Have you ever wondered how Super Affiliates make the big bucks? Well, they use some key tools (and don’t tell anybody about them!).
One of their techniques is to transform a hard to remember, long, complicated affiliate link into a short, easy to remember domain name. And then forward that domain name to an affiliate link.
Most, if not all, affiliate programs, will not permit you to use their name, or any variation of their name, but you can register a generic domain and point it to your affiliate link.
This is not a domain that you would expect people to type into their browser. You can use it when you place listings in pay per click search engines.
So instead of sending users to your site, you can drive them straight to the sites with a domain that makes sense for the particular site.
It’s also helpful to have a domain for your affiliate link in your opt-in newsletter.
Not only does it give you a shorter URL to feature, but also it gives the impression that you’re featuring a link as a public service, not because you are making a commission through it.
Be sure to ask your affiliate manager if it is permissible to send traffic to their affiliate program directly from pay per click search engines, as some affiliate program do not permit it.
