Super Affiliate - All the Basics You Need to Know
I came across this article and decided it could benefit any readers of my blog, plus, its 4am and I need to get some sleep so that means no time to type my own post >;)

Exactly what is a super affiliate? A super affiliate is the person that knows how to find the right material, whether it be ebooks, software or products, to sell on the internet for a profit without ever having to invest a dime. A super affiliate finds the right products, promotes those products through advertising or articles or through email or a web site and then rakes in the commissions at an astounding rate. What does this super affiliate know that you don't?
So here are the basics for becoming a super affiliate:
1. Learn where to find the super products to sell
You can do this several ways. You can do keyword searches. You can search Clickbank for the super sellers. You can join Commission Junction and check out who has the best sales. You can purchase a few ebooks that give you insights into who is selling the best and who to avoid.
2. Learn how to promote the products
Having a web page decicated to a product you are promoting is the best way. Selling in emails is okay if you don't use spamming techniques. It's best to set up your own email list with opt-in subscribers. Buying pay-per-click campaigns is another avenue that works really well IF you know what you are doing and don't cost yourself an arm and a leg. Promoting the products through your own blog is another great avenue and you can get several free blogs out there to help you become a super affiliate.
3. Learn how to write creatively
Make your visitor wants to buy the product. A good book for learning how to write for the web is called "Web Copy That Sells". Can't think of the author offhand but this is one good book for writing good sales copy. Another great ebook on copywriting is "The Copywriters Bible". If you are not a good writer, then for heaven's sake get a book that shows you how. Your sales copy can make or break you.
4. Pick a niche and corner that market
Don't try to just sell books as an example. Pick a certain subject like: Chicken Cook Books, or High School Math Books, or Internet Marketing Books. If you create a niche then people doing a search for that particular subject are going to find you easier. There are literally thousands of niches that can help you become a super affiliate.
5. KNOW your subject
If you are trying to sell something just for the money, then go ahead and give up now. You are doomed to fail. If you believe in your product then you are going to be more convincing to the person you are selling to. If you are ignorant of the subject material, it IS going to show and you are going to lose sales. Take the time to invest some research into the product you are going to sell to others. They are depending on you to give them an honest review of the product or service you are selling.
6. Stay on top of trends
You must keep up with trends. Don't try to sell a dead horse. There is always something new going, something new being developed, something new in the works. Stay tuned!
7. Super affiliates are dedicated
They are dedicated to making that money. They see how easy it is to sell once you have a good product and once you find a formula for what works. You must have goals in mind. You must stick to a plan you have developed. Be dedicated to become a SUPER affiliate and you will become one.
8. Find a super affiliate to emulate
See who is the most successful and then see what they are doing right. Maybe it is something so simple that you have left out of your own marketing plan. Check out super affiliates and make a list of their selling process, then refine it to meet your own needs.
It's not unheard of to make anywhere from 1000 to 10,000 dollars a month just selling other people's stuff. Super affiliates make that and more.

I have found some interesting so far genuine information in your blog. I have always wanted to earn an extra income online. Yet I am sure there is always a catch. I looked through sitetell.com and it appears that I must buy it for $300...What was your budget when you started off, how hesitant were you before you started, did you begin all that with a friend?
Would you mind giving me some guidance if possible?
Seriously now, I 'd love to hear from you.
