Increasing Traffic To Your sire
Two Ways To Get Started
Option One - Find a suitable affiliate tracking software, install, run and manage it all yourself including making payments to affiliates, and managing a help and support system for your affiliates. Option Two - Outsource the entire process with a performance based affiliate marketing company.
Pay For Performance Options
Performance based marketing involves giving a payment when the desired action is completed. Two of the most popular actions that top Online merchants pay for are:Pay-Per-Sale - A Pay-Per-Sale transaction is complete when the traffic makes a purchase. The merchant decides in advance how much commission gets payed to the affiliate.
Pay-Per-Lead - A Pay-Per-Lead transaction is complete when the traffic completes an Online form with personal data like name, email etc. The merchant decides in advance how much they will pay for each lead.
In both cases, the traffic is tracked, and all sales and leads get automatically credited to the affiliates accounts.
Conclusion
Do your research and weigh up all the options in order to discover what your particular business needs. For example, if your business resources are stretched already, you will need to either hire extra personel to run your affiliate management system or you might like to outsource instead. Either way, using Performance Based Affiliate Marketing is an excellent way of increasing traffic to your Online store.
