Clickbank Affiliate Program

How about that for irony, selling a clickbank product on a make money with clickbank blog :) Now you know I'm the real clickbank affiliate ;)

Clickbank Toolkit

No seriously this clickbank toolkit is the real thing, go check it out! And you know what, you don't even have to use my hop (see clickbank terminology) to buy the toolkit. As you should know by now when you have read the rest of this blog I make a percentage when I sell this product using this clickbank hop link. What you should do is become the clickbank affiliate yourself! When you buy anything from clickbank yourself, you should buy it using you own link. This will save you a lot of money!

Looking at the Clickbank toolkit, normally it is $47, but as a clickbank affiliate you get 55% of your sale for this product, so you only pay like $22 which is pretty cheap right! So go check it out, and if there are any other product you need yourself from clickbank, be sure to buy them using your own clickbank hop link.

Clickbank Terminology

Ok, so what do all the terms mean in a Clickbank add? An example:

1) Rocket Piano - Learn Piano Today! Conversion Rate Is High And Refund Rate Has Been Below 5% For 4years. Secret Bonus To Affiliates Is Our Commissioned $200 Product With Up-Sells. Join Our Affiliate Area And Msn Me Today For More Information, Email Through Your Tracking Codes!

view pitch page | create hoplink

So we got the terms: dollars per sale, percent per sale, percent referred and gravity. Let's look at these Clickbank terms one at the time.

1. Dollars per sale shows you how much you will make on each sale. In the perfect scenario you want products that pay the most commission. This counts especially when you try to sell the product using Adsense, since this will cost you money. But it is not always the most important factor.

2. Percent per sale is the percent of the sale that the affiliate wil get. 50% is the least commission you want for a sale. Some products pay as much as 75% or more. However competition is high on these products.

3. Percent referred is the percentage of all sales that come from affiliates. This is a very important figure and usually coincides with the next stat. Ideally, you don't want to compete with the products where 85 to 90% of the sales are coming from affiliates.

4. Gravity probably the most important figure. This figure tells you roughly how many affiliates are promoting this product. So if you are looking for products with little competions, grafity shouldn't be higher than 20!

So pretty much the products we are looking for:

Dollars per sale - $20 or more
Percent per sale - 50% or more
Percent referred - Less than 70%
Gravity - Under 20
