Looking at the challenges and benefits to webmasters of AI

by shedders December 17, 2024

written by shedders

Well this is the big question – will AI kill websites, internet marketing, SEO and a big one for me, traffic to your website.

Now, what search engines are doing with regards to showing AI results on the main page which and lets be honest here, are stealing the content from the linked sites and displaying the information as their own – well, I have my opinions on that – that will be an article soon and since this site rarely gets suggested by the big G – I don’t really care, I’m not going to lose millions of visits a month but lets have a general look at AI.

It is a fundamental shift and if I was an SEO company, sold services on Fiverr, was a software developer and designed websites amongst other things – yes, I would be very scared.

The use of AI brings significant challenges and benefits to webmasters.

Here’s a breakdown:

Challenges of AI to Webmasters

SEO Complexity
- AI-powered search engines (like Google’s RankBrain) rely heavily on intent analysis and context.
- Traditional SEO strategies (e.g., keyword stuffing) no longer suffice, requiring webmasters to adapt to semantic search and user-focused content.
- Ranking algorithms powered by AI are harder to predict, making SEO efforts more complex.
Content Authenticity and Quality
- Generative AI can flood the internet with low-quality, automated content. This is really being seen on Youtube, unless I’m just the unlucky one who gets garbage fired at me.
- Webmasters face difficulty standing out among AI-generated competition and maintaining originality.
Security Risks
- AI can be used maliciously (e.g., bots scraping content, automated hacking, phishing).
- Webmasters must adapt their security protocols to counter AI-powered cyber threats.
Dependency on AI Tools
- Relying on AI-driven platforms for tasks (like analytics, chatbots, or content generation) can create over-dependence, reducing hands-on expertise.
- Tools that fail or produce inaccurate outputs can impact website performance. Now AI is improving but not all AI tools do, some use older versions of ChatGPT for example which has dramatically improved
Costs and Integration
- Implementing AI-based tools (like chatbots, personalization systems, and analytics) can be expensive. Very few are free and generally require a subscription. Also its hard, if not impossible to find an all in one tool – so many subscriptions. Now this still be more cost effective than hiring freelancers who may just be using AI anyway and thats another issue.
- Some small to medium websites might struggle with resource-intensive integration.
AI-Driven User Expectations
- Visitors increasingly expect personalized experiences powered by AI (e.g., recommendations, chat support).
- Failing to meet these expectations can reduce engagement and conversions.

Now its not all doom and gloom, lets look at some perceived benefits – their may be more or less, we all have our own opinion of AI and if something is an actual benefit.

Benefits of AI to Webmasters

Improved SEO and Ranking
- AI tools help webmasters optimize their sites for search engines. Platforms like SurferSEO, Semrush, and Ahrefs use AI to:
  - Identify the best-performing keywords.
  - Analyze competitor strategies.
  - Improve content relevancy.
Content Creation and Automation
- AI content generators (e.g., ChatGPT, Jasper) enable faster creation of blogs, product descriptions, and ad copy.
- This saves time and allows webmasters to scale content production.
Enhanced User Experience (UX)
- AI tools personalize the user experience by analyzing behavior and preferences:
  - Chatbots provide instant customer support 24/7.
  - AI-powered product recommendations increase conversions.
Analytics and Decision Making
- AI-driven analytics tools (like Google Analytics 4) process massive amounts of data to extract insights:
  - Predictive analysis identifies trends.
  - Automated reports highlight opportunities and weaknesses.
Automated Security Monitoring
- AI-powered tools help detect and prevent security breaches, such as identifying unusual traffic patterns or vulnerabilities.
Optimized Website Performance
- AI tools improve:
  - Page load speeds with optimizations.
  - User retention with automated A/B testing for layouts and content.
  - Technical SEO tasks, like schema markup and broken link detection.
Competitive Advantage
- Early adopters of AI tools can analyze markets faster, deliver better UX, and adapt quicker to changing demands, giving them an edge over competitors.

Summary

Area	Challenge	Benefit
SEO	Harder to predict AI-driven algorithms	Improved optimization through AI tools
Content	Over-saturation of low-quality AI content	Faster, automated content creation
Security	Increased AI-powered cyber threats	Better automated security monitoring
UX	Rising user expectations	Personalization, chatbots, and engagement
Integration	High cost and complexity	Optimized performance and automation
Analytics	Over-dependence on tools	Smarter decision-making with AI insights

In short, webmasters who harness AI tools effectively can significantly improve efficiency and user satisfaction, but they must also remain vigilant to challenges like competition, cybersecurity, and evolving search trends.

AI is a fast changing and challenging topic, what can be the hottest new shiny thing, can be superseded in a month, sometimes less

Getting traffic the smart way for your site

by shedders November 29, 2023

written by shedders

Getting traffic the smart way Just like with anything else in life, there are two ways to do things when it comes to online marketing. You can choose to do things the easy way, or you can try doing things the hard way.

The funny thing is the easy way is often also the smart way. In this chapter, I’m going to teach you the smart way to get traffic for your affiliate marketing business.

Regardless of how you choose to convert that traffic, I’m going to teach you the smart way to produce traffic. Put simply, the aim is to work less while getting more results.

Unfortunately, a lot of books out there that teach you affiliate marketing have it in reverse. They talk a good game but you end up doing things the opposite way of what I’ll teach you.

You’ll end up putting a tremendous amount of time only to have very little results to show for it because the turn-on-effort simply isn’t there.

Social media is the key

Forget what you’ve heard about social media and the effectiveness of its traffic. Social media is the key to your affiliate marketing success. Here’s how to do it.

Find your competitors on all social media platforms

By this point, you should already have a clear idea of who your niche competitors are. Go ahead and find their accounts on all social media platforms. By “all”, I mean the major social media platforms. This means look for your competitors on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and Pinterest. For bonus points, look for their account on Google Plus. Focus on in the social media platforms where most of your competitors are found. After you’ve done your research, you should have raw count of where your competitors are and where they’re not. A pattern should emerge. It may well turn out, depending on your niche, that most of your competitors focus primarily on Twitter. Some niches tend to focus on Facebook. Whatever the case may be identify the social media platforms where most of your competitors can be found.

Figure out their influencer base

How influential are your competitors on the social media platforms your niche tends to focus on? In the most common platform for your niche, look for the base of influence your competitors have. For example, on Twitter, are there special accounts that they keep mentioning? Are there industry specialists or industry experts or consultants that they always mention in their posts? What kind of hashtags do they use? Similarly, on Facebook, do you find them on certain groups? Do they tend to congregate in certain groups?

The bottom line on social media reverse-engineering

I hope the pattern is clear. Make sure that, regardless of where your competitors are on the major social media platforms, you figure out how they distribute their content.

Do they participate in group discussions? Do they have their own pages or do they basically promote their content on other people’s pages? What kind of hashtags do they use? Pay attention to what they’re doing on the major social media platforms your niche congregates in. Pick apart their patterns.

The smart way to build credibility on social media

By this point, you should have the three crucial things you need to reverse engineer your competitors on social media. First, you should have a clear understanding of which platforms to focus on. Since your niche tends to congregate within a fairly narrow range of social media platforms, you should know which ones these are. Second, you should have a clear idea of where they promote on those platforms.

You should try joining those groups. You should try to be visible in those areas. Third, you should have an idea about the hashtags that they use. Facebook and Twitter use hashtags. So, identify the hashtags that are most commonly used in your niche. Now that you have all this information, you are ready to build credibility on social media.

This account must reflect your content branding strategy. If you have a blog or a central website for all your articles, your accounts on your target social media platforms should look similar to each other. There has to be no confusion regarding your brand. If you feature a logo or a header graphic on your blog, it should be consistent on your social media accounts as well. Next, you’re going to gather as many of your competitors’ best content. At this point, you should have already done that.

You already should have a large list of top-notch thirdparty content that gets a lot of love from social media. These get retweeted a lot. They get shared a lot on Facebook. They get a lot of Plus One votes from Google Plus.

Whatever the case may be there is an objective indication that these are quite viral on social media. You should have a list of the URLs of this content. Your next step is to create a list of your improved versions of some of this content. This is your own top-notch content.

Your secret sauce

The secret sauce that you’ll be using is to “sandwich” your best content with your thirdparty competitors’ very best content. In other words, you use high-quality materials produced by third parties, and these could be your competitors, to establish credibility and context. When people see your brand on social media and they see your post, it becomes readily apparent that you’re only going to talk about a fairly narrow range of topics. This establishes your brand as some sort of expert or credible authority within a fairly narrow range of subject matter categories. This is crucial.

You can post all sorts of content about Kim Kardashian, celebrity content, Donald Trump, political, economic stories as well as gossip. That’s going to dilute your message. You have to stay on message. You have to stay laser-focused on your niche. On top of this, you have to feature the very best credible and authoritative content within your niche to position your brand as an expert.

This is why it’s crucial to go through that list of third-party content that you’ve reverse-engineered from your competitors with a fine-tooth comb. You have to be very meticulous regarding filtering that material to make sure that it gets people’s attention as well as gets them thinking about your credibility and authority. You may be thinking “How can this build my create ability when it’s somebody else’s content? This is not my own stuff. If people click on that link, they’re not going to go to my website. They’re going to go to my competitors’ website. What do I get out of it? Well, here’s the thing. When people can tell that they can reliably go to your social media account and get the very best content regarding the niche you’re targeting, they trust your brand more.

So, even if they click on a link and it takes them somewhere else, they will still go back to you because they can then find another link that is guaranteed to add value to their lives and when they click that, they get quality. They get value so they would want to go back to you. You are the hub that holds everything together. That’s how you develop a solid brand on social media. That’s how you become credible. This is also the way to establish context. The key here is to establish this credibility to the point that when people just give you the benefit of the doubt automatically and they just click link after link that you post because they know that it’s going to be on point, you basically have them feeding off the palm of your hands because sandwiched within these high-quality, top-notch third-party links are your own links. This is the payoff.

When they click these, they go to your website. That’s where you can show them ads that pay you money. That’s where they can sign up to your mailing list. Whatever the case may be once they go to your website, they can take an action that can end up putting more dollars in your pocket. That is the name of the game.

However, to get there, you have to be trustworthy. People have to have a good reason to trust you instead of somebody else. They should have a clear idea of why they should keep going back to your branded account instead of just picking out generic content through a random Google search. I hope you can see the difference here.

How to execute the sandwich strategy

I call this the sandwich strategy because that’s what you’re doing. You’re sandwiching your own content with the content of movers and shakers as well as proven and recognized authorities in your niche.

If you play this game correctly, you are essentially going to be piggybacking on the authority and credibility they worked so hard to build. The more people can see that your account only shares the very best content, the more credible your account becomes. You then end up benefiting from the existing brand authority of your competitors.

Isn’t that awesome? It’s definitely better than starting from scratch because, believe me, establishing a solid and credible online brand nowadays can set you back tens, if not hundreds of thousands, of dollars pores. There are specialized public relations firms in the United States and Western Europe that are built specifically for this job. However, you’re doing this on a shoestring budget. In fact, you’re doing this for absolutely free thanks to reverse engineering and the sandwich strategy. How the sandwich strategy works To spell it out in greater detail, the sandwich strategy works this way. First, you need to get a massive list of your competitors’ content.

Next, you’re going to have to filter these based on social media signals.

• Are people retweeting these materials?
• Are people clicking the thumbs-up Like button on Facebook?
• Is this material getting a lot of love on YouTube?
• Are the YouTube comments generally positive?
• Are these getting up pinned a lot on Pinterest?
• Do people on Instagram love this stuff?

Whatever the case may be there has to be some sort of objective social media validation. You can easily detect this looking at the social signals. Ideally, if a post gets retweeted a lot, that is more credible than a post that just gets a lot of thumbs up. On Facebook, for example, if a post gets a lot of shares, that is more credible than a post that just gets a lot of thumbs up and reactions. Once you have loaded these, you then get the URLs of your own content. Remember your content is reverse-engineered from the best materials your competitors can come up with. In other words, you’ve taken their best and improved on it.

Maybe you’ve updated it. Perhaps you’ve included all sorts of multimedia bells and whistles. Possibly, you’ve made it easier to read. Whatever the case may be just by looking at your own content, people can easily conclude that this is better than the competition. This is the kind of stuff that you’re going to be sandwiching so you’re going to first post several links establishing context and credibility. This is done courtesy of your competitors’ content. Next, you post your own content.

This immediately establishes your brand’s credibility and quality. Your visitors only need to click on the link to your own content to see how you beat everybody else hands down in terms of the information and value you bring to the table. After you post your own content, you then resume with posting other people’s content. Again, it’s all about building context and credibility.

You also want people checking out your social media pages to see that all you talk about is your niche, and the way you talk about your niche is not to sell stuff or cram products or services down their throat.

Instead, when they go to your account, they see high-quality content that answers the questions that they already have. After a few more posts of third-party content, you then follow that up with a call-toaction content. Call-to-action content is different from your own content. Your own content is a link to your article or blog posts. It can also involve a link to your YouTube videos. Your call-to-action content, on the other hand, goes to your squeeze page. This is where people can sign up for your mailing list.

Usually, this offers some sort of freebie like a free book, free software or a free video course. Whatever the case may be there is some sort of free premium being given out in exchange for the prospect entering their e-mail address. Once they get on your e-mail address, you can then send them prescheduled e-mails that qualify them to eventually buying something from you.

Once you have posted your call-to-action content, you then post third-party content and then you keep rotating. You’re basically alternating between third-party content, your own content, third-party content and then call-to-action content and then back again.

Automate your social media presence

As you can tell from my description of the sandwich strategy above, this is going to be a bit much to handle on a manual basis. You can do that if you have a lot of spare time or if you’ve hired a virtual assistant from places like the Philippines or India. However, the better approach would just simply be to automate.

By using tools like SocialOomph or Hootsuite or one of many other versions of these two tools, you can feed your social media accounts a huge amount of content URLs ahead of time. You feed them once, but these tools make sure to publish based on the schedule you set. You don’t have to publish manually one by one. Instead, you just input everything once, make sure you set everything up in terms of the think, the title as well as other elements and then the software does it on an autopilot basis.

This doesn’t mean that you’re just going to relax and take it easy. Even after the software is already posting your updates, you should also log into your social media accounts and engage with influential thought leaders or known-and-proven subject matter authorities in your niche on those different social media platforms.

This way they can republish some of your stuff. Maybe they can retweet your stuff. Whatever the case may be you end up getting some of their fans’ eyeballs because of your engagement with them. Don’t think that just because you have set up your automated software that is all you need to do. You also have to manually engage on social media. It is social media so this means that you have to be social.

Using facebook to drive traffic to your website

by shedders November 29, 2023

written by shedders

Facebook is one of the most complex social networking sites for business because they are always changing the algorithms, which can make it challenging to reach your targeted audience.

Facebook offers both profiles and business pages. Profiles allow you to add friends and are a two-way connection to other members of the site. When Facebook business pages, users ‘like’ the pages, which allow businesses to push content out to the users who ‘like’ them.

Unlike profiles, business pages are public, which means anyone can follow a link to see everything that has been posted on the page. With a business page, you can also set up paid advertising for both Facebook and Instagram.

For single-man operations, like media personalities and authors, a Facebook profile may be enough. However, for most companies, you should be creating a business page. It is essential that you link your business page to your personal profile. The advantage of using both your own profile and business page is that you can utilize your friends’ list form your personal profile on your business page.

With profiles, you can tag friends in business posts, invite them to events, and ask them to ‘like’ your page, while you also monitor conversations. Understanding your audience based on the content they post is not available with your business page, which is why you should have your personal profile linked.

The best way to grow your network with Facebook is to connect with the professional contacts on your personal profile. Be sure to add any media contacts, collaborators, other people in your industry, and potential clients. You might also be able to find potential friends in various Facebook groups or in the comments of other Facebook pages.

While it is understandable that you might want to keep your professional and personal pages separate, the great thing about Facebook is that you can create friend lists and control what the different lists see. You can have as few as one list for professional contacts, or make 100 lists and segment them in different ways.

When posting content, you can exclude lists from seeing a post or target a specific list, so they do look at your post.

How to Utilize Facebook to Grow Your Business

While you may have a Facebook page for your business, the question becomes whether or not you are using it to its fullest. Facebook is a great tool that can be used to effectively grow your business with a lot less effort than you’ve been putting in up until now.

In addition to posting updates about your business, there are numerous ways that you can utilize your Facebook page to create awareness among your audience to spread brand awareness and gain more followers.

Here are some of the most effective ways that you can use your Facebook business page to grow your brand awareness and gain more traffic to your company website.

Ask for Testimonials and Reviews

To improve your brand name and spread awareness about your company, it can help a great deal if you post testimonials and reviews on your business page. If you’ve ever used your page to promote local business, it provides you with the opportunity to gather testimonials and reviews from your customers.

While it might be challenging to motivate your customers to review your business page, you can put a sign up at your place of business to make your customers aware of the option to discuss your business on Facebook.

Apart from having a Facebook page filled with reviews of your customers, you can also select some of the best reviews and post them on your company site so visitors can see what others are saying.

Strike a Connection with Your Audience

An essential element of using your Facebook page for your business is connecting with your audience. Your audience on Facebook will consist of fans of your business, fans of your content, current and former customers, as well as potential customers. When you post content on your page, you need to keep this in mind, because your first priority is to connect with your audience.

If you follow the traditional method of audience engagement, you should be following the 80/20 rule. This means that 80 percent of the content that you post should be value-added content with the remaining 20 percent promoting your business. You can fill the 20 percent with material that is used for marketing, sales, or selfpromotion purposes.

It is imperative to engage with your audience if you want to promote your business page. The best way to catch their attention is by posting unique and informative content that is related to your business or industry. To win a loyal and engaged audience for your business, you have to create content that is relevant to your niche.

It is also critical to interact with your audience. This can be done by providing them with the kind of content the desire, as well as replying to the comments they post to your page. To ensure that you produce content that will engage your audience, monitor the comments that are posted so you can find out what your audience likes or doesn’t like about what you’ve posted.

If you notice that one of your posts gets a substantial number of likes and shares, it is up to you to try and find out what makes that post special. This will help you create similar posts in the future so you can increase the exposure that you gain by regularly posting the kinds of posts that your customers respond well to and by avoiding those that they seem to hate.

Utilize News Feed Ad Placement

Facebook provides its users the opportunity to place ads within the news feed that is located in the right-hand column of the site. The only requirement for this is that you must add your link to a Facebook page so that it is displayed in the news feed. In case you don’t have a Facebook page, you can only take advantage of ad placement services that appear in the right-hand column.

With news feed ads, your business page is used as the source of the advertisement by Facebook. This feature will provide your target audience an option to like your page apart from connecting with the primary objective of the ad.

Get Feedback from Your Audience

It is always best for your business to get a clear understanding of your customer’s expectations and then to strive to fulfill their demands. The best way to get an accurate understanding of how current and potential customers feel about your brand or product is to survey them. Not only does polling your audience give you a path to connect with your customers, but it also helps you understand what your customer’s expectations in a much better way.

If you find creating a survey is too time-consuming, Facebook has made it easy for users to create simple polls with their Facebook polling app. The app allows you to create a simple to use survey which can be easily understood by your audience. The best thing about the app is that it will provide you with readymade answers and can collect personal information in a way that will satisfy any privacy concerns that might arise.

Offer Helpful Resources

The best way to grow your audience and get more targeted traffic to your business site is to offer resources to your audience. Providing your audience with helpful and value-added resources will also help to set you up as an authority and thought leader in your industry.

Some of the best posts that you should be sharing on your business page is breaking news, blog entry posts, new tools, features, and products, book recommendation, and other useful websites. The kind of content that you post on your business page will shift depending on your specialty and business. On the off chance that there is a tool or blog that you depend on in your business, share the information with your fans.

Use Images in Your Posts

Photos are an extraordinary addition to your Facebook posts. So you want to post the highest number of pictures as you can. Not only can images convey a wide range of information, but it can also focus in on a single thought or emotion. Recent studies have also determined that images get shared more often than posts that contain only text.

The best part about adding images to your Facebook business page, it that they don’t need to be created by an expert photographer. Some of the best pictures that you can post come straight from your phone. The best images to display are ones of your employees, your products, or you in action.

When it comes to utilizing social media to grow your business, you want to try not to put all of your eggs in the Facebook basket. While Facebook can be an extraordinary way to showcase your business, it should be used in conjunction and supported by different channels.

Affiliate Marketing Terminology

by shedders November 29, 2023

written by shedders

If affiliate marketing sounds like something you’d like to get involved in, you’ll want to brush up on the most commonly-used terms associated with this multi-million-dollar industry.

Here are some of the terms you should know:

Affiliate Program:
An arrangement in which the advertiser pays a commission to an affiliate for each sale captured via their website or advertising link.

The commission model is based on actions performed by users, usually involving lead generation, subscription to a service, a direct one-time purchase, or other actions.

The advertiser will utilize performance-tracking software to track the users’ actions and the affiliates who have assisted in that process.

Many service providers run their own affiliate program, which means they buy traffic for themselves to increase their own profit.

Affiliate Manager
An Affiliate Manager is any person who communicates with the affiliates. They often create offers and take care of maximizing performance of the affiliate program.

Advertiser
This is a person or organization that owns a business and offers services or products to customers.

Advertisers are willing to pay affiliates for each new lead or customer they bring. This helps them promote their brand and acquire new customers.

Affiliate Network
An affiliate network acts as an intermediary between affiliates and advertisers. Affiliate networks allow affiliates to easily find and participate in affiliate programs suitable for their inventory.

Advertisers who offer affiliate programs work with affiliate networks to reach larger audiences (i.e. all affiliates participating in the network).

Bonus Offers
In affiliate marketing, you are competing against other affiliates, who quite often, may be advertising to the same group of customers.

This is where the power of bonus offers comes into play.

Affiliates will often offer bonuses to persuade a customer to purchase through their link rather than someone else’s. Typically, the bonus adds additional value to the product that is being promoted. In other words, it is relevant, in the same niche/topic, and serves as an auxiliary component.

The greater the perceived value, the easier it will be to convince people to purchase through your affiliate link. Therefore, it’s very important to learn how to create high-quality bonuses that stand out and capture the attention of your target audience.

Building your bonus offer doesn’t have to be a difficult process, but does require some knowledge of design and/or content creation.

One way around this is to use a program like Commission Gorilla, which simplifies the entire process of creating affiliate bonus pages. They’ve essentially done the heavy-lifting for you.

Cookies
In affiliate marketing, cookies are used to identify a visitor who has clicked on an affiliate link. It’s simply a form of tracking.

Cookies are usually assigned for a specific period of time. If the visitor returns within that timeframe, the affiliate marketer will be paid for the sale, whether or not the visitor uses the affiliate link to complete the purchase.

CTR
Your Click-Through Rate (CTR) is the percentage of website clicks for the number of advertising impressions displayed to visitors or bought from other networks.

CPA, CPS, CPL & CPC
Cost Per Action, or CPA, is the cost of an action carried out by a visitor. An action is almost always a form of conversion (see below).

A visitor either purchases the product or shows an interest in it. This is also referred to as Cost Per Sale (CPS) or Cost Per Lead (CPL), respectively.

Cost Per Click (CPC) is a payment model for online advertisements. Each time the ad is clicked, an amount will be paid to the advertiser.

Cost Per Action (CPA) is a payment plan where advertisers pay their affiliates for conversions only. If a sale is not made, the affiliate is not paid.

Campaign or Offer
This is the promotion of a product or service. Offers are created by affiliate managers or product owners, and usually contain all relevant information about the payout model, commission offer, and best marketing practices.

An Offer URL is the final URL where the visitor will land after clicking the promotion link or banner. This is your landing page where they will find your offer or campaign.

Conversion
This is usually a target action of the end user, defined by the advertiser. It can be a subscription to a service, lead generation, sale of a product, or installation of a mobile application.

Conversion is the final goal of advertising and is the event the affiliates will be paid for. In other words, the consumer has now been converted into a paying customer.

The Conversion Rate is the percentage of website clicks that converted (turned, changed) into a lead or a sale.

For example, if one in every hundred visitors to your site makes a purchase, then your conversion rate would be 0.1%.

Data Feed
This is a file containing lists of all the products an advertiser sells, including prices, images of products, descriptions, and affiliate links for the products.

Disclosure
This is a notice on an affiliate’s website or blog, notifying visitors that the affiliate is being compensated or paid for sales, recommendations, endorsements, and advertisements of a product and/or service on their website or landing page.

This is an important part of your marketing campaign because it’s required to comply with FTC laws. You should place this statement towards the top of your landing pages before you mention the affiliate offer.

Tracking Link
This is a unique URL to which an affiliate sends an audience for a particular offer. It can also be called a click tracking link or affiliate link.

Third-Party Tracking
This is the principle of notifying affiliates in real-time for every conversion. When a new conversion (or sale) is received, affiliate software automatically sends a conversion notification to tracking systems at the affiliate site or other third-party systems.

For example, if an affiliate program or network works with another affiliate network, each valid post-back can be forwarded to that affiliate network.

Creative
This is simply an advertisement (ad), or, in a broader sense, any form of content that helps sell the product, including graphics and banners.

There are many types of creatives used by affiliate marketers. Choosing the right type depends on the advertising channel, target audience, and advertising message.

When it comes to using banner-type creatives, they are typically large enough to be easily noticed without disrupting the user’s experience.

Interactive banners are, as the name suggests, dynamic and highly interactive. They usually offer more than one interaction, trying to get users to engage. This type of ad can contain an interactive element (a video or game) plus a call to action (a contact form, for example) all within the same banner.

An Ad Tag or Ad Snippet is an HTML element used to display ads by dynamically fetching them from an ad server.

Referral Bonus Program
This is a special type of payout awarded to affiliates who brought new affiliates into the affiliate program.

For each referred affiliate, they can receive a fixed-price sign-up commission and a percentage of their total earnings in a given period.

Client-Based Tracking
This is a tracking method in which information is stored on the user’s computer. A cookie is saved in the user’s browser when they click on the ad, and then linked back to the affiliate that brought in that user.

After the user completes an action on a page, the tracking program records a conversion for the proper affiliate using a piece of tracking code called tracking pixel.

The pixel is also called an impression pixel or iframe pixel, depending on which of these two methods are used.

Client-based tracking is simpler to implement on the advertiser’s side, but is less accurate, since it uses cookies.

Impressions
This refers to the number of times an ad is shown on a page.

Landing Page
This is a website or webpage to which affiliates refer traffic.

For example, when a user clicks on an ad or banner, they are redirected to a webpage that gives them more information about the product advertised on that banner, usually with purchase options.

The main purpose of a landing page is for the user to complete an action. It can be a purchase, service sign-up, download, or any other action that has a positive value for the advertiser.

Your landing page should reflect your online personality and use your charisma to encourage users to take action and gain you those commissions.

You can also use a bonus page as your destination URL when promoting offers.

Niche Marketing
This type of marketing is focused on a specific group of consumers.

Niche marketing targets a far smaller group than general ads do. For example, if you are promoting yoga products, your niche is yoga while your main industry might be health and fitness.

A well-defined niche allows marketers to create more personal ads that will yield better results.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
This is the process of getting a better ranking on search engine results pages. The purpose is to achieve higher visibility and attract more traffic (more visits or clicks) to a website, which in turn results in more sales or leads.

Lead
This is a contact with the potential to become a customer. A lead, in other words, is a person who shows interest in the product or service you are promoting, which makes them more likely to become a customer instead of a browser.

This is also known as a prospect.

Keep in mind that the definition of a lead may vary depending on the organization using the term.

For some companies, a lead is a contact already determined to be a prospective customer, whereas other companies consider any sales contact to be a lead. Your goal is to convert the maximum number of leads into actual customers.

EPC (Earnings Per Click)
This refers to the amount of commission an affiliate earns fro every person that clicks on their advertisement and purchases from the merchant’s website.

A/B Testing
This refers to an instance where you are running two or more versions of a webpage or creative at the same time in order to identify the most effective campaign.

Affiliate ID
This is a unique identifier given by the affiliate program or merchant that you are promoting. It tracks your sales, clicks and often, overall traffic.

Ad Blocker
This is the technology that prevents online ads from displaying on a website.

Ad blocking is on the rise, so the International Advertising Bureau (IAB) has launched its L.E.A.N. program to make ads better, and therefore, to encourage users to give up their ad blocking.

The latest research shows that over 15% of online consumers are using ad blockers nowadays, so something needs to be done to restore the balance in the marketplace.

The problem is that unscrupulous advertisers have started showing heavier, more distracting ads that impose on the customer instead of enticing their interest. IAB has owned up to this mistake. They realized that the most important thing to do now is to improve the experience of internet users so that ad blockers are no longer needed.

Encrypted: To advertise on secure websites, advertisers need to create secure, SSL-compliant creatives for display and video ads. SSL is a protocol for establishing a secure connection between two parties on the internet.

The goal is to make sure that communications are encrypted (or encoded) so that unauthorized users cannot understand them.

Return on Investment (ROI):
This is the amount derived by subtracting your net revenue from the total amount of your costs. The result shows you the profitability of your campaign.

A high ROI means the gains compare favorably to the cost, so you’re making good profits.

There are two main benefits to using the ROI calculation: it’s easy to calculate, and it’s almost universally understood.

First Click
This means that the affiliate program will reward commissions to the affiliate who was the first to refer the customer who made the purchase within the cookie duration timeframe.

Last Click
Affiliate programs that reward commissions based on last click attribute the sale to the affiliate who was the last to refer the customer who purchased the product or service.

And finally, here is a list of a few common affiliate marketing abbreviations:

• AOV: Average Order Value
• B2B: Business to Business.
• B2C: Business to Consumer
• EPC: Earnings per Click
• SEM: Search Engine Marketing
• SERP: Search Engine Results Page

Final Words

Affiliate marketing is one of the few opportunities available today that provide you with the opportunity to make money instantly, without hefty start-up costs, experience or skill.

In fact, you could very well see results from a single affiliate campaign within just a few short hours from now, even if you’ve never set one up before!

The next step is to create an action plan and build your bonus pages so that you can stand out in the marketplace and maximize conversion rates.

It truly is an exciting and incredibly profitable market to be a part of.

In fact, an affiliate can earn anywhere from $10,000 a year to six-figures and beyond when they focus on building a targeted list and then creating emails that motivate their audiences.

5 Minute Guide to Marketing Your Business On Instagram

by shedders November 29, 2023

written by shedders

With over one billion active users, and an extremely quick and easy interface, Instagram is a platform that offers potentially massive ROI for marketers. This is a brilliant way to engage with an audience, sell a vision, and build a massive and loyal following. In this post, you’ll learn the basics in just five minutes and find out how to get started!

Building and Optimizing Your Account

To get started on Instagram, you’ll need to create an account. Luckily this is extremely easy – simply download the app, create a username and password, and you’re ready to go! Good news: your account is set up! It really is that easy. What’s next is to fill in some of those other details in order to optimize it for your goals. That’s going to mean creating a profile picture, a bio, and the other finishing touches. This is how you’re going to optimize your account to play well to your target audience.

Profile Picture

Your profile picture can be anything you want it to be, but keep in mind that the image will appear small and inside a circle. This will be the first impression that many users have of your account – when they see you add a comment to an image for instance, or if they search for your account/a hashtag you often use. Therefore, there are two strong options when it comes to picking an image. One is to use your own logo. This will help you to improve brand visibility, and it will work particularly well if your logo is able to communicate the concept of your business visually immediately. Think about your value proposition. Think about emotions. Will someone who has never encountered your brand before, be able to tell from your name and your logo that you focus on a particular subject? More importantly, will they be able to tell
instantly whether your brand is something they might be interested in?

If the answer is no, then the alternative is to choose a profile picture that shows you doing something specific, or that shows a product or activity. In other words, choose one image that will convey the same emotion and tone that you want to achieve with your broader account.

As for your biography, you only have a short number of words here to work with: 150 maximum. In that short space, you need to encapsulate what your page and your brand is all about and again, convey that emotion.

Moreover though, you should also think about how you are going to produce more engagement from this. That means thinking about how you can get people to click through to your website or YouTube channel. You can use a tool like Bitly (https://bitly.com/) or Goo.gl (https://goo.gl/) in order to make shorter links that you can place here. That will save you word count, while allowing you to convert some of your Instagram fans into visitors and hopefully paying customers.

Settings

There are a few settings to consider when setting up your account. First, think about your Story Settings, which will define who can see and reply to your Instagram stories. You should make sure this is set to everyone if you have an account for business purposes.

Of course you also need to make sure that your account is not private.

It’s not a bad idea to turn on ‘hide inappropriate comments’ to avoid abusive or spammy posts.

Finally, note that if you scroll down to the bottom of the settings, you’ll find the option to add additional accounts. This is great news for those who want to maintain a personal Instagram account in addition to their business one, and it also means that you can create accounts for imprints and sub-brands. Even individual products!

Fortunately, it’s extremely easy to juggle accounts on Instagram which makes it very easy to swap from one to the other.

Making Your Instagram Feed Perform

Once you have your account, you’re ready to start posting images and video. While there are lots of tips and tricks to help you get more from this, the most important one is simply to hone in on your niche, to hone in on your target demographic, and then to post frequently with a consistent tone and style.

So if you have a fitness brand, then that means lots of photos of people training – no images of your dog!

Having a consistent look for all your images is a slightly more complex and controversial decision. But know that 60% of businesses use the same filter on all their images! Of course, this will hamstring you somewhat in terms of your creativity. You’ll find that by picking a consistent look – especially if you are a photographer or artist – that you won’t be able to branch out and get creative whenever you wish. That said though, it also means that
people can quickly decide if they like your content or not, and there’s a high chance that this won’t change as they spend time with your brand.

What’s more, is that by picking a consistent visual style, you can make sure that your page as a whole looks great: not just the individual pictures. This is something to consider, as it will help your visitors to make the decision as to whether they would like to follow your content or not when they visit your profile.

Take a look at the pages of some of your favourite creators in your niche and decide what they’ve done that you like, versus what hasn’t worked.

Likewise, using consistent hashtags, and even following predominantly creators within your niche, will all help you to send strong signals to both Instagram and your followers as to what you’re all about and who should and shouldn’t follow you.

Defining Your Account

If you’re going to be using consistent filters, a consistent theme and more, then you need to think about what that theme is and what you will want to say. This is what will help you to really make a mark on Instagram and it’s what will allow the whole strategy to ‘click into place’.

This may be easy if you are a fitness account – you will likely want to promote a fitness lifestyle and that will mean posting images of training. Not in good shape yourself? Don’t worry, we’ll come to that (although it is always better if you can act as your own model). Likewise, if you are making an account about travel, then all you need to do is to visit some amazing locations and
take stunning photos (or find them elsewhere – again, we’ll get to that). Pick a certain style and a certain schedule for posting, and you’ll gradually gain more and more momentum.

These images should each tell a story and should each evoke the feelings you want to produce in your followers. The travel pictures should make your audience yearn to visit a beautiful country, or marvel at nature (perfect if you have a travel blog, or you sell travel supplies).

But what if you sell life insurance? How can you make this aspirational?

What about online business? How can this be visual? The key is again to focus not on the nitty gritty, but on the emotion. In the case of life insurance, think about what this is really about: family and loved ones. Did you know that #love is the number one most popular tag on Instagram? And family/relationships is one of the most popular niches on the platform. So you can post images of families doing fun things together, and looking cute. Maybe happy babies, or beautiful family homes.

As for online business, you can take one of several angles. You could focus on the way that working online makes you feel: like a trendy entrepreneur! That could mean taking photos of desktop set-ups, of people in suits going to meetings, of laptops in coffee shops. If you live this lifestyle yourself… even better! Alternatively though, you could think about what that kind of business helps you to achieve – post pictures of business men and women in hot tubs, on private jets, or relaxing on the beach.

Whatever your niche, you should hone in on the feelings that help you to sell in it, and then convey them through this visual medium.

Buyer Persona and Owning Your Niche

But once you’ve chosen your ‘angle’, you should also aim to stick to that angle. That will also mean defining and sticking to a specific ‘buyer persona’.

‘Buyer persona’ simply means the archetypal kind of person who will appreciate your business. Write a fictional bio for that person, and ask yourself their age, interests, hobbies, income, beliefs, personality, and more they might have. Use this to directly target them through your Instagram marketing.

For example: is your fitness brand aimed at people who want to get a little healthier? Are you going to show happy people on the beach, or young couples working out at the gym together? Or is the fitness angle you’re looking for going to be more ‘hard core’? Maybe you’ll target strength culture and post images of gigantic guys with chalked-up hands, grimacing under a barbell. This attracts an entirely different kind of audience, but it’s by owning your specific message and knowing your direct audience, that you will be able to stand out against the competition.

Choosing your audience and buyer persona might be easy if you are inheriting this from an existing business: who are you trying to sell to? That is who you will target with these images.

Failing that, think about how you can stand out against the competition. Think about the kind of content that you want to produce and are honestly passionate about (this is absolutely fundamental to your long-term success), and think about the demographics particularly well represented on Instagram and where there is overlap.

With all this decided, all that is left to do is to post frequently (1-3 times a day), to use smart relevant hashtags that include a range of extremely popular and less popular terms, and to promote your Instagram account from other platforms.

People will find you through search thanks to the hashtags and through your other channels, and the high quality and consistent tone of images will mean they subscribe and share.

The Last Piece of the Puzzle – The Social Aspect

Posting great quality images and having a well optimized profile is the first step to Instagram success. But it is far from the only one. In fact, Instagram is a social network and this is crucial to remember if you want to be successful. Primarily, this is a communication tool, and the way you communicate will greatly impact on your success. By posting on other accounts, by talking to your followers, and by motivating your audience, you can greatly increase your growth and your engagement.

Here are a few tips to consider:

• Answer your audience – If someone comments on your photo and you ignore the comment, they won’t comment again in future. If you answer though, they’ll get a kick out of interacting with their favorite brand and will likely comment again (not to mention becoming even bigger fans!).
• Like and comment on others – If you like or comment on a video or picture in your niche, you’ll potentially gain a new follower in that person (they’ll enjoy the attention and check out your profile, especially if it looks like a business profile). Moreover, you might gain followers from other people who
read the comments, and it further helps Instagram’s algorithm. It’s also a good idea to follow other people.
• Run contents and use hashtags – Reposting photos from users who use your hashtag, running competitions, or asking for help all represent methods you can use to galvanise your following and turn them into a force for growth!
• Collaborate – Collaborating with other users is a brilliant way to expand both your audiences. Just send them a direct message and ask if they would like to work together on something. Pick a creator with a following that’s a similar size to yours and that way, you will both stand to gain a similar amount from the interaction. There are lots of ways you can do this – post each other’s’ photos, provide a shout-out in a story, or even make something cool together to share (like a short video or cool image).

Use these strategies in combination with frequently posting to your account, and your feed will go from strength to strength. Good luck!
