How To Spot Profitable Affiliate Marketing Products!

When choosing affiliate products to promote, ensure they meet the following criteria.

- The sales page makes you want to buy:

What I mean by this is that you should assume that you are a prospective buyer of that product and not an affiliate. If the sales letter looks good and makes you want to buy, it’ll probably pull others too. It will likely sell well.

- The commission:

How much is the vendor willing to share with his affiliates? I recommend that you don’t settle for anything less than a 50% commission. Anything less than that is a rip off.

- The price:

If the price of a product is too low, then you will not make good profits from it. The least priced product you should go for should be of the value of $27 up to $100. A 50% commission of these values is decent enough.

Additional tips.

If you’ve spotted a product that teaches maybe dog training and obedience and you want to promote it, you will have to assess if the "dog training" market is profitable. I don’t want to bore you with technicalities so I’ll show you a simple way of assessing market profitability.

Let’s use the dog training product as an example.

The first thing you should do is determine a keyword that defines the product you want to promote. That is the term a surfer will likely type into the search engine when searching for such products. For the dog training product, it’s safe to say that a surfer will type in the terms "dog training", "dog obedience" or "how to make dogs obey" and so on.

Before you promote, put yourself in the position of the surfer and type in such terms into a major search engine like google. See what comes up on the right hand side. If there are loads of ads there and even spills into the next page, know that it is a lucrative but highly competitive market.

That kind of product is worth promoting.

Another tip is for you is to make sure there are similar products in that market that you can promote in future. You’ll find out why later in this book because its not worth the efforts jumping from one niche market to the other. You should be able to sell different products to the same set of customers.
