Most people who do search engine marketing are doing it not because they have nothing better to do. They are usually after more exposure, more profits, more leads and more sales. In short, we all want to make more money, right? Here are 3 simple ways to make money with search engine marketing.
Squeeze Pages
You send traffic to a lead capture squeeze page so that you can follow up with them for a long time. This is also known as list building where you build an email list of people who are interested to hear from you again. Just get a percentage of them to buy from you and you will make money.
This can work for you if you have your own product and it can also work for you if you are mainly promoting affiliate programs and getting an affiliate commission in return for your sales. Why not do both? Have your own products as well as promote affiliate programs.
Presell Pages
You can send paid search traffic to a presell page where you promote an affiliate program. On your presell page, you need to show them the benefits of buying so that they will buy. If you can craft a very persuasive message, many people will take up your offer.
Review Pages
You can also send paid search traffic to a review page where you write reviews of a few different products and you allow your visitors to compare them. In this way, you are helping them to make a more informed buying decision. Whichever product they buy, you will still get paid an affiliate commission.
