Clickbank Internet Marketing: Is It All Fate?

My product launch career began in December of 2008 when I launched three websites of my own.

> Maverick Money Makers Club
> Project Quick Cash
> PPC Bully

All three were review sites, and but not all three have shared the same fate.

My Clickbank Winner

My Maverick Money Makers review site is by far the most successful. It was a white-hot product on the way up, and as a $100/month membership site with great training content also updated monthly, it shot to the top of Clickbank. It has a Clickbank gravity of almost 800, which is in the stratosphere.

I also through a lot of linking efforts behind Maverick Money Makers from the very beginning, and it now has hundreds of links that help maintain its position  in the Google “Top 10″ for several of my major keywords. My visitor has increased steadily across three month,  from an average of 50/day in January, 100/day in February, and now 150/day in March. Nothing earthshaking, but very steady and reassuring for my efforts.

It is the poster child for what TO do, and has provided a lot of motivation, as well as cash.

My Two Poor Clickbank Losers

The Project Quick Cash and PPC Bully review sites seemed almost doomed before they started.

I did not realize when I began promoting it that Project Quick Cash was actually a re-release of a 2007 product, and as such on its last legs. It was not “new” anymore, and not being searched for … (so no organic traffic to speak of|and if no one is searching, you don’t exist|so there was no traffic to be had, really, through Google}.

PPC Bully

PPC Bully seemed like a winner, with its ability to “steal” your competitors PPC campaigns, and it is a very effective spy tool … but it offered limited training early on, and seemed a bit like a one trick pony.

Both of them had the unfortunate bad luck to be located on  a part of my server that went whacky just before I underwent some surgery, and so they sat there, with all my initial promotion and links getting ignored, because Google and other bots arrived to a blank page (when I thought they both were up and running.)

Two weeks later, back from surgery, I realized too late what had happened, but by then both had been give the thumbs-down by Google, and I don’t know if they can ever be revived.

It is unfortunate because both a great programs. PPC Bully has increasing competition in the PPC spy tool field, but just released a new piece of software that should add to its value.

Project Quick Cash

Project Quick Cash offered 5 great approaches, and also a wonderful little back-end tool that allowed you to grab traffic surges as it moves through the internet each day, and to cash in on it with (PPC|pay per click} and other techniques. I still use the tool daily, and it is too bad it was not offered as a separate program.

It made using PPC easy for the average person, and is still a useful approach.

I DO know I learned a few things.

1. Regular monitoring of websites is a “must do.”

2. Regular linking efforts, even of the unpaid kind, pay off.

3. Choice of Clickbank programs matters. While not pure science, products with rising gravity above 70, recurring membership, and a high sales price all make for a very attractive affiliate program.

Maybe you can avoid the mistakes I made when I started!
