I made a decision last year that I will be only promoting products and services via affiliate programs that truly help people. It's not very hard to find such programs from CJ, but it is almost impossible to find them from Clickbank. I like the idea of ebooks that provide valuable information and are easily downloadable right after payment, but can you recommend any such products that are not overselling and are truly providing value to customers at Clickbank? Suggestions from any niche are welcome. Or is there maybe a good alternative to Clickbank that checks the quality of the products listed in their system?
The only products which provided value for me were Instant Article Wizard and Affiliate Elite. I have been using them for a long time, however, these products are not ebooks.
I would venture to say the top 20 or so products in the health.remedies category would fit that bill. I know that my product is in that group and it helps people. I am sure there are a couple of duds in that group but would be a good place to look.
Actually there are quite a lot of good products on Clickbank, which truly help people, but the sales letters are almost always hyped up.....Well, that's how it is. Just to mention few examples: Earth4Energy (energy efficiency), Truth About Abs (health), Commission Blueprint(Internet marketing), and the list goes on and on.
True, when the prospect see the SL:' omg, not again !' Also, most of the SL content is very hyperbole.
In my opinion, I think most of the how to books on clickbank do help people because I have bought some of them myself and I was happy with the knowledge I got from them. I usually don't promote anything forex related or work at home related or free download related on clickbank because I think most of them don't work or have questionable content (for the unlimited downloads one)
I have a new product that will be on clickbank shortly that really is more to help people than anything. Sales letter is really not hyped up at all, and affiliate commissions look like they will be $30+ per sale, can't beat that. Also, I really do like No nonsense muscle building, I promoted it for a while made some good cash then ended up buying it and the price you pay is totally worth it.
I'd agree. Vince Delmonte is an awesome guy and truly does go way over board when it comes to delivering on his product (No Nonsense Muscle Building). The downside though is that his direct-market is pretty small 5k-10k traffic a month, and sales letter doesn't convert that phenomenal. All that aside though, there are tons of ways you can make good money with his product and feel confident that you're helping folks out
Hi, I say trust your instincts. It's not that hard to spot the products that are a bit iffy. If it looks like a scam, and sounds like a scam, it probably is a scam If you're not sure about it yourself, then don't promote it. Nobody else's ethical standards are going to be exactly the same as yours... Cheers Zander
I am a Clickbank merchant. I link to my Clickbank product in my signature. It is in the sound therapy niche which relates to listening to mp3's with special frequencies that help people relax among many other benefits. You can go to the affiliate section for more info.
I would appreciate if someone could provide a list of products that would really do well in Clickbank as well as CJ. I have been trying to promote products but so far have not succeeded.
I recommend staying far away from promoting MMO CB products. Everyone who would buy these types of products just buys from their own CB ID anyway to get the massive discount. --- To answer your question: I'm not sure. I think you really have to try a product and see if it's true quality. Many publishers may let you check out their products for free if you let them know you're interested in marketing it. I think there are very few CB products that are of any real value so it may be a bit of a "needle in the haystack" sort of thing. As others have recommended, I'd probably look in the health categories. --- I just thought of one: I did buy the "Lifetime Strength" EBook and it has good info it that has been quite helpful. It's probably not a good one to promote though... not much of a payout if I remember correctly. I'm not even sure it's still in CB as that was a couple of years ago that I bought it.
