Hey there, folks! Joey Babineau here from Powerhouse Affiliate, and today, I’m thrilled to take you on a deep dive into the world of affiliate marketing. Buckle up because I’m about to spill the beans on how I’ve been consistently raking in $150 in profit every single day.
Let’s rewind the clock a bit, shall we? My journey in affiliate marketing started way back, back when dial-up internet was still a thing and MySpace ruled the social media scene. Fast forward to 2015, I kissed my corporate gig goodbye and decided to take the plunge into full-time affiliate marketing. And let me tell you, it’s been one heck of a ride since then!
Oh by the way I recently did all of this post in a video you can watch here if you like that better:
Now, let’s talk about the secret sauce—the numero uno traffic source for affiliate marketers just like you who are starting out with a shoestring budget.
Drumroll, please! It’s none other than…search ads.
Here are some results from one of my latest campaigns using this method:
26%+ Conversion rate!!
Search ads are like the bread and butter of affiliate marketing, especially for newbies dipping their toes into the game of online moneymaking.
So, picture this: you’re a newbie affiliate marketer, eager to make your mark in the digital world. You’ve got a killer offer lined up, but the big question is—how do you drive traffic to it?
That’s where search ads swoop in to save the day. They’re like your trusty sidekick, helping you reach your target audience with pinpoint accuracy and efficiency.
But wait. Before you go guns blazing into the world of search ads, there’s some groundwork to be laid.
How to Pick Affiliate Offers
First things first—you gotta pick the right offer. And let me tell you, not all offers are created equal. For search ads, especially on platforms like Microsoft Ads, you will want to target an older demographic. Think skincare, anti-aging products.
Now, where do you find these golden nuggets of offers?
Allow me to introduce you to MaxWeb. It’s a good source of video sales letter affiliate offers spanning across various niches—from e-commerce to health and wellness. Trust me, you’ll find something that resonates with your target audience.
First off, choosing the right offer is key. We’re not talking about flashy gimmicks here—we’re talking about offers that truly resonate with your target audience. Think practical, think valuable, and think about what your audience really needs. Now, according to Maxweb’s data analysis, offers in the skincare and anti-aging niche tend to perform well, with an average conversion rate of around 3.28%.
Moving on to traffic generation, it’s all about testing, tweaking, and finding what works best for you. Whether it’s SEO, social media, or email marketing, experimentation is key.
Planning With Data
But here’s where the numbers come into play: based on what Maxweb says on the conversion rates, and our calculations using the Media Buyer Spreadsheet, (available in Powerhouse Affiliate Members Area) if we drive 1000 clicks to our landing page with a 45% click-through rate, this would result in 400 clicks to the offer. I also know that the average cost per click on Microsoft Ads for skin care related KWs is $1.08 per click. So knowing all of these numbers and plugging them into our spreadsheet we see that this could potentially yield a 26% ROI.
Now, let’s talk landing pages. Your landing page needs to be laser-focused and optimized for conversions. None of that generic stuff—it needs to speak directly to your audience and compel them to take action. And guess what? Our data shows that a well-optimized landing page can get click-through rates as high as 50%-60% CTR.
Alright, now onto setting up our ad campaigns. Crafting killer ad copy, targeting the right keywords, and optimizing our bids are all crucial steps. But here’s where things get interesting: based on our cost-per-click analysis, targeting specific keywords related to skincare and anti-aging can help keep our ad costs down while still driving quality traffic. You can also consider targeting different countries and different angles to bring your click costs down lower.
But let’s not forget about tracking our metrics like hawks. Our trusty spreadsheet helps us keep tabs on everything—from click-through rates to conversion rates to profitability. And speaking of profitability, negotiating those sweet payout bumps with affiliate networks can significantly boost our bottom line. Based on our projections, even a modest increase in payout can lead to a substantial increase in profit margin.
So there you have it, folks—the data-driven approach to making $150 a day in affiliate marketing. It’s not a cakewalk, but with the right strategies and a little number-crunching, it’s definitely within reach. So let’s roll up our sleeves, dive in, and make it happen.
Remember, success doesn’t come easy, but with hard work, determination, and a little bit of data, anything is possible. Cheers to your success!
