Simple Bing Ads Affiliate Marketing Strategy


Although Google makes up for the majority of search engine and PPC traffic on the Internet, Bing still accounts for about a third of all search engine traffic, which is pretty significant.
And the advantage of advertising with Bing Ads is that they're much more forgiving than AdWords as well as affiliate marketer friendly.
Bing Ads allows affiliate marketers to direct link to their affiliate offers, which saves a step of creating a custom landing page for each offer you want to run.
This makes Bing Ads an easier traffic source to get started with for newbies.
Now, there are tons of different strategies out there when it comest to PPC (pay-per-click) and if you're really serious about mastering PPC and scaling then I would definitely recommend investing in a solid tracking software like TrackingDesk.
But in this post I want to give you one idea that can help you get started as an affiliate marketer when advertising on Bing Ads.
With whatever product or offer you decide to promote...
Try to make a connection to that offer by targeting keywords that get a lot of traffic but have very low competition and are dirt cheap per click.
You can research these keywords in the Bing Ads Keyword Planner tool.
One example of obvious keywords to target for a product would be...
Product: ClickFunnels
Keyword(s): Any long or short tail keywords related to ClickFunnels
Some not so obvious keywords to target for a different product would be...
Product: A product that teaches people how to make money with Amazon Kindle
Keywords(s): Target generic keywords like "amazon" or titles and authors of specific but popular books
Another example of not so obvious keywords to target for a different product would be...
Product: A diet/weight loss offer
Keywords(s): Target the names of popular and sexy celebrities that have sexy bodies
So, that's an overview of the strategy.
But the other element you'll need to get better at is copywriting, since the better you can write an ad, the higher your clickthrough rate will be and the more money you'll make.
To master the art of copywriting I would check out these books...
  • Ca$hvertising
  • The Irresistible Offer
  • How To Write Copy That Sells
  • How To Writing A Good Advertisement
And I'd also recommend checking out some of these PPC spy tools to reverse-engineer successful ads that are already working for some of your competitors...

SEO Strategies For Affiliate Marketing

SEO (search engine optimization) is actually pretty simple. It mainly comes down to two things: on page SEO and off page SEO. On page SEO just means  optimizing your content  to rank for certain keywords. The main elements on the page you want to make sure and include your target keywords are your Title and URL. As far as the body itself don't worry so much about using the exact phrases you're going after word for word... It's more important that you concentrate on providing as much value as possible and writing for humans instead of trying to  keyword stuff  and trying to maintain a certain  keyword density . The other half of the SEO equation is off page SEO. This just means backlinks or  links from other high authority or relevant sites  pointing to the piece of content you're trying to rank. Off page SEO is also pretty simple - it mostly comes down to... The authority of sites linking to yours The relevance of the sites linki...

How To Engineer Your Own Paycheck With Affiliate Marketing

Years ago I was suckered into an  Amway  pitch... But I did get one valuable takeaway that I still use today. During their spiel, the couple who was trying to persuade me to join Amway explained it like this... "Don't think of Amway as an expense. Because all you're really doing is simply redirecting a few dollars each month that you're spending anyway on household products and purchasing Amway products instead of some of the products that you buy at the supermarket." So, I like to apply this same approach with affiliate marketing. Most products and services pay you in money. However, some reward you with credit toward their product. So, if I'm subscribing to a service like this, I'll do my best to refer enough people on a regular basis to cancel out my subscription cost. One example is a meal delivery service called  HelloFresh . I have to eat anyway and since HelloFresh has a refer program that rewards me in credits towards my subscri...

How To Promote Clickbank Offers Using Bing Ads

One of the oldest, most popular, and easiest affiliate networks to get started with is  Clickbank . And one of the fastest methods of getting results online is paid traffic. PPC (pay-per-click)  is one of the more popular paid traffic sources, especially for beginners. Pay-per-click basically works like SEO (search engine optimization) but on steroids. So, instead of optimizing content perfectly and waiting for it to rank, you just pay to show up. However, when it comes to promoting affiliate offers, or, more specifically,  direct linking to affiliate offers , huge networks like Google AdWords aren't usually that friendly. But, luckily  Bing Ads  is a lot more open to affiliate marketers and allows you to direct link to your affiliate offers. So, if you're just getting started with: affiliate marketing, promoting Clickbank offers, or Bing Ads in general this is something that works. Now, to give yourself a little more of an edge though over all...
