Three Reasons Why You Might Want to Use a Landing Page   by MattE

As an affiliate marketer you know full well that the quickest way to get your sale and your commissions is to get your prospect to their target as fast as possible with as few of clicks as possible.
The fastest way to do that, of course, is to link directly to the pay page. Unfortunately, due to the terms and conditions of some affiliate programs this may not be a possibility. That's where the landing page comes in.

One of the reasons to use a landing page then, is to stay within the terms of the affiliate agreement you agreed to when you signed up for the program you're promoting. Most programs will offer you some sort of tool in the form of a banner or premade landing page that you can use for this purpose, however, using something a little more unique than what thousands of other marketers are using typically increases conversions exponentially.

Many people use PPC marketing strategies to generate traffic to their affiliate campaigns, this is the second reason why you may want to consider using a landing page. Some PPC search engines no longer allow direct linking to the merchant so, if you want to advertise using their services you have to link to a domain or site that you own. Of course, this is where your landing page will be.

The third reason you might want to use one is to give yourself more control over your campaigns. Maybe one program or product isn't converting as well as you would like. If you're using a landing page all you simply need to do is swap the links from one program to another, or, change the landing page itself to an entirely different one.

Of course, these are three simple and quick reasons why you would want to use a landing page for your affiliate marketing but you can quickly see how great of a tool they really can be.
