There's no doubt about it...
Clickbank Marketplace has consistently been one of biggest producers of revenue for the "work from home" crowd for years, and will probably be around for a very long time. Unfortunately, far too many affiliates have jumped in feet first with little or no training, lost money, then disappeared just as fast.
And the worst part is...
If only for a little guidance and direction, everything could be totally different. Therefore, I'd like to share with you 3 of the most common mistakes I see Clickbank affiliates making.
Mistake #1 Going For The Top-Selling Clickbank Marketplace Products
This my friend, could be the worst mistake of all, especially for someone who's new to Clickbank marketing or has a limited marketing budget. And the reason is because, the money lies not in finding 1 BIG selling product, but rather in multiple "above average" selling products.
I have to admit, it's very tempting to look at all the hoopla surrounding the best-sellers and wanting to jump right in. However, you're much better off finding the newest products that haven't taken off yet and positioning yourself in front of those.
Leave all that ferocious competition behind. You'll save yourself tons of frustration, time, and money.
Mistake #2 - Immediately Start Promoting With A Pay-Per-Click Campain
If you were to do a Google search for your particular product, you'd find that the search results will display a small army of affiliates all competing for the same keywords and sending prospects to the exact same landing page.
More effective approaches are to put out a press release, write an article, create a "review" blog, recommend the product to your MySpace friends, etc.
Mistake #3 - Staying Only In The Internet Marketing/Make Money Online Niche
You see, everyone thinks this is where all the money is. Not so. You would not believe how much opportunity there is in the health, music, how to, or pain relief and stress management niches.
Sshh, here's a "top secret" bit of information most Clickbank affiliate marketers don't know about:
The website http://www.CBEngine.com can provide you with listings of every NEW product as it hits Clickbank Marketplace. This handy little website provides tons of "insider" information that will give you a headstart and put you in front of the pack.
When you're searching for a Clickbank product to sell, take a look at the website. What keywords are used most to describe the product? Do a Google search to see if there's a market for it. It Google brings back 75,000 results or more, there's probably a market.
So there you have it, do just a little homework before you start promoting your next product and you will absolutely give yourself an unfair advantage over the competition, you'll enjoy it more, and most importantly...you'll make more money!
