What does gravity 0 means ?

    I saw products on cb analytics where its all 0, 0 earnings, 0 gravity, what does it means ? Have it been sold before ? Is it necessary that it have never been sold a single copy, can it be that the sales only coming from the merchant ?

    If you are cb merchant and have product lie in that category (all 0's), can u tell if you have made a sale by yourself before ?

    Thanks guys.

    Gravity is a scale system clickbank uses to let you know how many affiliates have sold a copy of that product. Everytime an affiliate gets a sale for that product the number rises.

    That means a product hasn't received a single sale in the last 90 days.

    I would personally NOT promote such product.

    Zero gravity means not yet a single affiliate sale.

    Don't promote such an affiliate .. You will be able to join later if their gravity will rise up :)

    Specifically I believe it means no affiliate sales in the last 8 weeks. So yes the publisher could be very successful with it and he just hasn't promoted the affiliate program much. There probably are a few gems out there that could convert very well but no affiliate has ever tried to promote because of this "everyone promote the few products with a 300+ gravity" mentality I see so often among most affiliates. Yes high gravity means a lot of people have had success with that product but it can also mean that the market for that product is saturated and you might have more luck elsewhere.
