Most affiliate marketers know about ClickBank (and if you don\u2019t I\u2019ll explain exactly what it does just below) but few of you guys know how to make money with Clickbank<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A typical process for a newbie to affiliate marketing<\/a> is that they sign up, find some crappy product with a high commission and start to fantasize about how it\u2019s going to make sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then, they throw some random traffic at it and watch how nobody spends a dime on it. Finally, they come to the conclusion that the platform sucks. Sounds familiar?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Well, here\u2019s how it worked for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2014 was the first year we tried to make some money off the platform. We ended up making $37,075 off it without trying very hard (ClickBank has always been a secondary monetization method, so far, for our businesses).<\/p>\n\n\n\n As we saw the affiliate marketing revenue<\/a> from Clickbank grow, we paid more attention to it and decided to optimize the process so we can make more money online with Clickbank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After a few months of hard work, we managed to transform this small income stream into something a lot more sizable as you can see by this screenshot:<\/p>\n\n\n In this post is that I\u2019ll show you exactly how to make money with Clickbank using the process we devised during this time period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Clickbank is an affiliate network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In fact, according to our affiliate marketing statistics<\/a> page, it’s the second-most-popular affiliate network in the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n But unlike traditional affiliate platforms, Clickbank serves as a marketplace for both people who create products and affiliates, so they can make money together without complex paperwork or agreements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In other words, Clickbank is the middleman between creators of digital products, such as ebooks, video, music<\/a> and so on, and people who can sell those products, i.e. affiliate marketers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Obviously, depending on which party of the marketplace are you, Clickbank fulfills one of the two functions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n As an affiliate marketer<\/a>, you can jump right in, create your unique affiliate links for thousands of products (more on that later) and start to drive traffic right away to start making money. You will also see your earnings in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s free to join and there\u2019s no screening process. No cap or complicated metrics. It\u2019s basically a simplified affiliate network, open to anyone that wants to give it a shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In case you want to try it out, simply go register on their homepage<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As a product owner, you can add your product to the database and ClickBank will take care of all the checkout and e-commerce part, as well as offering an affiliate program for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You will be charged $49.95 one time activation fee, for becoming a seller on Clickbank. I believe this fee does a good job of keeping some low-quality vendors out of the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is great if you don\u2019t want to handle the technical part of things but you have to know that the platform will take quite a bit of money off your sales ($1 + 7.5% of the sales).<\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s why if you start making some serious sales volume, you may want to move out of the platform to platforms like Thinkific<\/a> or Teachable<\/a> because these don\u2019t take a % of your sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to % of sales, you\u2019re charged $2.5 dollars payment processing fee, every time you take out the money. Clickbank can also approve customer refunds and charge you $0.50 or $1 for that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The rise of the LMS platforms like the two above is probably why Clickbank has been losing some steam in the last few years …<\/p>\n\n\n\n As an affiliate marketer you might ask yourself, why sell ebooks and online courses from unknown producers, if you can just sign up with say CJ<\/a> or Amazon Associates<\/a> and sell reputable products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n
