truly impressed with the quality of that video. The super realistic sounding voice over paired with that super relevant and realistic imagery is absolutely perfect for a short form video to drive traffic to an affiliate
video to drive traffic to an affiliate link just like this, earning us over $55 every single time somebody views this video and subsequently clicks onto the link for this affiliate product and purchases it. Now, in terms of getting
those viewers, I'm now going to show you not only how to get people to view your video, but how to get the right type of people to view your video. In this case, specifically looking to start woodworking. And we're going to be doing
that by optimizing for YouTube search. And we're going to be using a tool to do that that I use every single day, which is Vid IQ. And I'll leave a link in the description of this video. Once you're signed into Vid IQ, the first thing you
want to do is click onto keywords on the left hand side. Now, VidIQ allows us to see exactly what people are searching for on YouTube. And by extension, we're able to find people that would have a high likelihood in being interested in
purchasing a woodworking product just like this, which is how we're going to get paid by promoting it via our short form content. Here's exactly how it works and how you can use Vid IQ to actually get views on that first video
that you upload. The first thing that you want to do to find out what people are searching for on YouTube related to woodworking with purchasing intent is to type in a very broad keyword search term into this search bar right here. So, for
example, if I type in woodworking start, we're able to see that over 1,000 searches are occurring on YouTube every single month for this exact keyword search term. Does that mean if we include these keywords in our YouTube
video title that we'll get all of those 1,000 views? Well, not in this case. And that's because the competition level is very high. As you can see right here, there are already a ton of videos that already have these keywords in their
YouTube video titles. There's too much competition. we barely get any views. it says related keywords or matching terms right here. And straight away, you can see a ton of matching keywords with
the keywords woodworking start in them. For example, here we have how to start woodworking hobby getting almost 4,000 searches every single month. But again, guys, the competition in this case is high. Not very high, but still too high,
right? We want to target low or very low competition keywords. We want to be one of the only videos on YouTube containing keywords that people are searching for so that when they do search for those keywords, they find our video, which is
how we can actually get those views and generate those affiliate sales. So, what I'll do, I'll simply sort by this competition column right here. And here we can see a few with very low competition with some decent monthly
views as well. And one that really stands out to me is this keyword search term here. start a woodworking business for under $1,000. People who are searching for this type of keyword search term specifically on YouTube, and
we know it's getting over 1,300 searches every single month with very low competition. They're performing that search with purchasing intent. They're ready to spend money as long as it's under that $1,000 price point, which our
affiliate product, which we're promoting, absolutely is. If I click onto this, guys, as you can see, search volume over 1,300 every month. competition very low. By including these keywords in our YouTube video title, the
monthly view potential is really high, especially with this very low competition level. So, for the sake of this video in this example, we're going to be including these keywords as part of our YouTube video title for that
short form video that we just created. So, the next step before I show you exactly how to upload that video over to YouTube is you want to download it. So, I'm going to go back over to Ember AI. Going to go over to the video that we
want to download. Click onto these three dots and simply click onto where it says getting value from this content so far, guys, please do smash that like button. going to show you is how to create a YouTube channel that you can upload your
YouTube shorts videos onto created with Ember AI to start generating that affiliate link to start earning those that you want to do to create your YouTube channel is head straight over to
gmail.com. Now, if you've already got a Gmail account, you can simply enter in right here to get signed in if you aren't already. If you don't have one, super easy to create, guys. Just click onto where it says create account right
here and follow the subsequent steps so you can get signed up to Gmail. Once you have logged in or signed up to your Gmail account, what you can then do is head straight over to studio.youtube.com youtube.com. And once you're in YouTube
Studio, here is where you can see your different video analytics in terms of monetized, you'll be able to see the amount of revenue that you're earning and so on. And obviously, we need to do a few things, right? We need to give our
YouTube channel a certain profile photo. We need to very importantly add that affiliate link into our bio in a very specific way, which I'm going to show you exactly how to do. Before we do all of that step by step, let's first upload
our YouTube shorts that we generated with Ember AI. To do that, on the top right hand corner, you want to click onto where it says create upload videos. video that you just downloaded. And in the title text box, you want to include
those keywords that we got from Vid IQ that we know are low competition, but also highly searched for so we can start getting those views to our video. I've simply said, "Watch this to start a woodworking business for under $1,000."
In the description, again, I've specified that call to action, which is also mentioned at the end of the video by saying, "Check out the link in my bio which is also important, guys. I've said, "I may earn a commission if you
make a purchase at no extra cost to you." I'll scroll down where it says audience, I've set, no, it's not made for kids. Scroll down even further. And this part's super important, guys. where it says altered content. Do any of the
want to make sure that you check yes because our video does generate a actually occur, which is absolutely fine, but you just want to make sure that you've got yes selected to remain fully compliant. I'm then going to
onto where it says next. Next again, copyright issues. Got a tick there. That is great. I'll click next again. And before we publish our video, we want to
make sure that we tidy up our YouTube profile. And very importantly, we want to make sure that we add that link into our bio in a very specific way to make for the moment, I'm going to keep it unlisted. And then click onto where it
link to your bio, which we're going to be driving traffic to, and to make your channel, you want to make sure that you customize it by clicking onto where it you want to give your channel a name. So, I'm going to replace my name with
example. You then want to give your channel a YouTube handle. Your handle is what will appear after youtube.com. As you can see in this example, I'm going to call it real woodworking strategies again, and simply delete those spaces.
You then want to set up a profile photo related to your channel niche. In our case, that is woodworking. And to get that profile photo, I'll simply go over to ChatGpt and say something like, "Create a profile photo for a YouTube
channel that promotes different woodworking tips and tricks." Hit enter. download it, upload it to my newly created woodworking channel along with my YouTube name and handle. And I've also added in a short channel
description as well. I've simply said, "Welcome to real woodworking strategies. I share woodworking tips, project ideas. Check out the link below for more resources. And here is that link. And that is the link that we're going to be
those affiliate commissions. Now, it's extremely important that you insert this link in a very specific way. Let me show you exactly how to do that step by step. Right now, you first want to head back
link for the product that we're promoting. In our case, that is Ted's simply want to click onto where it says promote. Enter in your ClickBank sign up. Click onto where it says continue, and there is your affiliate
link, which I can simply copy. Now, we're unable to simply paste this link into our about us section on YouTube. It's simply not permissible. You're not allowed to paste raw affiliate links for affiliate marketing into that section on
YouTube. But a way around this is to paste your link into a landing page that looks something like this. So, whenever anybody clicks onto the link for your landing page, they'll see something that says woodwork made easy, for example.
Access the world's largest woodworking plan collection and subscribe and access 16,000 woodwork plans. We want to get them to click onto this link right here. When they do click onto that link, they'll be prompted to enter in their
enter in their details, if they click onto where it says start woodworking today in this example, this call to action, this button actually contains our raw affiliate link that we just copied over from ClickBank, meaning
they'll land on that exact same product page, as you can see right here. And if they do place a purchase via that product page via our affiliate link, that's when we're going to get paid over $55 on average. And by collecting those
emails from people who we know have strong purchasing intent when it comes to woodworking. How do we know that? Well, we're able to see what they're searching for on YouTube as determined by Vid IQ. We're able to send them
follow-up emails with more affiliate links related to woodworking to make even more money in affiliate commissions. And we can actually create those emails entirely with Ember AI. Now, we're not going to go too deep into
that in today's video, guys, but if you do want to see that in a future video, definitely create a video showcasing exactly how to do that. But right now, let's look at how we can create a landing page like this to generate that
traffic and drive those sales via our affiliate link. So, the first thing that we want to do before we create our landing page is to create an image or generate an image using Ember AI, just like this one right here, related to
woodworking. So, we're going to go back into the Ember AI dashboard. I'm simply going to click onto where it says media creation right here. Then go over to make sure that generate an image is selected. And you can get super detailed
here. But to keep things simple, I'll simply type in somebody working on a woodworking project. Click onto this drop-down over here. Make sure the format is set as landscape. And for the style, I'm going to keep it at ultra
realistic. I can then click onto the image selection that it's generated. We have a selection of four. Don't worry about the dimensions right here, guys. in landscape. But let's say, for example, that we like image number one.
What I can do is simply click onto this dropown over here. Click onto number one and the image will be generated. I'll then simply click onto the image to get look like. Absolutely love it, guys.
it and simply save it to my computer. And once you've downloaded your image, we can now add our image to a landing page just like this, which is super We're going to be doing that using a tool that I use called Kit. And I'll
video. Once you've clicked onto that link and you do get signed up to Kit, you can get signed up completely for free, guys. What I'm about to show you can be done with Kit's free version. You simply want to click onto where it says
click onto where it says landing page and forms. And you can then create a landing page by clicking onto where it says landing page over here. And here different landing pages that we can choose from. Now, one of my favorites
that I like to use and what I did use in the example that I just showed you is I'll simply click onto where it says choose over here. And the first thing over here with that woodworking image that we just created in Ember. To do
that, simply click onto Max over here. Then go over to where it says replace. says choose an image to upload to upload that image that you just downloaded, which I've done. And I'm now going to replace these two bits of placeholder
text right here. And the text over this call to action button. And I've done exactly that. Those have been updated. Woodwork made easy. Subscribe and access 16,000 woodwork plans. I'm then going to scroll down and you'll see these sort of
social media call to actions. not really relevant for us guys. So, as you can see on the right hand side here, you can simply click onto the X for each of I can then click onto the settings for these social icons over here as well and
click onto the X. So, we don't need to display those either. Now, very importantly, we want to make sure that whenever anybody clicks onto this link, we capture their email address and when they enter in their email address,
they're taken directly to the product page via our affiliate link, which is how we're actually going to get paid. So, you want to click onto where it says click to edit the form, which I've done. And again, making sure that I'm sort of
matching the promotional type of language used on the product sales page itself. And make sure that you save all of this as well. And very importantly when they enter in their first name and email address and click onto where it
says start woodworking today, they are taken directly to that product sales actually start earning those commissions. To do that, you simply want to click onto where it says settings over here and rather than saying show a
success message when a visitor subscribes to the page, you want to click onto where it says redirect to an external page. That is when again you will copy over your raw ClickBank affiliate link. Simply paste it in and
that's it. We can literally click onto where it says share over here and there is a link to our landing page which we can paste directly into our YouTube about section. Now this next part is optional. Before I show you exactly how
to paste that in to YouTube, I'm going to copy over the link. And as you can long. It's a little bit messy. I do recommend, again, it's optional, using a free linkshortening website such as bit.ly. If you go over to
app.bitly.com, you can simply sign up and create a completely free account. And you can create a shortened version of that link. To do that, I can simply click onto where it says create new over here. Go over to where it says shorten a
link and paste in your landing page link right here. And I'll type something in such as woodworking strategies. And then simply click onto where it says create link. And here is our shortened link which I'll copy which we can paste
directly into YouTube. And going back over to our YouTube channel again, customization. Underneath where it says links, you want to give it a link title. links, you want to give it a link title. I've called it 16,000 woodworking plans.
And for the URL, that is the shortened link that we just created, which we're going to be prompting the viewers of our videos, as you saw as generated in Ember AI, to click onto after watching our short form content. I'm then simply
publish over here. And our channel is now set up with the landing page link in our about us section which we're driving traffic to via our short form content. If you remember, we kept that first video that we uploaded unlisted. So,
let's make sure that we switch it over to publish. If I go back over to that video on the right hand side here, you can simply click onto where it says visibility, change it from unlisted to public, and then click onto where it
says done and then save. And now that your channel's set up, you don't want to to build out your channel by going back over to Ember AI and generating as many of these AI short form videos as possible, driving traffic to your
affiliate link in the niche for the affiliate product that you're promoting. And remember, when you do create those videos, you want to make sure that you're utilizing Vid IQ to search and research as many titles related to your
niche as possible that you can create videos around. For example, if I type in woodworking hobby into this keyword search bar right here, you can see woodworking hobby side hustle. Those are keywords people are searching for over
3,000 times every single month on YouTube with low competition. There is a world of these woodworking videos that you can create to start driving traffic to your affiliate link. Now, obviously, we did use woodworking as an example,
that specific product in this video, but this method with MBI and Vid IQ can literally work with any ClickBank affiliate marketing product that you so choose. And the best part about this is you barely need anything at all to get
said on their website, guys, you don't need any design or video skills. The images, the videos are fully edited and designed for you. No coding, no copywriting experiences. You can create different emails, blogs. You don't need
to write any of them yourself. And you don't even need any affiliate marketing knowledge to get started. To be honest, I haven't seen any affiliate network I haven't seen any affiliate network that has integrated an AIdriven full
content creation suite where you can literally create any content that you want for affiliate marketing and promote it across both paid and organic MBA, you can either sign up with their
starter or their pro plan. The starter plan is only $47 a month. And I say only because $47 is less than the amount that we can generate from literally one of those affiliate conversions in this specific example for that Ted's
woodworking product. With the starter plan, we can create or Ember AI can generate 10 of those short form videos every single month, allowing us to upload one video to our channel every 3 days. And they've also got image and
video content generation allowing you to generate 10 images per day and five scratched the surface, guys. They've got a browser extension which integrates directly into your personal Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and WhatsApp. You
can even connect your Instagram account and get a profile feed analyzed, and the AI will come up with a 9-day content calendar and tailored insights. I'm definitely going to be covering a lot more of Ember AI's features in the next
few videos, guys. I'm super excited about what ClickBank has done here. Let me know what you think in the comments of this video. And if you got value from this video, please make sure that you smash that like button, subscribe to the
channel, and I'll see you very shortly in the next online money making video. in the next online money making video. Take a
