Today I'm going to be doing a review on the product, ClickBank University by ClickBank. Before we get started, I just want to throw it out there that I'm not trying to sell you ClickBank University, so you can put your money and credit cards away. The vast majority of products and programs online are bad fits for people. Some of them under-deliver on their promises and others are repackaged old products, but most of them are outright scams. If you can remember this, then you can save a lot of time, money, and aggravation. There is no way that I'm saying that ClickBank University is a scam or a bad fit for anyone, but you do need to know what you're getting into right upfront, so you can make an informed decision and don't end up throwing your money away at yet another product that leads you on a long dark road that stops at a dead end and leaves you broke. Make sure you read through this whole review because I'll be revealing to you what ClickBank University is really about.

ClickBank University is a new comprehensive online course designed to teach beginners how to make money online by creating, developing, and marketing new JV affiliate products to sell to people through ClickBank's marketplace. It comes complete with training on how to implement the basic theories behind product development and JV affiliate marketing. ClickBank is one of the top marketing sites for online product sales and they offer everything from dating courses to how to make money online, and business-in-a-box programs. Their reputation is outstanding and the new ClickBank University course is definitely a good program, but there are some things I want to bring to your attention.

ClickBank University isn't cheap to purchase and creating and developing a product is a lot of work and takes a lot of time. Despite what the people in the ClickBank University sales video tell you and want you to believe, it's going to cost you $97/month. Also, developing a product is not nearly as easy as copying what someone else has done before you, as what ClickBank University would have you believe, because there are definite copyright issues involved with doing that. You'll either have to write all of the product material yourself, which will take a good deal of time, or you'll have to outsource all of the writing and product development materials to a professional, in which case will cost a good deal of time and a good deal of money. If you're interested in purchasing ClickBank University, expect to be paying that $97 fee every month. They say you can cancel your membership at anytime, but I don't see anything about a refund if you're not satisfied. It looks like you'll be out whatever you put into ClickBank University regardless or not whether it works for you. Again, I'm not saying ClickBank University isn't any good, because it is. I just want to let you know that there are just as many business-in-a-box products that come out every single day. If you're looking to create, develop, and market a product online and want a good guideline to walk you through the process, ClickBank University might be a good fit for you, but be ready to fork up the dollars and spend a lot of time dedicating yourself to it.

I recently purchased a membership to ClickBank University to scope out what it's all about and I want to give you guys some insight just incase you were interested in purchasing it. ClickBank University is associated with ClickBank itself, which in case you don't know is a gigantic company that deals with selling products on a digital and physical level to people all around the world. ClickBank is a marketplace where vendors have products they want to sell and affiliates who sell their products for them for a commission. It is a legitimate organization and offers a lot of opportunity to make money. Unfortunately not everyone succeeds and there are a lot of low quality products for sale. Having said that, ClickBank University is also a legitimate organization. It is newbie friendly, but there is a lot of information to digest.

Once you join ClickBank University you are welcomed by Adam and Justin, who instruct you to go through the orientation section of the program. You're going to have to setup your profile and are encouraged to place a photo and little bio of yourself. You're also going to be able to see other member's profiles. In addition to being a training center for teaching you how to succeed, ClickBank University is a community as well, where you can meet and interact with other members who have the same goals as you.

The majority of the training in which you'll go through within the ClickBank University is video based. There are some videos that provide PDF guides to help you out, but for the most part, most of what you'll be learning is going to be through videos. The overall training ClickBank University is going to teach you is how to be both a successful vendor and affiliate with ClickBank itself.

The beginners section in the ClickBank University is an 8 week module, which will go through the process of setting up your own product, building a website based around it, how to package the product, price it, and put it on the ClickBank marketplace. For those of you who aren't interested in making your own product and putting it on ClickBank, you're going to want to head over to the Affiliate Marketing section of the ClickBank University. It's going to run you through how to promote products that are already in the ClickBank marketplace. There's a lot of information here that deals with email marketing, SEO, PPC, etc. Some of the tutorials are very in depth, but others aren't very descriptive. That's something I didn't particularly like. ClickBank University is very new, so I'm sure they'll continue to add upon and update their information. To be a member of ClickBank University, you're going to be required to pay a recurring monthly fee of $97, so it is a little pricey, but that's the price to pay if you want to master the ClickBank marketplace. If you're a complete newbie, then you'll benefit greatly from ClickBank University, but if you're already making decent money with ClickBank then I wouldn't be too concerned with being a member.
