    Hi Ryan.

    Sounds like you're launching a product? If so:

    1. Your hoplink will look like http://affiliate.vendor.hop.clickbank.net and you replace 'vendor' with your clickbank ID, and 'affiliate' will be used by affiliates promoting your product.

    2. MarketPlace Description should describe your product well to both consumers and affiliates trying to attract them to sell your product.

    3. The commission rate is what you would like to pay your affiliates that make sales for you. So if your product is $10, and you set a commission of 50%, you and your affiliate will share $5 each (after CB charges).

    If you are simply promoting other peoples products, you don't need to worry about any of the above, all you would do is put YOUR CB id in the 'affiliate' part of the hoplink, and when you find a good product to promote you put that products ID in the 'vendor' part of the link.

    Cheers hope this helps you out a bit, may seem confusing at first but it's in fact uber easy once you get the hang of it.

    **When you start making hops and sales, utilize the 'analytics' reports by logging into CB, click 'reporting', click 'analytics', and play with the searches. You'll be able to see where custmers are buying from, times, etc. and can better shape your marketing campaigns to both your own products and to others.

    Make it a great day.

    I think NCMedia covered pretty much everything. Keep commission above 60% to attract more than handfull of affiliates unless your product is too good and converts well.
