ClickBank offers a slew of fraudulent products and misleading information. The e-book jungle also has many top-quality products that you could promote to your email subscribers or website visitors. In other words, you have to be choosy about what you promote.
That said, let’s move on, you are here because you want to know how to promote Clickbank products.

Understanding Your Customers
The first step to understanding who your visitors are and how they use your content is to visit your own website. Your business should be home to many entrepreneurs, small business owners, bloggers, and social media professionals.
It is a smart idea to visit your site and consider the types of people who will be visiting it. That will help guide you in choosing the right Clickbank products you should promote. Next, create a simple spreadsheet that will keep track of all the products you’re looking at.
It doesn’t have to look fancy. The product name, the gravity (which I will explain in a bit), the price of the product, and a link back to the sales page are all you need.
This is what you want because when you go to Clickbank.com, click on the Marketplace tab at the top of the homepage, you will see hundreds of products that you can promote on your site. It can be difficult to keep track if you don’t have a spreadsheet.
Search Products through Categories
Once you’ve successfully landed on Marketplace, and have your spreadsheet created, you can now look at the categories on the left-hand sidebar.
These categories must suit your audience. Your site may have a category that grabs your visitors’ attention, depending on its content. Not only should you look at the ones that work best for your site, but also other categories that may match what your target audience is looking for.
Sometimes, the most effective products can be found using these categories. You should always start with the most intuitive categories.
We will be looking at one category, eMarketing and eBusiness. Clickbank will automatically sort the results based on popularity once you click that category.
Popularity refers to the number of sales that a product is making. Affiliates will be able to sort results by gravity. Click on the little dropdown menu and choose Gravity.
What is Gravity?
Gravity is a complicated concept, but it basically shows how many people are making sales with that product. It’s vital for you as an affiliate because the more people who make money from that product, it really proves to be a winner.
If you think this is a product you would like to promote, you can go over to your spreadsheet and enter the information in the various categories. To ensure the product is suitable for your audience, take a close look at its sales page.
Choose the Right Products for Your Visitors
To do so, click the link at top of the box. The sales page might be a video. This is common for Clickbank products. Just watch the video to see if your audience will enjoy it.
When the product looks like a good match for you, and the sales page confirms this, then you should buy the product. Clickbank often has products with great sales pages, but when you get to the point of buying the product, they are not as good as advertised.
You can buy the product to ensure that you don’t offend your audience. It must be affordable so that your audience can appreciate it if they decide to invest in it.
Next
Next, take a look to the bottom of every page. You will find an affiliate link on almost every page that Clickbank products have, regardless of whether it is a video sales letter like this or a text-based sales letter.
It’s basically a link that will allow you to access a variety of resources to help promote the product. If it’s visible, you will want to search for it and then click the link. Look at the basic offerings, such as banners that can help you or dedicated affiliate managers.
You usually don’t have the obligation to sign up. You’ll often see this “Already registered? Click here and you will be able to immediately access the resources. You may be able to win a contest.
Resources
Sometimes, you can also get a lot of resources, including swipes or banners. You can search for banners or creatives to find the right fit for your site.
It doesn’t matter if they don’t work out, you can always visit Fiverr and order a banner for very little money. Or you can create your own banners on Canva.com. It is free to join and use.
I find that the more you can get to help promote your product the better. You can test it out on your own site and see if it converts.
If they provide a lot of creative support, it is a good indicator that they are going to be helpful when it’s time to sign up as affiliates. It doesn’t have to be a deal-breaker if you don’t see many banners. It just makes it easier to promote the product.
Clickbank products are best suited for your website if you do this. You can see that the first thing to do is determine whether the product appeals to your audience. Then, check out the sales page to confirm that the product is legitimate. You should check if the company offers a lot of support to affiliates.
