

7 Ways To Make More Money From Your List!

1) Place advertisements. There are many corporations who will be willing to pay to put their banners and ads on a list with many subscribers. Selling or renting out lists is not a good idea so rather than doing that, many companies would just rather place ads with lists that have a huge subscriber base. Your newsletter could be placed with many ads and each one spells money.


2) Have affiliations with other companies that have at least a semblance or relation to what your site is about. Here other companies will provide links and brief descriptions of what they offer, products and services. With every click made on the link that directs or leads a subscriber from your list to their site, the company will pay you. This P4P or pay for performance.


3) Make deals with other companies by asking for a small percentage of sales done through your list. With every sale done by customers that have come from your list and have gone there because of your newsletter, the other company will pay you a small percentage of your sales. The more people who buys from them, the more earnings you get.


4) You may also get products from other sites on a consignment basis and sell them to your list via your newsletter. Place descriptions, articles and photos of the product in your newsletter. There will be those who will buy from you and when that happens, you can order the product from the other site and sell it to your buyer.


5) Sell e-books or a compilation of your articles on your list. Manuals and how-to articles are in great demand. Many people will be willing to shell out money to gain knowledge about a certain topic and subject. With your existing list trusting your expertise in that area, an e-book could be offered and sold or used as an incentive.


6) Create a network out of your list. Get people to invite more people to view your site and subscribe to your list. The larger your list is, the more people will be able to click on your links and affiliate links as well as make your advertisement rates higher.


7) Subscribers are willing to pay for information if they know that it can be trusted and relied upon. Use your list to get more and more people to subscribe to you as well as browse your site. Lastly, you can use your list to earn money by making them your partners. Your list will be the bloodline of your growth and increase.

The Money Is In The List!


Even if your just new to Internet marketing you have probably heard the moneys in the list!
And I can honestly tell you this statement is 100% true!

Building a list is an important tool in Internet marketing as in studies its shown that most people directed to a sales page won't buy the product straight away.

But after making contact with them over time (through emails) they are more likely to buy the product after a relationship has been established.

So how do you build a list?

Well the first thing to do is set up a squeeze page for yours traffic to sign up and get a newsletter off you every few days.

In the newsletter don't bombard them with affiliate products just mail them more helpful tips to do with the subject relating to the product.

Then after a while send them an email with a link to the affiliate product you showed them at the start. Most at this stage will buy the product.

First direct traffic straight to the sales page until you see some conversions this is an indication that its worth building a list of subscribers as the niche is lucrative.

The best thing about building a list is you can keep sending them emails and every so often promote a product and make more income :-).

The most important thing to remember is that you need to give your subscribers quality information otherwise they will stop reading your emails after awhile.

So start building a list and generate even more income.

All the best,
Chris

Hiding Your Affiliate Link


Hiding your affiliate link is important when promoting your product. Why? For some reason studies have shown that people are less likely to click on your link unless it looks like a site... There are many possible reasons for this, they may think it have a virus etc. but there are also many ways you can "cloak" it.

One way which shows to work best is buying a domain name from godaddy.com and forwarding it to your affiliate link.

One of my affiliate products that i sell is a fly fishing eBook.
I write articles and keep my link at the end of the article to drive traffic to the site. The domain name I bought is http://www.flyfishing-for-beginners.com and if you click on it it will redirect you to the sales page of the eBook with my clickbank id in it. (that's how they know if the sale came from traffic I directed resulting in me getting commission)

Another way to cloak your affiliate link is to purchase cloaking software but your better off to buy the domain name and its a lot cheaper.

If your going to be promoting the product on twitter then the best thing to do is find a url shortening website and use that (usually free).

So from now on when directing traffic always hide your affiliate link and you'll definitely see a difference.

All the best,
Chris

CPA Marketing



“Cost Per Action” marketing is two of the simplest methods for beginner Internet marketers to begin making money online. For years, this type of affiliate marketing has an industry secret of the insider "big players.” It was never really a “secret,” but while most people in Internet marketing had their hands busy promoting Clickbank products, the big kahunas were playing on a whole different level.

Cost Per Action, sometimes referred to as "CPA," is a type of Internet marketing that requires consumers to complete specific actions – this usually entails filling out a form and requesting a free product sample, signing up for a free trial. In some cases, it involves asking the consumer to try a new product or service by making a small purchase.

What it means is that you, as offer promoter, get paid for the "actions" taken by the traffic you steer to advertisers. As a basic example, let's say a company wants to test the consumer feedback on a new product line that they are introducing. They create an offer where they agree to pay $1.50 for each person who submits their e-mail address and zip code – your job is simply to direct traffic to that site and then collect $1.50 for each person who opts in.

This is a fairly standard promotion type. Others might pay as much as $37 for an optin (though if the payout is higher, the offer might require much more information from the customer or ask for a small upfront payment.

In essence you, as a CPA marketer, are really a traffic broker: You buy traffic on one end, send it to an offer page and get paid based on how well it converts. Sounds so simple, doesn't it? It can be easy, but it generally isn't.

Because it is so profitable, CPA marketing is extremely competitive, and for a beginner, it can be intimidating to start trying to compete with super-affiliates making $100k a day and even more, or even with the more common affiliates who are making $500 to $1,000 a day running CPA campaigns. When you try to get started, you're going to be up against all of that competition, and it can be very challenging. The truth is, a lot of beginners simply get frustrated and give up when they figure out that CPA marketing can be difficult and expensive.

CPA marketing can be all that the sales letters say it can be – you really can make $100k a day if you know what you’re doing – but it can also be frustrating if you jump in without the right information. This http://tinyurl.com/yjrhq84 course can get you off on the right footing so that you can start making money almost right away without the stress of worrying you’ll lose your shirt.

Until next time,
Chris.

I am proof that it is possible to make money online. If you don't know me then let me tell you I am a college student, unemployed and spent most days doing what students do best.. nothing. Then I started Internet marketing and after putting in some effort every day the results started to show. Best of all its EASY. You don't need a degree just follow step by step instructions.
