Austin Affiliate Summit Meetup Recap
Last night I attended the Affiliate Summit Austin Meetup and saw Shawn Collins give a presentation titled “How to Create an “Ask the Expert affiliate site“.
Shawn advised that potential publishers pick their niche around what they personally are an expert at. Publishers can then field questions and answer the questions by video. Transcribing the video is also a great way to get SEO value out of your responses.
Additionally, Shawn encouraged everyone to post these videos to Youtube using the transcription as the video’s description along with 1-3 links to affiliate offers.
Tools recommended in Shawn’s presentation:
- Transcription Service - http://castingwords.com/
- Online Personal Assistant Service – http://www.fancyhands.com/
- HMTL Form Tool – http://www.freedback.com/
Give Back!
Shawn also announced a charity auction on atxaffiliates.com to “..benefit Travis County Emergency Service District No.6, who courageously fought the central Texas wildfires of September 2011″. If you’d like to support those who served during the Texas wildfires, please bid on one of two great items up for auction.
Platinum Pass to Affiliate Summit West 2012 ($879 – $1749 value)
Interview on the Affiliate Tip Blog (Shawn never sells interviews so this one’s value is “priceless”)
Don’t miss this chance to give back and support those who serve your community!
