Hi regular readers, welcome new readers,

It’s a quiet Tuesday unless the usual. I wonder why that is. Or maybe it’s good because I had a pretty stressful weekend when I almost lost everything that was on my hard disk and my last backup was months ago. Imagine that!

I’d been meaning to do a backup but one thing or the other has gotten in the way. Yes, I know, there are no excuses for not backing up your business, your rice bowl! My bad! Good thing I didn’t lose anything.

Anyhow, on with today’s agenda which is introducing you to our Spotlight Netpreneur in the green box on the left sidebar of this page. Be sure you click on the name link to visit our featured Spotlight Netpreneur!

Also before I go, if you’d like to be our Spotlight Netpreneur with the spotlight shining on you and your business for 4 whole weeks, be sure to check out my current promotion. Ads will be run on a first come, first served basis. Only 10 spots left!!

Seven Secrets For Getting Traffic to Your Affiliate Marketing Website

by Rusty O'Connor

Can you create traffic for your website? The answer which may surprise some people is no.

Unless you are a billionaire or work for a large corporation that has the money to advertise their website at the Super Bowl, you can't create substantial traffic for your website.

Consider Internet traffic as a large number of flowing rivers or streams. Some are big, for example searches on celebrities or news. Some are small: Mongolian Pottery designs from when the Mongolians ruled China could be a good example!

As an affiliate marketer your task is to find rivers and streams that are relevant to your chosen topic and to start directing some of the flow towards your website. How do you do this?

From our experience and discussions with other affiliate marketers, we provide seven methods for how to do this (they have worked for us and some very successful affiliate marketers, and they will work for you):

* Secret 1: Unique content. This is no big surprise. What is surprising is that so many marketers reproduce other peoples work and think it will bring success. Start by research highly searched topics and put your own spin on them. Google and the other search engines like this uniqueness, as do readers and future prospects.

* Secret 2: Write articles. Writing articles is a great way to get exposure for yourself and your website. More importantly, it establishes yourself as an expert in a particular field or fields. In other words, your name or pen name becomes a name that people trust.

Again write relevant and good quality articles that address peoples questions. In the bio box at the bottom, place a link to your website or affiliate website. There are hundreds of article sites on the website which you can submit to. EzineArticles is one of the most well known.

* Secret 3: Submit articles to ezines. Ezines are one of the most powerful ways to generate revenue on the Internet. Do a search on Google for Ezine directories, and then search on these directories for relevant ezines in your field. Contact the ezine owner and ask if you can add an article to their ezine, along with a brief bio at the bottom advertising your website or affiliates website.

* Secret 4: Groups and Forums. There are literally thousands of groups and forums on the Internet. Do a search on Google Groups or Yahoo Groups and find groups relevant to your field. You can either briefly advertise your website, or write a short article and include a reference to your website or affiliate website at the bottom.

* Secret 5: AdWords. When done the right way, AdWords can be used make money through affiliate marketing. The trick is to be very specific and very targeted in your key word selection. Once you do this, test, test and test again.

* Secret 6: YouTube. YouTube for many people is outside of their comfort zone, however if you get over the initial shock of being in a video on the Internet, you will find it can be a great way to generate traffic, as well as to support your status as a recognized expert in a particular field (of course do the research to make sure you are an expert!). The best way is to give a brief presentation or interview in your area of expertise and then advertise your site or affiliate site throughout or at the end.

* Secret 7: Blogging. Blogging is a fantastic way to build up readership. Check our blogger or WordPress and you will be able to set up a blog within minutes. At the end of each article you write, include a reference to your affiliate marketers site. The key for successful blogging is to make the content relevant to the products you are selling.

As you start to build traffic, especially in the early days, it is easier and better to focus on quantity rather than quality (the only area this doesn't apply to is AdWords where specific is necessary otherwise you will waste a lot of money).

Once you have the quantity you can work on ways to improve the quality of the traffic, and start improving the conversion ration of visitors to buyers.

If you follow the above seven secrets you will be well on the way to generating a lot of traffic for your website.

Cheers
