How To Profit From Untapped Affiliate Markets

Affiliate marketing can be extremely lucrative as we all
know, but when you're just starting out it can be daunting
looking for affiliate products or programs to promote
because most of them are already being heavily promoted by
more experienced affiliate marketers than yourself.

So how can you find untapped, and therefore potentially
highly profitable products to promote as an affiliate?

Well let's start off with Clickbank, the leading retailer of
digital products, and one of the most popular affiliate
networks.

You're probably wondering why I'm mentioning Clickbank, as
most of these products have incredibly fierce competition,
but because they sell so many products there are still some
very profitable opportunities.

For example, most people naturally go straight to the
best-selling products in each category to find products to
promote. However, while it's a natural assumption to make
that all the best products on Clickbank are the biggest
sellers, you will often find some hidden gems that haven't
yet taken off for whatever reason, that you can make very
good profits from promoting on PPC search engines, in email
promotions, on your websites, etc.

That's one way of profiting from Clickbank products. An even
better way is to find new products and promote them heavily
as soon as they go on sale, particularly the quality
products that have strong sales pages. I'm not talking about
the internet marketing / make money products here, as these
are often heavily promoted by the internet marketing gurus,
but the various different niche products which have far less
competition.

This can be extremely lucrative, and is now very easy to do
because there are specialist sites that will allow you to
constantly scan for any new products that have just entered
the marketplace.

Okay, let's now look beyond Clickbank, as there are many
other untapped affiliate markets out there.

Do a search for 'affiliate networks' and you will come
across hundreds of different affiliate networks, each of
which will often list plenty of companies and their
respective products that you can promote as an affiliate.

These networks present plenty of opportunities because the
sheer volume of companies out there that have an affiliate
program means that there will inevitably be some companies
that are under-represented by affiliates, particularly on
Google Adwords and other PPC search engines.

This is particularly true outside of the US, where you will
generally find that there is far less competition in both
the organic search results and the paid search results.
Furthermore, if you look outside of the US, and look out for
companies that don't belong to an affiliate network but
instead have their own individual affiliate program, you can
make substantial profits as you will have far fewer
competitors.

This leads me on to my final point – promoting affiliate
programs in non-English speaking countries. While you will
find slightly less competition promoting affiliate products
in countries like the UK, Canada and Australia, you will
find that you will have substantially less competition in
the various non-English speaking countries of the world.

This is potentially an absolute goldmine. The problem you
have of course is not finding suitable products, but
translating your sales page or website into a different
language. Most translation software simply won't cut it as
they very rarely translate perfectly into the natural
language, and therefore will look amateurish, which will
adversely affect your affiliate commissions.

The best way of translating your website, therefore, is by
going directly to a native in-country translator. You can do
this either through making friends with someone from that
country over the internet, or by going to one of the many
freelance sites out there and hiring someone to do the work
for you.

Okay that basically sums up just some of the ways you can
find affiliate products to promote that have limited
competition. Remember there are so many opportunities out
there because you will never run out of companies to
promote. The world's a big place and there will always be
good companies out there who need more affiliates in all
kinds of different niches.
