Post subject: "viral" idea from a newbie affiliate marketer
|
 |
|
I've been thinking a lot about viral marketing and what I could bring to the table (I've submitted two articles to the banks so far, but it's too early to tell if they'll get picked up).
Anyhow, for my next site (undeveloped) I'll be offering virtual wallpaper and a matching screensaver. The screensaver's sort of specialized, but anyone with a graphics program can do wallpaper with their URL included in a corner.
Clip art can be expensive, but Microsoft Design Gallery offers a huge selection of clip art and although I have scoured the TOS over and over, I can find no reason why affiliate marketers can't use these images in their creations. The TOS is VERY generous. URL for Microsoft D/G is:
http://office.microsoft.com/clipart/default.aspx
I know this won't work for non-consumer areas like pain management, etc. but could be a very good fit for people I've seen working other areas, like gambling, yamahas, etc.
If anyone wants to see an example of what you can do with MS clip art, here's one:

Actually it could be quite good for areas like pain management, motivation, etc. ... providing rotating tips, restful scenes, inspirational quotes ...
The important thing is to keep your domain in their eyesight  and wallpaper and screensavers are good at doing that.

All I can say is, DUH.
Deb, you're dangerous and I hope you invite us all to your private island someday.
