30 October 06
There are many options for earning income from your web site through affiliate advertising.
One such scheme is Commission Junction. It enables you to link up with many different companies and place their ads on your site. You receive a percentage of any sale that is made as a result of these advertisements.
It is necessary then for the site publisher to select ads carefully to match the content of the page which has attracted the visitor, so they might want to buy the advertised products.
Small blocks of text link ads are often the most successful, due to the fact that visitors nowadays often ignore obvious picture ads as they are so used to seeing them.
Well-integrated ad links that match the colours of normal page links have been proven to be very successful. However it is important to make it clear these are ads, and not to try to fool the visitor. He or she must be able to trust your navigation links won't suddenly send them off to a different site.
It makes business sense as well as common sense to keep visitors happy so that they will want to return, and maybe click on more ads in the future.
