=> Great Content
The most important ingredient in
getting someone to pay for something is trust and
credibility.
If you have trust and credibility
with someone, you don't have to sell something very hard to
get them to buy it. On the other hand, if you have no
credibility, it's hard to sell someone on something even if
you tried your best to sell the product.
Building trust online comes down to
providing great content. Provide great content and genuinely
impress your visitor. Then and only then will they give you
credibility - And give your links credibility.
=> Pre-Selling
Rather than trying to get people to
buy by saying "buy buy buy," try pre-selling.
Pre-selling can take many forms.
Here are three:
- Selling the problem. Rather than
selling the product directly, play up the problem. Make them
really see how big a deal the problem is, then recommend
your product as the solution.
- Sell the solution. Sell a specific
type of solution, then recommend your product. For example,
talk about the benefits of a natural cure for acne rather
than using unhealthy chemicals. Then recommend your product
which is a natural cure for acne.
- Pre-selling your affiliate product
directly. Share your experience or other people's
experiences as well as its main points. Don't push too hard,
but build up excitement and let the merchant do the actual
selling.
=> Split Testing
Building an affiliate page that
sells is a lot about split testing. You may not build a
successful page the first time around, but if you split test
consistently you will eventually have a page that converts.
There are a few things you should
split test on your affiliate page:
1) The headline. It's one of the
main factors that determines your success.
2) The affiliate offer. Try
different products and prices. Try both pay per sale and CPA
offers. This too is one of the main things that can affect
your conversion.
3) The call to action. Try testing
various different versions of the call to action, including
the buy button.
4) Where you make the
recommendation. Do you do it all the way at the bottom of
the page, or do you take a stab at getting the sale right up
front? Try both and see what kind of results you get.
