Did you know that there is a new wave of marketing called social decision marketing? Basically this involves a way of influencing the customer mindset so that they are compelled to purchase the products you sell. In affiliate marketing the best way to achieve this is to review affiliate products and create affiliate products review.

Here are the 8 steps you have to take in order to start your own affiliate product review website and earn much higher affiliate commissions:

1. Find out your high-selling niche first
The first step before even proceeding to create affiliate products review is knowing what items customers buy the most. You can get this information by searching Google for the ‘most searched keywords’ or just go to Yahoo! And they wil list the hottest searches today. Do some keyword research to find out which keywords are searched the most today – are on demand, so you could get a better idea of what’s hot today and which products (that can be sold) are the most popular now. Once you know the list of these affiliate products, you will also know which niches do well and sell more.

Today I want to tell you about our newest change in Click2Sell.

We have totally revamped Click2Sell checkout pages in order to make them:

• look much better.
  Our old checkout version looked very "so-so" (especially compared to our new checkout page). It wasn’t compact, used a lot of space in the page. Its style was very simple, perhaps even too simple. However, it hardly fit the overall look of our merchants websites and it was quite hard to edit, add your own images and additional text without disrupting the code and checkout page look. 
  In the new checkout page version we used the page’s space a lot more efficiently, so that customers could see more at a glance. Various sections (product information, payment options, billing information, credit card information) were clearly separated to make checkout review process easier.
  The new design elements will make customers feel more comfortable at this page as it looks more modern, up-to-date and solid. It just looks less cluttered than the old version.

Here I continue the topic about product adding and management in Click2Sell system.

Please read the first part of Everything About Products Management at Click2Sell before reading this one.

Step 2 – Product Details

Product Link Name: it is an auto-generated name, consisting of your username + 3 first letters of a product’s name. Currently it is not possible to edit this name as it creates some unwanted issues to the product and its affiliates (i.e. when the product’s link name is changed, affiliate link is changed too; an affiliate might not know about this and keep using the old affiliate link). So we had to disable the ability to change your product’s link name. The system generates it automatically, so you don’t have to do anything here.

Product link name is used in product’s buy link and in affiliate links (which is http://AffiliateUsername.ProductLinkName.click2sell.eu).
