I'm in the same boat, but in my experience, you won't get a lot of information on the topic. It seems to come down to some kind of "Killer instinct" that's developed over time. I've bought just about every clickbank course out there and it seems to come down to a few things:
Keywords - go after "Buying" keywords - I don't have much advise there, I'm still learning.
On Page SEO - Basic skills apply here
Off Page SEO - Meet Xrumer, Scrapebox, SEnuke, you know the game plan if you are on BHW...... I hope.
Product Selection - Is there demand for it? What answer does it solve? Is there sales page any good? All things I'm learning as well.
Lastly - write a good pre-selling or soft selling sales copy - I'm looking to outsource this because I suck.
Basically what I'm telling you is that there is no easy route on this one. I've bought THOUSANDS of dollars in
"How to be an awesome super big dick swingin' clickbank affiliate"
Manuals, video's, programs, and memberships and they all say the same thing which I don't understand too clearly. Basically it's what I just told you above. There I summed up thousands of dollars of information in 2 paragraphs.
I've just decided to endlessly try new things one at a time until I find something that works. I'm also "Copy-cat'ing" a lot of successful ezine articles to see if I can "Learn" from someone else's "Killer Instinct." I suggest you do the same.
