Hello Everybody! ClickBank is excited to announce the ClickBank HopAds Builder, a powerful new way for affiliates to promote ClickBank products. The HopAds Builder allows affiliates who own Web sites or blogs to easily create fully customizable ad boxes. This tool allows affiliates to customize both the look and content of ads to match their site. The HopAds Builder is entirely free to use, and HopAds pay out the same affiliate commissions as Hoplinks created through the Marketplace. HopAds use ad text created by ClickBank publishers to appeal directly to consumers, and all ads are screened by ClickBank for content and quality. To start creating HopAds to display on your site, click on the CB News. Regards, Markov
Looks good. The only downfall is that you have to specify the keywords for every ad as they are not detected automatically as in adsense. If you have a site related only to a niche it is ok, but if you are mixing more of them, it might be tricky to create tons and tons of ads.
Did you test it? How may keywords should we enter? I tested it for PSP keyword, but the ads turned up were of different niche. I doubt its relevancy.
Those who understand how to sale clickbank product will not invest lot of time into this. Presell is the best way to sell clickbank product that what I believe. But still there is a hope, People those who get un-targeted traffic can monetize this stuff e.g. file hosting site.
Great alternative provided by clickbank as apposed to those adsense style clickbank scripts you have to pay for.
This information was really revealing, and I can see where it adds another element to marketing. Jack
It'll take a while for it to steady itself out. They probably did it as smaller companies already made such adverts to profit for themselves.
That's a nice tool, that I've been waiting for long time. Now sites like www.cbtopsites.com and www.cbadrotator.com are going to die
Yes, I like it. This would be very good for niche sites and of course it is better than the cents of Adsense
CB must've seen CBAds as a working tools. Now they decide to offer this by themselves. Which is better though?
I have tested it this morning, it works well and can be made to fit any shape of available space with the custom widths and heights. Would love a tracker for the clicks, not only sales. It works well in adpeeps ad management and rotator too. One slight hickup though. When I included my own clickbank product (viewnow) and the hoplink would obviously include my clickbank username (also viewnow), then a click on the ad in hopads provided me with a completely different clickbank username as the affiliate - meaning I would lose out on the 50% commission... when I removed my own clicbank product, all other products carry my clicbank ID for affiliate commissions. Strange.
They NEED to do more testing. Ads displayed today were totally irrelevant. I love new products, but when it comes to CB, they always launch without prior testing. It should be labeled beta now.
