5 Ways To Drive Traffic & Make More Money!

You have sent up your affiliate marketing campaign but the process of driving traffic

through your affiliate link has caused you to become temporarily stuck. Not to worry, reading this article will solve your problems.

Targeting traffic from your affiliate link should be treated no differently to driving traffic in any other online venture. The same principles are used and the steps are no different. There is actually a multitude of ways, but for the purposes of brevity this article will discuss some of the more simple methods.

One of the questions we often ask is 'How can I get traffic?' There is nothing wrong with asking that question. However, you may find that a better question to ask yourself is 'How can I find targeted traffic?' With this question at the back of your mind let us stop hesitating and proceed.

1. Pay per click campaigns are one of the most common methods that affiliate marketers use to successfully sell their products. The main advantage that this method has is that traffic can be sent to your link very quickly.

However, it can be quite expensive and you may lose a lot of money if you don't know what you are doing. If you are prepared to learn the steps, and preferably obtain a mentor, this is a great way to drive lots of targeted traffic and earn great commissions.

2. Write a review of the product you are selling. This method falls somewhere in between getting traffic and earning commissions. If you want to be successful in affiliate marketing you must be able to stand by the product that you are promoting so be honest and don't promote bad products. That means that you must have bought and used the product yourself. Writing a review of the product and sticking your link at the end of the review is a great way to drive targeted traffic to buy your product.

3. Go to social websites such as Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter and find people interested in that product. You can then refer them to your link or review page. Do not spam and do not try and 'sell' them. If you are genuinely trying to help people you will get the best results.

4. Write articles about the product and submit them to article directories. Include your link to either your affiliate website or just directly to the products sales page using your affiliate link. This is a great way to get targeted traffic.

5. Posting on forums related to the product that you are promoting is a great way of getting targeted traffic. Like using social websites - never spam. By always trying to help people, you will find that you will get the best results.

Using any of the above is a sure fire way to get targeted traffic to your affiliate link. One of the key points to remember is not to sell the product that you are trying to promote. Give an honest assessment and avoid using hyperbolic statements. Keeping this is mind will give you the best results and you will reap financial rewards by helping people.
