If you’ve been reading the Ferree Money Makers Blog for any length of time, then you already know that majority of my posts are about Tools, Tips, Products and Programs that help the everyday Affiliate Marketer to Make Money Online.

This post is a little different, although over the long term, this content will help you with growing your Affiliate Marketing Business, by helping you establish a relationship with a variety of PR & Media Contacts that are active in your specific niche.

You should know that there are brand new Twitter tools that will not only find these high marquis Twitter Press people for you, but they will enable you to automate the process as well. Click here to find out how.

I can’t recall exactly where I found this information, but what I do know is that many of the 742 PR / Media contacts in this post are well worth getting to know better. Imagine the Traffic you could generate if just a few of these high profile PR contacts decided to republish an article you wrote or better still, publish your RSS feed on their site? It may take some time to gel the relationship, but I sure would Digg it if Business Week or WSJ or some other high profile Media/PR person from one of these properties caught the buzz of my Blog and started writing and talking about it.

I’ll update this Excel file every few weeks, to include more niche markets and comment on how to engage some of the more high profile PR people. I’ve sorted and color coded the tabs for you by; Title/Beat and Media Outlet. Provide your name and email address if you would like me to notify you when I’ve updated this list?

Click this Link to download the PDF file containing 700+ Twitter PR Media Contacts in hundreds of different niche markets. More than likely, you will find a handful of useful Twitter PC contacts worth getting to know better.

According to the Shopzilla Publisher’s FAQ

As a Shopzilla Publisher, you generate earnings by placing Sponsored Shopping Content on your website. The sponsored content links your site users/visitors to Shopzilla.com website. You earn money based on the Shopzilla Website Activity that your users generate on Shopzilla. Earnings typically depend on the level of integration and contextual appropriateness of the Sponsored Shopping Content on your site as well as the nature of your user’s activity on Shopzilla.

How do I get or create Sponsored Shopping Content for my website?

To get or create Sponsored Shopping Content, click on the Get Content tab available on every page. From there, you may choose from variety of Content Types including banners, search boxes, and text links. Once you find the content that you want, retrieve the Content Code necessary to display that content on your website.

Note: Do not alter the Content Code provided in any manner; it will adversely affect our ability to attribute earnings to you.

This is a Shopzilla Sponsored Content element in the form of a Search Bar. It’s very easy to select content with your Publisher’s AID embedded in the code, so you earn a commission on the activity of the buyer that was sourced from your web site or blog.

Here’s another example of Sponsored Shopping Content that I generated from the Shopzilla Publisher’s portal. In this example, the element is centered around the “Live Green” theme.

Shopzilla assigns each Publisher an Account Identification Number (an AID). When you retrieve Content Code from the Publisher Portal, your AID is embedded into the Referring URLs of that code. Shopzilla Website Activity is attributed to a publisher when Shopzilla detects the publisher’s AID in the Referring URL from which a Shopzilla User originated.

When you consider the massive growth in online shopping and the added value Shopzilla delivers by providing online buyers with real time price comparisons on millions of products and that the average Affiliate Marketer can actively participate in sharing in the revenue stream created by promoting the Shopzilla model, it makes a lot of sense (to me anyway) to get on board with Shopzilla and create your own (private label) online shopping mall.

Video Traffic is quickly becoming one of the best methods to drive traffic to web sites. Services such as YouTube.com have made it very easy for individuals to upload their videos and share it with their friends and the rest of the YouTube.com community.

Some smart affiliates just create interesting videos that are not directly related to the PPC | CPA offer. They are just hoping that there videos will go viral and be seen by a mass audience so that whatever they are pitching at the end of the video is seen by hundreds of thousands of people.

Upload your videos to one of these video-sharing-sites where millions of people can see your stuff:

YouTube http://www.youtube.com

MegaVideo http://www.megavideo.com

Google Videos http://video.google.com

Metacafe http://www.metacafe.com

Yahoo Videos http://video.yahoo.com

Nowadays, you don’t have to be a professional videographer to produce quality video content. Two of my favorite tools are VideoWebWizard and EasyWebVideo.  Both are affordable and simple to use.

Both offer a money back guarantee, so your downside risk is low. I will post a more detailed review of EasyWebVideo shortly.

1. Age- Everything you say and write, including slang, allusions, word difficulty, and topics should be adjusted to meet age appropriateness.

2. Gender- Despite the dual roles men and women tend to fill, most individuals can be segmented (and sold to) based on gender-specific interests or needs.

3. Location- Values and culture tend to vary based on demographics. Having a clear understanding of regional difference will improve your targeted messages.

4. Education Level- Similar to age appropriateness, education levels should determine how you address your prospects and what benefits they will find in your product or service.

5. Income- The needs and wants from one social class to another should be a guide to the types of products and services you should be selling them.

6. Marital Status- The values, needs, and desires of married persons greatly differ from those that are single. Marketing family messages to single persons (and vice versa) can lose the deal for you.

7. What Keeps Them Up At Night- This is the most important one. You’ve got to know your prospect’s fears, worries, concerns, excitements, hopes and dreams. When you know the conversation inside your prospect’s head, you can enter it, speak to it, and build a relationship that leads to a customer.

The first thing you’ll want to do is shoot over to the Clickbank Marketplace. This is real quick, easy and painless, so if you follow this specific formula you can nearly guarantee the products you choose to promote will be winners (meaning converts well, and low refund rate). So let’s just continue here with our memory improvement niche idea.  Keeping in mind our Profitable Products Strategy. Remember we did a search earlier and it returned back some results for “memory improvement” eBooks.  So let’s take a look at those again:

Here’s what you’re looking for in a product:

A high price point

Surprisingly, the conversion rate on more expensive products isn’t much different from what it is on cheaper ones, and more expensive products give the seller more flexibility to offer higher commissions to you.

Gravity between 20 and 100.

You want popularity, but not not so much competition that you’re squeezed out. Gravity between 20 and 100 is the “sweet spot”. A gravity of less than 20 means the product isn’t popular enough to sell well. A gravity of more than 100 (with a little leeway to the upside) is probably too competitive for you to win, at least when you first start.

Earnings per sale of $20 or more

You can make money with products that don’t pay that much, but it’s harder because your AdWords expenses eat into your profit margin a bit. Remember, you’re going to be paying for your clicks (although as you’ll see, you’re going to be paying vastly less per click than most affiliate marketers).

A High Gravity Figure.

This basically refers to the percentage of sales that are generated by affiliates rather than the merchant themselves. If this figure is higher, it means that affiliates are currently making money promoting this very product. And therefore, since that is our goal, it only makes sense to check this.

As you can see, from the criteria I’ve laid out, none of these products would be stellar choices. But, nevertheless, if most of the figures are close and one is a little off (say, low gravity), then it may be worth testing in your market. Perhaps that particular product just hasn’t taken off yet, and may with a little assistance from you.

And that’s about it. See I told you, quick, easy, and painless – I wasn’t lying. I focused on Clickbank here, because that is what I recommend you use to find products to promote. Reason being is CB usually has quality products for almost any niche you’ll run across. On top of that you get paid every 2 weeks, so it make reinvesting your profits a little easier than being paid monthly.

Of course, there are other stellar networks and here are the ones I recommend:

Commission Junction (pays monthly)

pepperJamNetwork (pays bi-weekly)

Marketleverage (pays monthly)

Azoogle Ads (pays monthly)

The goal is to find at least 3 solid products to promote within the niche you found from completing the niche finding exercise outlined above. IF you can’t find any good products, you have two choices:

1. If the market is red-hot, untapped and just waiting to be taken adventage of, you could create your own product, find JV partners, add your product to affiliate networks like Clickbank, and start cashing in on some serious money.

2. If you’re not sure, or the market doesn’t seem all that particularly hot, then it’s not worth the time and effort it takes to create a product, provide customer service and everything else that comes with it. Simply leave the niche and go onto the next one.

Eventually you’ll find what you’re looking for if you keep at it long enough. Once you’ve found a niche and verified there are in fact sufficiently good products to promote to the market, it’s time to do some more in-depth research. Time to go undercover like 007, and really get to the bottom of what your market really wants.
