What Is a Solo Ad? - How Can It Be Effective In Affiliate Marketing?


Affiliate marketing has evolved in the past coming years, new ideas come out as old ones are thrown out and useless. But is there a marketing strategy that's surefire no matter where the internet goes? The answer to that is email marketing; in fact that's what most of those "so called " gurus have been using for years to secretly earn themselves a small fortune online. Most of them already have a list of there own that they have built up from a product they have created in the past.
So how to we start to build a list? and what is a solo ad?
It is an email list owned by another person or company where you pay a certain fee to distribute your ad to there email list. This is a great way to build a list on your own, all you need to do is find an affiliate product you want to promote and build a squeeze page with an opt in form to capture email address. If you're new and don't exactly know what I'm talking about just Google "squeeze page" opt in page" and you should be able to get the idea and even tutorials on how to build your own site.
When going this route you want to make sure your offer/product matches the solo ad service your going to be marketing to. There are tons of services online just Google "solo ad" and you will find companies and even individual people offering the service. Also you can checkout fiverr as well.
Most of the service's that mainly offer solo ads in the affiliate marketing niche at least that's what I have found most of so the best way to pursue this is to find a newly launched product with little to no competition to maximize your conversion rate and profit. Even though it seems really easy to market this way just write an email find a service, pay and hit send right? Wrong!
You still have to test and start with a small budget so you don't waste all your hard earned money on one huge solo ad and get half of your advertising budget back also when you find a solo ads service email the company and ask them what typically converts well. There are a lot of services out there that offer solo ads for around $20.
Just do your research and you will reap the rewards in the end.
Email marketing seems to be the way get to the word out above all marketing strategies out there. But how do you start if you don't have an email list? Directory of Ezines has an unlimited amount of ezine solo ad listings to choose from.
