Affiliate Marketing Clickbank Strategies Overview

Now that you know everything you need to know about Clickbank, let’s take a look at using Clickbank product links to make some sweet moolah! We will be looking at multiple Clickbank products and easy methods to get traffic to those products.

---

It’s Really About Web Traffic

Web traffic is the key to everything when trying to make money online with affiliate marketing Clickbank strategies. Think of your product link as a billboard. In the offline world, advertisers place billboards in strategic locations. They are usually located in areas that tend to be very busy with vehicles & commuters. This is where we get the online term “Traffic”.

Billboards are placed in a location that will give advertisements the MAXIMUM amount of views. People drive by day after day and are exposed to the advertisements. We want to keep this in mind as we start working with various traffic sources. Online advertising has massive advantages over billboards and other offline marketing methods. That advantage is “Targeting”.

---

The Shotgun Effect

Offline advertising doesn’t have much rhyme or reason when it comes to targeting people with their ads. They simply target the entire population and rely on them hitting SOME of their target audience along the way. This works similar to a shotgun shell. Offline advertising doesn’t give you the ability to target segments of the population like you can with online advertising.

Here’s an example:
A radio ad for a Tanning Salon airs on a radio station and every man woman and child hears the ad.

Who is their target audience? Women between 19 – 45 years old.

Facebook Ad for Tanning Salon appears on timelines. Facebook ads allow you to target Women ONLY between the ages of 19 – 45 years old. You can be very precise with your advertising efforts which will get you more sales in the long run. It will also give you a better return on your advertising budget.

---

Only The Best Traffic Sources

There are thousands of free and paid traffic sources out there. For your affiliate marketing Clickbank strategies, you want to ensure you are using only the best traffic sources. Quality can become an issue when dealing with random sources. For this reason, we will focus on Facebook, Youtube and Google. These three traffic sources have proven quality, high converting traffic. You can also use FREE methods as well as paid methods to get traffic from these awesome sources.

Affiliate Marketing Clickbank Strategy #1 – Gaming Console Repair and Youtube

Clickbank has multiple products for game console repair. One of these products focuses on PS3 Yellow Light of Death. I’m not going to get into the technical breakdown of what that means other than your PS3 will no longer turn on. This product shows you how to fix this issue.

PS3’s are a thing of the past. Most people discard their old Playstation once it has broken or if they purchased the newest console. This hasn’t affected the market completely because people still buy Playstation 3 consoles quite frequently. There is a pretty big market for refurbished Playstation consoles. Your goal is to convince your audience that they can buy broken Playstation 3 consoles, repair and then sell them for a profit. You need to convince them that the KEY to their success is to buy your Clickbank product so they can properly repair these consoles before reselling.

There are consoles for sale on places like Craigslist, Kijiji, Facebook and even eBay. This is where they can find cheap and even free broken Playstation consoles to repair. They can also sell the refurbished consoles in the same manner on the same websites.

---

Who Is Your Audience?

Your focus audience would likely be males between the age of 16 – 30 but could easily encompass other demographics depending on your creativity. You’re looking for people who have broken Playstation consoles and would like to know how to repair them. Even though your pitch will be focused on convincing your audience to buy, repair and sell consoles, you will still get sales from individuals who would rather just repair their own. The sales pitch is universal to both types of people.

Action Plan Check List

• Copy your Affiliate tracking link for the console repair product in Clickbank
• Create a Youtube channel
• Create 2-3 videos describing the product and how they can fix broken consoles and make money
• Place your Clickbank tracking link in the description of your Youtube videos

It will take some time for your videos to get some views. You can speed up the process by posting your videos in related groups on Facebook and other social media sites. Forums are also a great place to get some quick views. Eventually, you will get organic traffic from Youtube. Keep creating new videos each week if you really want to get traffic as fast as possible. This affiliate marketing Clickbank strategy takes time but it is free traffic. This could land you sales 6 months to a year later as it builds its ranking in the Youtube algorithm.

Affiliate Marketing Clickbank Strategy #2 – Martial Arts Products and Facebook

Martial arts products are another easy way to pick up some quick commissions. These are typically in PDF or Video format and teach your audience the basics of self-defense from the comfort of their own home. In this affiliate marketing Clickbank strategy, we are going to take advantage of viral content on Facebook to generate traffic to your Clickbank affiliate link.

---

Everyone Wants To Be A Fighter

With MMA at its height in popularity, people have been drawn to martial arts more than ever. This is especially true in the keyboard warrior section on viral MMA or fight videos! Everyone has an opinion and thinks they could do better than the guy getting his butt kicked in the amateur video that has 153k Facebook Shares. This is a good thing! Let’s give them a product that will teach them how to fight.

---

Who Is Your Audience?

In this affiliate marketing Clickbank strategy, we will focus on viral Facebook content. We will be subtly posting our affiliate tracking link in the comments section on Facebook videos.

You really have to be strategic on how you do this if you want to avoid getting reported for spam. This affiliate marketing Clickbank strategy takes some creativity.
Example:

“The guy with the long hair should have taken him down! I’ve been able to defend myself over and over with some basic MMA moves. I learned everything from this awesome coach. Check it out…”

Don’t Just Insert Your Affiliate Link!

If you start spamming your Clickbank affiliate link all over Facebook, your link will get flagged and you may even LOSE your Clickbank account.

Find a website that provides free short links. This way if the URL gets flagged for spam, you can create a new one without your Clickbank affiliate link becoming compromised. Bitly is a great link shortening service and free to use.

You could also just set up your own redirects on your own server/domains but this is a bit more advanced.

---

Action Plan Check List

• Copy your Affiliate tracking link for the martial arts product in Clickbank
• Find some viral fight videos on Facebook (Just search “Fight Videos”)
• Create 10-20 comments using 5 different short links. Only comment once per video
• Create new comments daily for fresh traffic

This affiliate marketing Clickbank strategy will take some time to see some results but it builds up over time. Some videos have over 1 million views. That’s a potential of 1 million people seeing your comment. This also works well with Youtube. The more creativity you use, the less likely your links will get flagged for spam. I would also consider covering some basic tips for Facebook Marketing before you launch this affiliate marketing Clickbank strategy.
