Increase Your ClickBank Affiliate Income With Review Pages
ClickBank is a huge source of digital products. It distributes products on behalf of over 10,000 merchants.
From the merchants’ point of view, ClickBank makes it easy for them to sell. They don’t need to process credit cards themselves, and they don’t need to set up an affiliate scheme. ClickBank does both of these jobs for the merchant.
Affiliate marketers, too, like ClickBank a lot. With a free ClickBank account you can immediately start promoting any products sold through ClickBank, using a special ClickBank “hoplink” for each product. With most merchants rewarding you with at least 50% commission per sale, you’ll soon start making serious big bucks.
Sounds easy, doesn’t it! But life is never that simple. The truth is that most ClickBank affiliates make little or no money from promoting ClickBank products. Assuming that they’re not lazy and do actually put some effort in to promoting the products, they often go about it in the wrong way.
Many people just put up banner ads on their websites and add their affiliate links to their forum posts and emails. These “lazy” methods don’t work. Few people will click through to the merchant’s sales page from these methods.
But there is a better way, and it’s a technique which I’ve been using for a while. You’ll need to devote some time to it, but your time should be well rewarded.
Writing Review Pages
Product review pages are simply web pages which express opinions about a product. For this technique to work, your review should “pre-sell” the product – to get people to want the product before they visit the merchant’s sales page though your link.
The reason why this technique is so successful is that more and more people, before they buy something online, look for reviews of the product. If you type “review” + a product name into Google, you’re likely to find examples of product reviews.
Even this technique on its own is not enough. Many, many affiliate marketers write very poor review pages. You need to be a little subtle!
How To Improve Your Review Pages:
1) Don’t fill your review with nothing but good points about the product. Find a few unimportant things that you don’t like. These, of course, should more than countered by the good things!
2) Don’t try to “sell” the product. The main purpose of the review page is to get people to click through to the merchants’s sales page through your affiliate link, ready to make a positive buying decision.
3) Don’t copy any of the wording used on the sales page. As soon as the visitor goes to the sales page and recognises some of the words which were on review page, your credibility goes out of the window!
4) Ideally, you should already have used the product before you write the review. Ask the merchant for a complimentary copy of the product saying that it’s for a review. Many merchants will be happy to do that.
5) If there are other competing products, write a “comparative review”. In this review you’ll be comparing the product you’re promoting with other less satisfactory products. If you use a “star rating system” (and I suggest that you do), your main product will, of course, rank higher than the others!
If you follow this plan, you should be able to make a lot more money by promoting ClickBank products. And if you use the tools in my ClickBank ToolKit, your work load will be lightened!
