Should I Create A Unique Salespage For Clickbank Only?

Hi,

I use 'clickbankswitch.com' for that. You can use it to sell your product using 2 different payment processors on 1 sales page.

As for me, for my own sales I use Paypal, then for my affiliates its Clickbank.

The script auto switches to Clickbank when its an affiliate referral and uses Paypal (or any other payment processor) when its your own referral.

Hope that helps.

Interesting, I've never heard of that Thanks!

Hi Dayne,

If you have another order-page elsewhere, where the affiliates' ClickBank cookies won't earn them a commission, that's what we affiliates call a "payment leak", which (to many serious, pro-affiliates) is a huge no-no for promoting the product at all.

It's one of these things about which perhaps only 5% of the affiliates will really find out and care, but those might be the 5% of affiliates who collectively bring in 95% of the sales, because they'll be the professional, serious ones who are aware of and concerned about "these things", because they really treat it like a business and think things through carefully.

Few people buy anything at their first visit to the sales page. It's no use to me if there's a risk that one of my potential customers will put the product's name into Google, find another, different sales-page/order-page set-up and buy it that way. My work, time, energy, effort and skills found the customer, but I don't get paid! I'll obviously promote instead a product that doesn't carry that risk for me. It's kind of a "no-brainer", from the pro-affiliate perspective (and that's the perspective from which the vendor therefore needs to look at it!).

It's one of those "easy-to-see once you think about it" things?

I think the only sensible answer, if you want ClickBank affiliates, is to pay ClickBank their "unnecessary" 7.5% on the ones you sell yourself, as well. Otherwise you might be saving a few dollars but losing hundreds/thousands you could otherwise have made.

Sorry, I still you a p.m. - am very slow-moving at the moment, please excuse me.

Totally makes sense Alexa. I'll just stick with one main site and order link only.

What if I put it on Amazon too? This could show up in the search as well. Will this turnoff affiliates?

I'll just have to take that risk, because Amazon is huge and I definetely plan on putting it there as well. Maybe even Ebay, etc

I'm certainly not a super-affiliate (working on it. ) but, I agree with Alexa, and I when looking at offer to promote, I do look at those things. I just don't get why people expect free promotion. Come on, you gotta pay to do business.
