Earning With Clickbank Without Articles?????????

Discussion in 'ClickBank' started by mekap04, Apr 22, 2010.

    Are there any good ways to earn money from Clickbank without articles or having to rank a keyword? I need to earn 1 more sale to pass my payment threshold but the old way I did it was by submitting articles everyday and now I really hate article writing. I already have my landing page and products and everything, I just need to get people to it. Any suggestions?

    PPC or just buy a cheap product through CB using your own affiliate link. That will get you the 1 sale.

    PPC is like the only other option my friend... What I would do if i were you is to save about 75 bucks and put it on a debit card, and create an adwords account. Remember adwords charges a 5 dollar fee, so you will have about 70 dollars to spend. Find one product that has pretty good gravity, and promote it with related keywords on the content manager/search. Start off at like .04/.05 cents a click. If you don't get a lot the first day, just wait a few days for adwords to power up.

    hopefully you will get some profit, and you will make about 120.. or something, or you may just end up making 2 - 3 sales and getting your money back. Its only 70 bucks and your chances of getting your money back are like at 65% from my experience. Whats there to lose?

    Your shirt is what you can lose on adwords. I have never made any maoney using adwords to promote Clickbank products. unless you have about $10,000 to spend the first month to get going. I have spent alot of money on adwords....when will I learn?

    I wish i could find a way to promote clickbank products that actually paid off and made profit. I have made only about $2500 this year....need a system to ramp it up!!!!

    The fastest way without having to write anything would be by PPC. You already have a landing page, so why not.
    I never have lost any money from using Google adwords, I've always made my money back and then some. Even when I was a newbie. However, I also did some research before I tried it out and took advantage of the FREE credits.

    Yes, there's a chance you could lose some money with ppc but it's not really that hard to make one sale.

    When you are creating your campaign for, let's say Google adwords then make sure you do [exact match] this will help you only get traffic for your specific keyword and give you better targeted traffic, which leads to cheaper clicks and more conversions.
    You could also try using only content adds, which is usually a lot cheaper yet still effective, if you choose the right keywords.
    Make sure you keep an eye on your campaign, constantly.

    Just use some of the keywords you were using for your landing page and articles.
    Also, do a little research and find some "buying words" keywords that people are entering that actually would lead to a conversion.
    Checkout some of the Google adds when you decide on some keywords and look to see if the other adds you see are for the same type of product or service. This would probably mean that it's a good keyword and making them money.
    In your add put the price and don't use words like free, this will help keep people who aren't going to buy from clicking on your add.

    You could also try using Yahoo and MSN. If you don't have an account with Google or the other search engines, take advantage of the FREE credits you can usually get when starting your first account with them, or Google it and look for free credits or vouchers for FREE credits.

    cheers!

    You seem to know alot about adwords....I have an ad running right now for my own product. I have bought tons of tools to find keywords, I own Keyword Elite....I have tried adwords countless times and never had an ad worth keeping it going. I have put up ads that I was gaurunteed to make money with and ended up losing money on it after it made a bunch for someone else. I think Google has put out a hit on me!!!!

    Yahoo is much easier to deal with than Google. If you are going to give PPC a go, I suggest you start with them. Good luck!

    No offense but if you're just looking to get a quick sale then you're not going to succeed in affiliate marketing. I could be wrong but you sound like you're trying to be lazy and take a "shortcut" to get sales and that just isn't the way to go.

    Whether you like it or not, article marketing and SEO are the two best ways to build a respectable, long-term income when it comes to affiliate marketing or any kind of online marketing to be honest.

    I'm not sure exactly how you were going about your article marketing campaign, but if you're just submitting articles every day and nothing more then you aren't truly doing "article marketing". There is much more to article marketing than just writing an article and submitting it a directory. It's not all about numbers.

    So typical :)

    Why don't you write a few articles and try to rank them for some keywords? You'll get more than "ONE" sale ..

    I know a lot about article marketing and the work that needs to be done to achieve results. I have achieved good results with article marketing and I know it just isn't about submitting articles everyday and watching the sales come in. You have to rank for keywords, build backlinks, do SEO, and the works. I have been there done that. I want to take a break from it for a while until i get some personal sites to rank for its keywords so I am not focused on writing articles right now. I am just building backlinks to a bunch of sites. In the meantime I still want to make 1 more sale before I take my break from Clickbank. Thanks for eveyone's suggestion.

    Understandable. As I mentioned in the post, I could've been wrong about what I said which, obviously, I was.

    It is a bit of a repetitive burn out after a while. Breaks are always needed. We all need a bit of a vacation every once in a while.

    That is true. I don't think I will mess with PPC yet because that is one area I do not know much about. I guess I will just write some articles as this has worked before.

    It's always better to lose time than money ...

    But then again time IS money so you're somewhere in between.

    You need to do a deeper research on your niche and you'll surely turn higher conversions.

    build an automatic blog, but you will stil need to do link building.

    i had few sales from it, but still most of my sales are from article directories

    If you have money to spend on PPC why not make use of that money to outsource article writing. At least your articles would stay on directories unlike PPC ads that would disappear once you reach your budget.

    I'm getting into this discussion kind of late -- sorry. I am really confused about using Adwords for promoting Clickbank products. I've had an Adwords account for quite some time. A few months ago, when it happened to everyone else, one of my campaigns suddenly went to a quality score of one. I have six other campaigns (products) that still have good quality scores. Admittedly, the campaign that took the hit had quite a few affiliate links that were uncloaked. On all the rest of my campaigns I'm using domain redirects on my links.

    Since Adwords went on the rampage as to affiliate sites, I've been afraid to add any new products -- I've even been afraid to add new keywords and/or ads to my existing campaigns for fear that I'll push my luck. Guess I'm kind of afraid of doing anything that might cause a manual review. The sites I am using are small sites -- 10 to 15 pages -- with the Adwords landing page being a review of the product which has redirected links to the publisher's site. I'm clearing about $600 a month and really hate to see it go away. I'm very confused as to whether Adwords approves/disapproves of these type of sites and if I have reason to be fearful about adding new campaigns or expanding on my existing ones.

    Can anyone give me any insight into this so that I can make a decision on how to proceed forward?
