Generating an income with search engine marketing - get the right tools:

Search engine marketing generates many requests for information about revenue generating methods, strategy and software tools, so I decided it would be a good idea to try and provide a concise summary of what we've learned from our own activities.

In this article we'll show you examples of the techniques we used with one of our most successful websites: HDTV Home Theater (opens in a new window).

This is an article about internet marketing, Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising, and affiliate programs and tools, and how you can make money with them. On this page, you will find relevant links to the various key providers of programs and products, all of which have resulted in financial success from our own efforts.

Note: Make money with an excellent affiliate program. Google Adsense and Adwords are not necessarily the best way to make money on the net. The payout per click has dropped dramatically, and all their strategies are designed to get you to pay more money for Adwords campaigns. There are better affiliate programs that pay much higher, and the Evolution Chair is an excellent way to generate an income online.

Millions of people experience severe back pain from sitting in front of computers all day. We highly recommend the Evolution Chair '2 tier ' affiliate program. This product has been an instant hit, and the market has only just opened up. So, get in on the ground floor and make money promoting this product. You can also sign up your sub-affiliates and make money from their sales too. Back Pain Relief Affiliate Program - More Info Here ...

Keyword Elite: The Number 1 Tool for ANY Search Engine Marketing:

Before we go any further, I can't stress enough the importance of determining keyword optimization and usage, regardless of which marketing (or advertising) approach you take. Whether you are a publisher generating revenue by hosting ads on your pages, or an advertiser generating sales by placing ads, you need to know what the most requested keywords are and which niche markets have been missed.

If you don't have this information, you are running blind, playing a guessing game, and your chances of success are akin to being struck by lightning. Even if you're on a limited budget, this should be the one tool that you buy.

Keyword Elite is quite simply the BEST SOFTWARE for determining keywords and keyword phrases to maximize revenues. Instantly generate a long list of the current top 100 searches. Enter any word related to your business and immediately display a long list of related terms and find out what people are searching for. Optimize your web pages for maximum search engine marketing results, and find niche markets that nobody else has.

Pay Per Click (PPC) Affiliate Advertising Programs:

A few years ago, we started to see PPC (Pay Per Click) advertising appear from Google, with their AdSense and AdWords programs. Many others such as Overture, Yahoo and Chitika have followed suit. These context sensitive pay per click (PPC) advertising systems can generate a substantial income for people that own websites.

As a publisher, you sign up for free, then insert small scripts into your pages which generate blocks of ads that are relevant to the page contents. This provides visitors to the page with advertisements displaying goods and services related to their search keywords, and advertisers bid on these keywords to have their ads displayed, when a visitor searches for them.

Web publishers get paid every time a visitor clicks through an advertisement to see the products and services offered by the advertiser, and advertisers are paying for those click-through visitors. Google, Chitika and other ad program providers make money by charging the advertiser more than the publisher is paid.

We also like Chitika because of the following reasons:

-the payout to the publisher is higher than other programs
-the ads contain product pictures that generate a higher CTR (Click Through Rate)
-visitors can search for competitive products without leaving the publisher's page
-publishers have the option to manually control the targeted keywords
-new pages with low click-thru rates (CTR) are not penalized like they are at Google
-they have a Chitika affiliate program for publishers to recruit new members

Here's a screen capture of an actual real Chitika eMiniMall Ad, manually targeted for "search engine marketing". We couldn't put a real ad here, because directing attention to, and encouraging ad clicks is forbidden under the TOS (Terms of Service) agreement we have with Chitika (and Google):

Pay Per Action Advertising (PPA) Affiliate Programs:

Google AdSense and Chitika are two top players in the PPC advertising field, but there is an interesting - and potentially more lucrative - alternative to these programs. We were doing fairly well with PPC, but in some areas we couldn't get the precise targeting we wanted - so I signed up with ClickBank, a Pay Per Action (PPA) affiliate system.

With ClickBank, you don't get paid by the click; it is an affiliate system (free to join) that pays when the shopper takes an action, such as joining a membership or buying an eBook download. Unlike other affiliate programs like Commission Junction, the commissions are typically 50 to 75% of the purchase price. Used in conjunction with an ad placement system, such as Affiliate Sensor, you can place highly targeted profitable ads that look just like Google Ads, but yield a much higher return.

I found that this was such a significant improvement over PPC that I decided to dedicate a seperate article to it - read about ClickBank and Affiliate Sensor here.
