clickbank or commision junction?

[Radix]

I have accounts for both, but haven't tried either yet. Anyone willing to list pro's and con's or point to a thread where this has already been done?

The pros of clickbank:
Information products = high commissions
all e-commerce and refunds handled by clickbank
no website required to sign up
cons
a lot of junk
may be tougher to sell a downloadable product vs. physical

pros of commission junction:
many of the top companies have programs there
good products to promote
cons
lower commissions than clickbank

If your site is about technology or digital things, use clickbank
if your sites is about home, hobbies, etc... just use CJ

Try them both and see which one works for you

[eshannon]

Totally different ballgames. They're two totally different strategies, digital products vs physical products.

I think the best thing about CJ is that advertisers provide publishers banners and such to promote their product rather than with ClickBank your left only with an affiliate link.

One other factor. Clickbank products can be sold to anyone around the world. CJ products tend to be sold only in the country of the advertiser because of shipping costs.

I definitely recommend Clickbank, however the annoying thing about clickbank is the tracking system fails a lot however many people have said this does not affect the amount of sales you receive, just the tracking of hops.
