Ok, you have heard all the hype about affiliate marketing and you ready to take action. That is all good.
Furthermore, you have probably gotten a load of different tips about where to start and how to start; what to do and what not to do.
You are probably sure that all these tips on affiliate marketing will work, but worse of all, you are probably stuck in the "affiliate marketer's block". What do you do?
It must be said that every affiliate marketer uses a combination of various methods in identifying profitable products to promote. It may take a combination of a few tricks before a winning formula is found. To save you some time in this endeavour, you may want to consider the following 2 ways for spotting a profitable affiliate product to promote.
1. Get a Profitable Niche
There are many people out there who suggest promoting products that are related to your interests or hobbies. While these opinions are understandable, it is also necessary to consider the profitability of the niche/product.If you do find profitable products that are also in line with your hobbies, you have found a gold mine.
But if you find a profitable niche that is not in line with your interest, the best advice I will give is to make a decision based on your current needs. This simply means, if your desire is to rake in higher income, then, you may as well promote products that will meet that need. Later on, when you feel you have gained some financial stability, you may choose to promote products/niches that are more incline with your area of interest.
That said, how do you find profitable niches? One way is to Google: "AdWords keyword tool external". This takes you to a site on which you can type-in niches of your choice. The aim of this is to identify the search volume of the niche you indicated in the search box of this site.
In other words, if you find an appreciable search volume for your niche, then it is likely that people will be interested in a product you promote related to that niche. Search volumes that are greater than 1,000 and less than 30,000, can be said to be appreciable. Going for much higher search volume keyword niches is not a bad idea. However we want to focus on getting a decent number of people finding the product you are promoting.
2. Tailor The Niche to a Profitable Product
After completing the above task, you will need to get a profitable product to promote, which is related to the niche you have selected. A way of doing this is by going to ClickBank and search for products in the niche you have identified.
ClickBank offers an array of products in various categories, so, you may be spoilt for choice. However, take note of the gravity value and Avg %/sale of the products in your chosen niche/category. High values for both gravity and Avg %/sale for a product indicates a good product to promote.
