Affiliate Marketing With Social Media Marketing

As an Affiliate Marketer, it s hard enough to get Traffic, much harder to get Sales. While we tend to use PPC and SEO, there s many other ways to get traffic to our Affiliate Landing pages (if you re not using Direct Linking, which I m not sure why you would use JUST direct links!) and one includes Social Media Marketing (SMM). You ve surely heard the term Web 2.0 and it s not going away anytime soon...eventually it will simply morphy, or grow, into Web 3.0. But, for now, Web 2.0 is growing like a Wild Fire and the results are outstanding for those who know how to use these sites correctly. Honestly, I never really took advantage of sites like Digg, StumbleUpon, Reddit and others until recently. The results? Outstanding. I ve gotten some floods of traffic and a few extra sales here and there because of it. Was it worth it? Oh yeah! Look... as an Affiliate, it s your duty to go out and get the traffic - then convert that traffic into sales. So, why would you not take an extra few minutes out of your day to work on your SMM? SEO, PPC, Blog posts and Forum links work great. But when it comes to relatively cheap (depending on what you consider your time being worth) traffic, SMM seems to be the way to go lately. Have you ever watched a Video on YouTube.com and decided to check out the website behind it? Sure you have. Have you ever went to a website, from YouTube, and then purchased a product? Maybe, maybe not... but, the fact is, people do it every day. This is why some Affiliates are making more money by spending less and others are spending more to make less. Social Media Marketing is not just a fad. SMM is the new way of getting massive amounts of Traffic to your website in record time! Jack Humphrey has created a system called Social Power Linking which has helped me realize how powerful this stuff really is. I highly recommend the program for any beginner of Social Media Marketing. But, there ARE ways to learn this stuff...it just depends on the quality of the Book, Blog, Video or Blog posts that will matter in the end. You obviously do not want to take advice from someone who is not considered an Authority in this field. Take advantage of Social Media Marketing and you will reap the rewards in the end!
