Are you getting anywhere yet? Any progress?
I would like to know. Making the first dollar online is the hardest one most of the times with most people.
I suggest, go over to CB, have a look at what products you would like to promote.
Then, important step two:
Go over to Google, check out the competition on the keywords related to the product you want or are planning to sell
If the amount is below lets say 1 million web sites you might be on to something. While you are on Google, check if there are Adwords ads. Are there? Good! Cause, these are the ads from people who ALREADY are making money. Why else place Adwords ads?
Then, you will need to get a web site. You can go and get a free blog at blogger.com and wordpress.com or squidoo.com (which all are extemely helpful and effective tools to make money with clickbank!! So, get one of each!))
Get your affiliate links from Clickbank and start writing about the product while including links to your affiliate link (<a href="yourclickbankid.hop.clickbank.net">Your Anchor Link</a> ) and write a few articles of about 800 to 1000 words.
Claim your blogs and post those articles to your blogs.
Bookmark the posts on the blogs on Digg,Propeller,Simpy and several other bookmarking sites you can find.
You, should then within moments after start to see people coming to your blogs. If you did your job as a marketer properly, you have just created yourself a serious chance on making money with Clickbank.
Better version of this all is to do all the above BUT: Add your own domain and website to this all. So, claim a domain related to the keywords, install Wordpress, and voila, you have just created your first money making website.
Actually, right now I am working on a product that describes how to do all of the above. And, I am nearly finished with writing my free report (54+ Pages)
It is free, and will get you going with Clickbank AND Adsense as well. If anybody is interested in this free eBook written by yours truly, please, just let me know!
I hope this helped a bit,
Thanks,
Walt
