Promoting clickbank products with a blog

    So who would be willing to give me some blog urls for examples of blogs that promote click bank products that actually convert. I am very confused on how you guys do this whole promoting products. I mean the only thing I can think of to do is what I'm already doing. Heres my blog.

    http://www.productreviews101.blogspot.com/

    and I haven't made any sales in ages.

    So some examples and techniques that any one could provide to make cb product convert on a blog would be great.

    Do you have a lot of traffic on your blog ? Do you send a lot to clickbank ? Send at least 3 hundreds SE traffic to a product and then you'll see if it converts.

    I really dont know if I have alot of traffic. I do not send traffic there with adwords.

    Also what do you mean by this

    "Do you send a lot to clickbank ? Send at least 3 hundreds SE traffic to a product"

    Whats SE is that search engine and if so how do I send it.

    Well... you've created a blog. Probably the purpose of which was a gain in SE traffic, right ? So does your blog get it ? (Hint: get a counter)

    How much of that traffic goes to your clickbank affiliate links ? (Hint2: get another counter)

    I'll be really honest. I think your blog lacks authenticity.

    Have you actually bought any of those products you "reviewed"? My gut feeling says you haven't. People can sense that and it's a big turn off. Makes people close the window really quick.

    I see no real value to your blog. Do you feel that you're providing value to people? Looking at your blog, I think readers would feel like you're only trying to sell them on something and that's all.

    Sorry if this seems harsh, but think about sincerity. Think about what visitors would want to see when they take their time to go to your blog, not just what you would like to sell them.

    No it really dosnt feel all that harsh. It was my first one and Ive had no previous experience writing articles. I think if I find products on click bank that appeal to me (which ive been able to find none so far) it will be easier to keep a blog.
    And like you said it lacks authenticity mainly because I didn't actually buy the products. Well Im not trying to put words in your mouth but how would you go about writing a article/review about something you didn't buy.

    O and also how would getting a counter tell me how much traffic am I getting to my affiliate links. I did put one on my blog though.

    Your blog concept is not bad. It is true that original and thorough content is desirable. Your concept of getting advertisement-like content on posts really converts when you promote new products. Get that info out there as soon as possible. If your changing think of info to publish by its content. Great content first measured by readability, addicting or habit forming to read, relevance, and importance. The rest just sells itself.

    If your using wordpress you can install the alinks plugin to embed affiliate links into the blog posts, replacing keyphrases for affiliate links.

    I'm not using any script/plugin, it's just a custom template with a <meta refresh> tag. Probably not as easy as using a script/plugin but I like to keep my Wordpress installations minimal :)

    What's the point of renewing a thread, which is more than 1 year old?

    You could have created a new one about your problem.
