How Much You Make From Your Clickbank Sites?

Google has certain limitations yes, and depending on full whitehat is risky as it can cost a lot of money with no return.

I use my own private network to rank sites and although there are ways to do it pretty much under the radar it's not 100% risk free either, there can always be competitors out there who take that extra step in an attempt to take you down.

Paid traffic is nice, it makes money or not, although with sales funnels it's also a bit risky as it takes a certain amount of time before you went through the series of emails that you send them so it's important to run individual well tracked samples or you could easily lose a small fortune.

Tracking ain't among my best skills so I will really have to work on my self control to pull something like this off.

Paid traffic is what all the big guys do though, they don't have the time to wait for rankings and you can't scale hugely when you're too dependant on external factors.

It's not like that at all Oniram.

When ranking in Google you have to obey to their rules, and there are quite a few rules I can tell you, especially post Panda.

Once you figured Google out it's a pretty reliable source of traffic, however there can always be a new update that throws water in the fire, so then it's back to the drawing table.

I've been in these situations numerous times but always figured out a way around it.

And no it's not so that you only have to stick to whitehat to pull it off, but website quality, actually site structure is immens important, so is over monetizing and size of the site.

Sites that consists of a few pages, and thus thin in setup, perform real poor these days, no links that will over come such shortage. Besides that what I observe a lot is that sites are often setup that results in pages created by the CMS, pages that increase the thin factor of the site and that most people are not aware of, sometimes even resulting in a ton of duplicate content which is even worse.

Google is not an easy game to play!

I would recommend you check out the site in the bottom link of my signature, at the top header of the site you find a link to an Amazon guide, the guide explains exactly how to build sites that Google loves/favors, and avoids all the pitfalls, although it says Amazon guide the concept can be applied to any type of site whether it promotes a click bank product, Adsense, CJ or whatever you can think of.

For real businesses like a local plumber it's perhaps a bit over the top, as those are treated differently by Google although the basics remain the same, build solid sites, focus on links that work instead of launching up the next spam software and keep an eye on your anchor ratio's.

All is explained in the eGuide and it's free, all you need to do is share it at Facebook or Twitter or Google+ as I installed a content locker in an attempt to do pure whitehat lol, and just to see how that would work out in terms of extracting natural links. Funny enough I received 1 Pinterest share from an image that's not even mine (and a couple of facebook shares / tweets etc but those have no effect on search engine rankings).

Hope this post contributes some sort of value as to why so many people struggle with Google.
