Clickbank Cash Supreme

Copyright (c) 2008 Bill Broich

It’s no secret I’m a huge fan of Clickbank. I reckon Clickbank is the single greatest way to make money online. But marketing Clickbank can be a daunting task, so the goal of my articles is to provide advice to help you with your efforts.

First, no matter what, you need the skill to find quality Clickbank products. Without proven sellers there is no sense dumping money or effort into marketing. You can use the Clickbank Marketplace to find products, but better than that I recommend a third-party search analysis tool. A third-party tool will give you access to sale’s description, gravity, refund rates and help you better track product sales week by week.

Okay, so for this article, let’s say you’ve found a product, it converts, you’re doing all the standard forms of internet marketing, cost-per-click, impression advertising, eBook marketing, newsletter marketing, forum posting, video marketing, etc. etc.

But you need to find another revenue stream.

How about OFFLINE advertising? No doubt some of you don’t even know what that means any longer. I know offline doesn’t register much weight with me, but with the rise of online advertising, offline is getting cheaper and cheaper. Why not build a stand-alone website for the product you’re promoting and buy newspaper classified advertising.. .? Newspapers are getting killed by sites like Ebay and Craig’s List. They’re practically charitable away classified advertising. If that facility, why not try a radio advertising campaign? Did you know you can buy radio, newspaper and television advertising through Google? Maybe you just experiment with your local market and see how it goes before you a expand to a regional or national campaign. No matter what, make sure your marketing sizzles… and if you need help making your media, not to worry. A simple Google search will provide you with a plethora of low-cost services that will help you make your radio, TV or print ad.

In no way do I reckon the new marketer should try this. This is for the expert only who has a budget to work with. If you’re just getting started, work your way up to experimenting with offline advertising. But you rarely see Clickbank marketers going offline and that’s not because it doesn’t work, it’s because they have an online-only mindset, but I can guarantee there is major potential in this medium if you explore it.

There are many online money making schemes that you may have heard of. There are article marketing, data entry jobs, viral marketing, Forex automatic traders and the list simply goes on and on. If even half of what these e-books and programs say is to be believed then there should be more millionaires in the world than we can count. Sorry to say, we never see any of these so-called ‘millionaires’ that these programs make and even the owners of these programs really appearing in Forbes. So, why should you believe another scheme that claims to help you get rich while all you need is a computer with Internet connection and a ridiculously small capital. Yes, I am talking about Google Cash, which demands that you can make money using ClickBank and Google AdWords by using their methods. Let us then become Google Cash detectives and find out the certainty behind the hype that apparently surrounds this program. Well, the first difference that you will notice about Google Cash is that, unlike most other get-rich-instant websites, it defines in clear terms how exactly you are going to earn money using it. This gives you step-by-step instructions to make Google AdWords advertising campaign in a way that you receive lots of clicks, which in turn will help you earn commissions through ClickBank. First, you need to sign up both with AdWords and ClickBank. Then you need to find products on ClickBank of which you will become affiliate marketer. Now your job is to direct traffic to your affiliate product sites. The bottom line is that you need visitors who are really voluntarily looking for these products. For model, if you are promoting ‘Puma’ athletic shoes then visitors to your site, who are looking for information on puma, the animal, are irrelevant. Your AdWords campaign will send quality leads to your site where you are promoting your products. It is extremely vital to make your AdWords campaign work. Google Cash will provide uncommon methods to tweak your advertising campaigns in a way that you will get the maximum number of clicks spending the minimum amount of money. As you can see the profit equation will be like this: Commissions earned via ClickBank – Total cost of AdWords ads = Your profit margin Consequently, the less you spend on AdWords and the more commission you earn from ClickBank, the higher will be your profit margin. Using AdWords is not as simple as Google makes it sound. People spend thousands of dollars to have their ads appear in high positions. Experience truly matters here, which you may not possess. AdWords has many helpful features to help advertisers but 90% of the time you will not learn it until it is too late. There have been numerous instances of an advertiser’s paying a hefty advertising charges for a long time before realizing that somewhere he/she added an extra ‘0′.

Yes it’s right, you can now earn ClickBank commissions virally!

Before I fully reveal how, I want to just say that one of the largest issues I’ve heard internet marketers complain about with ClickBank is that they limit you to a 1-tier affiliate program. Why do they limit you? Well, I don’t know for sure, but there’s many possible reasons, the number one wits would probably be because it’s simpler for them. Less hassle, less work, and they already have a huge affiliate base.

2-tier affiliate programs are primarily a way to grow yourself a huge affiliate base by adding the viral incentive to refer other affiliates to the program. Since ClickBank has been in the affiliate business for a long time and has a excellent reputation, it’s now hard to come by an affiliate marketer who hasn’t heard of them, so they probably don’t feel they need a second tier.

Anyways, lets get onto this new revolutionary service that allows you to earn ClickBank commissions virally and even gives more leverage than a 2-tier affiliate program. It uses a method known as Contextual Advertising, and it’s so simple to use for monetizing your site, that it puts google ads to shame!

Top Adsense marketers like Joel Comm have preached about the potential of simple text ads used throughout your website copy. These types of ads are just simple links that your eyes follow over naturally as you read the content of the page. Because it’s right there in the body of the content, it has the readers attention, and thus their curiosity kicks in, and they click it. In the case of Adsense text ads, a click will merely get you on average a few cents. Not too fantastic, but a lot of clicks WILL ad up.

I’m not here to tell you about google Adsense though, I’m talking about ClickBank. So here’s why this new Contextual Ad service puts google Adsense to shame. You can sign-up to this service for free, and then all you have to do is simply paste some code onto your pages. What happens next is that a javascript program scans your page for all the words that are contextually together to uncommon target products. It then converts those words into textlinks that link to ClickBank products. GENIUS!

Okay now, listen closely, here’s where the viral marketing aspect comes into play. As someone is surfing your page they might click on one of these unsuspecting links and be aimed at to a ClickBank product, and if they buy, you get the affiliate commission. Now if you refer others to this service, they will add it to their websites and when someone clicks on a link, their affiliate ID gets tracked to the product, but when the next person clicks on a link, YOUR affiliate ID gets tracked. Now if that person refers someone to the service who uses the code, then YOUR ID gets tracked to the 3rd click. Get the thought?

This is a 5 level logic, which means you could get paid exponentially by referring more people who refer more people, and then you’re getting commissions from websites all over the internet in various niche markets.

The one disadvantage is that on your own website, you still only get YOUR affiliate ID tracked to every 5th click (Because the other 4 clicks go to your upline).

The key advantage here is in subaffiliate leverage. Multiplication is the thing of success with this viral marketing affiliate ad service. As you tell people, who each tell people, who each tell people, who each tell people, then it ends up being a lot of people in your downline really quickly.

This service only just launched on Tuesday September 19th, 2006. Not too many people know about it yet, but I’ll bet the word is going to spread quick, and if you’re the one spreading it, you’ll be in a excellent position to profit exponentially.

Affiliate marketing is without a doubt a proven way to make money online. But the sad actuality is that only a tiny percentage of affiliate marketers ever find real success or become super affiliates. Most people that get into affiliate marketing try advertising one or two affiliate products and when they find their campaigns are not profitable they give up and believe that affiliate marketing is not legitimate.

It may be best to use both strategies.

One of the keys with pay per click advertising is the nature of the traffic you are sending to your affiliate pages. It is critical that you send highly targeted traffic otherwise your conversion rates will not be excellent enough to cover your advertising expenses. With Clickbank products it should be okay to bid on the product name as they are usually not copyrighted and the product creators do not mind since they know you are sending them traffic and sales.

The advantage of bidding on the product name is that the traffic is already pre sold on the product thus conversion rates will be on average much better. It is also very vital to pick proven products that are of excellent quality. Make sure the gravity of the products you choose are at least over 10. Also take a look at the sales page to make sure that it is convincing and has the elements of a high converting sales pitch.

It is also a excellent thought to make break landing pages for each affiliate product. You can make a review page style landing page that highlights the benefits of the product you are promoting. Also many pay per click providers only want unique landing pages so this is another wits to make a break landing page. Also do not be worried to bid high on product name based keywords and variations. Expect to pay at least 50 cents a click since most of the time there will be fantastic competition for these terms but the returns can make it worth the cost.

It is vital to keep a close eye on new products that come out on Clickbank as many of them can become well loved quick so if you can get your ad up quickly then you can often pull towards you clicks for a very low cost.
