CALLING ALL VENDORS & AFFILIATES: New CB Tools: NicheJunky 1.0 Pre-Release: FREE

Discussion in 'ClickBank' started by NCMedia, Jul 22, 2009.

    Vendors: Wouldn’t it be great if you had a central location to upload your creatives to, where you KNOW super affiliates are always lurking? How many resources would you upload for them?

    Affiliates:
    How would you like to know ahead of time when new products are launching, and have access to all product data, updates, affiliate resource materials and other assets the moment they are uploaded?

    Mikey1090 & I have been quite anxious to release this to you guys. We feel it’s finally time that the bridge/gap between vendor and affiliate is minimized and transparent, so, we realllly did something about it. Ready?

    Vendors: You can now CLAIM your product & attract even MORE affiliates on your own Niche Junky affiliate resource page. Add ALL your affiliate materials right to our site. This means that when affiliates are browsing through products, and they come to yours, they will see a VIP PUBLISHER ALERT button that takes them to your resource page.

    An example of a VIP publisher product page test: http://www.nichejunky.com/product/iplanet Click on the VIP PUBLISHER button. Compare this with any other product page that has not been claimed yet…

    Publisher Activity Feed: http://www.nichejunky.com < scroll down and you’ll see a facebook style activity feed, anytime you update your resources, you get front page attention to your product or launch.

    CB JV & Launch Calendar: http://www.nichejunky.com/calendar Another amazing feature that we feel will benefit everyone is to have a proper CB launch & JV calendar in order to help you aggregate affiliates well before your launch day – all on autopilot. Simply claim your site and CBID, if you don’t have one yet that’s ok too. Add all your launch resources and info, and that’s it! You get a free plug and gateway into your launch along with a posting in our calendar, front page feed, and VIP publisher listing.

    VIP Publisher Listings: Once you claim your product(s), you also get a listing on the vip publisher page which will simply be a list of all publishers as they claim their sites. So affiliates have quick access to recently added materials, and vendors can easily stay up to date with their affiliate recruitment/creative deployment without worrying about internal management or blasting their aff list etc. http://www.nichejunky.com/publishers

    Advanced Search: http://www.nichejunky.com/advanced This is a little more robust than simply typing in a keyword or CBID into our search bar. This allows detailed sorting with specific search terms to find your perfect risk balanced products – i.e. you can search for ‘forex’, with a minimum gravity of 100, maximum 200 (or unlimited), earning you at least $80 a sale, maximum of x, with or without recurring billing – and it will pull up only the above.

    Dashboard & Publisher Settings: Navigation has been updated on our dashboard page (once you login), and we’ve implemented publisher settings options that will manage your ‘product claims’, ‘affiliate materials editor’, and ‘product launch campaigns’.

    Bug fixes: We’ve sped up the site tremendously, and all browsing, sorting, etc. is now optimized for a fast and efficient stay while you dig at your data and explore the CB inventory.

    …. Oh, and it’s all free . Vendors - you just have to register, and start claiming your sites to add your materials. Affiliates - don’t even have to register, unless you want to manage your portfolio easier, create your product shortlists and promo lists, and be on board as we evolve this into its next versions.

    We’re doing a blitz campaign today and for the next week or so, which means vendors that participate and claim their products asap will have some free eyeballs as you piggy back on our marketing – so I look forward to seeing all of you guys claim your sites, and all you affiliates also create an account to check this out as one day you’ll inevitably grow from aff to vendor.

    We also have adspace and campaigns available which is the only way we really monetize NJ so if you like what you see, and would like to get more premium eyeballs/affiliates at your programs feel free to inquire about banner space/featured product site wide links, etc. and Mikey or I will give you a deal.

    Thanks guys, if you have any comments, questions, bugs, or just want to drop some love/hate, please let me know what you think of our initiative.

    Chop chop!!

    I'm new into affiliate marketing. I have an small business and recently started my affiliate program with CB. How can i be sure this is not a scam or something that will end up damaging my business? Because to be sincere it does sound good.

    Good Day :):):)

    He's been around a long time and is one of the top aff/vendors. Tons of reputable clickbank aff will vouch for him. No scam.

    Looks like a good resource.

    :)

    You can be sure by googling me, or by waiting to see what others say - if you're new then I don't blame your skepticism however you'll soon learn to love all that nichejunky offers to you even if you don't participate in the product claims... all in all we just did what CB doesn't - created a central location for all publishers to upload their creatives and all affiliates to get access to them/communicate with them/etc. Not sure how it would damage a business, you can also delete your account/claim in a few clicks.

    I'm also a CB vendor/affiliate and have been for quite some time, so I know the pains most go through from both ends. Newer publishers have a bitch of a time recruiting/attracting aff's. Affiliates have a harder time finding good programs and or having contact with their pubs. Analyzing and sorting data plus a portfolio of sites you run/promote/test, this allows you seamless access to free promotion and affiliate recruitment, and a deployment center for your ad material to fresh relevant eyeballs 247...

    Feel free to ask more questions! We're happy with the rollout, still tweaking here and there however overall the objectives we first had in mind are finally reached, bridging that gap.

    I agree with apples2. Not to mention, someone isn't going to hang around a forum for almost 2 years, have over 1,300 posts and just to scam people. Do a search for his other posts and you can see exactly what great reputation NCMedia does have!

    I'm sorry for not knowing who you're. I did googled you. Thanks for your help man. I'll take a good look to the info you gave. Perhaps since I'm new in this I haven't had any hard times yet, but with the info you gave us, it will certainly be less hard. I appreciate that you bridge the gap between beginners and experienced.

    Good Day to everyone :):):)

    I dread to think how much time I have put into this. If you're skeptical about Norb's reputation merely on this forum alone, I think mine is enough to speak for itself.

    We're still doing some upgrades but I feel at the moment we are the number 1 clickbank affiliate resource site & trends/analytics place.

    If anyone has any questions I too will gladly answer them. Me and Norb are both equal partners on this so you can contact either of us for just about anything, whether it be support or advertising inquiries :)

    The updates are great. For past few weeks, i visit nichejunky every day to look for new clickbank products and to monitor the stat's. This update makes things even easier.

    ** Get back to work! :D Hey Mikey, I think they like it... !

    ** Great to hear - Once you become a publisher believe me you're in for a treat ;)

    **Cheers - have you noticed the page by page actual loadspeed difference? The wizardboi aka mikey did some more magic to the site/sorting/browsing and it's now lightning fast compared to the way the DB use to get mined/spit out results... I'm personally loving that the most this version, over all speed :)

    ** Thankya - I would like you to us it too, and tell your friends, and mama, and tell your friends to tell their mama's, and...

    -----------

    Great response so far from everyone both on the forums and on the site itself. Quite a few publishers have already claimed their products and uploaded lot's of affiliate resource materials.

    * We're going to integrate thumbnails on the resource pages as well so you won't have to click to view when a vendor has 40 graphics/banners/ppc etc.

    * Ideas and plans for this are now spiraling again and we'll be in the dungeon updating this without warning or notice for a while. Not guaranteed when just yet but soon - those that register will be able to message vendors with an internal communications system. This doesn't mean you can sign up and spam everyone one by one with your new program trying to recruit them either... This means affiliates can communicate with vendors directly and vendors can respond.

    * Thank you kindly for the support and I urge those of you that have CB products to please go claim yours now, we spiked in traffic today more than this site ever has, and it will probably only grow for at least the next few weeks while the buzz flutters through the CB vine (which again means more free eyeballs for you as we continue the ad blitz for NJ). Go - Claim your product>>!

    Thank you fam.

    NC, i have noticed a lot that the loading speed is much faster. Before when clicking on lets say new products it'll take few seconds to load page. Now things are much faster. I thought it was my laptop that was slow but it wasn't.

    Tell Mikey to get back to work. lol

    :Hey NCMedia, surfing the web I found a software called cb centrifuge that allegedly increases the gravity number of your product on CLickBank which is of course excellent, but I was wondering if this kind of tools are somehow illegal or will affect your ClickBank account somehow.
    Thanks in advance for your advice.
    Have a good day:):):)

    No. There is nothing that NicheJunky does to physically affect your Cb account.

    No. Not directly.

    Gravity is purely affected by the number of affiliates that sell your product.

    However Nichejunky can gain you more affiliates promoting your product, which will in turn improve your gravity.

    Centrifuge is one of the rotator scripts I mentioned in the other thread. It does bump your gravity but by you pre-programming which CBID's the sales are supposed to go to. Basically if a customer ends up on the offer page by going directly through the vendors promotions not an affiliates, centrifuge replaces the 'none' with a pre-programmed ID. No it's not illegal but like mentioned in the other thread, if you don't have a good converting product to begin with, you'll just lose gravity naturally eventually anyway unless you keep funding the sales yourself...

    Further to Mikey's response - the end result is 'yes' it helps improve your gravity, but not just by signing up - by signing up, creating your resource page, uploading your materials, and or even grabbing an ad campaign to get prime sitewide attention to your program. This will call on tons of affiliates, and if your program is attractive (good commission, nice $ amount overall, great branding and marketing materials etc.), then you will definitely notice both an increase in affiliates and in your bottom line.

    It might look complex (well, ok it is), but basically you are using NJ as a hub to attract prime affiliates that are digging the CB inventory data LOOKING for good programs and staying current with them. Can't really get anymore targeted than that when you as a vendor are looking for them in return...

    keep claiming those products people, I'm already seeing some nice gravity boosts on a few programs that were listed, and we've got one huge launch already listed in the calendar - participate please, your pockets will thank me!
