Making money with Clickbank does take some time, but you can do it from the comfort of your own home! Yes, you can earn a very comfortable living with Clickbank. This type of work is called affiliate marketing.

Affiliate marketing is a term that means you sell other people's products. Clickbank vendors sell downloadable products (ebooks - a book written to be read on your computer, software programs (downloadable software programs that help automate everyday online tasks), and other online programs and/or products.

Everything on Clickbank is digital, which means that when someone buys something, they are instantly taken to their product.

There are different ways to make money with Clickbank. You sign up for clickbank (it's free to become an affiliate). You browse through their thousands of products via their catalog. You can type in a keyword, and Clickbank will search its database and give you the products available for you to affiliate (sell).

You then look at the sales page. Make sure there are videos, testimonials, anything that will attract a customer's attention, thuis making the chances of a sale more likely.

You, as an affiliate, are given a percentage of the product's sale price, when you sell that product. The percentage is usually between 50 - 70% of the price. It is your job to get people to the vendor's sales page, where they will purchase the product. When you sign up to promote a certain product, Clickbank gives you a unique link to use - this is how you are credited with the sale.

How do you get people to visit the sales page?

There are different ways to do this. The cheapest way (free, actually) is to write and submit articles to different article directories. You would describe the product you are promoting, describing the benefits of the product to the reader. By the time they are finished reading your article, they should be enticed to click your link, and be taken to the vendor's sales page, and ultimately buy the product!

Another way of getting people to see the product you've chosen to promote would be to invest in PPC (pay per click). These are the ads that show up on search results, usually at the top and sides of the screen. You bid on a spot for your ad, and, when someone clicks on your ad, they are taken to the sales page. PPC can be very tricky, and can also be very costly, if not done right.

You don't have to be a salesperson to make money with Clickbank. All you have to do is talk about a product. This will draw people's attention to the sales page. The more visitors you can get to the sales page, the better your chances are of making a sale!

Clickbank used to pay affiliates by check, every other week. Now, as long as you are making regular sales, you can get your checks direct deposited into your own bank account, and on a weekly basis!
