How To Leverage The Power Of Quora For Affiliate Marketing


If you haven't heard of the site Quora, you're missing out.
It's kind of like Yahoo Answers v2.0...on steroids.
Quora is currently one of the top 100 websites in the world (according to Alexa), and is a platform where people can go to get their questions answered about anything they want to ask.
In addition to being a question and answer platform, Quora also gives you the ability to create your own blog, where you can share what you know with the world, have people follow you, and build your own audience and tribe.
So, in regards to affiliate marketing, Quora provides a tremendous opportunity.
Unlike a lot of other similar platforms in the past, Quora actually gives you the freedom to sprinkle in your affiliate links to the questions you answer.
Now, obviously you don't want to abuse this by spamming the site with nothing but your affiliate links, but this is a great way to help other people and share your knowledge, and in return get rewarded if people choose to take action on the advice and resources you share.
I like to think of the Internet as one massive ocean.
And every piece of content I create as a hook in the water.
So, naturally, the more hooks I have in the water, the more fish I'm going to catch over time.
With Quora, two of the easiest ways you have to create these "hooks" are to provide value by answering questions (and inserting your affiliate links to relevant products where appropriate).
Then, you also have the blogging platform - and you can create multiple blogs per account.
So, what I love about Quora, in regards to someone just getting started with learning how to make money online, is that it provides a platform that anyone can start to make money with, with nothing more than an Internet connection, and a little bit of discipline and consistency.
Just think, if you were to spend a little time each day answering a handful of questions or maybe sharing some of your knowledge and expertise, using their blogging platform, how much traffic and exposure you would start getting to your articles and answers over time.
So, if you don't already have a Quora account, I recommend you create one today.

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 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...

How To Flip Domain Names For Fun And Profit

Years ago I came across a blog article about a guy that was in his mid 20s, who regularly made multiple five figures per month online... Simply flipping domains. Now, we're not talking about the kind of domain flipping where you invest in expensive branded domains and then resell those to a higher bidder. All he was doing was picking up  brand new domain names  for just the cost of registration...and flipping those to local businesses, over and over. Now, I had heard of things like this during the dot com boom, in the early days of the Internet, so I thought the idea of flipping domains was a lost art and there was no more opportunity in that. But, this was about 2011 or so, so it was way past the dot com bubble. Now, I mention that story to reinforce that you still didn't miss the domain flipping gold rush. Flipping domains for easy profits is something anyone can still do, and it's even easier to do these days. Now, what the guy I mentioned above was d...
