Easier Than Ebay! http://affiliatefortunes.com/2009/10/14/clickbank-easy-money-easier-than-ebay/ http://affiliatefortunes.com/2009/10/14/clickbank-easy-money-easier-than-ebay/#comments Wed, 14 Oct 2009 14:57:15 +0000 Rob http://affiliatefortunes.com/2009/10/14/clickbank-easy-money-easier-than-ebay/ Clickbank: easy money? Yes I think so. I’ve done the usual things; eBay, Pay Per Click, Adsense etc. Until recently I sold ebooks on eBay for years but when eBay banned digital downloads I had to rethink my marketing methods.

Ebay banned the sale of ebooks in the form of digital downloads but allowed ebooks in to be advertised and sold as CDs or converted to paper products and sold as hard copy manuals.

I tried this and the results weren’t brilliant. Ebook buyers had liked being able to download their purchases immediately and not have to wait for days for the mail man to arrive. They also enjoyed the low prices, now they have to pay more to cover the cost of materials, packaging and shipping – not very buyer friendly and as such sales have suffered greatly.

I could go on and on about the rights and wrongs of eBay’s digital downloads ban but in fact it did me a favour. As well as selling on eBay I have always sold Clickbank products mainly form my newsletter and ezine ads, in fact have made more money from Clickbank than eBay and for very little capital outlay.

I always took the eBay route as the easy option but their policy changes caused me to rethink my strategies. Here’s why I think Clickbank is easy money – don’t stop reading when you see the next statement – Article Writing Makes Me Money and it can do the same for YOU!

I knew that articles were a good way of getting exposure online and getting visitors to your website or blog and then making sales but I couldn’t really be bothered and thought, ‘I can’t write articles’. I also thought that it was a long term strategy and I want money now. I was wrong on all counts.

Articles are easy to write if you follow some simple rules, articles don’t need to be massive, 500 words will do. I give a few tips to easy article writing in PART TWO on my website. If you are interested, you will find the link at the end of this article.

Articles are NOT a long term project, things can happen pretty fast. If you visit my web page mentioned above (link below), you will see a screenshot of one of my articles at POSITIONS: #1 and #2 on PAGE ONE of Google with over 15 MILLION competitors. This took only a couple of days to happen and works at bringing visitors to my website at NO COST AT ALL! How good is that?

Get sales at no cost – money for nothing, it doesn’t get much better and unlike selling on eBay, NO listing fees, NO final value fees, NO PayPal fees, NO CD burning, NO packaging, NO trips to the Post Office and NO constantly answering potentail buyers emails.

So, have a go it’s easier than you might think – if I can do it, anyone can! You can find more FREE info about this subject in PART TWO of this report at: http://www.smarterwork.info/

It’s an excellent resource for all online marketers and some are making thousands of dollars DAILY just by promoting other people’s stuff. Wouldn’t it be great if you could use eBay to achieve results like these?

How to promote Clickbank products using eBay – Method #1

Use the eBay about me page – This is a free web page that every eBay user has. Most people write a little bit about themselves, include some of their eBay listings and their feedback, but we’re going to do something different. Instead of the above, we’re going to include a little about ourselves, links to our eBay auctions AND a link to a Clickbank product which compliments the items we are selling in our eBay listings

How to promote Clickbank products using eBay – Method #2

Leverage the potential of your auction buyers – Your auction buyers are the perfect people to market to. They have already bought from you and if the transaction was pleasant, then they are likely to trust you and be more likely to buy what you recommend.

After they have purchased a product from you, email them to let them know their product will be shipped shortly and that in the meantime they might like to check out this eBook all about… (here you include a short description of the product you are recommending and then your affiliate link)

How to promote Clickbank products using eBay – Method #3

Distributing viral reports – This is my favourite method of promoting Clickbank and I try to distribute as many eBooks as possible in as short a time as possible. eBay is excellent for this method because of the number of sellers looking for new products to sell. All you need to do is choose a Clickbank product to promote, write a short report on a similar subject and sell it on eBay for cheap.

For example, you choose a product all about weight loss. You could write a short 8-12 page report about healthy eating, add your affiliate links and sell on eBay for $1. Your buyers will then resell it and their buyers and eventually thousands of people will have read your eBooks and tens of people bought through your affiliate link.

There are three excellent ways to promote Clickbank products using eBay but they will only make you money if you put them into ACTION.

Anyone can join and plant the seeds for a good wage growth. You can start on a shoe string budget and benefit from working at home enjoying the flexibility and freedom of working for yourself. You can start part time and promote yourself to full time when ever you are ready.But who told you becoming a Clickbank super affiliate was easy?
Clickbank is an ideal first place to start. This is one of the largest and best known affiliate marketing program in the industry. Visit their site, http://www.clickbank.com to get your own free Clickbank ID. Click on “Earn Commissions” on their homepage and look at the range of eBooks and software you could sell. These products are ranked according to their popularity, sales, refund rates etc. so you can sort them by their sales record and see which are the better ones to choose.What Clickbank Does
Clickbank is only one of many affiliate networks that manage the interaction between web merchants and their associated affiliates. It is responsible for providing the technology to deliver the merchant’s offers and advertising material. The affiliate network also provides the service of collecting commission fees from the merchant and paying them to the affiliates promoting the program.
If you’re interested in being a Clickbank affiliate, you won’t find it hard to join. If you don’t have a Clickbank account, you need to complete the Clickbank affiliate form and create your own account, you can login after this to check how you are doing. After selecting a particular product to promote, you can get your marketing tools and can now put together your affiliate link. Once you have a Clickbank user name id, you are free to choose whatever marketing tools you want to use to bring in clicks and generate sales.What You Will Need to Do
But being a Clickbank super affiliate is not as easy as just placing a link on a page on a site. You need to hone your ability to promote affiliate products. You also need to learn expertise in search engine optimization, reciprocal linkage, email marketing, article marketing, social media and many other methods of promoting your merchant’s goods and services.
So many people fail in this kind of business. Mainly because they are new to it and haven’t the knowledge needed to make it work for them. Among the secrets to becoming successful in affiliate marketing is to come up with a good content based website and put your affiliate links in all your content. This is easily done with a blog. Your main purpose here is to give your visitors good quality content about the things they are interested in.You Will Do Better With Your Own Site
For these information articles, set aside the job of selling. This must be done via the sales letter page you are transferring them to. Your articles should be rich in information and easy to read with no overt promotion to annoy people. Its better for you to create your own sales page and then link straight to the affiliates pay page. This way you don’t risk losing the sale because the merchants page put them off.
You should promote multiple affiliate programs on your website but don’t promote everything the world has to offer. Learn about niche marketing and target a small market with the affiliate programs that fit your site and focus on them. Then, it is advisable to collect email addresses and automate the whole process, giving you more time for other ventures. Yep, you’ve read it right! Auto responders are a major key factor to become a super affiliate.You Will Need To Keep Learning
You will have to spend time in reading, experimenting and keeping on top of the changes in the affiliate marketing business. When you are more knowledgeable about online marketing, you’ll understand how important this is. What worked well a few months ago may not continue to work well for you, so keep on top of trends. If you are a web site owner and you want to add affiliate sales to your business, find out where to get good new affiliate programs.
It can be really hard to be a Clickbank Super Affiliate, but don’t give up the dream. Bear in mind that in affiliate marketing business, you need to develop persistence, patience and knowledge. These traits will enable you to carry on no matter how tough the job becomes. Learn how to check your statistics. This will help you find out what is working and what is not. Make necessary changes if needed but do it one at a time and have patience.You Will Need to Get Traffic
Getting traffic is important. Seriously consider setting up low cost auctions for related products on eBay and funneling the buyers through to your site. People are on eBay to buy, so you will be getting targeted “ready to spend” visitors to your site. Far more effective than traffic exchanges, this strategy done correctly can reap you many sales for higher price products, as people curiously look around.
Don’t forget that in affiliate marketing, nothing will take place overnight. And it will not happen without blood, sweat and a hefty time commitment. Again, just steady yourself with patience, persistence and knowledge; then act on the above mentioned tactics. Before you know it, you will be harvesting a good crop of commission checks. And believe me, the fruits of all your efforts will be way too sweet.

The new eBay Partner Network (previously eBay affiliate program through Commission Junction) is one of the most generous affiliate systems/networks on the web. Offering 50%+ of eBay revenue for successful bids/purchases and $25+ per new member sign up, very clear and timely reporting and great product listings, its clear to see why it has already been very popular.

However, until now it was quite complex to create good quality links (relevant, context-sensitive, timely eBay listings) with high conversion rates. This was because to do this effectively you needed good programming skills and had to use the eBay API.

Now, eBars take all the programming skills out of the equation leaving you to sit back and make lots of money from your website! All you need is a little html knowledge to install an eBar on your site, and once it is installed, it automatically updates the listings it displays every time a visitor hits your web page (a bit like Google Adsense, it “sniffs” your web page to find out which listings your visitor is most likely to be interested in and displays them – also ensuring they are timely – ie. the listing is not going to expire within minutes of being displayed, and fetching the most up to date price for the listing as applicable). eBars also use screen real estate effectively, showing more ads in the same amount of space as Google Adsense, thanks to discreet scrolling. This scrollilng also makes the visitor more likely to notice the listings and get drawn into watching the eBar to see what the next listing will be – eBars become quite addictive for your visitor!

The best thing about eBars is that you don’t have to join yet another affiliate program! eBay pays you directly for commission earned via eBars through its eBay Partner Network!

You can see what listings an eBar would generate for your website in SECONDS – just go to http://www.ebarster.com and type in the URL of your website/page.
