I have a prank site that spreads itself viral it gets about 100-130 visits a day, the reason why they end up at the site is because someone has sent them the prank so the visitors aren't looking to buy anything. It doesn't do too bad at adsense, is it worth adding a Clickbank product or will this be a waste of time? If so what? Does anyone else sell anything this way?
You could use make money links or free movies or music ones. You could make some extra money with a few good ones listed on the site.
you have to profile your visitors. do they have credit cards? if so, money making products usually do well for untargetted people. If they don't have credit cards, then your options are lead based commissions, ringtones, email payouts, free profiles (ie: dating sites), etc. you have to know your audience.
Yeah, it could be worth adding a clickbank product but as you said, which one? With prank sites, I have always got the most joy/money/luck out of not promoting a product from clickbank, rather setting up my own products. This is not all that difficult if you have a sense of humour. For example, there are several online T-shirt stores that allow you to brand your own store _and_ add your own products. You simply design a graphic and choose a t-shirt style to put it on, then add it to your t-shirt shop. It doesn't just stop at T-shirts because many of these same stores also offer coffee mugs, baseball caps etc etc, all with the ability to add a graphic to them. The strange thing is, my biggest selling product was a T-shirt with the British flag on it, with the word "NORWAY" printed underneath. Totally unrelated to my site but funny to the type of people who were going to the site. You can easily then link it to your site, even with your header and footer from your site so it looks integrated in your site, labelled as "Shop". Job done. Spend a few hours designing products that are amusing - you can even find other people doing this and get inspiration from them too. One example site is http://www.spreadshirt.net/en/GB/Sell-t-shirt/Open-Shop-57/ (not affiliate link, just a link to the shop designer page.) Just an idea...
What a great idea! Totally never thought of that. Would you relate the T-shirt to the site or just make a general wacky weird or funny T that stands out?
Do both, some T-Shirts that are related to the site, then a load of other shirts, mugs or whatever that are funny to make money on. Easy to set up and you choose the commission per product that you wish to make.
Send your visitors to the Main page of Clickbank Mall. They can choose any product they want and purchase. They can also search for all clickbank products and purchase anything. I believe this is the best option.
You don't make money with untargetted visitors. PPC is the best form of monetization for these kind of visitors.
