Hi warriors,

I am considering to promote products which have low gravity values.So that competition will be lower and can be ranked in the first page quickly.

I found some products having 0 gravity and googled them to see at which level the competion is.

Mostly I found more than 11000 indexed pages in google for those products.

My question is;

Should i start with these products as a newbie?
As per my undertanding Gravity means "the number of sells that affiliates made within last 30 days"

If the gravity is 0 and have more than 11000 indexed page;Does this mean that these products convertion rates bad and stay away from these products ?

Thanks

    Sorry, but this isn't right at all.

    Gravity does not measure numbers of sales.

    However, a gravity of zero does indicate that no affiliate has referred a sale within the previous 8 weeks.

    This also doesn't necessarily follow at all (though there may be some truth in it, in individual cases - but it's actually much more complicated than that!).

    In my opinion, the odds are more in your favour, if you start with low-gravity products and avoid high-gravity ones, yes ... but this is only one small point among many important points, and it's by no means the most significant one - in fact, it's a pretty insignificant one, by comparison.

    No; it absolutely doesn't mean that at all.

    Here are two posts which I think you may find helpful reading ...

    This post explains "how gravity works", with some examples.

    And this post suggests a little 10-point checklist regarding selecting products to promote.

    I strongly advise you never to promote a ClickBank product without (a) contacting the vendor first (to check that's he's alive, and responsive!) and (b) one way or another, seeing the product yourself first, too (because you're attaching your reputation to it, by promoting it, and that's a very valuable asset to your business and not one you want to take any chances with).

    • I think I should stay away from 0 gravity products. Somehow,hard to sell these product.None of the sellers could sell the product within 8 weeks or maybe this is a new product?

      How can i count the number of affiliates?

  • Gravity means almost nothing in regard to total sales volume. You're actually often better off going after low gravity products.
  • Alexa had a great post, one thing I will add is that most products listed in clickbank never get properly promoted. No proper affiliate resource section, no JVs, no real form of traffic generation etc.

    And if people don't actively pursue affiliates then their gravity is sure to suffer.

    But some of these products will (and do!) have great salespages. With a little digging you can find some great ones.

    That said, I like to look at how long the product has been listed in the marketplace as well. If it's been there for several years with no improvement in gravity then it tells me the merchant doesn't really care about that product and it's likely they haven't put more effort into it because conversions weren't that strong.
  • I don't care what the Gravity is but the sales page needs to be great.

    • Even a great sales page has very little commensurate value in determining the quality of the underlying product. I often promote products with initial zero gravity and poor sales pages. Especially in non-IM niches, vendors frequently suck at ad copy. Marketing is a major consideration for having affiliates in the first place.
