Putting a Product on Clickbank - Best Way

by Jet
4 replies
I had a product being sold in Clickbank some time ago but now that product
has become obsolete and no one is promoting the site anymore.

Now I have a new product on a new website and I was wandering if I should replace
the old product (in clickbank) with the new product and let that be it or if I should open a new clickbank account and set it up there.

Are any advantages for me if I set up a new account and do it that way as opposed to simply replacing my obsolete product?
Are there any marketing or other advantages to setting up a new account at CB for my new product?

    If you open a new account for it (which would cost you $29.95), you'd get a marketplace listing for it, and be allowed a different commission-rate for it from your existing product.

    You can add it to your existing account as an additional product without paying any fee at all, but multiple products in one account have to share one marketplace listing and one commission-rate. (If you're going to remove the original product from the marketplace anyway, that wouldn't matter to you, though, and there'd be no point in paying the $29.95?).

    Thanks for that. I'm just wandering if there would be any difference in terms of visibility and affiliates knowing about it.

      Some difference, in the sense that a product without a marketplace listing of its own will be noticed by fewer potential affiliates. You could resolve that potential problem either with a new account or by removing your original product and using that account's marketplace listing only for the new product.

      In any case, you have to promote your product pro-actively to potential affiliates, to find many (as you perhaps discovered with your initial product?). Unless you're a well-known and successful vendor with a good track-record, successful affiliates probably won't fall over themselves to promote it simply by happening to notice it in the marketplace. Not unless the sales page is very impressive/appealing/professional, anyway - and even then, perhaps not so many. Apologies if I sound disparaging by aiming to be realistic.

    When you list a new product on CB, doesn't it get listed at the very top for a limited amount of time, thereby giving more exposure?
