It's the weekend and I just know you're itching to make your first affiliate sale without blowing cash on PPC.

So… here's a little technique to get you doing just that.

Go find a product you'd like to be an affiliate for, make sure it has a decent payout and make sure there's not an overwhelming amount of pages on the web about this product. Try Clickbank, MoreNiche, MarketHealth – places like that.

Use the keyword tool at Google - https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

…to make sure folks are actually searching for your product. You want to see phrases like "(product name) reviews" or "(product name) discount code".

And don't forget to check the competition.

Now here's the important part…

Go and buy a domain name containing the name of your affiliate product. Maybe something like (product name)reviewsonline.com or even buy(product name).org

Write 3 or 4 posts about the product, give it a favourable review but also point out its flaws.

Point people to your affiliate link.

Make sure it's easy to see, preferably before the posts at the top of your blog or just below the header of your webpage.

Now write 3 or 4 articles and point them to your site/blog/webpage using the product name as your anchor text.

Then… sit back and wait for the affiliate sales to roll in

Ok… it's not quite as quick and easy as that. You may need a few more inbound links, you may have to mess around with the layout.

But you'll soon understand the power of a relevant domain name for the keywords you want to rank for.
