I am currently running a mobile contents site, including ringtones, games and wallpapers. I don't know how to recruit more affiliates and what affiliates I can target on?
I tried to search different keywords to find affiliates, its came out a large amount of related websites, some are big companies, some are personal websites. Both are valuable but which one you think will be more effective on running CPA? I also tried to send emails to the potential affiliates but the response rates were not my expectation. So I now want to recruit affiliates on the forum, do you think I can try this?
Forums are one way to get the word out and recruit. Some affiliate forums allow an announcement about your affiliate program. For instance we do, but we prohibit programs that involve any type of download, so you can't advertise here. But other forums you could, just need to read the rules. Each forum is different.
However, the best way to leverage forums is to get involved, help people, answer questions without being self promotional at all. Have a good sig. More people will see your sig up in the discussion areas than will see your one ad down in an advertising section of a forum.
I'll try to answer more people questions to increase my reputation but it really needs more time to build a relationship with them. Thats why I always think of affiliate marketing is not an easy job.
Oh yes..forgot something important I want to ask. As previous I mentioned, I'd sent out emails to the potential affiliates but the response rates are not good. That's another problems, how do I attract their attention to read my email? My email subject 'business cooperation', content about my company's info and expressed that I am interested in advertise on their website. Anythings else I can also include in the first email? Please give me some ideas, thanks a lot.
