Stick To The Fundamentals
January 31, 2007 | Written by annliu | Filed Under Affiliate Marketing Tips
Stop chasing fads and quick fixes. Stop the distractions. Choose not to be caught in the sales funnel for the next greatest traffic generator or whatever the hyper is …
Think in the long term. Think strategies. Focus on building your business by putting value ahead of everything else. Add valuable content to your site on a regular basis. Make sure it’s content worth linking to. Try to get deep links down into your internal pages.
Why I emphasis on the Content ? Here is a story I stumbled across this afternoon online,
Prior to Google’s “Florida dance” in Dec. 2005 I was playing the Google arbitrage game. Paying 10 cents or so a click on Adwords and earning 40-50 cents and more a click from Adsense. With a click through rate as high as 60% this was very profitable business. Roughtly for every $1,000 I would spend I would earn back $2,000.
Then the dance. Google changed the landing page requirements and gave a “quality” score. Thay wanted content on the pages. If you didn’t have the content they were looking for you were changed more, much more, for your Adwords keywords.
My high click through rate pages were minimal. Just a nice graphic and a few words that exactly matched the key words used in Google Adwords. Exactly a match for what the surfers were looking for.
But not what Google was looking for. My Adsense income dropped by over 80% overnight.
Since then I have concentrated on providing decent content. On the Internet good content will never go out the window. Folks want to find valuable information - David G
To achieve success on the Internet and affiliate marketing, the most important thing and the first thing to do is Stick To The Fundamentals, established it first, then expand and profit from it …
Also don’t forget focus on your daily goals, reward yourself for yesterdays achievements. Study your mentors. Practice hard. Work smart. That’s how you become the winner.
