Increase Your ClickBank Affiliate Income With Review Pages
One of the largest sellers of digital products is ClickBank, with over 10,000 merchants using is to distribute 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.
Is it really that easy? No, of course not! Many people make very little money from ClickBank products - even assuming that they at least try (which many don’t!). So many people simply promote ClickBank products incorrectly.
It’s not enough to use such methods as banner ads or links in your forum postings and emails. That’s not enough to persuade people to purchase through your 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:
Building Product Review Pages
You need to write a review for any product you want to promote as an affiliate. The purpose of the review is to “pre-sell” the product. You need to get people in a favorable frame of mind so that when they visit the sales page through your affiliate link, they are much more inclined to buy.
Product reviews are successful because increasingly, when someone is thinking about buying something, they go to Google and search for “review + product name”. Try it, and you’ll see how many web pages are returned from a search for a review of a specific product.
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 Write Better Product Review Pages
1) Your review should not be full of glowing praise for the product. Instead, make a few minor criticisms of the product - which are, of course, outweighed by the benefits of the product.
2) Remember that you’re not aiming to “sell” the product. Leave that job to the merchant. What you should convince visitors to your review page is to really want that product. Then you want them to click through your affiliate link to go to the merchant’s sales page with their credit card in front of them!
3) You mustn’t use words and sentences taken straight from the merchant’s sales page. Your review will lose all its impact if you do this. It will no longer be seen as impartial.
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!
I hope that you’ve gained some good ideas from this article, and that it will help you to improve your ClickBank income. You’ll find it even easier to promote ClickBank products by using the tools included in my ClickBank ToolKit.
