My Clickbank Story How I become #1 aff. for the #1 clickbank product

    Hey Guys it can be done.

    You don't need to have fancy Graphics or amazing squeeze page You can make money with clickbank I am living proof of it.

    The #1 clickbank product recently had a contest from Feb 12th-March 12th. The winning affiliate won $10,000 2nd place was $5,000 and 3rd-10th was $1,000.

    Well I won the contest with over 200 sales in that 30 day period my cut per sale was $75-$80 per sale on top of the $10,000 bonus for winning the contest.

    I have no fancy graphics on my review site. (That is what I used.) During that time I generated roughly 800 double opt in leads specific to that product. (Almost 4000 in the 4 months this product has been on the market)

    That 1 month was worth $25,000 to us. After you subtract refunds, advertising etc.. It is probably closer to $20,000 but you get the picture.

    And that was the #1 selling clickbank product. And I ended up first place affiliate.

    Yes, it is possible.

    NO you don't need fancy graphics!

    You need the desire and willngness to do things that most affiliates aren't.

    Don't put up some phony review site.

    DO put up REAL review, preferable you talking about the product.
    DO update your progress with the product weekly how you are doing with it.
    DO build a list for the long term business aspect.
    DO focus on 1 product until you dominate that product then move on to others. (This product has been worth over $70,000 to us in 4 months! and we are just affiliates!)
    DO focus on highly competive markets. More people talking about the product this way means more visitors. More competion isn't a bad thing just be different then the other guy.

    I think if I stopped promoting this product and ONLY emailed to the almost 4000 people now on my list other products I can make a living this year without adding one more subscriber.

    Focus on your business do the things you need to do to be successful but DON'T be like everyone else jumping from one to another. Yes, every marketer can learn more but you have enough knowledge if you are reading this to make money online.

    Awesome results, congrats :)

    I only watched your week 17 video, and was surprised to see that your results weren't in the thousands of dollars profit. I support it just goes to show the raw power of a step by step case study. It's incredible social proof, and it allays so many fears that buyers have.

    There you have it guys and girls: on-going case studies are a fantastic way to sell.

    One question if I could - your site ranks very well for the biggest keyword, "fap turbo". What sort of link building did you do for the site? Was it purely all the ancilliary sites you created (hosting, bonus etc) ?

    When I create review sites it probably takes me
    10x as long as the average person but I probably
    make 10x as much too. Your method is the exact
    method that I follow. It's worth it too buy the
    product and do an honest review.

    You can always tell who has done their homework
    and who hasn't. Even better if you give an
    actual case study of the results you've got by
    using that product.

    Awesome!

    I've read every single one of your posts and one thing is clear: you take a lot of action. It's only natural you get these kinds of results.

    Honestly, I feel a really strong "itch" to buy your product. This just shows the effectiveness of using "proof" in your marketing.

    Nicely done LazyTrading. I certainly agree with the whole proof angle when it comes to improving conversions on review sites.

    Wow well done!

    If you don't mind me asking, was this done by mostly PPC or SEO?

    Also, how long have you been marketing online for?

    Thanks all,

    I will try and answer some of your questions.

    Yes I use PPC and SEO I use anything I can use.
    When the product first came out 4 months ago I did more as far as articles etc.. Actually all I really did was some articles, press releases, and squidoo, hubpage etc.. I haven't really did much of that in the months since. And those articles were all basically the same thing just post on the different sites. IE I had 1 article and posted them on the sites.

    My review video has gone viral honestly. Funny thing and a lesson for you AFFILIATES AREN'T WILLING TO WORK!
    I did my review video an inside look at the product etc.. It has had 12,000 views just on youtube (I posted it on other video sites as well) well some affiliate copied the exact video and reuploaded it into youtube. Funny thing is its my video with me saying go to my site etc.. And at the bottom of the video is my link to my site. The only difference is in the description at the right on youtube is his affiliate link. That video got over 5000 views! LOL Yes he stole it from me but do you think I got some vistors from it. Me talking about the product for 9 minutes go to my site and my site at the bottom of the screen all video. Too funny. Point is that affiliate was LAZY! He could have done the same thing I did with his info but he just copied. And I thank him for it cause I am sure I got some business from it.

    So BE DIFFERENT!

    There are a lot of SEO stuff and not complicated stuff I do. I am not smart when it comes to SEO by any means but I do know some tricks that I am not willing to share in an open forum sorry.

    i don't track my stuff, shoot even on my review site there is misspellings. it isn't about being perfect it is about giving good content.

    You have all heard it before but you need to go out and do it. Find a product that others are selling. Don't go with the rare product no one has heard of. Let other people sell for you.

    As far as success with clients etc... Just like anything most people want it for free or to do nothing and tomorrow have thousands in the bank account.

    This is work it is fun work but it is work. There are LOTS of perks to being full time income from home that is for sure. But out of the 100 people on digital point or any forum only a small % will ever be in the top of the class that is the way it is in ANY business. From trucking driving, to banks, to lawyers. Yes people can make livings and do alright but only a very small % will ever go the extra mile to make the 6 figures or be at the top of there industry. Some don't want to me. I don't have ANY desire to do the seminar curcuit and have 50 employees or even 2 for that matter. So there are things that I am just not willing to do. I don't want that kind of lifestyle. But if I can make a comfortable living and do the things I would like and have time to do the thngs I am called to do I think that is the lifestyle I am interested in.

    hope that helps

    I was thinking that video marketing is becoming the next big thing with Clickbank affiliate marketing.

    This post has confirmed that to be true

    Hey LT,

    In regards to your video that you recorded, was it just a camtasia recording of you going over the product? Or was it a powerpoint of why people should use the product?

    9 minutes long you say! I didn't think people would have that attention span on YouTube to sit and watch!

    Was the video a targeted keyword to the product or did it have additional tags for people searching on the niche and then finding your video?

    Did you find the video resulted in many sales (assuming you could track it)

    I always target product.
    Well besides video there isn't much else on my site (A little bit of text) so if it isn't from the videos I am not sure what its from

    HI can you you give us some more info on your coaching programme. I know coaching speaks for itself but some people selling coaching have different interpretations of what coaching is, if I join your coach programme how many others will there be and typically how much money will I need to followand implement your advice. Have you coached others and typically how much do they make ?

    Thanks

    Whoever said fap turbo and the www.fapturboreview.net they are correct.

    I get traffic from a lot of places SEO probably the most though. I am horrible at tracking and I don't do it honestly.
    (Another point you don't have to be smart to make money I SHOULD be tracking)

    As far as the coaching.

    I teach what I am doing. Mostly in video form some pitfalls to avoid etc.. I give Ideas of things to market etc..

    I have webinars and 1 on 1 coaching via yahoo messenger,skype, webinars to walk you thru stuff.

    This isn't a 4 year degree I don't teach every last thing there is to know about internet marketing. I teach stuff that will make you money if you go out and implement it. I am there to bounce ideas off and help you with what I think will work.
