2. Purchase URL

For the selection of URLs, it was very popular to use keyword URLs (Exact Match Domain, or EMD for short). For example, CoffeeMachineReviews.com, BestHairDryers.com included keywords in the domain.

The other is the currently popular brandable domain. This type of domain name is suitable for building your own brand, which is conducive to gaining popularity and becoming an authority site. Such as CoffeeFanatics.com, BeautyQueen.com.

Afu feels that there are advantages and disadvantages between the two. It may be faster to use keyword URLs in the initial stage, but the expansion of website content is often limited by the keywords in the station name. Therefore, it is difficult to develop into a large website.

In the past few years, Affiliate Networks has contacted more than 30 Affiliate Networks. It covers a wide range of countries and regions, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Israel, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Malaysia.

So what should you pay attention to when choosing a good affiliate marketing platform?
Make sure there are no products you want to promote on the platform
The company's reputation is better – try to choose a company with a large scale and a long-term operation. At the same time, pay more attention to whether there are any negative reviews on the Internet. For example, the distribution of profit sharing bonuses is not punctual or the commission of promoters is maliciously deducted
Ways of requesting money – Generally, the distribution of bonuses is mainly through PayPal, bank transfer or check.
The minimum amount of bonus payment – ​​the current general standard is about $100 or more before it will be issued. Of course, the lower the specified amount, the better it will be for you.

6. Apply to join the affiliate marketing platform

Membership applications for most affiliate marketing platforms or the Affiliate Program are free. The difficulty level of each company’s qualification review is also different. Generally speaking, CPA-based platforms will review more Strict. Sometimes there will be a phone interview.

In fact, sometimes the application for membership will be rejected, so try a few other companies, and there will always be places that are accepted. In addition, you may wish to cooperate with Skimlinks , an intermediary service provider for affiliate marketing .

7. How to choose an affiliate marketing promotion plan

The promotion programs in the affiliate marketing platform often exceed hundreds or even more than a thousand, and sometimes it is quite difficult to choose. Navi4you has sorted out some points to be considered here as a basis for selection:

① The products to be promoted are best related to the content of the website – for  example, if a travel blog sells cleaning robots. It may seem quite abrupt.

② Try to sell popular products – Most of the affiliate platforms will make a ranking list for popular products with high transaction volume. You can make good use of this statistical data to find ideal products for marketing.

Generally, hot-selling products have several characteristics as follows – good reputation of the brand, excellent quality of products, high conversion rate of transactions, good profit sharing bonus, etc.

③ Shop around, don’t suffer – sometimes on different platforms, you will find exactly the same products, but the commissions given by each platform are different. At this time, you have to make comparisons diligently and pick out Programs with high bonuses to promote.

④ Find the sweet spot of the best selling price of the product – if the product is cheap, you will get less bonus. If the unit price of the product is high, it may be difficult to sell, and you will not get a commission .

How to find out the popular transaction price, increase the number of orders (more performance bonus), it may take a while to observe and analyze by yourself.

⑤ The longer the validity period of the tracking code (cookie), the better – the tracking code of the Amazon Affiliate Program is only valid for one day. If the visitor goes to Amazon to shop through the promotion link, if the transaction is not completed within 24 hours, they will not get the commission.

In the current promotion plans of manufacturers, the validity period of cookies is mostly within 30 days to 90 days. It is better for you to choose a marketing plan with a longer cookie validity period.

⑥ Choose products that are not easy to be eliminated – some electronic products, the frequency of new updates is very high, if you promote this type of products, you must update the marketing copy every once in a while. It will cause a lot of work burden.

For example, you specialize in promoting popular mobile phones, and on your blog, you introduce more than 20 styles in one go. However, a new model comes out the next year, so you have to obediently change the promotion content again.

Think about it, this will be very tiring. Therefore, when looking for product sales, it is best to choose something that will not be out of fashion (such as ergonomic chairs) to promote.

⑦ Pay attention to promotion restrictions – Many affiliate programs will have promotion restrictions. If you do not comply with these norms, your transaction bonus will be confiscated. It is equivalent to doing white labor.

Similar restrictions, such as, when operating keyword advertising (PPC, Pay per Click), prohibit the purchase of brand-related words.

In addition, some network traffic pipelines may also be on the banned list. For example, you cannot use pop-up windows (pop) for promotions.

⑧ Confirm that the manufacturer's product landing page (landing page) is highly persuasive - when a visitor comes to the manufacturer's product page through your promotion link, if he finds the content of the introduction boring, the persuasion is very low. Then this order There will be no deal. You also won't get the bonus.

Therefore, when choosing an affiliate program, you must first determine whether the manufacturer's product page is very attractive. Make customers willing to place an order.

 8. Do CPS or CPA affiliate program, which one will be more profitable?

There are people in these two camps who have made very considerable income. Most of the CPS-type promotion programs are carried out through websites/blogs. Once the website has considerable traffic, it can bring in closed orders one after another, and then become a very popular Good passive income channel.

In addition, many people will sell the website at a price of about 30 times the average monthly income after making the website profitable. That is to say, if the monthly income of the website's affiliate marketing is 10,000 yuan, you have the opportunity to sell it in a similar Flippa On the website auction platform , he made 300,000 yuan for himself.

As for those who operate CPA, many people choose to use a large amount of advertising (media buy) to operate. The advantage of it is that you can immediately buy a huge amount of traffic to operate the affiliate program, and the speed of making money will be very fast.

 
Although this type of advertising operation is very profitable, it requires high capital and technical requirements.

First of all, there is a time lag between paying to buy ads and actually receiving commissions, so you will encounter cash flow problems.

At the technical level, there are more problems to be dealt with in advertising, such as:

• Choice of web traffic type: What kind of traffic do you use to advertise. Google keyword traffic, social media traffic, native ads, pop up/under traffic, push notification traffic, etc. The price and quality of each kind of traffic are different, so you need to know how to adjust.
• Selection and operation of advertising platforms: Google Ads , FB ads and many third-party ad traffic exchanges (Outbarin, PopAds…)
• Operation and use of ad trackers: Trackers are an indispensable tool for measuring the effectiveness of advertising. Such as Voluum .
• Enhancement of web host and application of Content Delivery Network (CDN, Content Delivery Network) settings. Make the landing page more responsive.
• The use of advertising copy analysis tools (ad spying tools): It is mainly used to analyze the advertising copy of competitors. To inspire more marketing inspiration. Such as WhatRunsWhere, AdPlexity.
• Ad copy and landing pages are constantly being optimized and improved to increase conversion rates

The technical projects of these advertisements can be described as dazzling, and people who are new to it may be dazzled. Therefore, using paid advertisements to operate CPA affiliate marketing is more suitable for experienced people to operate.

SEO beyond Google

Generally speaking, SEO in the narrow sense is only optimized for traditional search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft Bing. Since Google's market share exceeds 80%, everyone's focus is almost on Google.

However, the search habits of Internet users are also gradually evolving, and many people begin to like to get answers by watching videos, so they will search for videos directly on YouTube.

Today’s YouTube has become the second most-used search engine in the world besides Google, and the platform itself has gradually developed a set of different SEO ranking methods.

In fact, many high-traffic e-commerce platforms (such as Shopee) or social media have their own set of internal search ranking mechanisms. If they can be researched and used effectively, they can bring in many potential customers. Internet traffic .

How to do SEO Search Engine Optimization

Although several different search engines have been mentioned above, this article will only focus on Google's SEO, after all, it is currently the leader in this field.

Operating website SEO can be roughly divided into two major areas: on site SEO and off site SEO. But before operating, you must first make enough effort on the content of the website.

Content is King

Good articles can be said to be the backbone of SEO optimization. In addition to making visitors willing to spend time reading and increasing dwell time on the page, high-quality content is also easy to be reposted or shared on the Internet. Comes with many backlinks, which indirectly also help the page's ranking on Google.

Keywords are the determinant of SEO success or failure
If you are a freelance worker who helps people optimize their SEO websites, then the ranking of keywords will become an indicator of work performance. As long as the planned keywords are squeezed into the first page of Google search, you will be able to successfully ask customers Paid.

What are the keywords (keywords), in short, the query words that everyone enters in the Google search box.

From the point of view of SEO, writing good content is only half the battle. If the keywords are not well mastered, the page may not be visited by people, which means that there is no network traffic.

Inappropriate keywords often lead to the following two situations:

• Your article topic is very unpopular, very few people are searching, and your page is uninteresting
• The topic of the article is very popular, and many people are writing it. Although the search volume of the keyword is very large, because of the fierce competition, your page ranking becomes very low, making it difficult for visitors to find it.

Kind of keyword

Just mentioned that keywords play a very important role in the process of SEO search engine optimization. Now let's take a look at the types of keywords that are often encountered:

1. Primary keywords – also known as seed keywords. These are the words that need the most attention and play in the entire web page.

2. Long tail keywords (long tail keywords) – are words that extend from the main keyword. For example, if the main keyword is "make money", then the long tail keywords can be "how to make money at home", "make money by filling out surveys" "

3. LSI keywords (LSI, Latent Semantic Indexing) - literally translated as "latent semantic indexing". Simply put, it is a word group that is highly related to the main keyword. Generally, when doing Google searches, web pages At the bottom of the page will appear some Google suggested search terms, these are so-called LSI keywords.

When we write articles, we must properly place the above three types of keywords in the content, so that search engines can smoothly include and index these word groups, and become an assistant for search rankings.

In addition, the length of the article is preferably more than 1,000 words. Articles with fewer words often have insufficient depth of content and fewer opportunities to use keywords, so it is not conducive to obtaining good Google rankings.

How to Choose Money Keywords

A keyword with a lot of traffic will not necessarily make money for your blog. We also need to determine where the search intent of the keyword is.

For example, the two keywords "buy a coffee machine" and "how to clean a coffee machine", the first one has the commercial motivation to pay for it, and the gold content is very high. The latter one just wants to know the cleaning method of the coffee machine, and does not spend much money The intent of shopping. So is a keyword that will not make money.

Keywords with high gold content can bring buyer traffic, increase conversion rate, and bring more potential revenue to the website.

As for how to find this type of keywords, in addition to relying on your own experience and judgment, the amount of keyword advertising unit price (CPC, Cost per Click) will also be a good screening method. And this type of data can easily is easily available from the Keyword Planner (more on this later).

Generally speaking, the ideal main keywords of web pages should meet the following three conditions:

• More than a thousand Google searches per month
• low competition
• Gold content is high

A good keyword planner usually has the following important features:

• Keyword Analysis – Including monthly traffic, judging the unit price of keyword advertising with gold content, SEO competition difficulty, etc.
• Analyze your own or competitor's website's popular pages and related SEO data - website authority (DA, Domain Authority), monthly traffic, keyword distribution, etc.
• Keyword ranking of a single page, estimated traffic, number of backlinks, number of social media shares.
• Check the overall SEO optimization of the website and provide suggestions for improvement

At present, most of the easy-to-use analysis tools require payment. For the free part, you can refer to Google's official keyword planner (Google Keyword Planner). However, the disadvantage is that the data on monthly keyword traffic and competition are very general. It will be less efficient.

Recommended keyword analysis tools

1:Ubersuggest

This is the keyword tool provided by the world's top Internet marketing expert Neil Patel (Top 25 of Forbes) , this SEO planning tool is still free at present, but due to the huge operating cost, it has gradually shifted to Paid membership is available. But the free version can still make multiple free inquiries per day.

2. KWFinder

The evaluation in the industry is also good, and the analysis data provided is relatively concise.

3. Ahrefs

This is the SEO planning tool currently used by Afu, which can run very detailed analysis data for websites or keywords. However, due to too many functions and high fees, newcomers may find it difficult to use.

Through the keyword planning tool mentioned above, you can find the ideal primary keyword and related keyword groups in a short period of time. As the content basis for writing articles.

On-Site SEO

The optimization projects on the website are very trivial, and there are many details to be noticed. Fortunately, many of them are only one-time settings, and the time spent is limited. Here, I will apply the spirit of Buddhism, and introduce the simplified version of the internal optimization projects of the website as follows:

• The main keyword should be on the title, and the words should be eye-catching, making people want to click to read
• In the Meta Description part of the article, in addition to containing keywords, the copy should also be able to quickly capture the interest of visitors
• The primary keyword should appear in the first chapter of the article
• In addition to the main keyword, some long-tail keywords and LSI keywords should also be appropriately added to the article.
• The frequency of the keywords should be appropriate, too much will have the opposite effect
• The main and subtitles of the article can use relevant keywords
• According to the importance of the title, apply the appropriate HTML tags: h1, h2, h3
• Contextually relevant pages, to create internal links
• According to the needs of the article content, make external links with relevant high-weight websites (such as WikiPedia)
• Do a good job of image SEO optimization – image file alt text (Alt) in HTML tags uses keywords
• In addition to short URLs, it is best to include keywords
• Use mobile-friendly responsive web pages (RWD, Responsive Web Design)
• Use a thumbnail tool (such as iLoveIMG ) to reduce the size of the image file to speed up the display speed of the web page
• Website using SSL security certificate
• Choose a good web host to make your website more responsive
• Off-Site SEO

In this field of search engine optimization, the main task is to find high-weight related websites for backlinks (external links). In the eyes of Google, this type of link means that people like and recommend your website. If the other party's The higher the authority (weight), the better the ranking of the web page.

In addition to linking through forums or social media, the commonly used (white hat, white hat) methods often use communication channels such as Email to directly contact other webmasters to seek their consent to join external links.

As for how to find a suitable backlink website, there are many techniques and means, but Afu's Buddhist SEO only recommends building a few on relevant forums, social media or blogs in the first few months of the website's opening. Backlinks are fine.

Another reason to emphasize is that if the content of the webpage itself is good, others will take the initiative to link to your website. If the content is not good, it will be very difficult to get backlinks from external sites.

SEO Hacks for WordPress Blogs

At present, more than 35% of the websites in the world use the WordPress website system, so it is often the preferred website building software for building personal blogs.

WordPress itself is an SEO-friendly software. For bloggers, in addition to the above-mentioned SEO operation items, several free plug-ins can be used to enhance the execution.

Highly rated are:

1.Yoast SEO

This plug-in can automatically adjust and suggest the SEO optimization method of web pages, so that your website can better meet Google's indexing needs.

The main functions are as follows:

• Improve the SEO exposure of web pages to facilitate search engine indexing
• Be able to find out the deficiencies in SEO optimization of web pages, and provide timely suggestions to solve them.
• Monitor the appearance density of keywords in web pages to avoid using too many or too few times and affecting search rankings.
• Automatically generate XML sitemaps to facilitate web pages to be quickly crawled and logged by search engines.
• For pages with English content, the readability analysis of the article will be provided
• Simple and easy operation interface

2.WP Super Cache

The display speed of web pages is also one of the important factors affecting Google ranking. In addition to choosing a good web host, the use of website caching technology can also effectively improve the response speed of web pages. This very popular WordPress plug-in provides The following important functions:

• Backup slow WordPress PHP dynamic web pages into static web pages (html), providing the host with fast reading
• It can compress the file of the web page to be smaller, and speed up the transmission speed
• Support Content Delivery Network (CDN, Content Delivery Network) service, which can effectively use the network host in close distance to read the backup webpage faster

Another recommended website cache plugin is W3 Total Cache

The overall function will be more powerful than WP Super Cache, but the setting is relatively complicated.

Get the number one ranking on Google

The spirit of Buddhist SEO is to use the least amount of time to achieve the best search ranking results. However, if you find a web page article that is very profitable, it is a pity that you have not been able to get the top few Google search rankings (the first place is more Good), then you might as well take the time to operate off-site SEO (off-site SEO), so that your revenue has the opportunity to go to the next level.

The focus of off-site SEO is to build backlinks (Link Building), adding backlinks to other people's online media and pointing to their own web pages.

Common practices are as follows:

Comment on online forums, social media or other people's websites
Contribute to an online magazine or seek to have a guest article on someone else's website
in conclusion :
The operation items of SEO search engine optimization are complex and numerous, and it is not simple to be able to fully penetrate them. Many Internet marketing companies make a lot of money by providing SEO website optimization services.

Afu's Buddhist SEO mainly emphasizes selecting good keyword groups first and using them to write high-quality articles. Then, focus on on-site SEO optimization projects.

Although it seems to be too streamlined, it is like the resource allocation problem of the 80/20 rule . If you focus your energy on the most important SEO optimization projects, you will have the opportunity to obtain a significantly advanced Google page ranking score.

This platform also provides many useful promotion links, such as smart advertisements (Native Shopping Ads) that use big data to determine visitors’ preferences, and automatic guidance (OneLink) to Amazon, which is the closest country to the visitor’s location. Shopping online.

In recent years, the Amazon platform has lowered the proportion of rewards and profits several times, and the bonuses that can be earned are not as good as they used to be. However, due to the huge traffic on Amazon’s website and the high purchase rate of customers, it can still generate considerable promotion income. .

The Amazon alliance is subdivided into more than 10 different independent platforms according to the country, and the effect tracking and reward system are independent, and you must apply for membership separately.
