Hey Guys, We often get threads here saying "clickbank is a scam", or all clickbank products are crap and only made from impuse purchases. Now sure, there are alot of crap products, but I thought it could be good if we colate a bit of a list of products that are definietly worth money, and are a reasonable return for your money (i.e. weather you like the product or not, it is just not right to call it a scam product.) I'll start: BANS: sure I have observed pretty low CPM on my BANS store, but your certainly getting something for your money. Keyword Elite SEO Elite I don't think it is right to call any of these products scams. Anyone want to add to the list?
First, this will never be pinned, so what's the point. Second, who is the ruler of scam and not? This thread will turn into a debate on the good vs Bad. Three, self promotion. Who's going to call their product a scam?
I'd have to say most CB products are scams. They sell false dreams that they can never fulfill; most of the work is fiction presented as reality. Some are silly, some are helpful, others sell to people that are trying to sell the same thing. It is a circle and eventually real marketers move onto promoting real products vs. informational ones.
Products with those claims are not scams. That's just a smart way of marketing. It's used offline as well. For example, those phone companies offering you a mobile phone for FREE*, but you won't actually get it for free, because you will sign up for a contract and start paying monthly. The trick is that you don't pay for it, when you take it away.
Sure, not much point, just a bit of fun. Got a bit of the flu, so I certainly don't want to do anything productive. I'll tell you what. Lets make me the ruler of scam. (only kidding).
Most of the muscle building programs are very good - Vince Delmonte and the like. Plus some of the IM ebooks and softwares. The worst of them on Clickbank are the downloads and TV to PC sites.
Here are some products that I have checked out that I don't think are scams: - The Magic of Making Up - The Women Men Adore...and Never Want to Leave - Turbulence Training - Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle - The Tauren Chef Cookbook I think a general rule of thumb is; if it's a big niche (make money online, loose weight) there are going to be more scams. I don't see many "scam-ish" products in small niches like cooking or gardening, for example.
SEO Elite is the best Clickbank product I've bought because I use it almost every day. There are a few good forex products but they are definitely in the minority.
Ironic since in the past two days I have seen two threads complaining about bookmarking demon. Everything is in the eye of the beholder
This is a very good point. if clickbank is a scam, there are MANY so-called legit companies that have been around for decades that are scams too!
Clickbank does have its good and bad just like anything else. There's some good products to sell that are not in IM niche. For the IM niche you just have to be careful and pick the ones that are not full of extra hype.
