Some Clickbank Basics



You have to be somewhat in the know to even have heard the name "Clickbank" much less know what it is.  This is funny because the truth is that Clickbank is far and away the largest internet marketplace for digital products and affiliates who want to sell them in the entire internet.  That puts Clickbank in its niche on a par with Amazon or Ebay and yet few have heard of Clickbank.  It just keeps running smoothly serving the internet community without fanfare.


                                                                                                            - Mohammed Zahran -

Selling Everyday on Clickbank



There is a prevailing mythology about the Clickbank marketplace that it is virtually an effort free profit machine.  Its easy to get the wrong idea because it is a marketplace where if you get your product out there into the Clickbank marketplace, there are over 150,000 eager affiliates ready to pick up your product and begin to sell it.  Those affiliates don’t need to tell you that they are going to sell your product or get your permission.  Just by virtue of being in the Clickbank community gives them liberty to sell your product. So in theory you could put a product out there and see its sales soar with no more effort than that.

Safe Selling on Clickbank



In the non-internet world, retailers are always fighting a war with shoplifters and people who would take your product without paying for it.  You would think that this kind of thing would not be a problem in an online world.  But in Clickbank which is the largest internet marketplace in the world, one of the biggest problems is stopping people from downloading a digital product and then not following through with payment.


                                                                                                            - Mohammed Zahran -

Pricing your Product to Move



In any marketplace finding the price to ask for your product or service that appeals to customers but doesn’t cut you out of profits is a tough balancing act to pull off. Pricing at what you think you deserve for your work may suit your self image but it might mean your product or service will not sell.  A big factor is the competition because if someone else comes into the market with a similar product for a little less, they can steal your market share.  But on the other hand selling too low means losing margin which means at some point you lose money so why be in the marketplace at all?




                                                                                                            - Mohammed Zahran -

Picking Products on Clickbank



When you are setting yourself up to be an affiliate on Clickbank, you almost go through overload.  Clickbank offers 10,000 products that you can pick from to sell online, each of which usually offers a pretty generous commission.  The problem is how to go about picking just the right products to represent.  You don’t have to worry about the merchants because under the Clickbank system, you can select a product and immediately start selling it and Clickbank handles all the commissions and interaction with the merchant entirely.

More Than One Way to Wealth on Clickbank



As is true in any marketplace, the potential for money making is diverse and always new in a place where merchants and buyers are always coming together to negotiate and make deals happen.  So as an entrepreneur it’s a good idea to have a fix on the various approaches to profitability in what is the largest internet marketplace in the world - Clickbank.

Minimum Overhead - Maximum Sales



There is an old phrase about technology that goes "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".  That principle may be true of one of the many great features about the Clickbank marketplace and how they set you up to put product into their markets.  When you want to sell in Clickbank, the process is pretty simple.  You create an account like you do on any other website.  And there is a $50 fee to become a valid vendor to sell product through the Clickbank affiliate membership.  But when you consider that Clickbank has over 150,000 affiliates ready to pick up your digital product and sell it and that many of these affiliates are some of the most accomplished internet marketers in cyberspace, you are probably going to make that $50 back on your first product into the system.

Making Clickbank Affiliates Your Own



One thing many merchants love about putting product out on the Clickbank market is they really don’t have to recruit affiliates to sell the product.  Clickbank has some 150,000 affiliates scanning the product listings every day and picking up new digital products to sell.  Among this army are some of the top names in internet marketing who could be looking at your product and picking it up to sell to their very large customer base.

Heaven For Small Business



Starting a small business has to be one of the most courageous things a person can do.  There are a lot of unknowns that can strike fear into the heart of any small business owner.  Issues of labor, supply and demand and the market always are a concern.  And even if you do all of your market studies and prepare intensively, launching that business is sometimes an act of faith.

Ebook Publication is a Breeze on Clickbank



A lot has changed in the world because of the internet and nowhere is that more noticeable than the publishing industry.  At one time the big publishing houses ruled the land like wizards from stone castles and any fledgling author who wanted to have a prayer to get a book published had to scale those walls.  That meant a lot of talented writers and some excellent books never saw the light of day because the executives in those companies did not see a profit margin in it for them.


                                                                                                            - Mohammed Zahran -

Driving the Customers to Clickbank



Clickbank is a great marketplace and it's worth the work and small expense to get your digital product out there because of the huge exposure it can get to a very large army of affiliates. But just putting your product into the market and letting it go at that to wait for the affiliates to do their job not only doesn’t seem to be enough, there is a lot more you can do to make the sales of your Clickbank entries take off.  So its just smart business to find the best internet marketing techniques that will pay the most rewards in terms of sales through Clickbank.


                                                                                                            - Mohammed Zahran -

Clickbank Refunds and What You Can Do About It



The internet is not the only place that refunds is an issue to a retailer.  From the perspective of the internet merchant, customer satisfaction is of the highest priority.  Because competition for customer loyalty is fierce, you know that keeping repeat customers coming back is the fastest and best way to long term financial success in sales.  So offering an iron clan refund guarantee if the customer is not satisfied sends a message to the consumer that their happiness is top priority to you and that they can shop with you in confidence.


                                                                                                            - Mohammed Zahran -

Clickbank is About More than Just the Stuff



Most of us think of Clickbank as a service dedicated entirely to digital products. A digital product by definition is a something you sell.  It might be an e-book about anything from children's stories to an analysis of clinical depression to a guidebook to how to play a great game of golf.  It might be a software package that makes life easier or a really cool game you invented.  But by definition, it is "something".  Which means that in that context, Clickbank is all about the stuff.

Alternatives to Clickbank

In a lot of areas of technology, there is a dominant player.  We know about how Microsoft pretty much dominates every aspect of PC technology.  There are smaller companies that dominate application areas to like Adobe for PDF file or Photoshop for photo editing.  And when it comes to the internet and online marketplaces, the dominant power there is no doubt Clickbank.    But it's good to know what alternatives are out there for comparison purposes.  And possibly the biggest real threat to the dominance of Clickbank is a site called PayDotCom.

A Night at the Drive In Birthday Party



Birthdays are a very special time indeed. One party theme that works well with people of almost all ages is the idea of a movie night. Whether you want to make your movie a drive in movie or you prefer the modern conveniences of air conditioning in the summer or heat in the cooler months then that is understandable you can bring the movie night in. If you'd like something a little new and different then creating a drive in movie is a great way to go and you can invite all the neighbors so that no one chooses the moment your movie begins (hopefully) to start making a ton of noise.

An Egyptian Themed Birthday Party


Ancient Egypt is a fascinating place all these years later. From mummies and pyramids to pharos and scarabs there is plenty of fuel for the fascination pyre. Keep in mind however, that the goal here is for the kids to have a great time, not to be frightened so keep the scary stuff to a minimum if possible (even if your child is brave to a fault that doesn't mean that some of the guests won't be frightened and you want the experience to be pleasant for everyone).

A Casino Night to Remember Birthday Party



Life is a gamble. What better way to celebrate that gamble than by rolling the dice or playing cards all night? A great casino night is definitely a lot of fun to be had by all. You can choose. Of course you will not be able to use real money for this but can allow each guest their own set of chips or monopoly money to play with for the evening and have fun prizes for the winners and funny parting gifts for those who do not fare so well. The important thing is that you are celebrating the great gamble that life really is in the perfect style for doing so.

A Birthday Party at the Scene of the Crime

Television shows such as CSI (and the subsequent CSI Miami and CSI New York), NCIS, and Cold Case Files have made crime scenes and crime investigations the new murder mystery parties. They are a great deal of fun when properly planned and well executed but leave a lot of room for failure if poorly planned or inflexible. If you are considering a party such as this, a great party for teens and adults alike be sure that you either have an actual mystery to solve as the evening progresses or that you simply use the theme as a backdrop. There is no real right or wrong way to do a birthday party but if you want to throw the party that everyone will be talking about you'll need to create a crime for the scene you're investigating and leave clues all around to help with the investigation.

Automobile Features That Can Save Fuel



Drivers seem to let out a collective groan whenever they realize that it is time to stop to fuel up their automobiles, thanks to the sky-high gas prices these days.  You would be hard-pressed to find a driver that would not like to save a bit of money at the gas pump, but many people simply do not know how to achieve this.  Many consumers turn to products that promise better gas mileage, only to be disappointed.  Others believe that they must buy a smaller vehicle or sell their current one, due to the expensive fuel problem.

Its one thing to have a great product and it's quite another to make sure customers know about it.  And that principle is even more vitally true when you list your product on the Clickbank marketplace.  There are literally tens of thousands of products available for affiliates to pick up and sell within Clickbank.   And even though there are over 150,000 affiliates, that is a huge marketing environment.

Motocross Racing Versus Auto Racing



There are many individuals who are enthusiastic about auto racing throughout the world. There are many national races that take place across the United States to get excited about and the Indianapolis 500 is one of those auto racing events. But if you're interested in racing then chances are that you've heard of motocross racing. Before we get into the battle of whether motocross racing is better than auto racing or vice versa, though, it would be beneficial to understand just exactly what motocross racing is and what all the hype is about.

Auto Racing Safety



Whenever there is an auto racing event then there is probably always going to be concerns of safety along the way. Even though auto racing cars generally have excellent restraint systems that will prevent auto racers from getting blown out of their car at almost 200 miles per hour, there still needs to be safety accessories that an auto racer has with them and on them at all times. Whether you are a fan of the professional auto racing events, though, or are just starting out performing at auto races across the United States unprofessionally, safety is a major issue that one should concern his or herself with. Just as there is safety equipment that is typically used in any other sport like basketball or football, auto racing has its own kinds of safety measures that go above and beyond what any other sport would consider.

Auto Racing: Learning What the Pros Know



Have you ever watched an auto racing event on television and was envious at the experiences of the driver? Even though there are many times that great auto racing events take place where there are no accidents or crashes, the moment a driver dies or crashes the thought about how dangerous the sport of auto racing is should hit home to most people. Nevertheless, many average people are excited about the thought that they get whenever they think it may be possible to get the chance to ride in a racecar, much less drive in one. On the other hand, there are very real schools across the United States and elsewhere that will let you have the feeling of a lifetime. If you are bound and determined to experience an auto racing car from your own driver's seat, take a look at some of the opportunities that these organizations will help you with!

Auto Racing Games For the Computer



There are plenty of auto racing simulators that are made for the computer that will allow you to have the experience of a lifetime! Just as there are plenty of these auto racing games, though, there are also different categories of auto racing games that will allow you to have different levels of auto racing experiences. For example, some will include the Daytona 500 or the Indianapolis 500 auto racing events in the game, while others will simply give you a road, your choice of car for the race, as well as a character choice for the game. All in all, auto racing games on the computer can be thrilling at best, but most of the time they are disappointing. In order to experience the ultimate thrill of a lifetime, though, it is absolutely necessary to attend one of the most famous auto racing NASCAR events of the season.

Auto Racing at the Indianapolis 500



If you are even the slightest bit interested in auto racing then chances are that you know everything that goes on over at the Indianapolis 500, or Indy 500 as it's more affectionately known. Even if you're not into auto racing very much at all chances are that you've at least heard of the race and know that it takes place in Indianapolis usually one weekend out of the year. But why is the Indy 500 so special and why does everyone go crazy over watching automobiles race around a racetrack? There are hundreds of thousands of people who attend the event each year; there's no doubt that these people tend to chomp at the bit whenever they hear anything remotely mentioned about the race!

Auto Racing: A Fun Pastime



Have you ever picked up a favorite pastime or activity that you knew you were born for? Just as there are many people who feel that they were born to greatness, so too are there many people who contend that they were born to be famous in the auto racing industry. When one thinks of the many famous people within the auto racing circle, such as Jeff Gordon, one can easily see how the personalities of the drivers in NASCAR and other auto racing circles do correspond to the activity that they are performing in. If you have ever considered auto racing, though, chances are that your mind just glossed over the thought of it. In fact, many people don't even know how to get started with auto racing, even though it can be one of the most fun sports and pastimes ever. Here are some reasons to get involved right now with auto racing:

Incorrect Niche Selection in Affiliate Marketing



It is true that the majority of people in affiliate marketing are not very successful. A large number of the affiliates change their field of affiliate marketing without earning even a single penny of commission. And if someone is lucky enough to earn some money, he cannot carry on affiliate marketing as his full time job because the amount of money he earns is so small that he cannot do it full time. Hence, the end result is the waste of time, money and energy.

How to Choose an Affiliate Program



If you are an affiliate marketer, you have two options. The first option is to choose the product which has a great demand in the market. These items are expected to be sold immediately due to the interest of the people. Some examples of such particular items are dating sites, casino sites and weight loss products. The second option is to choose a product that suits your interests and you, yourself like to promote it.

Promoting Low Priced Products in Affiliate Marketing



If you are new in the field of affiliate marketing and your website traffic is not very large, then you cannot make more sales. If you are promoting the products that are low priced, then your monthly income will be very low. Usually the e-books and audio files are one of the lowest priced products which you may decide to sell. The usual sale price of these items is less than $100. This means for every sale, you will be receiving about $20 if the sale commission is 20%. In order to generate some reasonable revenue, many sales will be needed. But it is not possible in case of new websites where traffic is not very large.
