So you would like to make some money as a clickbank affiliate?

If you have tried before and not had any luck don’t be disheartened, making money with clickbank affiliate programs are a very genuine possibility 1000′s of affiliates make a good living doing so, and I want to help you get your foot in the door and point you in the right direction with my useful clickbank guide.

First of all if you don’t have a clickbank account search for clickbank in Google and sign up for one as you will need this if you wish to sell their products, this will also allow you to sell your own digital products process your payments by credit card and allow affiliates to sell your products at a later stage if you decide to go down the product creation root.

Now that you have your clickbank account you will need to go to the market place and search for some products that you would like to promote, it’s not really worth promoting anything to start with if it makes you less than $20 commission, make sure you check the sales letters if it makes you want to buy then it is probably a good one to promote.

It may be helpful if you promote a product in a niche, hobby or interest that you have, that way you will know if the product has a powerful sales letter or not and whether what they are selling is of interest to the audience that you represent.

Do take some time to select your product as getting the right one is paramount to your success of getting your first sale

Now that you have your product that you wish to promote, and your happy with the affiliate commission that it offers you need to find some methods for marketing your chosen item

Now I would recommend if this is your first time and if you don’t have experience with “Pay Per Click Marketing” then you should follow some of these steps to get free traffic until you land your first sale and have some money to invest, as it could otherwise become an expensive lesson which may put you off before you have even stated.

Right now here it is your 4 steps to free traffic!

Step 1. – Articles & Reviews

Write and submit reviews and articles in relation to the product that you are promoting. This is made easier if you have chosen first product that you are interested in, as you will have an idea what people would like to know.

Don’t rush these articles its imported to provide valuable and unique content to the reader, do not copy text from other places on the internet, and don’t use an automated program to generate the articles for you, this will very quickly see you banned from all the human edited articles sites.

Step 2. – YouTube

A new and valuable source for traffic do not spam the comments, but look more at making a short video file this can be images and audio if you don’t have a video camera, but don’t copy other peoples images form places like Google images or off websites you have seen as this as you will violate the copy write legislation

Step 3. Facebook and MySpace

A new emerging source of traffic both these sites have a lot of members now, your registered with one these too or other social networking sites why not tell your friends about the offer then setup a FaceBook group (or what ever the MySpace alternative is)

In my experience FaceBook groups get a surprising amount of traffic just by people searching for groups so including the keyword(s) in the name of your group that people will be looking for could see you getting some new members fairly quickly.

Step 4. Forum Marketing

This has been around for a long time, first thing I would like to say is DO NOT SPAM the forums, dropping links with out any purpose or reason not only will get your account suspended but wont help you either as forum moderators are quick to remove spam links.

Instead the best method is to go onto the form and have your link included in your signature, but look for posts where people are asking questions and see what ones you may be able to help with, you will be much more respected by the moderators and the forum members if you are providing useful content to the forum and helping other members and they will be more likely to have a look at your site from the links based in your signature if it sounds like you know what your talking about.

After you have made a few sales and you can see that this is working, there is another method that you can use to get even more out of your traffic and building a more sustainable income from your efforts

This works best if you choose a product that has a lot complimentary products surrounding it

What is a complimentary product you ask?

Well a non internet example might be you go to the pet shop and buy a “cat”, you later go to your local supermarket and you see an advert for “cat food” this product goes very well with the product that you have purchased now you might be wondering how we are going to able to find the people that have bought the cat to sell them the food, this is explained below

Rather than sending people to the offer pages

You can get a much longer lifetime customer value out of your traffic by sending them to a landing page were they can opt in to your mailing list in order to download a free eBook about the product that they are interested in.

Once you have their email address you can send follow up promotions, but it is important to understand that you should also provide free, interesting and useful content as well as your promotions this way they will read your emails an be happy to be part of your list.

You need to design your messages to build up a customer relationship which will keep them enthusiastic and interested in what you have to say, now you can use an auto responder and write a predefined set of messages to send out on time lapses that you choose, I pay about $20 a month for mine, if you cant find one or are not sure about which one you should use your welcome to get in contact with me and ill do my best to try and help you find one that best fits your situation and budget.

Now I am sure that you can see the value in this, instead of the pervious method of which was send people through an affiliate link to a sales page that may get anywhere between a 0.5% conversion rate up to 5.5% you can be looking at a figures of people converting for your opt in list as high as 30% providing you have optimized the page.

If you are looking for a free product that you can give them you can write your own, or buy them from various sites that sell eBooks with re-sell rights, alternatively I do regularly send out free e-books with re-sell rights to my own opt in list which if your interested you can find out more information at the end of this article, but please continue reading for now as I would like you to benefit from what your about to learn.

What makes this more exciting is that before they may have looked at the sales page been interested but wanted to look at it later but never went back or lost it etc, well now you can contact them and you can send more than one email reminding them about that particular product, and remember what I was saying about the complimentary products well now you have a warm list of people to offer them too.

If you build up you clickbank niche this way you will generate a much better return on your traffic. And if you write you own product, you already have a warm list of people who want to buy this information.

One other note on this subject would be to only sell products that you believe in and would buy your self, you don’t want to sell people bad products if your in doubt over a product don’t sell it to your list, preferably buy a copy your self a see if it is something you would be happy paying for.
