Do you have a solid foundation where you have mastered the elements of successful affiliate marketing? The successful affiliate marketers have mastered the essential core elements of conversion.

Study and Research – Identify what to feed to a hungry niche market. When you can pinpoint what the market is looking for, it's easy to deliver the product to them. So explore, brainstorm and research before selecting a product to market to them. Spend some time on Google Trends and research.

Test it out - Before trying to generate huge amounts of traffic, create a small test campaign with a few ultra targeted keywords to see if it converts. Traffic to your site is good, but conversions from the traffic is what counts. Testing it out first makes it easy to track because the campaign is small.

Doing your job – Affiliate marketing is all about PRE-selling. Let the merchant do the selling. Your role should be to provide value. Help your audience find what they are looking. Find a solution to their problem. Avoid the concept of sell/sell and embrace the concept of PRE-sell/sell. If you can put yourself in front of your customers pc and visualize yourself as them, you can certainly PRE-sell.

Capture Page – A well thought out landing page that is of high quality, relevant and full of keywords accomplishes two things perfectly. It creates your brand of high value and allows big daddy (aka Google) to see the keywords you advertise under as relevant. So learn to build it, and they will come.

Seduce Google – Make yourself attractive to Google and all of the other major PPC services out there. Pay less than all of your competitors when Google thinks your style of advertising is attractive. Pay TONS when you use PPC's the wrong way. An understanding of how these services work will help conversions.

Be Specific – Lots of traffic, no conversions and no money in your bank account is the result of bidding on keywords that are to general. Bidding on a term like "fishing gear" is not productive. How about "deep sea fishing gear albacore tuna" or even more specific than that. Make a customer say, "Awesome! Exactly what I was searching for."."

Build the list – If you don't capture your customer's email address you're leaving the money on table. It's going to take around 6 or more contacts from you before the purchase so follow-up. Even better, is the option to market to them in the future for free.

I've never underestimated the importance of learning what the successful affiliate marketers are doing. Do it and be much better off.
