Step #1: Targeting A Profitable Affiliate
Niche Market
This is frankly the most important step you need to perform. It is the foundation for the
success of everything that follows, especially when it comes to affiliate marketing.
The keyword of the day is “profitable”.
Remember That Some Markets Remain Underserved For A Good
Reason: There’s No Money In Them.
So your goal is to learn how to do two things quickly:
• Locate potential niche markets to market affiliate products to
• Determine the profit potential of that market before diving in
Locating The Affiliate Niche Market:
You may want to begin by thinking about the topics you’re already interested in. This
could be, for example:
Sports -> Specifically: Soccer
Cooking Indian Cuisine -> Curry recipes
And so on. Notice how we’ve broken down those main categories into sub-categories.
Now this could be taken further and further…
Soccer -> Learning foot tricks
Curry Recipes -> For the lactose intolerant (curries contain a lot of cream!)
This Is Niche Thinking In Action.
The single biggest hurdle most new affiliate marketers face is coming up with niche
ideas because they get stuck on categories that are too broad. So, your first step is to
branch out with any sub-categories you can think of off the top of your head.
Since no one can generate a list of infinite possibilities in one sitting, your next step is to
go where the niches are already broken down for you. Guess what common source is a
great place to start? Search Engine Directories!
Start up your browser right now and head over to either Google.com or Yahoo.com and
begin drilling down through those categories. Once you have a target in mind, employ
additional research by:

1. Checking some related search terms at Overture.com and checking on the size
of that niche market…
2. Visiting related discussion forums and monitoring threads pertaining to this niche.
What questions are people asking? What problems are they looking to solve?
How To Determine The Market’s Profit Potential:
One Way To Determine Profitability Is Simply To Examine If An
Affiliate Product ALREADY Exists In The Niche You’re Targeting.
The first place to start your search is at the ClickBank marketplace. Examine existing
products and note if a profitable affiliate program is in place. Does the sales letter
convert well? Can you readily market this product to the niche in question?
These are just some factors you need to consider. While a listing in Clickbank’s
marketplace is not necessarily a guarantee of strong affiliate sales, it’s a good start.
Pay attention to the products in the top 10 for each category.
Next, it’s time to take a trip to your local bookstore…
If your niche has its own specialty long-running magazine, that’s a good indicator of
potential profit within that market. It also indicates that the market has money to spend.
The reason:
Magazines are advertiser supported. The readership must generate sales for those
advertisers to keep them interested in advertising in that publication.
Pick up extra issues at your library if you can and scan the magazine for ads which
appear month after month. Those are profitable products for that advertiser.

Step #2: Setting Up Your Affiliate Leads
Capture Page
Once you’ve identified the niche market and its potential profitability, your next step
would be to set up a simple direct response website to market the selected affiliate
program.
We Call This The “Affiliate Leads Capture Page”.
You’d want to do this for long-term success as a money-making super affiliate. This is
the website where you can capture leads and make profits from over and over again.
We’ll briefly cover the essential steps for you to get started below (You can readily find
tons of information on these from the search engines and free tutorials online).
Choose A Suitable Domain Name:
Before you go to register a new domain name, it’s very important that you sit down and
generate a list of potential names for your affiliate leads capture page. There are two
approaches to doing this:
• Brand a site for the promotion of one affiliate product
• Brand a site for the promotion of multiple affiliate products
In the first case, coming up with available domain names is quite simple. Let’s say that
you’ve chosen to promote a product like CheapCarFinder.Com as an affiliate. You can
create variations on this domain name until you come up with an available one.
Some examples include: mycheapcarfinder.com, thecheapcarfinder.com,
findacheapcar.com, etc.
The second scenario takes a little more brainstorming, but is worth the effort for the sake
of leverage and cost savings.
Rather than purchase a domain and hosting account for each product you promote, you
will choose one domain and set up each of your products in subdirectories like:
www.mydomain.com/product1
www.mydomain.com/product2
The trick is to come up with an appealing and descriptive name that is still somewhat
generic. Here’re two powerful domain-branding tips:
• Register your full name, for example, www.EwenChia.com.
• Mix in words like ‘info’, ‘marketing’, ‘tips’, ‘publishing’, ‘ebook’, ‘news’ or ‘secrets’
as these words imply content.

Visit NameCheap.com or GoDaddy.com to register your domains for less than $10.
Domain and Hosting Resources:
Decide on the best host by doing your research. However no matter which you choose,
a word of caution is in order here…there are a couple of situations I have to recommend
you avoid:
1. Paying too much for hosting. The industry standard varies. There are dozens of
power packed hosting accounts available for $25 per month, and you may want
to upgrade to one of these further down the line. However, I’d recommend going
even cheaper than that as a newbie. We want to get you into the profit zone on a
shoestring budget.
2. Domain/Hosting Combos: These are deals where you register a domain with
hosting included for one flat fee. The reason I don’t recommend these is because
you often don’t have control over the administration of your domain name. This
makes it much more difficult for you to transfer that domain to other hosts at will.
Creating Your Affiliate Leads Capture Page:
Once you’ve decided on your hosting provider, it’s time to create a simple direct
response driven website with just an opt-in form on the main page.
In fact you’ll need only ONE page for this site. This is as lazy and easy as it gets. It
will consist of:
1. An opt-in page
2. A redirect to the affiliate program sales page (you don’t need to create this)
In this section, we will assume little to no knowledge of HTML on your part. If you’re
familiar with how to code pages, great. This step will be easy for you.
If you’re a complete newbie, you’ll need to acquire some tools to make this whole
process as painless as possible. What You Need:
1. A free or low cost WYSIWYG web page editor. WYSIWYG is an acronym for
“What You See Is What You Get”. These are visual editors which let you type,
cut, paste, drag and drop all of your elements just like you would in a word
processor. You can also try 1st page 2000 which is available free from
www.EvrSoft.com.
2. The code to create your opt-in box. Generate this from your autoresponder
account. Simple instructions to do that would be found in your autoresponder
instruction manual.
3. Your hosting account login information.
4. An FTP program.
