Build a Niche Website or Blog

Consider building a theme-based website. Choose a topic that you love and are passionate about. Or choose a topic that supports a top-selling ClickBank product. Create lots of content on that topic and use the content to promote your ClickBank product. Content options include:

* E-newsletters

* Reviews
* How to videos
* Reports
* Online courses
* E-books

Article Marketing

Another great way to earn affiliate income from ClickBank products is to utilize article marketing. When you use article marketing, you write articles topics that support your chosen ClickBank product.

For example, weight loss. If you’re promoting an e-book about weight loss, then you would write articles on the subject. In your author’s resource box, you would include your affiliate link to the e-book’s sales page. Readers will click through. They will then make a decision to buy the book. Each reader who makes a purchase earns you a commission.

Social Networking

You can also use social networking to promote affiliate products. Create a fan page or profile. Write posts that offer value and link to the ClickBank product you’re promoting. Branch out and use several social networking websites to boost your income. Of course, don’t forget to interact, too. People tend not to respond to networkers who only promote.

PPC Advertising

If you’re skilled at finding low-supply keywords, you can use PPC (Pay Per Click) advertising to promote affiliate products. The trick is to test and track so you make sure you’re earning more in commission than you’re spending in advertising. By utilizing this tactic, you don’t have to build a website. You only have to research and write great ads. Each advertisement will send prospects directly to the affiliate sales page. If they have a good conversion rate, then this method can really pay off.

The great thing about being an affiliate for ClickBank is that you can choose any method that best fits your needs.  Many ClickBank vendors offer a wealth of marketing materials. They may offer sales pages, articles and blog posts. They may even offer PPC ads. You can use these materials however you see fit.

If you want to earn extra money, try ClickBank. Being an affiliate is a great way to earn a living or add money to your pocket.
