    Hello!
    Since I'm quite new to this, I'd like to ask some questions. How many products can I advertise on a single website? Can I use free articles in my website, or it's better to hire a writer? How will ClickBank pay me if I'm living in Europe? Which is better - blogspot or wordpress?

    Thank's for help

    Hello my friend, It really depends on what you are tryinh to promote. With nearly all markets it is best to have one page for one product... Otherwise it gives the traffic to much to choose from and weakens the coversions on your webpage...

    Make each page highly targted for that one product. Also you need to think about how you drive traffic..if you use free plr articles you will not rank for any keywords no matter how many backlinks you throw at the site. Use unique quality content. Review sites work well..

    Ofcourse you can ot buy every product and review it like that but you can read key points of other peoples reviews and make your own from that, but make it unique...

    The truth is though the best way to make money from clickbank is to build a list, make your webpage a squeeze page and build a list of targted subsribers. This way you only have to bag the traffic you get to opt in once... you can market to them for life...

    If you need any help give us a shout my friend

    I would definitely go with Wordpress over Blogger. I would also hire a writer or write the articles yourself over using articles that have already been published elsewhere. As for the number of click bank products, it really depends on what your site is about, who your readers are, what the products are, etc. Too many variables to give a definite answer.

    5 products on your site is good to aim for. But if your site is focused on 1 product, then stick with that and also write a review/article on a competitor product (with affiliate link)

    Always better to hire a writer as their language and grammar will be superior, not to mention you will be saving precious time.

    Clickbank will pay you two checks for the first two payments, and then you can set up direct deposit after that :)

    Wordpress of course. Blogger is a free platform, but I'd invest in using the proper tools like Wordpress as there are many plugins and tools to optimize your site.

    See my sig for more tips :)

    It can help you understand which the best article structure is, what kind of messages have to be inserted into its structure and everything that is connected to advertising. It is true that you also need some talent for writing if you decide to experience such an affiliate marketing business type, but you don't have to be a genius in order to succeed it. Some hard work, a bit of ambition and some perseverance can make miracles and transform your dreams into reality.

    Hey there!
    You can use both platforms and get double results. Why not?

    If you create good content, then you need to post on multiple places because you receive the best results.

    The number of products you promote really depends on your theme. For example, if your theme is "health" related -- and let's say it's focussed on "weight loss", there will be a variety of different products you can promote. If your niche was more narrow -- let's say promotional software -- you might have less options to choose from and you'll want to narrow your focus.

    It is also highly dependent on your marketing strategy. Obviously, if you have a "comparison" site you'll need multiple products to compare. But if your site is built around one particular niche / product, then you'll want to stick to that particular product.

    Either way, the products you select should help support your theme...

    It really doesn't matter how many affiliate products you choose to advertise on your site, but it's common practice to either stick to a single product or at least promote products within related niches. You can certainly write your own articles if you have some writing skills -- if you don't, hiring a writer to do the job for you is a valid option.

    What list should I build? Could you please tell me more about squeeze pages, because I don't know much about them. As I understand, people subscribe and receive emails from me. What should I include in these emails? A product review? Thanks for great information everybody!

    When you're starting out it's best to write your own articles, then outsource it as you have money to do so.

    I have one more question. Let's say that I'm promoting 1 product. Many people say that 3-4 articles have to be written to get more traffic. In the first article I review the product. What should I write in the next 2-3 articles?

    I would choose Wordpress. How about writing some features of the product? I think this will attract people's eyes. Uoften can write more details about it, so it's useful to get more traffic.

    Here is one tip of advice: The level of transparency and realistic information, when you are doing any type of affiliate marketing, people fail to deliver quality content with transparency. People can tell from your writing, if your information is garbage and just to simply want to make money. You have to need that level of understanding in order to work.
