Increase Your ClickBank Affiliate Income With Review Pages
ClickBank is one of the largest sources of digital products, and some 10,000 merchants use ClickBank to sell their products.
ClickBank is great for merchants. It provides an affiliate scheme and processes credit cards on behalf of the merchants.
ClickBank is also great for affiliate marketers. It’s easy to set up a free ClickBank account and start promoting any products you choose using your special ClickBank “hoplink” for the products. Most merchants pay at least 50% commission, so it won’t be long before the money starts to pour in to your ClickBank account.
There’s nothing to it, is there? Sorry, but yes there is! Unless you’re going to follow the example of most people trying to sell ClickBank products and making little or nothing for their efforts, you’ll need to avoid the common mistakes that they make.
Promotion techniques such as putting banner ads on a website or adding affiliate links to either email and forum posting signatures, are not enough to convince people to buy anything through your ClickBank affiliate link.
Let me show you a method which I’ve used to great success. OK, you have to work at it a bit, but it will be well worth your while:
How To Write Product Review Pages
What you need to do is to spend a little time writing a review of any product you want to promote, and put this product review page on your website. You’re aiming to convince people, not just to click through to the merchant’s sales page using your affiliate link. You want them to arrive on the sales page all ready to buy. You are “pre-selling” them.
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.
Unfortunately, many people, even though they realise the benefits of review pages, still make elementary errors.
How To Write Better Product Review Pages
1) If you simply write about the good things in a product, you will be unconvincing. It’s not hard to find a few minor faults in a product. And, of course, you make sure that the good points heavily outweigh the bad points!
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) Avoid using any of the “copy” on the merchant’s sales page. People will lose confidence in your review if they find that you’ve copied chunks of the sales page.
4) Write as if you have used the product. And if you haven’t used it, you really shouldn’t be writing a review! Many merchants will send you a free copy of a digital product if you say that you are writing a review.
5) If possible, find other similar products and compare them with the product you really want to sell. You could even give a star rating to each one – making sure, of course, that your main product gets the most stars!
