Hi Fellows,
How to choose a best conversion rate products in ClickBank?
Any recommended products?
Do you use their e-mail swipe to promote (or create you own)?

Thanks

    Conversion-rate information isn't published. (Nor would it actually be helpful to you, if it were.)

    I always create my own. I find that the ones the vendors offer are usually terribly "salesy", and I know that I can sell far more by "not trying so hard". The vendors, reasonably enough, talk about the qualities of the product itself, but that isn't what really makes the sale: the strength of the trust-based relationship between the person recommending the product and the subscriber is most of what determines the outcome.

    (By the way, the best-selling product and the best-converting product will be two different things. If I ever wanted to find out what the best-selling product is, it would be so that I can make sure to avoid promoting it - I prefer to promote products that 3 or 30 other affiliates are promoting, not products that 300 or 3,000 other affiliates are trying to sell ... and I'm wondering whether that might be a better bet for you, too?)

    When choosing for a high converting product in Clickbank it's very important to check the gravity of the product. The more the gravity, the more people promote (have the ability to promote) the product because it's converting well. Then check the sales page. Video sales letters convert best for clickbank products.

      Sorry, but this just isn't so at all.

      A high gravity figure doesn't actually suggest that the sales page is converting well, at all.

      There are also high-gravity products there which very few affiliates are promoting.

      There's also absolutely no correlation at all between gravity and conversion-rates. Some of the products with the very highest gravities have those high gravities because countless affiliates each buy one copy through their own affiliate-links (every single such sale adding its point on to the prouct's gravity score), and may not actually be promoting it at all.

      There are many products with single-figure gravities consistently outselling products with three-figure gravities. This isn't unusual at all, and of course there are reasons for it.

      These posts/threads explain some of these very widespread myths of ClickBank gravity figures (a couple of which you've just repeated, above ) ...

      Again, with apologies for sounding argumentative about it, my experience (and that of many other full-time affiliates I know) is exactly the opposite of this.

      So much so that I'm now almost completely unwilling, as an affiliate, to promote anything there that has a video sales-page. My conversion-rates for those - across a wide range of different niches - have always been consistently worse.

      This thread suggests some of the reasons for that: http://www.warriorforum.com/off-topi...o-content.html

        In my experience, prospects seldom buy on their first visit, so the "gravity" metric and even how well a vendor sales page may convert are mute points. The only criteria I've ever used for selecting Clickbank products were relevance to my niche lists followed by empirical evaluation of product quality. IMNSHO, everything else is just wasteful distractions and voodoo-type market research. :rolleyes:

    You probably shouldn't be promoting the most popular products anyway

    Everyone has already seen them so a lot of the people that would buy the product are already spent.

    The competition would be much greater considering the amount of marketers that had the same idea

    You can sort the products in the market place on clickbank according the gravity. The
    ones with the highest gravity are the ones that are converting well. Some people
    say that the ones with the high gravity are too competitive, but these are the ones that are
    converting well. So you just have to be creative in how you promote these products

      Sorry, but this simply isn't right at all: there's absolutely no correlation between gravity figures and conversion-rates at all. (Reading the post above yours - and its links - would help you, if you want to know how and why this total myth has become so widespread, and to see what gravity figures really measure. )

    Gravity does not mean a thing. You are better to research for a product that fits a niche you are promoting. A product that everyones selling is just that everyones selling so unless you can send to your list the first day it will just be old news.

    I would also choose products that can pay you monthly commissions. So a residual type offers is good to go with.

    I agree. You are better off finding products that are not heavily promoted and fit your niche. The gravity means very little. It doesn't tell you the depth of the sales. All gravity means is an affiliate sold one item in the last 8 weeks. It doesn't tell you how many total sales. There are many low gravity sites that sell well. eg gravity = 3 but each affiliate makes 10 sales per month and the vendor makes many direct sales.

    Ignore the gravity. It's useless as a real indicator of anything other than product popularity.

    Go to the sales page of the product itself. Does it SELL YOU? If you're enthusiastic and want to learn more about it - chances are others will as well. That's the only metric that matters.

    hi,

    The product that I would choose, would depend upon the content that I'm currently creating.

    Always try and make sure that the affiliate product is RELATED to the article that you're crating.

    Try creating a tutorial about how to best use the product, etc.. This is what I have found that works best..

    Choose a product that has a professional and convincing sales page and you can ask the owner for a free affiliate copy of the product so that you can see the value of the actual product itself.

    Hi, I understand where you're coming from with this mindset. The logic is that if something has high gravity or converts well generally, it will convert well for your list and for every list, because it must have inherent value, right?

    It's not quite that simple though - there could be many reasons why a product has gravity or converts that are not to do with the products core value. So, the real question is - who are you selling to? If it's your list, then you know (or ought to know) the demographic and which products will provide the most value to your customers - if you don't know that, then you need to find new ways of engaging with the customers on your list, understand why they joined your list and what will be of most value to them - then, if you're selling a product that someone else has created - test it yourself to check it's value before promoting it to your list. Relying on a sales page or an incomplete set of statistics as a basis for promoting a product is no way of ensuring long-term value for your customers.

    Always draft your own sales copy if you can. Apart from the fact that it will be suitable for your list, you don't run the risk that your customers have seen the same sales swipe several times before, which isn't going to do a great deal for your credibility or authority. If you don't do it already, you'll also be learning and refining a valuable skill.

    And in terms of the details for gravity, conversion rates and sales volumes, Alexa Smith has everything exactly right, so I'd definitely be following that advice . . .
