1) If you are just getting started as an affiliate marketer, you will see better results if you start out promoting products that aren’t as popular first. The reason for this is that everyone starts out trying to promote the most popular product. If there are 1000 affiliate promoting a popular product even at 500 sales a day, it may be hard for newer people to make sales. Clickbank uses the gravity system to rank products, so I would suggest starting out with products with a gravity below 60.
2) Promote products that you don’t mind writing a lot of content for. A lot of people will promote a product only because they feel they will make the most money with them. This may be a mistake if you don’t like writing about the topic. For example, stock trading is a huge market on Clickbank, but I have no interest in it so I wouldn’t write about it. There are thousands of products in the marketplace so try to write about products that you have some interest in.
3) You never want to promote a product first before promoting yourself. What I mean by this is that you want to first build your own subscriber list first before you expose a visitor to the content that sells the product that you are affiliated with. The reasoning behind this is that most people don’t buy a product on their first visit, so building an email list will allow you to further sell them on the benefits of having the product that you are promoting.
There are a few other tips that can benefit you as well so make sure you continue to educate yourself and implement all the tips that you have learned.




How will I be able to “leach” other affiliates for the sole goal of profiting from their product(s)?
I am just wondering, because I am having a frustrating time trying to set up many of my promotions on the clickbank website. I don’t have a website of my own, don’t have a blog, and really need a quick solution that doesn’t involve me building my own website or blog.
Please reply back to me A.S.A.P.!

There are quick solutions, but they don’t last that long. If you want something that is sustainable, you NEED a website and an autoresponder to build your email list.
