Starting at midnight, Tuesday, October 13th, and going for 48 hours again this year, will be the sixth annual Prime Day! Amazon is pulling out all of the stops with hundreds of thousands of deals for its Prime members.
And the best part? It’s a global event* and that’s where you can shine with our service because Geniuslink is also pulling out all of the stops to help make this one the most successful yet!
We’re very excited to announce Geniuslink’s auto-affiliation support for the HP affiliate program (US and Canada). The Hewlett-Packard Company (HP) is a globally known and respected company with over 80 years of innovation. HP Inc. (the personal computer and printing spin-off from HP Enterprise), ranks 58 in the 2018 Fortune 500 and has a product catalog of over 40,000 products in the US storefront.
We’ve long believed that Choice Pages are an awesome way for creators to boost their revenue and diversify their affiliate partnerships. Armando Ferreira (of the popular MondoBytes YouTube channel) shared a case study with us that yielded exciting results (more than doubling his revenue!). But like many of you, we wanted more data. We wanted to know that his experience wasn’t an exception.
So we set up a Choice Page experiment with other YouTubers to see if we could prove that Armando’s experience wasn’t a fluke.
Turns out we were able to consistently produce amazing results! Over 11 separate tests, we saw an average of 2.2x improvement in earnings-per-click with some clients seeing as much as 4.2x lift!
Have you already checked out our guide on running experiments with the Geniuslink service? It’s a thorough tome of knowledge that’ll give you the how and why for running experiments with your affiliate links to ensure that your setup is performing at the highest level possible.
In that guide, we present two key examples for testing, and one of them is testing to see if Choice Pages perform better than direct-to-Amazon links.
As you start hitting your stride with affiliate marketing and leveling up your skills, there is an important discipline to be explored – experimentation. Your affiliate links could be making you greater commissions if you can figure out what to tweak.
Trusting your gut is essential in the early days of your adventures in affiliate marketing, when “anything is better than nothing” and “perfect shouldn’t get in the way of done” reign true. Eventually, you may find that your head and your gut disagree on things. When this happens, it’s a good time to start running some experiments with your affiliate links to discover what truly performs best.
