Thanks for these points.
I have been marketing various affiliate programs for a while now, and yes, traffic is crucial. As you say, targeting various keywords is good for this, since it brings in interested visitors.
But offline marketing can work well, too, particularly for geo-specific programs. I have been using flyers for a couple of local Australian affiliate programs and that brings in really good traffic. The actual amount is low, but the quality is much better than traffic brought in solely online.
Hi Matt, Thanks for sharing your insight :) I agree that offline marketing works wonder for online-related, geo-specific programs.
free reports with an auto responder messages very helpful, but as a good tip, it is a good idea to get as little information as possible out of people, pretty much just their e-mail address.
Bethany, Yes - free reports are always working well. People love freebies...
My favorite part in promoting my products is through Web 2.0 and link building. I learn a lot from your post. Thanks for sharing!

thanks for Sharing these idea! good post.
Hi umbildee, I think so, too :)
“Linking reviews on the products you want to sell is the first rule to follow.”
According to me this type of linking should be avoided in case you are an affiliate yourself. Why do you want you customers to buy from some other affiliate’s review pages by linking to it?
Matt, Hmm... I guess you're right. I guess I have to clarify that the reviews must be related to you in some ways - e.g. Amazon product reviews linking through your Amazon affiliate links...
Great information especially about links and how it impacts on profits. “The main reason is that the more traffic you can generate the more income you get and the more successful you become.” I have just started to use some of your information and have already seen positive results. I also try not to over do it but gradually build the links over time so Google does not get upset. I also link back to relevant sites of authroity in teh niche I am even if I am not getg a monetory advantage, its about getting acceptance by Google I have heard. So use your link section in your blog to have external links. By placing adsense or affiliate ads above this you will be able to push these links below the fold and not get too many people clicking away from you.
Hi Claude, Relevance is king right now. Pagerank is no longer that important, compared to getting back link from low PR but relevant sites. Regarding the bounce, putting links for SEO purpose way down below is important indeed, such as the footer links...
