Program

If
you want to make money with a Clickbank program, this four step
strategy is
easy to follow and you won't have to spend a single dollar to put the
basic
version into practice if you don't want to.
Step
One - Find a good product to promote! One free way of doing that is to
go to
the Clickbank Marketplace and search there. However, the Clickbank
Marketplace
is pretty basic so you might want to try an alternative service such as
Cbtrends.com, which is completely free.
With
Cbtrends.com you can browse Clickbank products and order results
according to
various criteria such as popularity, gravity, earnings per sale,
commission
rates and so on. You can also check the performance history of
individual
vendors or products, which is a very useful research tool indeed.
Step
Two - Select keyword phrases. You should be able to find several useful
keyword
phrases by reading the sales page. When researching keywords, look for
phrases
that have a high level of search activity and a relatively low level of
competitiveness. You can use the free Google Adwords research tool to
do this
at: https://adwords.google.com.
Step
Three - Publish an article. Now write an article around one of your
keyword
phrases and submit it to some of the top article directories such as
ezinearticles.com. Your aim is to generate interest in the Clickbank
product
that you want to sell. You could write a product review or a background
news
report about the product. However, do NOT try to sell the product and
under no
circumstances should you put your affiliate link in the main body of
the
article or even in your signature file at the foot of the article.
So,
how do you get the reader from your article to your Clickbank program
sales
page? You do it by linking your signature file to your blog... not your
regular
Internet marketing blog, but a blog especially set up to talk about the
particular product you are promoting...
Step
Four - Set
up a product-related blog. Go
over to Blogger.com and set up a free blog specifically about
the
Clickbank
product you want to promote. Ideally, you should include the name of
the
product in the title of your blog. Now write a short report about the
product
with a link through to the sales page. The blog is there to generate
excitement
and curiosity about the product so make the language punchy, powerful
and
urgent.
You have now set up a
traffic
funnel from your
article to your blog and finally to your Clickbank program sales page.
The blog
acts like a bridge between your article and your sales page and if you
write a
strong blog post, it should help to pre sell the product so that the
surfer will
arrive on the sales page in a receptive frame of mind, ready to be
persuaded
that this is the product that he or she needs to solve the problem that
you
dealt with in your article.
Once
you have your blog-sales page link set up, you can write
more articles utilizing some of the other keywords that you researched,
and
submit them to various article directories. Your articles will also be
picked
up and republished on other websites, which will help to increase
traffic flow
to your blog. Your blog will also begin to show up on the search
engines as you
continue to fill it with product
related
information. Remember to include a link to the sales page with each
post.
Follow
this four step marketing strategy consistently and you should be able
to make
money with your Clickbank program.
I
wish you the best of success,
