Which is better Clickbank or CPA?

That's determined by the affiliates, and their pre-selling methods.

The reality is that different affiliates typically have hugely differing refund rates for the same products.

As any member of ClickBank's staff with whom you discuss it will quickly explain, affiliates who have very high refund rates tend to have them for every product they promote, while those of us who have very low refund rates also tend to have those for every product we promote, too.

The individual affiliate, the representations made by the individual affiliate, the traffic sources used by the individual affiliate, the pre-selling methods used by the individual affiliate, and so on, are overwhelmingly the significant factors.

A product that had high a refund-rate across all its affiliates would swiftly be removed from the Marketplace by ClickBank, because the monetary and administrative costs of processing all the refunds wouldn't cover the 7.5% profit they make on the unrefunded copies, and they'd be losing money on it.

It's also true that some niches (such as Forex), because of the overall nature of their products and traffic demographics, do tend collectively to have slightly higher-than-average refund rates, but this is mostly a red herring that has very little to do with the realities explained just above: the bottom line here is that affiliate skills and behavior are by far the primary determinants of ClickBank refund rates.

Indeed, it does. You've answered your own question, there, really?

CPA = quick easy money

ClickBank = Long term

Or Split test both and choose the one, that works best for you.

Hey. Good to know & I'm currently testing both with my website but may look more into getting some different squeeze pages & expanding on my PPC or trying out some solo ads as it goes. I can see why it takes so long to start seeing results because there are so many different methods & adding content takes time

I would be interested as to which one works out better for you. This could become quite interesting.

Choose the offers that suit your target audience best, whether it's Clickbank, or CPA offers, or Amazon etc

CPA is great because you don't need people to buy anything, and so it's safe to say that you don't have to promote or sell anything.

The nice part about being a Clickbank affiliate is that you can promote products that will earn you $20+ for every sale you make as opposed to the $1-5 for every CPA offer you have submitted.

Both have their benefits and downsides, but both are worth the time to invest in.

CPA seems too difficult to get into. I have read something and the requirements seem a bit stringent to me. I am in the process of trying clickbank which hopefully will work out for me.

i ti s easier with cpa offers. you are not selling anything. but there is a learning curve. here is what works for me. run fb ads and get likes , then advertise to the likes

Both of them are hard to earn with if you don't know your work.

I've started with CPA and I think it's easier than earning with Clickbank products.

CPA goes well for me. At the end of the day all I need is for someone to click a link with clickbank you need some one to commit to buy. Lots my hoops to jump through

You can use both the combination of CPA and Clickbank.

Fo me it is CPA

You comparing apples to oranges here. What are your business goals? Do you want to build a brand?

Cheers,

Clickbank = High Commission And Big Money

Cpa = less Earnings and Need More Effort

Good luck Bro

I've had more success with Clickbank. If you choose the right products, refunds shouldn't be a problem provided you have the right traffic.

Why not use both like I do!

Set up your funnel so your rotating different
CB and CPA offers.

Test which ones bring in the most money and
drop the losers.

It's all about testing and building your list.

Personally I prefer the affiliate platforms..

Clickbank & JVZoo...

The best affiliate launches are usually done with though these networks

In my opinion I like Clickbank. CPA is great for making some quick money (if done right) but with Clickbank you can build websites around evergreen products and work on building your lists and making sales.

With CPA they can pull the offer at anytime or cut you off because your traffic did not convert well leaving you scrambling, trying to find another offer.

Keep in mind that CPA is mostly geo targeted.

Meaning you won't get a cut unless it's from the right country. Of course you can always redirect the traffic which doesn't fit but you won't really convert it.

As for Clickbank, you can always sale the product even if the guy is from China (who knows ?)

Finally, some Clickbank products have a recurring program. This is where the gold mine IS !
CPA = a one shot deal

There is huge difference in both:

Clickbank allows you to earn anywhere between $10-$100 on various products. Some product you can earn $10 commission and others you can earn $50 commissions. You get paid per sale.

CPA offers are also good because they allow you to earn between $1 and all the way up to $5 per LEAD/OPT IN. You get paid per lead.

One advantage of Clickbank over CPA is that you not only can receive your payment weekly even if you have only earned $10 (depending on your threshold), but you can also withdraw it as soon as it's available with your Payoneer MasterCard.

CPA is great particularily when starting out as it is easier to get a conversion froma zip code or email. I have found Max Bounty to be great and using personalised weight loss programs and property rent and sales offers best. You can quite easily set up a Facebook PPC CPA ad using one of these types or another high traffic area and start to see commissions pretty fast if you nail the demographic. So ensure you tightly target the right people when placing the ad.

I personally use both.. I mean why limit ourselves?
it's all in the targeting.

One great thing is often some cb products are in niches that are very unsaturated

clickbank did not work for me, thinking to get into CPA. i willnot repeat my mistake like i did with clickbank.
i will get in CPA with prepration and knowledge.
do any e book help me to understand all about CPA?

For me Click bank products worked great and CPA on some occasions only. It all depends upon the niche, site and advertising we use.
Comparing is very hard and earning too on these programs.

Clickbank products and CPA offers are profitable when you market the offers to those people who really want them. I promote some offers from both.
