My First ClickBank Project.Your Suggestion Needed!

8 replies
Hi Guys,

Its not been up to a week since I started my first clickbank project with this How To Be A Lady Killer promoting a product that you'll find here - http://www.lady-killing.com/

My promotional strategy had been to populate the blog with unique articles and then link to the vendor's website within the article.

I have also written and submitted 4 articles at EzineArticles Submission - Submit Your Best Quality Original Articles For Massive Exposure, Ezine Publishers Get 25 Free Article Reprints but only 1 was approved. I am editing the other 3 articles which were denied approval on the ground that it has a few grammatical errors.

I will be very glad to make a sale within the next 15 days. So I have come here to ask for experienced suggestion(s) on how to get within the shortest possible time.

    As your site is still new it will take a while to rank well in the search engines. Populating it with unique articles is a start, but you will need to work on getting backlinks to the site to improve the rankings. This will likely take alot longer than 15 days.

    If you want to get traffic (and sales) straight away article marketing is effective, but you'll need to submit alot more than just 4 articles. Maybe try submitting 3 articles a day to Ezinearticles until you have a steady flow of traffic - then you can start adding a few more methods of traffic generation.

    Jrussell is right here. You are on a good start by writing unique articles for your site. But with promotion, you cannot make a considerable income if you cannot write more than four articles. In my experience, article marketing only starts to be truly effective if you write at least five articles per day. It would help if you can get a proofreader if you are not a good writer. It will save you time in writing. But this can also be good practice for you.

    Good luck!

    I always cringe when I see somebody trying to build a long term
    business on a property they don't control.

    You could build backlinks and traffic to this thing and it get yanked.

    All you're efforts - gone.

    Seriously before you do anything else consider whether this is the way
    you want to move ahead.

    Web hosting is a few lousy dollars per month.

    I would start giving you advice on repackaging content to convert your
    ez articles to PDF's for document sharing sites, to ping/rss etc your feeds,
    to spin the content into quality content you can submit to other sites.
    To create a press release, to convert your articles to videos and syndicate
    with tubemogul etc etc.

    But me personally, I wouldn't build a site I held with any value in mind
    on hosting that could shut me down in a heart beat.

        I tried submitting my 1st product before in clickbank, I experienced the same thing as yours, not getting enough sales. what I can suggest to you is, instead of submitting articles to get sales, submit articles to build your subscribers list. I had a hard time before to get some sales because most people who are visiting my site through article marketing, they will just leave.

        I tried to change my strategy, I created a squeeze page and submit articles about the product that I'm giving away through my squeeze page, most likely they will enter their email address to get free access to my product, and once they become my subscribers, I built relationship, I provided them good content, and that's the time that I recommended my own product w/c is listed in clickbank. I got decent result because they are already my subscribers and I already have their trust.

        If you wish to get some sales within the next 15 days, it really depends on your effort. But if you want to build a long term business, article marketing is much more effective if you are building a subscribers list than getting sales. And once you have enough subscribers, just be consistent in providing them good content, in the long run, your subscribers might become your affiliates as well, just provide them all the promotional materials and offer them generous commissions. That way, sales will become much more easier, and it's long term compare to hoping to get some sales within the next 15 days.

        That's my cents. hope it helps, goodluck.

  • My suggestions:

    Change blogspot for either free hosting or purchase some.

    I think your top post (Sticky Post) should be shorter and for the sort of product you are going for it should be more of a story format. As it is now, I think if I was someone visiting your website I would expect those details within your blog. Where as if you explained HOW you now feel better and how bad you use to feel after using a product and giving them a bit of a teaser they are likely to want to know just what exactly helped you to that success (The product)

    Create a pseudonym and explain how you were timid/shy and unsuccessful before and how you got her chasing you and so on.

    Your keywords seem very low in search volume for the effort in Articles. Bearing in mind that you have too many links spread around your blog, and not everyone clicks those links. And when they do, usually most products convert at less than 3% so I suggest finding some stronger keywords.

    Your best keyword (guessing its approach a lady) gets 480 searches per month with phrase match. I'd suggest looking for a keyword that gets between 1500-3000 searches and then some related LSI keywords that are between the 500-1000 search range.

    Place your links above the fold, and either the middle or the end. That is if your first post is short and can be almost read without scrolling. If infact the article is long and your user stands a chance of forgetting about the links place one at the bottom.

    I also think your links need to be more enticing.

    Also I see google already sees you in the search engine (Though I suggest looking for better keywords). But you have no backlinks, so you could supplement the site a bit with bookmarking backlinks, blog posting, forum posting, and youtube.

    Contrary to the above, you can rank fast depending on the level of competition, the optimization of the competition and the amount of backlinks. This also depends on whether google decides to notice you straight away or leave you hanging for a few weeks.

    Thanks guys for your wonderful contributions as well your warning about using http://www.blogger.com for my affiliate marketing campaign.

    I must confess that I have heard in the past but feels like using the blog platform for a start. I will pay for a website as soon as I start making sales.

    Where I will then replicate and consolidate my success.

    However I have some questions.

    1. Where else could I submit articles that will generate good targeted traffic just like EZINEARTICLES?

    2. What other keyword-combination apart from 2 dominant ones that I use presently could you guys suggest giving the product I am promoting -http://www.lady-killing.com?

    3. Has anyone here tried using zimbio.com to promote affiliate products and how successful is the campaign?

    4. Has anyone here tried using Facebook pages or Groups to promote affiliate products and how successful is the campaign?

    5.Forgive for this but I have to ask what other free promotion strategies that you guys have used which made sales in 30 days or less?
