I learnt these from the DirtyCPA training videos and they comprise of the following tools and ideas …

• Link Cloaking


Make sure you have a system whereby your affiliate link is not obvious to your visitor. You want to prevent them from seeing you’re likely to be making money from the link and to discourage other affiliate marketers from finding the affiliate offer you’re directing to.

• Geo-IP


Dynamic IP scripts will automatically insert the visitors location into your text. Use it to make your landing page look like your offer is perfectly suited to your users location.

• Exit Hover


If a visitor moves their mouse close to their browsers back button, set a banner to display a message, warning or last-ditch offer to discourage them from leaving.

• Exit Pop


If your visitor still wishes to leave, force an unblockable pop-up at them as your last attempt to hook them.

• Scarcity


Use a date-insertion script to suggest that the offer will end shortly. Do everything you can to encourage the visitor to act immediately before it’s too late.

• Coupons


This is pretty self-explanatory and you can use this with the scarcity principle. Speak to your affiliate manager to see if any coupons are available.

It would be great if I was skilled in web design but I’m not and, for now I’d prefer to save time, buy a range of landing page templates and modify them than to bother trying something from scratch.

I picked up two template packs today from LPDesigner today which i’ll be using for the next few months.
