Non technical ways to drive more traffic to your affiliate program

Like many things about the internet, driving more traffic to your affiliate program can be complicated unnecessarily. In reality, some of the most effective ways to drive traffic to your site are also some of the simplest and least technical.

Some of our favorite low tech ways to drive traffic through your doors are:

– Add fresh, original content to your web site on a regular basis. Adding interesting, intriguing and useful content is one of the best ways to boost your traffic numbers and keep potential customers interested in what you (and your affiliates) have to offer.

– Update your web site content on a regular basis, perhaps as frequently as weekly. Those who visit your web site and find nothing new to see will quickly find other web sites to visit. It is best to keep the articles on your web site short, preferably under 800 words.

– Publishing an ezine is another great low tech way to boost traffic to any web site. It is important to tailor your ezine to your target audience. For instance, if those on your subscriber list signed up to learn about fishing, they probably will not be interested in receiving an ezine about gardening or knitting. Publishing an ezine allows your subscriber list to get to know you better, and to come to look upon you as an expert in your field. People tend to trust the advice of those they regard as experts, and that fact an increase your conversion rate and sales as well as boosting your raw traffic numbers.

– Include reviews on your web site. Including reviews on your web site will further boost your credibility with your target audience, as well as providing you with a subtle marketing tool for your affiliates’ products.

– Provide your visitors with a quick way to bookmark your site. This is one low tech step many affiliate program managers fail to take, but it is also one of the easiest steps to take. Give your visitors a quick link to bookmark your site, and you can be sure they will return again and again. It is important to remember that many people will stumble on your web site completely by accident, either through a search engine query or a link from another site. It is important that these surfers be able to find you when they are ready to make a buying decision.

– Try serializing some of your web site content. Providing a series of articles, instead of one long article, is a great way to encourage visitors to return week after week. Another great strategy is to provide the first article freely, and then require your visitors to subscribe to the rest of the series.

There is no one “magic bullet” to successfully marketing an affiliate program, but through a strategic use of these tips, you can drive more traffic to your site and grow both the credibility and the income of your affiliate program.
