    Has anyone had any experience with Clickbank?

    I am just wondering who has had any experience with ClickBank?

    I registered as an affiliate with them a while back but I have only ever promoted one of their products. I have spent some time every now and then browsing through their offers but I just can't seem to find anything I like that is worthwhile to promote.

    The feeling I get is that there is not much of value there for me.

    Has anyone here ever promoted ClickBank products or maybe purchased ClickBank products?

    What was your experience like and how do you feel about Clickbank?

    I've played around with ClickBank a few times because a friend of mine gave me a good trick in order to get a decent amount of sales.

    Basically you'll want to focus on what the gravity of the product is. The higher the gravity, the better the product. Well not necessarily better, but it's sold much more than other products and that's what you want. If it's currently selling like hot cakes, you can get in and sell a bunch yourself.

    When I was messing around with ClickBank I was selling something that was for diabetes but it was for anyone who spoke Spanish. I set up a quick 1 page website with my "Buy Now" affiliate link which linked to the check out page of the original seller. I did this to increase my conversions because if someone clicks "Buy Now" and hits the homepage of a different website, they'll just be annoyed and bounce off the page pretty quick. Most of the time after they click "Buy Now" they don't check the domain in the address bar so they usually don't notice that they're now on a different website Has anyone had any experience with Clickbank?

    I was making a decent amount of money, but I was not really profiting because of all the money I had to put into my PPC campaigns Has anyone had any experience with Clickbank? If you can find something that gets you penny clicks and you sell 1 in 100 then you'll be golden Has anyone had any experience with Clickbank?

    One thing I've learned about CB is that it has the highest refund rate to any other marketplace on the Internet. It's literally rife and for every 10 purchases you get, up to 60% of them will be refunded. This is because most buyers that use CB are resellers and are buying the eBook simply to download it, rewrite it and then sell it again on CB as their own! CB only has a small percentage of people that buy the eBooks for them self to actually read whatever the eBook is about. But the majority of people that use it know that once you've purchased it, you can download it, then you can just ask for a refund saying you're not happy with it or something and the seller has to refund you because it usually says at the end of their sales page for that eBook something like "Buy now and if not happy within 60 days we will refund you" and there's no way of getting out of that and they have to honor it. Plus if that doesn't work, you can open a ticket with CB asking for a refund or threatening to open a PayPal dispute and they'll drop everything they're doing and do it straight away. They get so so many PayPal disputes opened because of dodgy, rubbish, low quality eBooks not adding up to their sales pages that they don't argue the toss and just do it. That said, it's not a bad place for a seller and a good writer and eBook author can still make some good money from it if they have a popular eBook. But it does and has put a lot of people off in the past from using it though for these reasons. And even the resellers and affiliates too.

    Thanks Mike, that makes sense. I just don't like the look of much that is on offer there. I have also heard bad things about ClickBank too, that it is rife with scams too. This makes me quite hesitant to promote their products.

    The only one product that I do promote is Bring The Fresh, other than that every now and then I go and have a quick look and then leave without seeing anything of interest.

    I Have had horrible experiences with clickbank I purchased Photography-jobs.net Premium Membership to be able to sell my photos online and I am being denied access to the site. I have been charged $29.30 and will be charged $27.00 each month if I cannot get this account closed. I have tried on several attempts to email them but it bounces right back or doesn't go through. Conveniently for them, there is no number I can call and even speak to live human being. This is a scam and it needs to be shut down now. I need your help or assistance on how to handle this situation before I am robbed of everything.

    Well apparently you can take it up with ClickBank? Or so I heard... Have you tried taking it up with ClickBank?

    The feedback I have gotten from some people is that ClickBank is riddled with scams and dodgy products. This is partly why I have been really hesitant to promote any of their products. If I had to promote a scam on my website that would be a very bad move for me.

    Clickbank is not available in my location, therefore, I have not used clickbank. However, I once used clickbank for my customer.I was working on a website for a client and my duty was to design the website, add contents and monetize with affiliate ads. I asked the client to set up clickbank account. I used client's account details and checked the clickbank. Instead of selecting html code for the products, I use plugin to set up clickbank ads on the website. The products displayed were ebook.
    I have a question for those who have used clickbank? What kind of products are available in clickbank? I have used Amazon, Linkshare and Comission Junction and these affiliate networks have various finds of products.
