so here are some things that you can do to decide you know what you’re going to promote and I definitely think that the product is very important there the difference between promoting a product that is selling and a product that isn’t selling is like night and day completely different so you should always try to promote the best thing that you can if it’s your own product obviously you might be a little less concerned but you also own the whole process you can have more up more upsells you can you know build your building an email list etc so you can make more money from them so we’re gonna do some keyword research we’re going to look at some different products oh this is what I was saying niche research research so maybe you are less concerned with just you know the product but you really want to promote in a certain niche I’ve actually had a lot of people come and say that they want to promote promote in a certain niche maybe you’re really into golf and you know that there are some really killer offers out there in the golf niche or you want to build your own product in golf so you can start doing kind of niche research or if you know what product do you want to promote then you can start doing keyword research around that product and then the other thing that we can do is marketplace research so I’m gonna show you a tool for Clickbank that kind of charts the performance of Clickbank products so you can see which products are trending which ones are getting kind of hotter which ones are doing better than others basically and then so far so like I said I haven’t really done a whole lot in Mac’s bounty so far but I talked to my rep and he was really friendly and I think the smartest thing what I’m gonna do and I’ll share my experiences with you guys is to start with what he says are converting well with bings traffic specifically so maybe that’s just kind of like newbie a newbie move but I asked I asked him on the phone you know which offers do well on Bing and he told he gave me a list of like five or six so I would start there and with with the CPA networks but ultimately it’s going to come down to your testing and your landing page and things like that so let’s let’s just get in here and work through the process so uh yeah we won’t need to worry about that stuff yet all right so we’re we’re gonna start with Clickbank now there’s a lot of things to look at here the popularity as far as I can guess is is a measure of trending but this is the tool I was talking to you about CB engine you might be familiar with it but I think they have a one-time fee for like the paid version and they have some more stats than Clickbank allows you so the most basic way to look at the success of Clickbank offers is by gravity I’m sure this is this is basics for some of you but some people watching this would get a lot out of it so you can see this offer right here it has a gravity score of three hundred and four that’s really high that probably means this offer is blowing up right now I mean obviously it’s it’s number one for both gravity and popularity so it’s it’s trending high and it’s got massive gravity so that means three hundred and four different affiliates have made money promoting this in like the last 30 days or something like that or 60 days so that’s a very good candidate now in my personal experience the fat loss niche is like really weird on bing because it has if you do keyword research it shows like really high numbers and really low competition can cost per click but when you actually try to run traffic it gets a little more complicated but we can try to if you guys if you guys want to then we can try campaign with a fat loss offer so we’re sorting by gravity the next one is numerologist I’ve made sales with that definitely converts it’s a weird niche though and there’s prillie like one keyword that works for it which is numerology as far as I’ve been able to figure out because it’s not a very broad niche it’s really just like people who are into numerology the red tea detox that’s another diet offer alt though don’t don’t know how many people are searching for things like red tea detox it probably works well with you know wave officers I’ve but I’m flat belly fixed so another weight loss is doing really well Ted’s Woodworking that thing’s been around forever I’ve definitely made a lot of sales of this product different I always feel with this product I’m just like one of the many options which is totally fine you can make money doing that unlock your hip flexors 5 min in a profit series so this one might be interesting it’s a like a make money product gravity of 113 yeah so we can also check out some stats here so if you go to best gains a lot I’ve noticed that a lot of the best gaining products are like gambling products which I’m not sure if being allows gambling actually they might also they’re gaining but they’re only at like low gravity so it probably doesn’t matter so this this site just shows some extra things like momentum they’re basically tracking the performance of products over time so this one’s like it’s gone up a couple this one’s gone up a couple and the other ones are like going down over time so if you want to just kind of really dig into the Clickbank world this tool can be pretty cool for you just to get obsessed with all the offers but ultimately you just have to get in there and start testing and just see what see what you can do I know that this product his secret obsession that was on the top there for a little while and they don’t allow you to advertise on bing so you have to check the affiliate pages too so let’s look at that for a second if you’re on Clickbank every actually not every offer but a lot of offers have something the yeah these guys actually foresee too often which kind of annoying but they have affiliate pages where you can download a whole bunch of stuff and I’ll show you why this matters to pay traffic as well because basically you can take the things from their affiliate page and use them to promote the product on your landing page looks like they might force you to opt in to come on they’re from the same company maybe this one so we’re just kind of gathering information right now okay so this one actually lets you click here to access affiliate tools without signing out so now I’m the affiliate tools page they have lots of different things that you can use to create landing pages so they have email swipes if you’re building a list that you can use to promote the offer they have banner pages that you can put like on your landing page to make it seem a little more like a real website blog reviews you can generally use all of this stuff on your landing pages to promote the offer product images these can be cool if you’re doing a product based approach so we’ll talk about that more in a second but there’s kind of two different approaches with Clickbank which is one you’re targeting the product itself and these that strategy is basically like you’re going to be competing with other affiliates and the clicks are going to be expensive but and they’re gonna be like low volume there’s not that many people every month searching for the abundance miracle tone but the people that are are already like really really qualified so they’re very likely to purchase and this strategy is working because as we will see when we’re doing some research in the actual search engine it’s working because a lot of people are using that strategy so if you want to try that strategy then you can go ahead oh so these are free gift ebooks okay so you can actually download you can give away ebooks to build a list and then these are I guess the products called manifestation magic like I said I have promoted this one it’s really nice because it has a really good continuity program but yeah so yeah definitely check out if you’re on Clickbank check out the different resources they give you because you can use them to build nice landing pages we’re also going to cover direct linking because I know from experience that almost everybody wants to do direct linking because it’s doesn’t seem this complicated but sometimes it doesn’t work as well but some people just they come to me and say I want to do direct linking my thinking is why don’t you just want to make the most money so if direct linking works better than great do direct linking but if it doesn’t then you’re just losing money so I think you should go for what makes the most money but some people are just stuck on they want to do direct linking so we’re gonna cover that anyways so these are their different products but looks like they just give you email swipe yeah this is definitely something that can help you make a decision on what you want to promote Ted’s working woodworking has lots of good stuff so what I’ve noticed about this product is that the people who seem to do better with it then I have is they build a list they give away free stuff and then they promote woodworking for a long time like all sorts of stuff about woodworking so it takes a little more work but if that’s what’s working that’s what’s working so you’d be kind of silly not to do to model what they’re doing but this is a great product it just converts like crazy so your job is just to get to find the people who are interested in this product and and get them to it you know they already are interested in the product and it converts like crazy you know it converts like crazy because it’s been at the top of Clickbank forever I mean this thing is always in the top ten and so you know if you can get the right people to this page it’s gonna convert like crazy because of because of the gravity 130 still after years and years is that 131 all of these things if you get the right people to them they’re gonna convert like crazy now the challenge is getting people to them so we’re gonna we’re gonna look at how to do that I like to do direct link Carlos says but I want to take a step forward and learn to make landing pages and capture emails that part I do not dominate yet yes I love that mindset I mean I think you should be striving to become better marketers I am you know you guys are all helping me become a better marketer by just giving me all these questions and pushing my own you know knowledge and abilities I think that’s that should be the goal obviously we all want to make money we want to make a lot of money that’s totally great but we should never think what’s the least amount of work I can do you know some people will do a little bit of work and make a lot of money some people work very hard to make little money and the difference is you know sometimes luck but it’s usually skill so the more you improve your skill then the better results you’re going to get so yeah so these are some great resources here some of them even give you keywords to start with and you can you can try some of these guarantee there are other people other affiliates competing on all of these but that’s okay like I said you can just be another another person in the crowd and you can still make plenty of money so you can see some of these like dollhouse woodworking plans who knows how well that converts the way that we’re going to know is we’re going to tracking and I’ll show you how to do that but these are all basically like the different types of things that people search for now I can tell you from the system that I already have built in my head and the results that I’ve already seen is that what would convert much much higher on woodworking plans glider for that keyword is going to be a specific so Carlos here’s a great example this is a great lesson for building landing pages and lists and stuff if you give them exactly what they search for the the click-through rate is gonna be insanely high the opt-in rate if you’re opting in for a list and you give them exactly what they search for on their keyword it’s gonna be insanely high because you’re literally giving them exactly what they want so let’s take two different examples here one you say I want to do direct linking okay fine so out of every you know let’s say a thousand people a month search for woodworking plans glider and out of those thousand people get the ad you write for this woodworking book is probably gonna be something like what everybody else writes which is totally fine which is like I think there’s eleven thousand woodworking plans so that’s like the headline that works really well we’ll take a look at this but so you write that headline say eleven thousand woodworking plans well the person who’s searching for woodworking plans glider maybe doesn’t know that they want eleven thousand plans yet maybe they just want to know how to make the glider so if you write an ad instead that says woodworking plans glider or glider woodworking plans download for free and then you take them to an opt-in page that says you know click here to get your free glider woodworking plans and then when they opt-in you put a little one-time offer thing that says by the way did you know that there’s this you know crazy eleven thousand plans to build basically anything you’ve ever wanted to build so you’ve given them exactly what they want in the first part completely relevant your click-through rate is gonna be crazy you’re probably going to get like fifty sixty percent click-through rates because you’re literally giving them exactly what they want they get to the landing page your opt-in rate is going to be crazy because you’re gonna give them exactly what they want that’s exactly what I was searching for plans for a glider and then on the next page you offer them something now you’ve captured their name and put them on an email list of people who are interested in woodworking so you can follow up with them and you’ve given them exactly what they want and then you can make the offer to the woodworking extra say by the way your plans your glider plans are on their way to your email but in the meantime did you know that there’s a resource with eleven thousand plans and it’s today it’s today only it’s sixty percent off whatever you know then you could say no thanks and then maybe you could offer them there’s actually other woodworking so this is like an affiliate funnel like this is a more sophisticated thing that we should all be aspiring to but that would be an example of if you know how the platform works then I know that if I made a specific ad campaign that was just for this keyword and I don’t know how many searches it gets but it would get a better click-through rate which means the platform would give me more priority for less money I’d get a really high opt-in rate which means I build a list for really cheap and then I’d still be getting people who are interested in woodworking and I could try to sell them the affiliate product more but the challenge is that you’d have to provide you know plans for a glider so you have to go find them somewhere you can probably link to a blog or something that has good ones but anyways so some products will give you keywords to test and some of them are going to convert better than others you can use these on landing pages so yeah but even as you go further down if you sort by gravity these products still are probably making millions multiple millions of dollars hundred to gravity ninety-five gravity all these things all these top pages they all convert like crazy if you get the right people to see that page so that’s your challenge anything any product with the gravity higher than like 30 is making tons and tons of money and so there are other factors here too like this product I know for sure so it makes $100 100 $1.00 for sale this is the kind of the same thing as on the CPA networks you have to apply to become an affiliate now what are the qualities for becoming an affiliate it’s different for every offer I used to work for the top product on Clickbank at the time and so but we never we never restricted our offer so it’s weird to me that people on Clickbank are doing this now I kind of I don’t think it’s in the spirit of Clickbank and then Clickbank is made so that anybody can promote these things but people are starting to cherry-pick their affiliates but they’re doing it for the same reasons because you know the problems that we ran into is random spammers would be blasting out emails all over the world and so we were getting all of our domains blacklisted so I understand why they don’t let everybody promote these things but it’s a bummer as an affiliate cuz you’re like just give me a chance I just want to promote the good offers and I totally understand that and you will get there you just have to start making some sales here’s another one my shed plans this one also has a gravity of 55 so let’s say you’ve built a list around each of those little keywords and you just put like really low bids on them and you you know built very specific landing pages so Phillips says I’m in glider bench plans 140 search volume looks like a dollar 20 to recommended cost per click free glider plans 110 search volume 85 cents double glider swing plans 110 89 cents glider chair plans PDF glider chair plans free download free easy breezy glider plans 50 so it looks like it gets a couple hundred searches a month basically and this is the kind of thing where almost certainly you could run this on Google not directly to the product yeah volume and cost per click USA yeah that seems about right but but imagine you’re doing that for every single one of those plans so you’re building out like really high-quality qualified people and then you have an audience that’s like super interested in this now super affiliate system john crostinis i wouldn’t try advertising that right away front end on bing i would probably try advertising this using the product formula so people who are already searching this guy’s name i’ll kind of already know what they’re looking for and then you can you can promote the product itself and not the problem relationship magic okay so all of these still 53 78 i mean they’re still probably making millions i’m guessing anabolic running this one’s really cool because it’s a weird topic what do we have for anabolic running let’s check this out this is the next kind of thing i would i would start doing is looking at keywords just start to feel out what’s going on here like what is this niche i don’t know much about it as an affiliate you’re gonna learn a lot of weird things about people things people are interested in thank you for visiting Dada anabolic running hook build a ripped muscular physique with 16 minutes of anabolic running per week that sounds like a great headline the only scientifically proven email me for ninety percent commission so if you make a bunch of sales I guess you can you can email them we used to do that for affiliates to average per sale $28 if you’d like to add a timer to the page to let me know how to set you up with a custom link so this this company makes me interested just because this person is so willing to work with affiliates anabolic reload so they got some specific products here these might actually be good products to do the product based method because they probably aren’t super competitive I’m guessing very few people have the willingness to go and actually look at all these different products and try to promote them so you got some swipes you can also look at the swipes to see what what how how is this thing sold you know like what these are great things to put on your landing page if you’re doing a pre-sale landing page or you could just literally use these emails if you’re building a list so jacked grandpa reveals muscle building secrets that would be great headline for an ad or a great headline on a pre sell landing page literally you can just copy this stuff and put it on a pre sell landing page and it probably do pretty well so yeah so now let’s look at what kind of we’re gonna do some keyword research now so let’s just pick this this nature I like this niche this is pretty interesting I don’t know much about it but let’s let’s do the next step so we’ve done some we’ve been doing some marketplace research basically we’re looking on Clickbank we’re just kind of seeing which products catch our eye so Carlos says since what gravity is good for choosing a product in your experience in my experience it’s some something above 30 so 30 is like it’s a good product and it will convert if you get the right people to it that isn’t a guarantee so many people get very so frustrated with trying to do traffic because they’re like I spent 30 dollars I didn’t make 10 conversions like well I mean if you run a pay traffic campaign for a long time you know that even on certain days you’ll have higher and lower sales it’s not a guaranteed thing so I hope you guys understand that I think you do but yeah above 30 this probably could be a really good one so let’s do some
