Step by Step Affiliate Marketing Guides

17. Oct 2007 | 17 Comments

I get a lot of requests to write more step by step guides on Affiliate Marketing. Which of course I don’t mind doing, but quite often I like to steer away from these particular types of posts for a few reasons:

If a technique or campaign is posted it’ll become saturated within days (or weeks). Which will probably end up costing you money & have you thinking that you suck at Affiliate Marketing (I don’t want that).
I don’t want to hold your hand or balance you on your bike, I want help you to ride on your own.

So this got me thinking about various types of posts to get lined up that would provide lots of value but would help you reapply things learned in your own interesting ways. Like the Make $200 a Day post, I’ve seen lots of great ways that people have modified that technique into something even better.

Other types of Step by Step guides that I think would provide much more value like:

PPC Campaign & Adgroup Setup (Adwords, MSN & YSM)
Managing PPC Bids
Choosing the right Offers
Split Testing Creatives & Conversion Points
Keyword Research

I want to create guides that help you all think outside the box & nail a campaign that has no competition. Instead of competing against the next guy.

So I wanna hear from you guys. What types of guides would you like to see? Drop me a mail or leave a comment.

There’s lots happening behind the scenes at the moment & Earners Blog will be relaunching with a new, cleaner theme that promotes much more user interaction. Along with guides & recommendations for specific areas of Affiliate Marketing, Affiliate Networks & Guest Posts. So stay tuned for that.

A final question too, if I created a forum that allowed you to discuss techniques. Would you use it?

Hi Stuart,
I think niche selection and keyword research techniques would be the best to begin.
Thanks

Hi Stu,

Awesome job like always! Count me in for the forum.

I would be really interested on your view on building backup networks related to a main website you monetize and how you apply link building velocity & relevancy on each case (how you distribute your link arsenal based on velocity or quantity)…would be great to have this approach explained having in mind for instance your post about building niche websites for affiliate promotion.

Keep it up!

Sorry Stu,

“how you distribute your link arsenal based on velocity or quality”

ThatÂ´s what I meant. =)
