How Much You Earn With Clickbank ?

[OTrap]

Do you continue to build your list though? And do you send the same offer over the course of a week to your whole list? Or do you send an offer A to part 1 of your list, then offer B to part 2 of your list?

I continue to build my list. I send the same offer to the whole list, but not necessarily all week. My list is honestly not that big. It's just potent.

Quality over quantity.

Knowledge is power. Thanks OTrap for the info

Anytime. Glad to help.

So do you start building backlinks once you setup the site or do you wait for a while? Also do you drip feed or just blast to all article directories in one go?

I ask this since I used a similar strategy in the past, but most of my sites got sandboxed at some point (at least the ones that ranked well...)

No drip feed.

AMR is pretty "weak" actually. Still, investing in this tool has given me such a high ROI and is a backlinking time saver. For the money spent, there's nothing that can compare I guess.

You won't get a lotta live links anyway (less than 100). Do the math and you'll see. Of course most people are blinded by the marketing of submitting to over thousands of article directories.

I blast them all at once. Right away. No waiting.

No, I've never been sandboxed for using AMR before. It's weird that you get sandboxed. Why's that? I even don't bother spinning articles manually. I just take a related ezinearticles article and use Spinnerchief to autospin and submit. Minimal time investment. Not complicated at all.

SPEAKING OF SANDBOX

In fact, out of 100+ websites I own, I only got 1 website sandboxed. And this is a site full of LSI (all articles are 700+ words) pages. There are about 80+ pages here and it got sandboxed.

Why?

Cause I had ordered a Press Release backlinking campaign for $40 in the Warrior Forum. Of course, traffic climbed 2-3x in the next week. But then BOOM! I got sandboxed. It's still in the sandbox now. The site was earning about $10-20 from AdSense a day! Well, I guess 1 big reason it's STILL in the sandbox is because a lotta of my backlinks (Buzzle and some article directories) got deleted. Yeah, Buzzle and a few other bastards deleted my whitehat, carefully written articles. Fuck!

This is one reason why I'm big on outsourcing backlinks (and private blog network; AMA, AR, LV, SLV, BMR, etc.) and using automation tools NOW.

I'll NEVER build links manually like a white hat saint ever again.

Gotta look at this thing like a business, not a hobby. Lesson learned first hand and the hard way.

OTrap,

Could you give some pointers of how to choose a good solo ad/ad swap? Legit ones. Like the really real good tips. I'm sick of studying WSOs on this subject.

Another question, why don't you use 2nd tier PPC engines (or international traffic on AdWords or MSN AdCenter) and bid 1-2 cents per click to build up your list?

 

[goodbuyer]

I email segments of my list once a day (not the whole list), but everyone gets more than one touch a week.

These are all genuine opt-ins, though, and they were opted in with clear and full disclosure on what to expect, so my complaints are only about 0.02% at most ... one fifth of my autoresponder's limit.

Overall, I'm doing $3000-5000 in sales per week, with $2000-3500 paid out on that after refunds (34% refund rate over the past 6 months).

Are your list single or verified opt-ins? What niches do you recomend, I am at the sports niche but want to start at the MM niche. Thanks

Finding them is naturally the hard part. I've met them at conferences and through personal contacts. They're either friends, or they're friends of friends.

As to the AdWords question, I've never given it much thought. Perhaps.

Mine are a mixture of single- and double-optins.

There you have it. Thanks bud. It's just hard to trust the quality of solo ad mailings. At least when you invest in SEO, you know the backlinks did help the rankings (by some percentage).

But with solo ads/ad swaps, it's like finding 1 good trusted person.

This is why you start small. If you're ordering from a new person, you start out only buying maybe 250 clicks or something small like that. If the traffic appears to be quality, maybe you make a few sales, then you know it's a good solo ad seller, and you can up the purchase to more clicks at a time.

And I wondered why a basic business common sense like this is not preached in the WarriorForum! That's 1 great tip bro.

ok so i have been lurking on this forum for a while but this is my first actual post. im just starting to look into the affiliate side of IM. up until now i was mostly trying to learn about offline consulting. anyway so from what ive gathered so far this seems like it would be a good way to make money with clickbank:

1. find a clickbank product that pertains to a certain niche
2. make a website for that niche and link to the particular product
3. do SEO and get the page ranked well

is that pretty much the gist of this? would that be a good way for me to try and make money with clickbank or am i missing something? any help would be very appreciated.

edit: actually im not sure if that question kind of hijacks the thread so im gonna make it a new thread. sorry

Yes, you are right. That's basically it.

BUT, when it comes to SEO, you have to think about the keywords. Cause these keywords will get you ranked which will bring you traffic and then sales.

Ranking the keywords with SEO is another challenge itself.

In a weird way, buying clicks is like buying drugs. If the seller is legit, they won't mind offering you a sample purchase before you start buying in larger quantities.

Nice job everyone! Keep up the earnings!

I have been up and down with Clickbank.

When they still allowed P2P products, I was making at least $20,000 per month.

I was a vendor for the past 2 years which made a very stable income, then sold the product for mid XX,XXX. Gues that counts as clickbank income as well?

Lately I have been making a few grand as affiliate, but I will be back rocking it to high levels!

As OTrap already made clear, building lists is definitely where the most money is.

AKA creating your own recurring income.

Here is a golden tip from Waddup:

1: Target complete noobs that are interested in making money

2: Get as many leads as you can (spam, whatever)

3: Warm your leads up with free guides. (keep it stupid simple, and don't explain how clickbank works)

4: Blast out one of those survey products (I recommend sending 2/3 swipes about the same product) include success stories.

After that you can basically swipe them through all levels of internet marketing products. (starting from noob level)

That's at least a year of income from the same leads right there.

1. find a clickbank product that pertains to a certain niche
2. make a website for that niche and link to the particular product
3. do SEO and get the page ranked well

Just a little tweaking required.

1. find a clickbank product that pertains to a certain niche
2. do SEO and find keyphrases...then
3. make a website for that niche and link to the particular product

doing your seo before you build your site, will mean you can build the site around your keyphrases. It's imperative it is done in that order.

Most website builders just build the site then ask "oh yeah what keywords do you want" just before it goes online, which is so wrong.

lol anyone knows why bikerboy is banned?

Im brand new to clickbank, but I see a lot of potential in my future. I only really promoted 2 products for 1 day on CL and made around 260$ was aroudn 200$ after refunds. The method I thought was going to be perfect, until I got ghosted... The 260$ was from sales over about 3 days time from when I posted, however the ads I posted after that first day were all ghosted... I will be posting more soon when i figure a few things out, as I have just recieved my first check from clickbank yesterday. It's all real now... fuq the haters

big thangs poppin little things stoppin bro

I think you might have the right idea, but you may be a little confused about the terms you're using.

SEO is Search Engine Optimization. It's what you do after you've selected your niche and product. SEO is about using the right keywords and structure in your content and your webpage design, and then also about the content and backlink anchors you use when promoting your site or page. So there's really no way to do SEO at the step you have it placed in your plan.

I think your point is that he needs to include niche and keyword research into his plan, which is absolutely correct. To do that he just needs to expand his step 1 to include keyword research and add the use of those keywords to his step 2 and 3.

1. a- find a clickbank product that pertains to a certain niche
   b- do keyword research to find the best search phrases to target (optimize for).
2. make a website or page (optimized for the selected keywords) and link to the particular product
3. do SEO and get the site or page ranked well (for the selected keywords).

If you don't have a particular niche in mind at the start then you can reverse the order of 1a and 1b,

1. a- do niche and keyword research to find a good niche and search phrases to target (optimize for).
   b- find a clickbank product in the selected niche that will fit well for the keywords selected.
2. make a website (optimized for the selected keywords) and link to the particular product
3. do SEO and get the page ranked well (for the selected keywords).
