Clickbank: This is crazy!

My personal blog/domain is 5 years old and was PR 4 before I turned lazy and abandoned the website leaving only the email that I use as my official paypal email. The site, though PR4 was not giving me any significant figures. I didn't put adsense or any other affiliate links. I did not build list whatsoever. I abandoned more than 3K unique visitors per month. because of inactivity, Google turned it's PR into 0 during the latest update,,, I am wasn't worried...Lots of my visitors were asking what happened to me and why I was not updating my personal blog for nearly 6 months. I had no time to respond. Last 2 months I decided to redirect the whole website to a clickbank affiliate link just out of my freakn' mind.. LOL.. and forgot about it....

Since I am not promoting any CB product anymore, I 'm only checking my CB account sometimes once every 2 months adding the slow CB website that annoys me. Today, out of nothing I logged into my CB account and was shocked and stunned. I have $1,056 in my account and didn't immediately remember how I made such sales with just one product.

I realized it was my redirected personal blog.... I am really shocked until now and can't believe.... I made 39 sales since last February 12 and got 2 refunds..... truly amazing! I can't believe on this surprise money

    LOL Talk about set and forget profits!

    I could totally see someone taking this and making it into a WSO... just show us how to build a website and put it in a high traffic area (somehow, someway) and then literally just forget about it.

    You're going to fail. If you're afraid of failure then you do not belong in the Internet Marketing Business. Period.

      LOL, well done (think what you could make with a bit of effort!).

      Also - it's not often you find a thread called something like "Clickbank: This is crazy" and it turns out to be good news, rather than someone complaining.

      I'm sorry, I am misleading someone. It's a personal domain (my name) but the content was more on moneymaking and some mixed topics...

    You know, I've noticed a massive increase in my Clickbank conversions after the Google Farmer/Panda update. Hops have actually decreased a little below average, but the conversions are there. Either way, you won't see a frown on my face! Nothing better than a little passive income

      That's awesome and reminds me I have a couple of domains sitting around that would be good fodder to try this with.

    Thats great. Well done. There's nothing better than discovering a small stash of cash for work you've done a while ago!

      The same exact thing happened last year when I received a surprise check from affiliate.com after months that I abandoned them..

    Congratulations man! That's a pretty insane story. Still struggling with making sales for this guy here, that being [me] of course. Heh. But this kind of lightens up my spirit, I think I'm gonna take my time to promote my squidoo lenses for some much needed free advertising tonight.
