ClickBank 2020

Hey!

So, I have a lot of useful information and energy for focusing on ClickBank affiliate marketing.
Just wondering if anyone is doing this right now and has any last minute tips before I take a deep dive?

I feel like this could go either way.. I've read posts from a lot of people here saying affiliate marketing is pointless and won't work in the long term.
I've read posts from a handful of people who are seemingly killing it and have been for a while.

I'm planning to follow Marcar's guide on this which includes a lot of information I already knew, he's done an awesome job of putting it in a nice order that's perfect for people with OCD ;P
Marcar says:
"It's not unrealistic to launch an MNS per day".
Seems doable with autoblogging and some of the tools available from the vendors on CB.

I've been here on BHW for a week now and have been encouraged to study programming, which I'm loving! But, whilst I keep focusing on building this knowledge (which is gonna take TIME), I'd like to have some kind of project running that I can keep building to get some extra income coming in and help fund future projects.
Creating a few Micro Niche Sites seems like a great idea, this post right now is just the last thing I'm doing to try and help myself to take action.

I suppose I'm hesitant because of failure in the past.. I've tried a few things online over the last 10 years and have never seen any success. I really am just trying to prove to myself that I can make just $1.
If I can make that I can make $100.. and eventually my target of $500 extra a month.
I don't think this is a big target and really should be achievable. If you have any advice that can help I'd love to hear it.

This isn't supposed to be my BIG business project, that is the reason I chose to study programming.
This is supposed to be a test of what I can do and if it's actually doable.

I feel like I have all the tools to do well.. but I just can't seem to choose a path. Is CB affiliate a wise one?

I do affiliate marketing, including clickbank products, amongst other things.

The key to success is you need to be constantly building a large opt in targeted database you can remarket to.

So i suggest you figure out how you are going to do that.

Great advice! Thanks
Thing is, what if you have multiple niches.. I guess, multiple lists.. multiple youtube channels..
A targeted database would surely come from a solid blog / online presence.

Each of my sites is for 1 niche only, so if i have 3 niches i build 3 sites and 3 optin lists.

For example people interested in fitness would be separated from people interested in dogs or making money online and only provided with offers appropriate to their niche.

Can I ask how many sites you run?
I wonder how often you update the pages?
Do you use an autoblogger tool?

I feel like I would just end up having everything run by bots.. Social media.. SEO.. FB ads.. Autoblogger.. Just check in once a day to keep things in order.

I do not auto blog or anything like that. I have a self funding sales funnel. So i pay for traffic and get opt in emails.

The user comes through to the landing page x% complete the offers and that funds the next traffic purchase and so it repeats.

I only update the landing page offers when needed, so no i dont really update the site.

I then remarket to all the signups by email, that backend is where the real money is as it costs almost $0 to send the emails.

With this process my list keeps getting bigger and so the more money i make.

Interesting! Thanks for all the info and your time.. I really appreciate it.
I have one last question if you'd be so kind!!?
What about PLR;
I've seen a couple of people that are re-selling PLR packages.. for example a " Weight Loss Diet" package that has everything you need as a reseller for $27.
It has all the emails for your sales funnel,
ebooks,
courses..

You could sell it to people who are looking to build their brand and need digital products.
Is that something you'd consider or is it just another step in the process that can inhibit your profit?

Obviously weight loss is a terrible choice, but if you could find something more Micro Niche.. would you ever consider it?

Another venture of mine is a publishing business, so yes i have sold a lot of books. But they were unique books not plr.

All i can say is try and take your own slant on it don't just copy others.

Which course did you learn this stuff from? I've always wanted to learn how to self pay for paid traffic. If you could point me to a few resources, that would be great

I did not learn it from a course, i learnt how to build them through trial and error. No 2 funnels are the same so that is how they are built.

You have to be prepared to invest. Most people don't build them because it requires upfront investment to pay for a steady stream of traffic as you optimise, which they wont fund.

What email transponder do you use?

I have considered several. Getresponse is good but in boxing is bad. Active campaign is great but does not like affiliate marketers.

I use a variety including getresponse and have no issues with them, maybe it is how you are getting your emails?

What do you mean they dont like your email content or they dont like your email list?

No. Just when I read reviews about inboxing and people getting accounts banned for affiliate marketting. I just dont know which to go with. I dont want problems down the road

It's in their policy that they dont support affiliate websites. You can not use their service to build Optin list from your affiliate website.
Just recently happened to me.

I dont directly link to offers in the email i have a sales funnel on my own site and i have no problem with that system.

This is a testing site that checks everything.

I am not affiliated in any way. They do extensive testing. They say getresponse is on a hotmail blacklist so most emails from getresponse dont even get to junk.

Email Optin on Landing Page >> After filing form User go to Thank You Page >> Thank you page redirected to Pretty Link redirection of Clickbank Sale Page.

I plan to do that as well. Send emails pointing to an article that has an affiliate link, and no emails with affiliate links in them
