Make A Fortune With Newspaper Classified Ads

By Chad Bailey

If you are new to affiliate marketing or have been trying for years you probably understand how challenging it can be to make a profits from marketing your affiliate products using paid advertising. Whether it be pay-per-click or banner advertising, the cost or advertising usually outweighs the amount you make in sales.

The truth is that in 2009 there are just too many affiliate marketers out there competing for the same keywords and this has driven the price of pay per click advertising beyond the point of being profitable anymore. Most people have proof that online affiliate products sell but they need to find a more cost effective/unsaturated advertising medium so that they can make a significant profit.

Sometimes a person really needs to think outside the box to separate himself or herself from the competition. There is a special promotion method that is being used and is gaining popularity and yielding big profits for many people. Right now there is still room for affiliate marketers to jump on the bandwagon and get a piece of the pie.

This new system involves advertising affiliate products such as ClickBank digital products in newspaper classified ads. The basic idea is to be able to make a tiny newspaper classified ad that profits just $10 (or 25% profit) and to take that same ad and place it in over 3000 other newspapers around the country. If you do the math you can see how this simple idea could make any affiliate marketer successful beyond their dreams!

The main factor that makes newspaper classified advertising work so well is that people enjoy reading the classifieds. This is probably because of their simplicity whereas clicking through different sites and offers online tend to overwhelm people with too much info. When you draw someone to a web site through a newspaper ad they wont become as distracted and may not bother to shop around but rather purchase your product on impulse. People also tend to trust newsprint ads more than online ads as many people associate the Internet advertisements with scams.

Don't limit yourself to paying for advertising online. When it comes to marketing your online products or services you may find that taking the road less travelled will often grab more attention and even cost less.
