Guarantee Earnings On CPA Complete Guide
Friday, August 6th, 2010 Advertiser, Blog, Pay Per View CPV, internet marketing by hooqy
Inside we will show you several methods that can be used to make a growing long term income from promoting CPA offers. Best of all, these techniques don’t require you to invest a ton of money to make it work. These are some of the best longterm promotion methods that can be used to promote any type of CPA offer without a huge upfront investment. All these techniques can be started and used from scratch, all they require is action to implement a few steps. Now some of these techniques may not be new to you, but they are proven to work for me and lot of professional CPA marketers out there.
While promoting offers through PPC can be profitable, it’s becoming harder as competition is getting stiffer. A lot of affiliate have jumped onto the CPA to PPC bandwagon and this has made the bid prices for PPC extremely high. A lot of offers require a bid of at least $1.50 to compete. This makes it very hard to get enough traffic but stay profitable at the same time.
Also, Google is becoming less friendly to affiliates as the days go on. They are implementing more difficult quality score rules. They want advertisers to send visitors to a full actual site rather than an affiliate. Google has also been banning certain offers outright such as Acai weight loss offers, or offers in general that promote a free trial.
And that is just PPC. With SEO, things are constantly changing. The ranking algorithms can change in one second, and it can cause sites to drop their top position in SEO in a second. It also takes more time and effort to get a site ranked, and even then, your SEO position is not guaranteed.
Creating A Landing Page That Sells
Monday, August 2nd, 2010 Advertiser, Blog, internet marketing by hooqy
It doesn’t matter how fancy and high tech your site is, good looking graphics will not make you sales. Many online marketers make the mistake of putting too much time and energy into the design of their landing page, and not enough into writing effective sales copy. Producing a site that is both professional looking and credible is a major factor in selling online, but if your sales copy is not working, you will not make money.
Writing effective sales copy is an art. Good copy writers have learned how to produce persuasive text targeted towards their particular audience. You really need to understand your customers’ needs and produce copy that projects emotion, passion, excitement and benefit.
Selling is also about enthusiasm, and projecting that on to your target audience. Being excited about the product will shine through, so avoid dry, over formal copy and let your passion for the subject show.
AIDA
The following is a tried and tested formula for writing effective sales copy, keep this in mind while planning your copy’s beginning, middle and end.
A – Attention – Use a powerful headline that demands attention
I – Interest – Intrigue interest and create curiosity
D – Detail – Provide details about your product or service
A – Action – Call for action
Begin writing your copy in black easily readable font with a light background.
Complicated fonts and dark backgrounds will make your copy difficult to read and will put off your visitor.
Avoid using fancy fonts or backgrounds that will make your text difficult to read.
Write in small blocks of text with a space between each block. There is nothing that will make your visitor click away faster than a sea of text – so make sure you use plenty of white space.

The Most Valuable Asset In Your Online Business
Wednesday, May 5th, 2010 Blog, E-mail Marketing, internet marketing by hooqyPossibly the most valuable asset you can have in any business is a list of prospects and clients who trust you and are willing to buy from you repeatedly and recommend you to their friends and associates.
But most businesses ignore this asset. Why do we say this? When our clients advertise their campaign through our content network, their landing page never make any attempt at all to capture the customer name, email address, phone number, fax number, postal address or residential address.
We always suggest you need to capture these leads and follow up with them otherwise the value of the leads you generate will be much lower and the amount of money you can afford to spend to acquire a new client will also me much lower.
In the past it has not been really cost effective for some businesses to capture leads in a database.
All they have to do is send an email which is as close to free as you can get.
But this kind of marketing starts with capturing email addresses.
The good news is even a very small business can subscribe to a first class “autoresponder” service and send an email to every prospect and client automatically.
At the time of writing you can subscribe to some email marketing service like Aweber, probably the world’s leading online marketing email delivery method for just $20 a month.
And if you have a computer online in your business you can enter all the contact details you want into your autoresponder and it can follow up on your prospects and clients with targeted messages automatically for weeks, months and even years.
I’ll talk later about the myriad of different ways you can improve your online marketing with email autoresponders.
For now let’s look at how you get your prospects and clients eager to give you their email addresses and other other contact details.
And eager to do what’s called a “double optin” where they confirm online that they requested information from you and they WANT you to send them emails by autoresponder.
IMPORTANT POINT: This method should not be confused with spamming. Every one of your prospects and clients will choose to be on your email list and can get off any time simply by clicking on an “unsubscribe” link in every email you send.

Why Need To Combine Online And Offline Marketing
Sunday, May 2nd, 2010 Blog, internet marketing by hooqy
We mention to our clients that making real sales and providing real service are the most vital measuring sticks for a business. Making real sales and providing real service are the most vital measuring sticks for a business. We always define to our customers that any online marketing you add to a business is simply PART of the sales and marketing process.
The biggest mistake you can make is thinking you can make a fortune in business selling products and services online without integrating offline methods or that you can make a fortune selling products and services offline without integrating online methods.
When you combine various elements of online and offline marketing into your prospecting, sales and follow up process the potential for an increase in your profits is numerical.
To put it in more simple language, each time you increase the new customers you bring into your business you also increase the number of customers who will buy from you over and over.
And that can be multiplied by increasing the amount of money each customer spends with you and the number of new prospects they send to your business.
Let me explain by giving you a short course in Marketing 101.
There are 3 main ways to increase the sales and profits in your business:
1. Get more customers to buy from you.
2. Increase the amount of money your customers spend each time they buy from you.
3. Get your customers to buy from you more often. Most businesses spend a large portion of their time and money focused on number 1: getting more customers.
But generally speaking there is far more money to be made with far less effort and expense by focusing heavily on improvements in 2 and 3: increasing the amount of money your customers spend and getting them to buy more often – Online Marketing can do this!
The effective online marketing can educate and provide exceptional service to your clients you can use that trust and confidence you build to create a steady stream of high quality referrals.
In the next article, we talk about four key marketing fundamentals for improving your offline marketing by integrating online marketing into the mix.
Identifying Your Target Market Before Advertising
Monday, April 19th, 2010 Blog, internet marketing by hooqy
Before you advertise via CPC banner, CPM graphical banner or Full Page Pop under ads in Hooqy Media, you need to know who your audience will be, and what approach to take.
We figure all of this out through niche market research.
Don’t let the word “research” scare you off! It’s an incredibly important step in the process of building a business geared for success. It’s also a very easy step, and I’ll show you exactly how I quickly evaluate different markets, including existing competition to determine whether a specific niche is viable or not.
To start, it’s important that you understand exactly what a “niche market” really is.
Niche marketing can be defined simply as:
“Marketing a product or service that caters to a specific customer base.”
Most mainstream niches will be very competitive, so it’s often wise to chisel down into the niche so that you are targeting a subset group of buyers in a smaller segment of that niche.
Every niche market that you focus on should have an existing consumer base.
You don’t want to spend the time, money or the legwork of creating a business from scratch in a new or untapped niche. Instead, focus your attention (and energy!) on VERIFIED, PROVEN markets where you can instantly identify that there is a current demand for specific products and services.
Also keep in mind that the more you know about a niche and its target audience, the easier it will be to develop products or services, or promote campaigns so that they are communicating directly with your average customer.
Once you narrow down your niche, by analyzing profitability, conducting market research and then determining the type of product or service that is likely to be successful based on what is already consistently selling, you can then rinse and repeat this system for each new market that you venture into.
This type of research, where you carve out a listing of profitable sub niches, rather than focusing on the larger markets will automatically give you an advantage over the larger companies that generalize niches under one main category.
Here’s why:
- You can quickly become an expert in your niche by focusing on building your brand within one market at a time.
- It’s easier to keep current with a narrowly focused market niche than to cover all mainstream markets (and their sub niches).
- You can respond faster to changes in the market and adjust your marketing as new trends emerge.
!You can build close relationships with key customers while avoiding the struggle of competing with established merchants who have already dominated (and saturated) the market.
Another reason why it’s often more feasible to focus on smaller, sub-niche markets rather than broader mainstream ones, is simply because of the extended opportunity to create new products that may not have been introduced to your target audience yet.
Sub niches can be just as profitable as mainstream ones, even with fewer consumers, if you focus on the markets with ‘long term growth’, where you are able to develop future products and offer them to the same target consumer base, rather than being able to satisfy their demands (needs or problems) with a single product.
Create the killer content in Hub Pages
Thursday, December 24th, 2009 Advertiser, Web Copy, internet marketing by hooqyGuess what sells? Controversy, people are attracted to it. They want to hear it and read it. But, as an affiliate marketer you have to tread a thin line and never cross it.
I use two types of content on hub pages. One is a simple product review page and the other is an informative rich hub page. You need to take different angles when you write your content for both.
Product Review Page Content
I have used product review pages very successfully on hub pages. But, you must keep your ego in check. You do not want to sound like you are promoting a product. You want to sound like an innocent bystander that happened to stumble upon a product and it changed your everyday life.
I always put myself in the reader’s shoes. I always ask a list of questions before I ever begin filling in my content.
1. Who will use this product?
2. Why do they need this product?
3. What problems does this product solve?
4. Who can benefit from this product?
5. What age group will get the greatest benefit from this product?
I answer those questions honestly and then dig into the forums and other means of research and check out what other people are saying. If the product is crap, I want to know. If the product works I want to know. I need to research this product from head to toe, before I ever put finger to keyboard. The more thorough I am in my research the higher quality content I add. I also try and buy the product I am promoting. The quickest way to become an authority is to purchase the product.
Put yourself in the shoes of your readers. Try and gain their perspective, understand how they feel and how you can help them part with their money. They know how bad they want to buy a certain product and they will justify buying it. They justify it buy reading product reviews. People will always make a decision based
on emotion and then try and justify it logically later.
Your readers will come to your hub page with full guard, hoping to find a good reason not to purchase a product. They are fueled by emotion. They really want to buy the product you’re promoting, but they are still trying to justify it logically. Don’t let logic into the equation! You need to be able to write and know enough about a product to fire up their emotions. Tell them how much your product you are promoting did for you. Did it change your life? Tell them.
Don’t let them justify by not buying. The only way you can do this is by researching you product. Sure, you can put up a hub page in minutes and pray for sales. But a much better way and though it takes more time is to know enough about your visitors and products.
Here is a small list of words that will fire off psychological triggers in your readers mind.
- Discover
- Startling
- Secrets of
- The truth about
- New ways
- Bargain
- Breakthrough
- Sensational
- Free
- Revolutionary
- Advice
- Miracle
- Improvement
- Compare
Please use these words conservatively in your hub!
I always like to use them at the close to ensure I get them to my merchant’s page. These words work, do not let any one tell you they don’t!
Information Content
Sorry, but you need to compile research when writing informative content. Informative content is nothing more than adding content to your hub that will convey information to people.
It’s not a product review page!
Take a weight loss eBook for men. You can easily compile some research from the body building forums and plug that into your hub page. You can tell your readers about a certain weight lifting method combined with a certain cardio method and then at the bottom of your hub page. Say something like this, “Hey I have lost
weight and added size to my biceps, all due to the discovery I made. I tried this product off the internet and it really helped me realize my goals, I think you should check it out, if you’re into rapid weight loss.” Check out “GET BIG WITHOUT STEROIDS.” (Fictional name) Now, that is just an example, but that is how I would word it.
Back to controversy, I had a hub page that did quite well. It was focused on an eBook for women’s weight loss. I can say this, I wrote some pretty controversial statements about overweight women. It not only received a ton of negative comments from the readers, it also received a lot of sales. I tried to push them to the edge and let them dangle. I fired up their emotions. I pulled them back a little and guided them to a product that was guaranteed to help them alleviate their problems. Plus I sympathized with them near the end and it had amazing results. It was a controversial article and guess what? It pulled in 4 sales a day from only 45 visitors a day. Before you think controversial topics do not work, they will. I would like to add I used a pen name, a women’s pen name. So yes I acted the part of an overweight woman.
If you do not like going undercover, you do not have to. But, I like making money.
Please remember to research, the more you research the better content you can add. See what terminology people are using in the forums. Same with the advertisers and merchants. You need to indentify with your readers. Connecting to them is a great way to receive killer click through rates.
What is Hub Page?
Thursday, December 24th, 2009 Advertiser, Web Copy, internet marketing by hooqyRecently, more affiliate marketers use the Hub Page as the landing page and advertise in Hooqy Media. In coming up several posts, we will talk about what Hub Page is, how Hub Page generates conversion and how to create a good Hub Page.
Hub Pages are a way for people like you and me to convey information to web surfers. They are simply one page sites that are sub pages of the main site, affectionately named “hubs”.
People all over the world are starving for information and affiliate marketers will not only give them information and top notch content, but hopefully they’ll have a problem that needs a solution and we will provide the solution that alleviates their problem.
You can produce all kinds of content using hubs but as an affiliate marketer Hub Pages will be used to set up one page product review pages or informational rich content. We can also use them to drive traffic to our own web sites, if you have them.
Hubs allow us to reach a wide range of audiences and Hub Pages gives you the power to reach thousands of people in search of information.
Hub Pages are free to use as long as you stay within their terms of service. It is a great resource that you can use to make money online, if used properly!
Hubs offer many choices when creating content filled pages. Each hub allows you to create “capsules”; which is where you will add your specific content.
Hubs have six “capsules” you can use to add content to your page.
- Text – allows you to write in the content you want to add
- Photo – allows you to add images to enhance your page
- Video – allows you to add You Tube videos
- Links – Enables you to offer your readers different links to click thru
- News – You can keep your readers updated on certain events around the world
- RSS – allows you to add RSS feeds to your page
- Comments – allows your readers to add comments about your hub
Hubs also contain two revenue sharing “capsules”.
- Amazon – you can add Amazon products to your hub and share in the revenue with Hub Pages
- EBay – you can add EBay products to your hub and share in that revenue also
One of the problems with Hub Pages is the exit links that are provided by Google AdSense. As an affiliate marketer, you would want your visitors to exit via one of your affiliate links. But, Ad Sense allows them another exit, as does the Amazon and EBay revenue capsules. You do share in the revenue when someone clicks on an ad, but nevertheless, it’s an exit I wish to avoid. I have built hubs for the sole purpose of earning Ad Sense revenue, but they do not earn the same type of revenue as an affiliate commission, usually.
The neat thing about hubs is the ability to move “capsules” around. It takes a simple click of the mouse and you can move “capsules” into any position on the page you desire. You can test different techniques, but usually just an up front product review works best. Add in an image or video, plus a killer RSS feed and you have your very own cash machine.
