It is true however that if you want the best chance to succeed as an affiliate marketer you need to have a website of your own. O.K enough on that. Now let's talk about how to design your affiliate marketing website to get the results you want.
Your affiliate marketing website has 2 goals.
1. Capture contact information from your visitor.
2. Get the click through to your affiliate sales page.
That is basically all you need. You want to get the names and email addresses for future follow up because most of your visitors will not buy on the first visit. They need to be exposed as many as 10-15 times.
So you need a sign up form or box where they can type their name and email address. To increase your chances to get that you need to offer them something so enticing that they can not resist. Think about what would appeal to you and then offer to give it to them.
Next let's talk about how to get the click through to your affiliate sales page. Even better is get them to click through in a buying frame of mind.
You do this by braggin about the product you are selling. you just talk about what you like about best about the product you are selling which makes it easy to do.
Do you know the best way to do that? Buy the product and write from a firsthand experience. When you do this you will be way ahead of 95% of your competitors because they will not be their own best customer.
Getting this on a web page does not have to be fancy. It should be professional and you should check you grammar and spelling to make sure that is correct too!
If you are not sure how to build a web page consider setting up a free blog with Blogger.com and let their software build the pages for you. Then all you have to do is type in your pre-selling comments and then list your affiliate i.d for them to click on. It does not get any easier than that.
