2. Finding a Profitable Niche

Most important thing is to choose a subject or niche market to build your campaign around that people will be willing to PAY money for.  You need to start by getting some ideas of niche markets. Here are a few examples of websites you can visit to get "inspiration" for great profitable niches...

·         www.dummies.com

If Dummies have a book selling for $20 on a subject, then that subject is profitable.

·         www.magazines.com

Every magazine's subject is the result of intensive market research to discover which niches will sell.

·         www.ebay.com

The largest search engine online for BUYERS so great for finding a hungry niche for ideas.

·         www.amazon.com

Another great "buyers" search engine for finding what people are buying right now.

So simply visit the websites and jot down a few niches you would be interested in.

3. Keyword research

This can take some time to get the "secret formula", but is well worth your time at this stage. Visit http://tools.seobook.com/keyword-tools/seobook/ and type in your chosen niche. This is a great free tool for finding search results in Google, Bing and Yahoo.

The list will tell you exactly what people are typing into Google every day. This is very important as we now know exactly WHAT our potential customers WANT. Now this way we have a "winning keyword phrase" in which to build our affiliate marketing campaign around. Repeat the process until you generate a list of keyword phrases that have about 3,000 monthly searches and about 30,000 competing pages. This "formula" is an ideal equation for being able to compete with other affiliate marketers. Keep your keyword list safe as you will be using it to add these keywords to your website and for SEO traffic.

4. The next thing you need to do is to squeeze page, for that you need a website (one page website is sufficient). A single page website is often referred to as a Squeeze Page/Opt-in Page/Landing Page/Lead Capture page. It is designed to get the visitor to your web page to leave their email address. The new, highly-converting squeeze pages are called "2-Part Opt-in Pages" and they typically convert up to 400% higher than conventional squeeze pages. Why is it necessary to bring the visitors to your website is simple - You need to build your list of potential customers?

5. How to Build Your List

This is very important and it’s something which you need to think about for a minute. The only reason someone visiting your site will leave you their email address is if they get something in return. A simple, but effective question is what will you give them? Let's get back to the Squeeze Page. When your visitor lands on your page they will see a pop-up box to leave their email address or they can see a picture of the FREE GIFT they will get in exchange. That free gift is the key to this whole exchange to take place. Without a free gift there's no email address.

When you promote affiliate products on clickbank, you sometimes are offered a brand able report or eBook already written, but this is NOT the best thing to offer your list, as they are usually very long and your subscriber will lose interest very quickly. So, create a short 5-page pdf guide using the key selling points from the vendors affiliate tools or home page. It will tell your subscriber WHAT they need to do to answer their burning question, but not how doing it. This is very important as you don't want to give away everything yet; it's a FREEBIE at the end of the day Keep the good stuff back at this stage.

6. Getting a Squeeze Page

After getting a free gift to give away to your subscribers, you next need a squeeze page to link to it. Getting a high converting, fast loading, good-looking responsive opt-in page is a must for online marketing. Lead pages are perfect for linking your free gift (pdf) and your email auto responder service to, and they just look amazing too! You can also view your pages, analytics to see how they are converting. This is very useful to anyone who runs their business online. For squeeze page, choose a strong background image that will attract the attention of your chosen niche audience. And second thing about squeeze page is that it doesn't immediately ask your visitor for their details and research.

7. Squeeze Page Headlines

Your squeeze page must look great and must give a clear message to the visitor to your squeeze page. There is no need to have bullet points or a long paragraph to read. Just state what your visitor will get if they sign up. For example:

"DO NOT READ PAGE 4 OF THIS REPORT -

IT MAY SHOCK YOU!"

"LOOK AT THIS GUY ON PAGE 3 OF THE REPORT -

DO YOU THINK HIS ABS IS REAL?"

"CAN YOU BELIEVE THE WOMAN ON PAGE 4 USED

TO HAVE BAD CELLULITE?"

8. The Conversion

The conversion page also known as the Thank you page is displayed next and is really very important. This is often overlooked by 90% of marketers who simply let the default auto responder message get displayed. You can use this page to display a link to the affiliate Sales Page that contains your hoplink, but the most effective method is to display a One Time Offer (OTO) on the Thank you page. On this page highest percentage of purchases are made.

9. Split Testing your Squeeze Page

The best way to move forward and succeed with anything is to test what is working and what is not. By split-testing your Squeeze Page to promote the same offer at the same time you will be able to monitor which one performs the best.

10. Follow-up Emails

This is another most important process for your online business. The first email that is automatically sent is your chance to introduce yourself properly and welcome your new subscriber on-board. The first email will conclude with a link to a download page where visitors can get their free gift. The next email is the start of the follow-up sequence. Here is where you will recommend other affiliate products to your subscriber. But do not lose sight of who you are talking to. Obviously the aim of all of this is to sell ClickBank affiliate products and earn the commissions. But you have to be prepared to be 80% helpful and only 20% sales. The best way to do this is only suggested products that you have personally used and therefore have some experience of. Another extra way to really enforce this technique is to record a short video showing you reviewing the product.

11. TRAFFIC!

Use proper keywords to get targeted traffic to your website, because without that you will not be able to make any money online. Use search power to drive traffic to your squeeze page. For that you need to do:
