One of my favorite episodes of Seinfeld was the "master of your domain" show where the gang bet each other as to who could hold out the longest without giving in to self gratification. Whoever caved in would have to lay down the cash. The question - will the domain master you, or will you master the domain There is a price to pay if it masters you. In todays power tip, of course, Im talking about an Internet domain. One that describes your piece of Internet real estate. If your mother catches you mastering this domain, she may actually be proud of you! ;- If youre not using this technique, you may be paying the price of lost customers. So lets get right to it. Affiliate programs are the most popular choice of making money online. However, theyre so common that most people recognize an affiliate link and are less likely to click on one because of the selfish notion that they might be contributing to someone elses success. But thats another Oprah ... I want to show you how to conquer this issue while looking like a pro. Take a look at the following examples. Each are affiliate URLs. But 2 of 3 are masked; you dont know that theyre affiliate addresses.
In should not matter which link to click if you are compelled to click to find out more information. However, human nature says that we are guided by our emotions. Therefore, each link may portray a different image to you. Heres how to make your affiliate link stand out in the crowd. Typically #2 is the most widely used and is very easy to put into place using a redirect script on your own domain. You simply create a new file on your domain server, name it ie:"greatproduct.html", copy and paste the script code. Then enter the affiliate url address where specified that you want to forward to. Now when someone clicks on the new sub-domain you created ie: www.mysite.com/greatproduct.html, their browser will redirect to the affiliate site but appears to the prospect that it is your site. A simple redirect script can be obtained by sending any email to the following address mailto:script@6figuremarketing.com Now heres a really cool technique as seen in example #3. Get your own domain! Its the most professional strategy and will gain instant credibility and trust which can increase your rate of click-throughs. More click-throughs equals more traffic which means more eyes on your product or service, which means more cashflow in your pocket. Just be sure to sew up that pocket hole youve been neglecting since 1977! Ok, heres the cool part and you dont even need your own website to pull this off. Go to godaddy.com and search for the availability of your desired domain. Register the name, but be sure to choose the redirect and the mask option. Cost About $9 for one year. In about 48 hours, your domain will be live and kicking. In example #3, if you chose www.thegreatestproduct.com and someone types that address in their browser, it not only redirects to the site you chose, but will show up in the prospects browser window instead of the sites real URL www.greatproduct.com/98765/aff=dude Did someone break out the pixie dust Its marketing magic at its finest! Use this powerful technique to add credibility and professionalism to sub-domains and affiliate urls or any url where you want to increase your conversion rates. Tip: Use your domain solely for tracking reponse rates to specific advertising campaigns such as pay per click, etc. Follow these techniques and youll soon be the master of your affiliate domain!
