Best Affiliate Marketing Programs - Part 4

Now that you know the keywords that you will use on your website comes the task of getting traffic. If you haven't looked into the best affiliate program for the site yet then you should do so now. Pick ones that you know something about, preferably ones that you have personal experience with. Now it is time to get to work getting traffic to the website. There are a number of ways to do this. For example you could start up an Adwords campaign. But if you aren't careful you could easily spend as much on it as you make back. That's not very productive and won't be paying the bills. Before doing Adwords I recommend generating a stream of income from your website that can then be leveraged to drive more traffic to your website. One of the best ways to do this is with search engine optimization. In other words get your website ranked highly in Google, Yahoo and MSN.

I have found a powerful tool for search engine optimization. This is SEO Elite. The tool has eight projects:

• Project 1 is used to analyze the backlinks of your main competitor's. The idea is to get the same backlinks as they have to raise your page rank.
• Project 2 allows you to easily build the list of websites you would like to get links to and does the submittals for you.
• Project 3 provides a fast and easy way to analyze the use of keywords on a competitor's web page and learn how they are getting their page rank.
• Project 4 determines whether your link partners are still linking to you. This makes the job of managing them quite easy.
• Project 5 is able to let you know how your site is ranked for particular keywords. It is invaluable to be able to measure your progress.
• Project 6 shows you how many of your pages are indexed and of those which ones are indexed.
• Project 7 locates authority sites in a niche that you are interested in and would make excellent link partners.
• Project 8 will submit your site to the directories. This makes Keyword Elite a major time and money saver.

Getting your site ranked highly by the search engines is 10% what you do on page and 90% what you do off page. Type in your keyword to the search engines and select the top 5 sites. Using project 3 you can find out what keywords these sites are optimizing on and use these same keywords. You need to use your keyword in the title, once in each paragraph and put it as close as possible to the end of the page. Also don't miss opportunities to put it into Alt tags for images. However remember page content should first and foremost be setup for your site visitors. Don't just optimize for the search engines.

Next for you to work on is off page optimization. This is where SEO Elite comes into play. You'll be using the top 5 sites from your on page optimization. Use project 1 of SEO Elite to find their backlinks and then use project 2 to trade links with these sites. Google loves backlinks, especially with relevant sites. Your page rank will go up quite fast as you get linked to these sites.

You can make a good living using the best affiliate marketing programs but you need to market them properly. They won't sell themselves. Spend the time setting up your sites properly and you'll reap significant rewards.
