How to succeed with ClickBank

Finding the product
You can search for a product at the ClickBank Marketplace where several thousand vendors display their
products in an organized directory.
3.1.2 Is the product worth promoting ?
a) Look at the product price and commission rates
You should aim for products with a reasonable rate of commission, say 50%, to make your efforts worthwhile.
Be aware that ClickBank deducts transaction fees from a sale: here is a calculator
b) Is it an in-demand item ?
The Marketplace listings are ranked by popularity, so you can see which are the in-demand items. Popularity
is determined by a number of factors, the main being the amount of sales and the number of affiliates making
sales over the last 8 weeks. Note therefore that a product at the low end may still turn out to be popular
especially if it is new.
c) How effective is the sales page ?
Visit the sales page of the product to confirm that the sales copy does a good job of selling the product.
(There’s another important factor – sales page leaks – which we cover in the next section)
3.1.3 Check out the affiliate support
The vendor should provide you with much more than just a link to join the affiliate program. Check for any
useful promotional material (e.g. sample ads, articles, solo mailings, endorsement/reviews, signatures).
Ideally there will be an affiliate mailing list so that the vendor can convey useful news. You want someone
reliable who won’t disband a program or make rule changes without telling you.
Tip: Check how responsive the vendor is with a simple enquiry.
