How to become an affiliate with click bank?
My personal journey in Affiliate Marketing started with Clickbank.com. After signing up with the website, I just started roaming around the market place, for some weeks. It is always better to get used to the market place. It takes time to know the trends.
As a marketer, I learnt about several important aspects before choosing a product to promote.
There is term called "GRAVITY" for every single product listed in the market place. It is a very important aspect while choosing a click bank product to promote.
The gravity is a unique calculation that measures the number of sale made by the affiliates for a specific product in last 8 weeks. Needless to say, a greater gravity always indicates great sale in recent past for a product. Apart from Gravity, there are some other factors to be considered before you decide a product to promote. They are listed below:
Initial$/sale
Avg%/sale
Avg Rebill Total( for recurring subscription products)
Avg%/rebill( for recurring subscription products)
So, it is very important to get a solid concept on all these aspects and a closer attention to the statistics is must to be a successful affiliate.
What about payment?
Once you become an active affiliate and made sales on the products, you are supposed to get payment on every two weeks.
Clickbank, it self is a payment processor, so getting payment from them is always hassle free. In India, we get cheques from them and they are easily accepted in all banks in India.
Do you want to become a Vendor?
May be you are a product creator and you want to promote your digital products in a massive way. Clickbank can be the ideal way to promote it. You need to pay a fee of$49.95( Around Rs.5000) to get your product listed on clickbank market place. It is an expensive amount for the beginner, but if your product is of high quality, you will sure to get back the amount invested(ROI) with in first two months. So, try to focus on making quality products.
