			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>By Nikola Janovic</em></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve used a lot of different affiliate marketing methods and find one of them to be the most effective.</p>
<p><strong>Article marketing</strong> is cool, except the article directory gets to keep all the ad revenue and they are getting more particular about what articles they accept.</p>
<p><strong>Review sites</strong> are OK, but does anyone really trust the reviews they read on those sites anymore? Most people know by now that review sites are just disguised sales pitches and aren&#8217;t honest reviews.</p>
<p><strong>Social media</strong> is fun, but it has its limits. It&#8217;s more about socializing, less about doing business. Sure, you can make connections there but at the end of the day the lion&#8217;s share of your profits likely isn&#8217;t coming from social media.  Social media sites are not the most important place on the web.</p>
<p>So what is?</p>
<p><strong><em>Your own blog.</em></strong> In my opinion, there&#8217;s nothing like having your own blog, especially if you use WordPress. WordPress makes blogging much easier and more effective.</p>
<p>Your blog is your castle. <strong>YOU</strong> get to decide which content to put on it and don&#8217;t have to wait a week for someone else to approve it.  <strong>YOU</strong> get to keep your ad revenue. If you use Google Adsense, however, chances are it&#8217;s more like Google Adcents. And don&#8217;t get me started on Google slaps.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s more effective to promote affiliate products on your blog rather than rely on Adsense. Affiliate commissions have a much higher payout than ad clicks.</p>
<p>One option is to have a &#8220;<strong>blog sponsor</strong>&#8221; section in your sidebar. Place ads here (preferably with eye-catching graphics rather than just text) that link to select affiliate products and also your own products if you have any.</p>
<p>Another option is to occasionally write a blog post that promotes an affiliate product. The posts should contain solid content in addition to the sales pitch. Write the post as if you were talking to a friend so that it doesn&#8217;t come across as too sales-y.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget to have an <strong>opt-in form</strong> on your blog so that you can collect the email addresses of your blog readers.  You can occasionally promote affiliate products through email to your list. You should also send out emails that contain helpful, engaging content. You can use your blog posts as content but you should also use original content in your emails too. Mix it up.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s one type of text ad that I highly recommend and that&#8217;s &#8220;<strong>WordPress Affiliate Clickbank Plugin</strong>&#8221; that automatically inserts professional-looking ads for Clickbank products on your blog:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.informationempire.com/wpa"><strong>WordPress Affiliate Clickbank Plugin</strong></a></p>
<p>The WordPress Affiliate ClickBank Plugin makes it <strong>extremely easy</strong> to insert <em><strong>targeted</strong></em> ClickBank affiliate text link ads into your WordPress blogs.</p>
<p>It comes with a <strong>100% &#8220;no questions asked&#8221; 30-day money back gurantee</strong>, so you can test it out and if it doesn&#8217;t work for you then you can get a full refund!  So there&#8217;s nothing to loose!<strong>Similar Posts:</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;re serious about getting tons of traffic from the search engines, there is one thing that is core to the concept of getting free traffic from Google, MSN and Yahoo&#8230; <strong>Keyword research</strong>!</p>
<p>Choosing the right keywords to optimise your website for is absolutely <strong>essential</strong>.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s no good adding high traffic, high competition keywords to your website as you will never rank for them, unless you have a high budget and can afford to spend thousands of dollars on SEO and getting backlinks.<span id="more-363"></span></p>
<p>A much better tactic, and one we have used to much success here at Information Empire, is to find out what keywords are related to our topic, find out how many people are searching for each keyword, then find out how much competition there is for that term.</p>
<p>By filtering this list down, we can focus on a core list of keywords that we know we will get traffic from with the minimal of effort.</p>
<p>There are many manual &#8211; and time intensive &#8211; ways of creating these lists, but for the past couple of years we have used a great service from Jim Morris called <a title="Nichebot" href="http://www.informationempire.com/nichebot" target="_blank"><strong>Nichebot</strong></a> &#8211; and this tool has saved us hundreds of hours of manual work and made us great profits as we always know what keywords to target in our SEO efforts.</p>
<p>Anyway, Jim has recently recorded a 2 hour webinar called <strong>&#8220;The 10 Commandments to Succesful Keyword Research&#8221;</strong> that will show you how to demolish your competition in the search engines, and it&#8217;s completely <strong>free</strong> to watch.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s <strong>no registration or email optin required</strong>, so you can just <a title="Free Nichebot Webinar" href="http://www.informationempire.com/nichebot-webinar" target="_blank">watch the video</a> right away &#8211; and make sure you have a pen and paper handy to take plenty of notes! There&#8217;s a lot to learn here, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>What your ultimate objective should be with keyword research</li>
<li>The 4 key roles keywords play to your online presence</li>
<li>Why market research is <strong>not </strong>keyword research</li>
<li>How accurate keyword research actually is</li>
<li>What reasons you should have for doing keyword research and why different<br />
reasons require different tools</li>
<li>The essential elements to entering your targeted web surfers mind, and why<br />
it&#8217;s all about them and not you!</li>
<li>The two things you must do today to improve your keyword positioning immediately</li>
</ul>
<p>This is a very enjoyable and informative 2 hours, so make sure you get yourself a beverage of your choice, put your feet up, and make sure you won&#8217;t be distracted by anyone or anything to get the full benefit of this <strong>free &#8211; </strong>$97 value &#8211; webinar as soon as you can!</p>
