Best products from r/Affiliatemarketing

Sorry for the delay in answering, been busy.

Cold email is tough. There is a huge amount of psychology that goes into getting high open rates from decent people.

There are ways to get 95% open rates on email. With weight-loss as the example, you could get a crazy open rate with a subject line of "Pic's of your husband/boyfriend you need to see" and target women.

You could do the same in reverse when targeting men, but you can be assured you would rarely make a sale.

Some of the most successful open rates I have seen have been from question based subject lines, but unless they've opted in, your success rate will be dismal.

Cold emails should be very specifically targeted and work better in the B2B field compared to any others.

This is a great resource for cold emails (https://salesfolk.com/blog/). They dig deep into why and have a free course. It's worth it, just don't buy anything. Anything you need to know about marketing online is available free on YouTube, social media and blogs, you just have to test and sift the wheat from the chaff.

Now, for weight-loss, you would be better off with a blog, awesome content and guest posting.

I personally hate wasting time and resources, so I tend to build long term assets, like a blog/website or Facebook fan type pages.

I would then build squeeze pages for opt ins so everyone that get's your email has already shown an interest.

SEO is cheap if you DIY, Facebook ads are cheap if you understand a few human "triggers". One of the first things ever marketer needs is "Persuasion, the psychology of influence" (https://www.amazon.com/Influence-Psychology-Persuasion-Robert-Cialdini/dp/006124189X) - (Not an affiliate link).

Copywriting is the biggest part of conversion no matter the traffic method. The more targeted the message, the better the results.

Now, for most niches, you have to tone the hard pitch down, but the principles still apply and are very effective.

Learn to mix story telling into your copy and you have a beast once you get it fine tuned.

This should be enough to get you pointed in the right direction.

10 years and you still write like someone who's trying to impress his English teacher. Your writing would sound old-fashioned even for a cover letter. This is not how you move inventory in 2018.

May I interest you in the Plain English initiative? Hey, Whipple, Squeeze This would also be a good read for you

This is exactly the kind of feedback I was hoping for. I hadn't heard of viglink or skimlinks. What I'm doing is definitely similar to viglink, although instead of searching for specific keywords, I search for hrefs.

Currently Affiliate Crawler isn't differentiating itself well from these existing products (especially viglink), after a quick skim through what they do.

I've been toying with the idea of doing some kind of n-gram searches against affiliate program products (like Amazon) so look for additional affiliate opportunities that may have slipped through the cracks (e.g., I mention "Terminator" in an article, it could recommend an affiliate link to The Terminator).

Think of it this way. If the offer is a car for sale on the car lot, your landing page is the salesman. There's a million ways they can add value, but more than that, they are intended to drive the intended action. Just like the car salesman, the affiliates landing page, turns that passively interested person into a buyer.

If we talk about the handsome commission, then you ought to go for Cryptocurrency because this is hot nowadays. And if you want to market famous products, then you should go for obviously iPhone products like a screen protector and iPhone armband etc etc....

Sort of. The affiliate ID is in the link (in bold). Most of the time it will be their store name if they have one. You can use that to find the store. I use numbers for mine. It's harder to tell.

I've created something that links to my affiliate link to this product https://www.amazon.co.uk/amazing-people-about-because-reddit/dp/1910223263/.

I tested it on a real phone so I'll wait and see if it gets picked up in my affiliate account.

The bad news (I've just discovered) is you can't open a product with your affiliate link from your own app to the Amazon Shopping App.
