What is affiliate marketing you ask? Well affiliate marketing is the ability to achieve greater market penetration though the use of websites who then target the specific groups online in order to obtain a percentage of the sales. For example, GoDaddy offers web hosting, domain registration, and website building therefore, they allow other websites to promote their site and in return give those website owners a percentage of the sale(s).
Now I want to discuss "global affiliate marketing," and how it can open up new possibilities for you. Many of you automatically build English speaking websites . Why you ask? Well you assume only English speaking viewers are visiting your site. However, you are absolutely wrong as the internet is a global market.
Let's discuss " losing weight," as it is very popular among search engines however, do you think it's only limited to United States? Absolutely not, even though the United States has been reported to have more cases of obesity. Nevertheless, it's a fact that people around the world want to know how to lose weight as well, since obesity is not just limited to the United States.
Now when you Google "losing weight," in English the results are 92,000,000 which is phenomenal. However, if you Google "losing weight," in German the results are 15,200,000 which is astronomically less. From this you can see how outrageously competitive it's becoming online in regard to the English speaking websites which does effect your potential to earn a income online. However, that is not the case when it comes to search results from other countries because they are not as saturated.
Therefore, it would be a very wise decision for those who are currently engaged in affiliate marketing and those interested to consider focusing on establishing websites that target other countries and their languages.
This can be done using "Google Translate," which is able to translate between two languages therefore, making it easy to customize a site in another language other then English. Furthermore, you have the ability to add "Google Translate," to your webpage. This allows visitors that speak a foreign language the ability to change the contents of your website into their language giving them the ability to ready your page(s).
I would like to end with the quote by Peter F. Drucker, "The aim of marketing is to know and understand the customer so well the product or service fits him and sells itself."
