2 Top Mistakes Of Affiliate Marketers
#1 Not Sticking With One Plan
The number one reason why most affiliates hardly see their earning stats increase is due to their weakness to stick with one plan. Nowadays people are jumping from opportunities to a new money making opportunities when the old one seems to take a long time to profit from. When a particular affiliate product is hardly selling or there's no commissions coming in for an affiliate, he or she will just jump into a new affiliate program hoping that the new program might solve their problem. However I can say that the main problem is with the affiliates. If you're promoting an affiliate program just stick with it no matter how long it takes for you to make money. Of course there would be a time when you do have to change your affiliate program in order to earn some big affiliate commissions. However I suggest you just to stick with an affiliate program and learn the tricks of the trade to brush up some good skills.
#2 Choose The Wrong Niche
Another reason why most affiliates fail in affiliate marketing is due to their poor choice in choosing the right niche to target. Most affiliates will grumble when their friends started making some quick cash quickly compared to them although they are working harder than anybody else. Well I can say that the problem is not with the products or affiliates, it's in the niche that you're targeting. If you target a wrong niche that won't have much buyers, then of course you can't make any affiliate commissions. The best way to avoid this problem is by doing some keyword research and identifying the most famous keywords with high search volume. Once you got a keyword to target, choose the most relevant affiliate product that's related to the keyword that you're going to target.
Those 2 reasons that I mentioned above are the most obvious reasons why most affiliate fail in their affiliate program. If you're an affiliate, hope you're aware of the mistakes that you're making and try to brush up your skills to avoid those mistakes in future.
