Building That Affiliate Site


As discussed in my previous post, there are a lot of MFA(Made for Adsense) sites abound and not as noticable, made for affiliate sites. The question that arises is how do you know what type of product to focus on, when building a site for the sole purpose of earning revenue off of affiliating. The answer is not simple and does not come quick, so brace yourself...'A lot of research'."

A webdeveloper could easily regurgitate a website using existing content and about zero marketing. However, will this site be successful, will there automatically be traffic? Unfortunately, the 'build it they will come' does not pertain to the internet world. For this site to be successful the owner needs to focus attention on marketing the site. One of the quickest and easiest ways to do this is to use Google Adsense, as an Advertiser.

A website owner can get started advertising through the Adsense network for as little as $5.00. The trick to utilizing every click is to focus on quality ads that truly target the market you looking to sell to. In addition, finding the keywords that are not being heavily bid on will help in your search for good ROI(Return on Investment).

To by cheap and sell high is the name of the game and will require research and time. Luckily there are tools available on the net which allow you to see what the going rate for keyword is. By doing research up front, you can save a lot of nickels in the future. In the long run, these 'thrown up' sites can pay off, IF they are marketed properly.
