Clickbank promotion strategy that works?

by kazimuhith

Hi Everyone,

Recently, I have been promoting Clickbank offers with PPC advertising campaigns. I am using Bing Ads and Google Adwords. I am an Amazon Marketer mainly, but I have gained a lot of experience and success while promoting Clickbank offers.

I made $391 in 3 days and $500+ in 5 days.

I want to share what I learnt and have a few questions for you:

1) High gravity offers did not convert well for me. It is the medium gravity offers (with gravity 50 to 100) that are doing well. What are your experience promoting high gravity products? Any luck?

2) Weight loss offers aren't converting at all... zero sale. You guys having any luck?

3) After selecting an offer, I start with a normal landing page that directs visitors to Clickbank offers through "watch now" or "get instant access" button without email capture. Directly adding squeeze pages from the start didn't do well. What about you guys?

Thanks in advance.

    Maybe you should try a softer sale. Lead them down a funnel, instead of throwing the product at them. Nowadays hard sells aren't that effective doesn't unless its one of those "I have to have that" products.

    Weight loss will most likely need an attractive product/offer with an attractive website/landing page. Its a heavily saturated niche, and people aren't going to pull out their credit cards and make a purchase unless they're really convinced that the product will work for them. If the product landing page is mediocre, and your own landing page is also lacking, then its gonna be hard to get a sale. Traffic is also a huge factor.

      Great idea. Initiating the process with pre-selling to make it softer should work better. Any other suggestions, TheOrca?

      I haven't had success with weight-loss offers yet. No wonder why! Thanks.

    1) as usual, medium gravity converts well.
    2) weight loss is dead market today, but if you are scientific it will works fine.
    3) landing pages will give you some money, but funnel pages will give you a lot.

      Thanks mostCPA. Better sales funnel is required for long term benefits.

      if weight loss is dead, what is alive and kicking and actively sought after by people?

      thank you

        The best opportunities will incorporate some of what has made weight loss services so successful in the past along with the more comprehensive lifestyle choices that today's consumer is looking for. Businesses that can resonate with THAT consumer will continue to thrive.

        I guess you should consider the following products alternatively:
        1-Protein bars
        2-Juices
        3-Protein Powder
        4-Keto Diet
        5-Keto Books
        6-Keto Supplements
        7-Matcha



        but in case you don't mind to sell physical products, so take those trending products that you can consider selling:
        1) Flame lamps
        2) Minimalist watches
        3) Backpacks
        4) Portable LED Projectors
        5) Night masks
        6) Nootropics
        7) Avocado Oil
        8) VR Products
        9) Bluetooth Smart Watches
        10) Black Sugar
        11) Waterproof Bluetooth Speakers
        12) Car Air Purifiers
        13) Selfie Ring Lights

          Thank you for your useful thoughts mostCPA. You need to have a brand and big responsive customer base to promote high gravity products.

      First, you need to choose a niche that you are personally interested in. Then, think of a game plan on how you can add value to the customers. Then , think of traffic, choose a product and try promoting them.

      If you have some budget, buy a domain, hosting and think of PPC advertising to see how it goes. That's the quickest method.

      You can build a blog, do some SEO, achieve followers in Facebook and Twitter, and try promoting stuffs. That's the long route.. but a cost-effective one.

      Get you feet wet and have a feel of internet marketing... and rinse-repeat what work and throw away what does not.

    Hi,


    this is an interesting post - thank you for sharing your experience.


    With regard to :


    3) After selecting an offer, I start with a normal landing page that directs visitors to Clickbank offers through "watch now" or "get instant access" button without email capture. Directly adding squeeze pages from the start didn't do well. What about you guys?


    I agree with this - especially using email capture - I found that this tends to put a lot of people off.


    Just having an interesting series of articles about the product I am promoting seems to do best.


    I often use Facebook - I usually create a Facebook group for whatever I am promoting and this will bring people back to interact.


    With this method there is no need for visitors to subscribe to an email list and they will often come back and look at the Facebook group that has affiliate links to Clickbank.


    Best Regards

      Agree with you Ged3. After using simple landing page to redirect traffic, I reverted to squeeze page. But the number of visitors to the affiliate offer reduced drastically. They are unwilling to submit their emails. Now, I use squeeze pages only to offer that are converting well.

      Creating a Facebook group is a great idea. I will try. Thanks for the idea.

        why not offer them a super-dooper too-good-to-be-true free gift first to get their email, then emal them your offers from that list?

        you need a good lead magnet

        Are you giving people something such as a free report for opting in?

          Yes I offer free reports and guides, but I find it is very difficult to get people to sign up,
          so I don't always bother with my list - I just get them to go to my Facebook pages or areas of my site as much as possible and this seems more profitable.

    WITHOUT a lead generation strategy you DON'T HAVE A BUSINESS.

    It's churn and burn. You are not building an asset.

    Why don't put this offer in the thank you page?

    I'm about 99% on having to get an email list.

    With one exception, if you have a product that sell with direct link, but doesn't with a squeeze page.

    Yes, you can blame this on the copy, but your business shouldn't be based off of one product (unless its yours). if you are an affiliate marketer, than promote that one product direct link and find another you can capture an email from.

      Absolutely. Direct linking to affiliate product will ensure that the product owner's business will grow. If email isn't captured, the lead is lost.

      I use a squeeze page only to those offers that are converting well with simple landing page with a "get access" button in the first place. Then I replace the page with a squeeze page..

    most of the affiliates do for high gravity.......which is totally wrong.......we need to work on audience not the product.......as for as weight loss niche is concerned thats no more a money making product........very high competition...ill not recommend it for beginners or unless you are a brand....

    very high competition........find some low competition products ......where you can lift your product..........weight loss is over saturated

    first find the audience...not the product.......go other way round
