Prediction: Affiliate Genie will make affiliate marketers slap their blogs.

Dump Wordpress

Wordpress promised to make affiliate marketing better. you to some extent, it has. Instead of the initial sleek, efficient tools it is morphing into bloat ware with numerous plugins, themes, and settings. To promote affiliate product reviews and grow my affiliate internet marketing business, I was compelled to convert to Affiliate Genie.

And I'm glad I did.

For a while, Chris Rempel has dedicated his efforts to turning affiliate marketing away from a crap shoot into a science. His technique in a nutshell is this:

* determine keywords in niche markets that appeal to desperate customers who are prepared to purchase* post reviews for the affiliate items that satisfy those buyers' needs

*use organic search engine optimization(SEO) to list high in the search engine results pages(SERPs)

* get those desperate eyeballs on your review when those purchasers have their plastic cards in hand* help the customer fix the matter

CR's main concept is that you don't want your site to display up early on in the buying cycle when people are collecting data, but rather, at the last part of the cycle when they are choosing which widget is right for them.

Lite versions are included along with web pages where you can post your own, all-embracing privacy policy and legal disclaimers.

No one uses the default WP theme anymore, unless they're totally lazy. Don't spend your efforts developing or hunting down a new theme. Web pages load faster without all of the add- ons.

12. No distractions. The whole point of an online business website is making money. Locate a niche community of buyers. Give them the answer to their problems at the proper time. Let someone else give them the bells and whistles.
