Clickbank affiliates are advertised as making extra money from the programs offered by member sites. The member sites will allow affiliates to make profits from their products just for referring traffic to the site. The affiliates are asked to place a banner or link on their website that will direct traffic to the member site and for each click or click that leads to a purchase they will receive a commission. It seems almost too easy and many people will scare away from it. You can earn money as an affiliate but the only way to earn any real cash that amounts to anything is to be a super affiliate.
The only way to earn money as an affiliate on clickbank is to understand how it works. The members are offering the affiliates a payout for each time a user clicks a banner or link placed on their site that leads back to the members site or for clicks that lead in a purchase from the embers site. The majority of member sites know they will not have a huge increase in their traffic from the affiliate and expect to have a very small amount of money actually paid out. The main purpose of having an affiliate or many affiliates is to increase the page rank in the search engines for the member sites. The backlinks that are placed on the affiliates sites are used in rating the website PR, the higher the PR the more traffic will be generated naturally to the site and the more backlinks the site has the higher the PR will be, so really the only thing a member site needs from you is for you to place that link on your site.
The only way for an affiliate to earn any real money by placing these banners or links on their webpage is to ensure that the traffic is generated to the member site and that it is the right traffic.
Think about the type of traffic that is already being generated to your own website. If you have optimized your page to a targeted audience then it is natural that you would want to find member sites that were as closely matched to your own site as possible.
If you have a website that offers information on pet car then a member site that offers pet products, pet toys, and pet classified, or pet medication should be the primary targets for your affiliations. If the audience you have on your site is not interested enough to click thru to the member site and ultimately make a purchase then the member site does not have to pay you anything for placing that link or banner on your site and they get all the benefit of having a well promoted website.
