Affiliate X Factor Review - Part 2


I'm quite excited at the moment as I am going through the Affiliate X Factor program which is a six week course - the idea is that you focus on one week an then a the following week the next video is sent to be watched.

Well I just finished Week 2 which I was able to break down into two sections for my notes (you are asked to print out a workbook to write down notes at the beginning of the course).

(1) The landing page. The video explains the main points that a landing page should have, some of them less obvious than others and looks at an example landing page with opt-in form.

(2) Adwords. The only advertising method discussed so far is of course Adwords. The video explains how to setup campaigns including the use of the keyword suggestion tool. Also discussed is how to track your conversions - this is what I found the most useful which prompted me to adjust my auto responder straight away! A few tips are also given such as what conversion rates you should expect for keywords and how much you should be bidding for.

Well, so far so good. After the first two weeks of the course I have selected which markets I am going to attack first, I have a template for my landing pages and I'm looking forward to putting it all together.

Week 3 will look at forging the relationship with my list subscribers - something I am keen to see as I already have a small list.
