Well ihave regissted, How i start to work? how i contact vendors, and how can i trust them? Can someone explain and even give me some newbie tips? Thanks, Marco.
welcome to CB go to marketplace and search for products. you will also see a link below is vendo that says create hoplink, click there and you created yourself an affiliate link to that product. CB is very trustwordy, I have been receiving weekly payments via direct deposit every week! you first need to get 3 papper checks, after that u can setup a Direct Deposit (depensing where you live) also, remember that your first payment will come only after 5 puchages of 5 different credit cards and 2 of them must be Visa and Master card. this rule applies only once, after that you will receive payments weekly or biweely depending on your thrshold
Very trustworthy. 1. Search the marketplace 2. Choose a product to promote 3. Create a hoplink (mask your hoplink) 4. Start your promotion 5. Earn commission and wait to be paid by clickbank. They always pay on time.
I personally do not do much masking, but that's because I am a vendor. But for affiliates it all depends on what you want to do. You can easily use a url shortening service like: shorturl.com or freedomain.co.nr Just pick a short url that is available and make it mask to your hoplink. Or you can create your own .com and have it mask to your hoplink. You will have to pay but its not too much. A lot of serious affiliates do this.
By masking you mean not showing the hoplink right? Or can you actually remove the part where it says your aff id at the vendor page?
The beauty of Clickbank is that you don't really have to contact anyone to start selling. You just get your hoplink and start promoting - the vendor will usually have little to no idea who you are, they will only know your id. You also don't have to trust the vendors with your money, because you're paid by Clickbank and they track all the sales. It's actually only 2 paper checks now, which is nice for anybody starting out.

I mask all my hoplinks using a .info domain-name with forwarding of the url. You don't need hosting for this, it's a service supplied free of charge by most registrars. I buy my .info domain-names for this purpose at GoDaddy. I need one for every product I promote but they're only $1 each. Using a "shortening service" is very unwise indeed, for these and other reasons:- 1. It looks unprofessional 2. It's saying to your potential customers "I want to conceal something from you" 3. It's short-sighted to let your business be dependent on the continued goodwill, existence and terms of service of an unnecessary third-party service (as all tinyurl users suddenly realised recently, though in fact their "emergency" was resolved - this time!). How dramatically inconvenient would it be for you if they suddenly disappeared, as had been known to happen? Would you be able to re-edit all your links/backlinks on other people's sites/blogs?! I wouldn't ...
I use info's or even com's, org's etc., but if you already have a website why not just make a php file with something like this: www.example.com/go/clickbank.php or www.example.com/recommends/clickbank.php, and then do a header (html?) redirect. Seems to be the standard.
For many people, it's because Ezine Articles expressly prohibits that. Only a top-level domain can be used for forwarding. As long as you're not using Ezine Articles for any of your promotion, it can work.
