Totally Fitness Affiliate Marketing Ideas
This is a short affiliate marketing ideas tutorial that may stimulate your senses to generate sales in a new, creative way. This may be your road to online success with Totally Fitness! These ideas aren’t new or hard to implement however you may want to take these ideas and make them your own. There are many different choices on how to make online commissions. Even if you are a complete novice or are an affiliate marketing guru please read this guide to kick you into affiliate marketing mode.
Find your Niche - Websites that are closely associated with what you are marketing will have a higher click through rate than websites that are not. In our case a website that is targeted at fitness customers will have a better rate of conversion than unrelated sites. For example you could set up a website that provides information on yoga exercises. Alongside you could promote our yoga equipment. Or start a website profiling the winners of the Heavyweight Championship of World. Profile our boxing range too!
Copy is King - The most basic part of SEO (search engine optimisation) is that web spiders pick up on unique content. If you copy and paste any information onto your website the web spiders will ignore it and will not rate your website highly. If you don’t have strong copywriting skills rewrite the copied information. Information directly copied and pasted may even have a negative effect on your website. Also spelling mistakes will cause your website to fall in rankings. As you write articles for your website, weave affiliate links into them. Write your articles as if you are speaking directly to your visitor. Your task as an affiliate marketer is to solve your visitor’s problem. Discuss the topic in general, offer a good solution that has worked for you, end the article with a link which is a call for action, i.e. "learn more here". As an affiliate marketer you don't do the actual selling, you do the pre-selling and warm up your visitor. You want to set your visitor in a ready to purchase mode when they arrive at the merchant's site.
Ideas for articles: (the list is endless)
What treadmill is the best for you? What is vibration training and does it really work? Reviews of Yoga and Pilates DVDs. The best way to train using supplements.
After you have written an article (with subtle links) that is interesting be sure to submit it to article directories. You will be pleasantly surprised at how well these directories work! This step will get you a lot of in pointing links and charge your popularity. Also make sure that you keep on adding high quality pages with interesting information. Fresh content is an effective way to maintain your affiliate marketing business.
Research SEO - This is not just about affiliate marketing. It’s about general web marketing. More visitors to your website will create more leads. Visitors that come to your website for free are a lot better than customers that have paid through PPC (pay-per-click advertising). Create a website that is loved by search engines. To be found and recognised by the search-engines you will also need in pointing links. Search-engines love sites with many in pointing links, especially if these links come from popular sites. Interesting, useful websites are a lot more likely to be linked to.
User Friendliness - Design a site that is user friendly. If you put too many banners on your site then viewers will most probably leave by clicking the back button. Try to make a connection with your visitors. People are much more likely to buy from you if they like you.
Promotion Ideas - Totally Fitness can be promoted in many different ways. We are happy to help you try and generate sales in any way possible.
• Email marketing - This is proven to be the best way to generate sales through affiliate programmes. If you have a database, large or small, email your customers with information. Again the key here is content. If your email looks like spam it will not be looked at. Have a catchy heading. Incorporate affiliate links carefully within your email. Don’t be too blatant about advertising. Write an email that someone wants to read! Often viewers have opted in to receive emails. They want to hear from you.
• Pay per click advertising - There are numerous search engines that have advertising schemes. The main PPC programmes are through Google, Yahoo and MSN. Totally Fitness bid on many keywords, with a large budget so this is a hard area to compete in, as you are competing directly against us. I recommend in being creative in this area. Bid on keywords that are related to the sports industry but are not directly related to fitness. For example “Training for Karate? Treadmills on Sale, Buy Now”. You get the idea! Promote our site in another language. We don’t do this. If you have language skills use them on Google Adwords! Research keywords - Know what our buyers are searching for. Use these keywords in your marketing material and on your website.
• Website adverts - We have uploaded many attractive banners that you can display on your website. There are a variety of products on these banners and also many different options of sizes. There is also the option of using pop-up ads. Many people hate these but they must work some of the time! Classified advertising is also a viable option however is less likely to drive quality traffic.
• Offline marketing - You can still promote your website in the traditional ways. Flyers on windscreens, direct mail campaigns, bug your local radio DJ. Any more traffic to your site means more chances of click throughs.
We have a product feed uploaded onto Affiliate Window. You can display our products on your website and deeplink directly back to our website. This is an effective way to drive webtraffic. As we have a lot of products we have only uploaded a selection of our best products. However there is nothing stopping you linking to products not on the product feed.
To give you a flying head start here is a list of our top selling products which I thoroughly recommend that you promote. These are the easiest products to sell and are by far the most popular:
