Picking the right product to promote is essential to succeed with affiliate marketing. There are thousands of internet-marketing products out around, but not all of them will make you money. Some products are horrible and don’t work as promised. Another product might be great, but its landing page is bad so nobody is buying it. To make money as an affiliate marketing, you need to find a product that’s proven to sell well. Why promote something that nobody wants to buy?
To find that right product to promote, we’re going to use the Clickbank affiliate network. While there are many excellent affiliate networks out there, Clickbank is one of the best for those starting out. They have a large selection of affiliate marketing products to sell, they always send your checks on time, and it is easy to get accepted into the network. Unlike other networks that require you to apply to promote specific offers, Clickbank lets you promote all offers on their network immediately.
The first thing to do when choosing a product to promote, is to decide a niche. The best way to do this is to brainstorm on a piece of paper 5-10 niches you think you would be interested in. When creating your site around a product, you will be doing a lot of research and writing about it, so make sure the topics are something you can have fun with.
Once you have your topics, go login to your Clickbank account and visit the Marketplace section. Clickbank has its products separated into categories, so select an appropriate category and perform a search for each of your topics. In the results, you will get a list of products that Clickbank sells that best match your search term. Underneath each product description, you will see a number of different metrics.
The most important thing to look at, is the product’s gravity score. Gravity is a Clickbank formula that tells you how many recent sales affiliates have been making with this product. If many people are making sales with this product then you should have no problems promoting this product as well. As a rule of thumb, try and pick a product with a gravity score over 50. The other thing to look at is the dollars per sale. If you are going to use PPC marketing to promote your product, then pick a payout greater than $30 per sale. By choosing a high enough payout, you can cover any advertising expenses and make a good profit.
Using the two metrics talked about above, jot down the products that meet these criteria. Now pick the one that you would be most interested in researching about and selling. You already can tell that other affiliates are having success making money with these products, so the key here is picking the product that will keep your interest so you can promote it successfully. This is the first step to becoming a successful affiliate marketer.
