What Converts and What Doesn't

Hi,

I am new to Click Bank. I would like to know how to figure out which product converts well and which doesn't. If I go by the info I get in Click Bank, 'all products convert great'.

For a novice, what advice can you give in choosing the right products?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Best advice is to have products that deal with your sites topic. No sense in having dog training on a music site no one will buy it.

 

I always promote merchants that have professionally designed sales page for niches outside of Internet Marketing.

I believe average consumers believe merchants with better looking sites are more trustworthy and credible and that's why sites like car-auction and expresspaidsurveys have done well for me.

Take a good look at the merchant's site before you start spending money promoting it.

My 2 cent's worth..

 

Thank you guys.

Grunt, did you use PPC for advertising or something else. I am trying to promote an acne product and I just understand how these keywords work. Not many clicks and 0 sales.

 

I have gone away from ppc advertising. There are those that are very successfull at it, it is an art. I know there are many e-books out there that can help improve your ppc. I like to drive traffic to my blogs and articles, this gives me free traffic


To your success

 

I'm slowly moving away from PPC as well, now I rely heavily on submitting articles to various directories. Submitting articles is a slow process but you are getting a piece of virtual real estate out there, it's long term.

PPC is fast but it's short lived and potentially expensive. Anyone with a bigger budget (and there are many of them) can and will nudge your ad off the ranking.

 

Products that are generally have good content make sales. Websites that are well design and have good reputation and have alexa ranking below 100,000 are usually good to promote. It depend on your product the most.

 

First rule is to read the sales page and watch at the layout and ask yourself if you would buy that. If yes, then it is a guaranteed 100:1 conversion ratio, if you want something to convert 20:1 or whatever, then you must test. You can have 100:1 with one keyword, 1000:1 with another and 5:1 with third. So, technically, you cannot tell unless you test.

 

Thank you all.

visit the vendor site from a visitor point of view.
if you like the product, promote it.
if not, leave it.

most of the products in the first page of search results can be converting well.

 

I cant add to the advice you've had so far--I think it's excellent.
Only thing is, a lot of Clickbank affiliates are very unhappy at the moment.
They think that Clickbank isn't tracking properly and that they are losing sales.
I should look at forums that discuss Clickbank and see what you think.
There are other companies that you can be an affiliate for--Paydotcom, Commission Junction etc.
Might be an idea to diversify and make comparisons
