I Need Help Understanding Clickbank Method.

1- you should care and not just picking a niche and believe it will make you money, if you do that with every niche you'll be just wasting time and money, take a look a what is trending right now and search for what people are willing to buy not what does interest you

2- making a landing page is not easy at it seems, you need to make (or download / buy) a landing page that is proven to work and that convert visitors to buyers

I believe that sending traffic to your landing page may be more profitable: you can add an email catcher and offer more products on the same page (as freebie maybe ?) doing this will get you more emails and will help you start you email marketing compaing so getting traffic to your landing page is the best way (for me )

This isn't right at all, Del. It's the vendor who needs a landing page that "converts visitors to buyers". Those are called "sales pages". Affiliates need a landing page that converts visitors into "people who are giving you their email addresses". Those are called "opt-in pages" (and one specific type of them is called a "squeeze page").

No. I hope not, anyway!

There are indeed , but all the ones that work, from which significant numbers of people really earn money that's worth talking about, share three common fundamentals. They're explained here, in a post which will perhaps help you: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post7110523

Here's the "key concept": to earn significant money from affiliate marketing (and this is especially true for ClickBank), you need to be able to achieve three things from your marketing ...

(i) Keep your potential customers returning to the sales page (because not so many people buy anthing much at their first visit to a sales page!);

(ii) Make increasing sales (ideally at progressively higher prices) to the same "captive audience" who regularly rely on and trust your recommendations;

(iii) Establish the credibility and trust necessary to do both the above by earning's people respect as a provider of niche-related information.

Without building lists of your visitors' email addresses, of course, you can't do any of the three and you'd just be throwing away almost all the traffic you ever generate that doesn't buy anything immediately (which tends to be almost all of it!). Otherwise you're just trying to run the bath by opening the taps fully but without remembering to put the plug in the hole first, and you lose almost everything, almost immediately.

For most people, most of the time, it's just about as simple as that, overall.

These three threads are more informative ...

Is it a good idea to spend some time on building a mailing list ?

Without Building a List, How Consistent is Your Income from Affiliate Marketing

Does anyone even make money online without an email list?


.

Create a squeeze page, where you can collects emails/leads from there. - use either aweber, getresponse or mailchimp.

Do provide lead magnet (for example free ebooks, diet tips yada yada) for your squeeze page. People usually don't opt-in for nothing, well at least I don't.

Once people opt-in for the offer in your squeeze page, you may redirects them to the clickbank landing page. Whether they want to buy or not, it depends. The most importantly, you have their emails.

Then, for traffic generations, you can use pay-per-click. There is a quite a buzz about Bing Ads on ppc section. Maybe this thread could be helpful:

Hope this helps you a little bit.

You are better off referring people to your website than directly to your CB which gives you a wide range of traffic options.

How you handle the traffic that lands on your site is another matter. They should be targeted and led through opt in like Alexa Smith said.

While picking your product you should also look at the pricing, preferably something with a reasonable commission rate, a product with a good review and viable market.

So you're going the affiliate marketing route?

Then, just focus on 3 skills, regardless of whether your promote Clickbank products or any other type (it's all the same):

1) Mastering traffic generation, so you drive big traffic to your opt-in pages.
2) Mastering opt-in conversions, so you maximize the number of people who join your mailing list.
3) Mastering mailing list autoresponder tactics and copy, so you engage your subscribers and make the most amount of sales from your mailing lists.

If you master those 3 skill sets, starting from the top to bottom, you *WILL* make money as an affiliate. Forget anything else. Nothing else but these 3 points matter when it comes to affiliate marketing. Don't let anything else sidetrack you from these 3 points. These are the 3 pillars of affiliate marketing, all the rest is noise.

There you go, Alexa and Anonymous Affiliate have laid it out for you.

Personally i cannot compare myself to them when it comes to affiliate marketing but when i started with clickbank i decided to go with the Youtube route. Many said youtube and affiliate marketing is dead and usually no idea why but i would listen to them however no that time.

I got a few videos together, ranked them and bang money started coming in. Not thousands over night but quite a bit for something that didn't take long to set-up. I then added a squeeze page i re-directed them too before i let them visit the actual sales page of the product i was promoting and that did make a difference in sales, and of course i was also building an email list.

So maybe that is a good way to start promoting clickbank products but again it is up to you and what you feel comfortable doing.

I just wanted to give you an idea of what is currently working for me.

Kind Regards.

yes i see all the tips are very helpful, i am jusy gonna tp apply. anyway thank you all who respond.
