You should already understand how useful a skill like split testing is. It can double or triple your traffic,Making Money with Affiliate Marketing using Trafficswarm Articles your list size, and your revenue.


However when most internet marketers, just starting or pros alike, think about split testing, they mainly consider split testing on sales pages and squeeze pages.


While evaluation on squeeze and sales pages is paramount to your success as an internet enterprenuer, which is only possible if you have access to the webpages you are sending visitors to.


And unfortunately, marketers are not the owners of the merchandise that they are advertising.


Therefore the problem is how to take advantage of the power of split testing being you are only an affiliate using TrafficSwarm?


This is how it's done.


We'll say that you've determined you desire to be in the weight loss business -- you've done some research to find that it is a profitable subject, people who need to lose weight are seeking assistance, and a multitude of individuals pay out thousands of dollars every day in hopes of getting thinner.


So you decide to advertise a weight loss product from Clickbank, and you have picked one that you think is going to convert highly. It appears good, with a high gravity, and they pay a hefty percentage as a commission.


Most likely, what you would do is just make up an advertisement in TrafficSwarm, give it some credits, add in your clickbank URL, and let the ad run.


Sound right?


Not really, that's how you will never grow your business. you are destined to the same results you have from the start maybe not that good.


Understand, it does not matter if you have sells by promoting that product if you could have made more by promoting some other competing product.


Then what you should do in place of this is have two competing products at Clickbank of the same niche. Use the same ad for both of them, and assign the same number of credits to each. The only thing different between them is the webpage URL you are giving traffic to.


Then, let both ads to go until you have run out of all the allocate credits.


After the credits are used up, take a fast look at the amount of money you've made by advertising both product. It's most likely for sure that one of the products will have earned more than the other.


But that is not all, because that is not the whole story.


Understand, just because you have had identical number of ads displays (ie the amount of times your ad was seen by someone), and even though the advertisments were identical, statistics show that the two ads will recieve a different number of clicks.


So what you need to do is compare the value of each click you aquire from this experiment. For example, if you recieved $200 from 100 clicks, you have recieved a value per click of $2. It is simple math: Revenue earned divided by Clicks.


So, figure out your "value per click" for both of your two ads. Clickbank makes it easy to see your sales for each product, and TrafficSwarm will show you how many clicks each advertisment got.


A couple clicks on your spreadsheet and you will know your answer.


If product B makes you more than offer A, then stop product A and go with product B, but only for a short while. The true revenue increase is going to come by going and finding another offer, let's call it offer C, and doing a another test.


If you keep testing, and keep on improving your value per click, you are on your path to making more money as a marketer with TrafficSwarm traffic.
