Clickbank new strict product approval...might as well switch
I have a couple products approved by them a couple years ago with a breeze. Haven't done much but working on a few things.
Now I have just completed my first product in 2 years and now trying to get it approved, and i"m shocked by how much strict and regulation clickbank now requires for a simple product approval. (I'm not in any marketing niche btw)
First they required me to put their new Clickbank Footer Disclaimer at the bottom of the sales and thank you page...not just the disclaimer but the actual java script with their tracking to back to them.
"ClickBank is the retailer of this product. CLICKBANK® is a registered trademark of Click Sales, Inc., a Delaware corporation located at 917 S. Lusk Street, Suite 200, Boise Idaho, 83706, USA and used by permission. ClickBank's role as retailer does not constitute an endorsement, approval or review of this product or any claim, statement or opinion used in promotion of this product."
I find this to be unnecessary and redundant, and not only that but this code actually creates a few extra vertical spaces between the last sentence and the footer menu. This creates a huge gap at the bottom which doesn't look right for my site.
Second, they want me to disclaim that the name I've been establishing my brand with is a pen name to be put at the bottom footer as well along with their disclaimer above. Now I have to accompany 2 disclaimers making my site look not as professional.
Do they want our business or NOT?
I believe it's time for Clickbank to step aside. They've become so vendor unfriendly.
I'm not going to sacrifice what I worked so hard on establishing my brand just to accompany some new unnecessary regulation on their part.
(Any though comparisons among PayDotCom, 1ShoppinCart, eJunkie alternatives?)
