Adult Affiliate Guide

Do you want to make money in the adult entertainment industry? Promote porn paysites and earn revenue for every member that signs up. You can build your own adult blog using free online tools even if you are completely new to content promotion. Most adult affiliates work alone and from home.

Basically, there are three ways to promote adult paysites you can consider. They will let you jump into the adult entertainment business without significant investments and decide whether or not this kind of work is for you. They are:

• Free websites
• Galleries
• Blogs

Personal and corporate blogs have become very popular in the last few years. Community sites such as myspace.com, livejournal.com and blogger.com attract millions of users every day. Because of their huge web traffic and ease of use, blogs are often used as an online promotional tool.

Of course, the adult industry could not miss this new trend. However, traditional community sites specify that adult content is not allowed, so they can remove all your hard work without warning. You have to choose other ways to create your porn blog.

The basics of adult blogging

Adult blogs combine text messages and images from a particular niche. They have numerous links to gallery pages hosted on the sponsor websites, or tour pages for paysites. The messages encourage the surfer to click on the link to get more content.

If the visitor likes the sponsor website and decides to pay for subscription, then the blogger receives commission. Affiliate programs are based on a pay per sign up system ($25-$40) and/or a revenue share formula (around 50%).

In addition, you can get money for webmaster referrals (5%-10%), international sign ups, check sign ups, sign ups for a trial, etc. These commissions and payments can add up to a significant sum over a longer period of time.

Can PPC and SEO work together? You might be surprised at the answer to that question, particularly when you've most likely read so much about the differences between the two approaches. Actually PPC and SEO can be integrated effectively to help you build a better site.
PPC and SEO are different!

Before we start talking about how you can get PPC and SEO to make music together let's just confirm that the two are separate methods of attracting visitors. SEO focuses on building a lot of traffic naturally by improving your site's optimization for specific keyword phrases and attracting backlinks. PPC is used to get immediate traffic and, because you're paying for it, it's heavily targeted towards buyers and doesn't waste any time getting straight to the point. Conversely SEO is happy to attract anyone including info-seekers and tire-kickers. So the two employ quite different methods of keyword research and landing page construction.

But we're not here to talk about their differences – we want to see how you can use PPC to boost your site's SEO, and how good SEO can boost your PPC campaigns. If you were to treat the two as mutually exclusive you could be missing out on a lot of valuable information.

Stop! Don't start doing PPC just because you think it will improve your SEO. The tips in this post are only if you are currently using PPC and want to get more from it.
One big way SEO helps PPC

Even if you're relatively new at PPC you're most likely familiar with QS (Quality Score). QS is Google's method of ranking advertisers and a high QS (ranking is from 1 to 10, with 10 being the highest) will result in a lower cost per click and better ad exposure. So it's no wonder that achieving a high QS is a priority for advertisers.

But how do you get a good QS?

A slap is not usually a pleasant thing and particular when it hits your PPC campaign in the form of a “Google Slap”. It's a phrase that is often misunderstood to refer to any perceived punishment from the major search engine including a drop in the rankings or being de-indexed, but it only has to do with your AdWords campaign.

A Google Slap is when your ad and associated landing pages are determined to be of such poor quality (known as the Google Quality Score) that Google will endeavor to remove your ad from the paid listings by lowering its position and raising the bid price so your campaign is no longer economical.

There are stories (both real and urban legend) of websites that have never recovered from a Google Slap. In fact, common practice seems to be abandon the domain that has been slapped and start again.

So by now you know enough to know that you want do everything you can to avoid the Slap. But how? Here's 6 tried and tested techniques to keep you from getting slapped by the long arm of the Google AdWords team.

1 – Have a multiple page website – Linking your ad to a single page site just won't cut it anymore. It doesn't matter how relevant that one page is, if it's not part of a larger, more established site then Google doesn't see your site as being helpful to the visitor. Ideally, your site should contain at least 10-15 pages of unique quality content, plus a Privacy Policy and About Us/Contact Us pages.

2 – Link to other pages on your site – When a visitor clicks through to your landing page you don't want them distracted to click through to other pages on your site. You want them to focus on your sales message. This means you might want to remove that menu sidebar for your landing pages. At the same time it's important you do have links to other parts of your site somewhere on your page, perhaps at the bottom of the page.

A new website is like a newborn baby. And no, I’m not referring to feeling like you went through labor pains to build it!

A newborn is fresh into the world and relatively unknown except to its proud parents, although not for long. New parents typically spend the next few days broadcasting news of the baby's arrival to family, friends, and basically anyone else who'll make the mistake of feigning interest. The baby's network grows and extends, going from unknown to well-connected in no time.

In a similar way, your new site enters the world wide web (of approximately 2 million websites and counting) and the only person who knows about it is you. Obviously you want to remedy that situation - fast.

So just like a proud new parent, you need to go about getting the news out that your website has arrived. Here are our top five ways to broadcast your baby website and start building its network asap.

#1 – Links from established websites

When you have CNN reporting news of your baby's birth to the world, everyone knows about it in record quick time. Matt Cutts, arguably Google's most well-known engineer, confirmed that getting a backlink to your site from a high profile website is the fastest way to get your page indexed, adding that indexing can be done in fractions of a second.

So if you can arrange to get your site linked to from a well-known site with a good PageRank, then that's the best method of getting your site linked quickly. Some ways to get backlinks from authority sites include:

* Write and submit a press release to www.prnewswire.com about your new site
* Submit articles containing backlinks to your site to Ezinearticles, Wetpaint, HubPages and Squidoo
* Add linkbait articles to your site for adding to social bookmarking sites like Digg or Delicious

#2 – Submit your site to Google

"Hello and welcome to Best Buy, would you like to see our selection of pineapples?"

Would you ever expect to walk into an electronics store only to have them offer you a great deal on fruit?

How about going to the local gas station to find them offering you the best designer fashion? (Exxon Versace?) Sounds absurd right? Of course it does! But it's no less absurd if you do it online!

I am officially sick to death of irrelevant advertisements on websites. If I go to a site that is about learning to play guitar - on what planet is the webmaster on to think that I, at this moment, am looking for new apps for my (nonexistent I might add with only a slight hint of resentment) iPhone?

Not only am I incredibly unlikely to click on this ad, but the entire user-experience of the website has been ruined.

At Affilorama, we often talk about creating niche websites. What is a niche? A niche is a small subset of the market that is interested in one very specific thing. It might be a certain problem that needs solving, or a specific need that needs satisfying.

Relevance could not be more important in niche websites, because the person is likely to be there for one reason. If you have a website about curing acne - then what's the point in having anything on that website that isn't about curing acne? You can have as much information as you want about different subtopics of acne - prevention of acne, types of acne, causes of acne. You can even have topics that are related - dealing with other skin blemishes or marks, scars, etc. But an ad for "clean your computer's registry today!" - Not so much.

Now often when people are starting out in online marketing, they are so focused on making money any way they can with their website that they try to cram as many different monetization methods into the site as possible. Unfortunately, this often leads to completely irrelevant ads and pages on an otherwise good site.
