      I have a question, can you just put the hop link in your clickbank account on a campaign on bing or bidvertiser? or do you need to create a tinyurl or a landing page first?

        You can direct link using Bing ads.

        You don't even need to create a tiny URL

        Hope that helps

          Like Isaiah says, you can use your clickbank hoplink in bing to direct link to the sales page of the product you are promoting.

          But a better way to do things is to set up a squeeze page and run the traffic from your bing ad to it first, to capture their email addresses before sending them through to the salespage.

          This way you build a list of people you can continue to market this and other products to in the future.

          It takes more work to set things up this way, than the way you want to do things, and there are some costs involved, such as domain name, hosting, and an autoresponder.

          But, it gives you more potential to actually make a profit long term.

        It will be the same for 6,000 people, too. There are reasons for it.

        If it were as easy as that, why would all those vendors be paying us up to 75% of the takings just for providing the traffic? Why wouldn't they just do that themselves?

        You can try it, if you want to, but it's extremely ill-advised.

        I'll explain why, in detail, if you don't mind following a link or two.

        I'd start here, paying particular attention to the third of the three points, because for most people that's the difference between "income" and "no sales": What are the best ways to promote click bank products? (That post was actually made in 2012, but it applies even more in 2015!).

        You need your own landing-page (not necessarily a squeeze page: Landing page and squeeze page difference ) and you need to collect the email addresses of your visitors.

        Here's the thing: to earn significant money from affiliate marketing, you need to do three things ...

        (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, as mentioned above!);

        (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 address and using email marketing, of course, you can't do any of the three and you'd just be throwing away all the traffic you ever generate that doesn't buy anything immediately. And that's all or almost all of it.

        You'd just be trying to fill the bathtub by opening the taps fully but without bothering to put the plug in the hole first.

        What kind of way to run a business would that be?

        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 ?

        Beware of people posting in forums saying that "you can just direct link from Bing ads to hoplinks". Those people are not making their livings as ClickBank affiliates.

    Are you guys having success with direct linking to sales pages? I tested that sending people with highly targeted traffic to venus factor. 600 people in fact, and didn't make a dime. The keywords were long tail and highly targeted.

      I'm so glad nobody ever told me this nonsense, when I started, just in case I might then have been naive and inexperienced enough to listen to it. You can't possibly know whether ClickBank will be the OP's "solution".
