Four Important Rules for Choosing ClickBank Affiliate Products
by Wolfdave
At ClickBank there’s more to choosing products than just checking affiliate commissions. You need to know how well the vendor’s web site converts to sales, for example, and whether links or other features at the site might innocently, or deliberately, rob you of your affiliate commissions.
Most important of all:
* You should avoid sales pages with too many outgoing links that might detract the visitor from ordering through your affiliate link. For example, AdSense promotions on the product vendor’s site are a big problem for affiliates, because once your visitor clicks on an AdSense link earning commission for the ClickBank product owner, that potential buyer could be gone forever and with him your ClickBank commission. Testimonials can also lead to potential buyers leaving the page for alternative sites promoting products that don’t generate commission for you. Incidentally, although most testimonials are entirely up front and honest, I have seen others where the active link to a testimonial provider’s site is designed to generate commission sales of higher price products than whatever you are promoting.
* Offers of free reports and gifts at the vendor’s site to join the ClickBank vendor’s list do not always include your affiliate link. If there is no affiliate link in the report, your recommendations will benefit the site owner, not you. I recommend you personally join the list to check your link is included in the report or ask the site owner to create another page just for you without the sign up offer.
* Invitations to download free reports or join a mailing list before buying the product might earn you commission, but you’ll lose control of many more names than will actually become buyers for the product concerned. Once on another person’s list, those who bought and those who did not buy on this occasion, can be targeted regularly by that other person for products similar to those you might also be selling, and effectively losing money for you. Unless commissions are really high and preferably ongoing, I recommend you avoid products with sign up pages or other name gathering devices.
* Avoid sites with multiple payment options, other than ClickBank and PayPal-incorporated ClickBank links. Other options, including independent PayPal buttons may mean you won’t get commissions on sales to your visitors.

What really makes internet money unique is that you are in control - now it is not to say that search engines and budget are not important, but never forget that YOU ARE IN CONTROL!!! It is a matter of having the CORRECT and AFFORDABLE tools to have an income from the Internet.
