The first thing to understand is how Clickbank works and what it takes to make it good on probably the best affiliate marketing network on the planet. From the perspective of the potential affiliate let's just explain by saying an affiliate is one who promotes and markets the products and services of an advertiser for a small percentage of the sale price or a commission.
Say Andy is selling ebooks on how to make a profitable e-commerce website. He is an expert programmer and knows how to create a website using open source programs and tools. He writes a book for absolute dummies and decides to sell it online. He finds an interesting online marketing program on Clickbank and registers and then lists his book for sell to attract potential affiliates.
He also decides to give away 10% from the sale price of the book to any affiliate who can secure a sale. Potential registered affiliates will check Clickbank and if anybody likes the topic and finds it has a market and has a potential traffic that might be interested in this will download the relevant tags and tools and get started in promoting it.
Any potential customer who is interested after checking the details on the website of the affiliate would come to the advertiser's websites that is Andy's website and purchase the same. Clickbank will register that one sale has been made from the traffic send out by the affiliate, say George, and give him the credit for the same.
Well this is almost the simplest way to explain how Clickbank works, although there are a few things to know and get used to in order to really make it work for you.
Clickbank can be complicated, time consuming and downright difficult at times to make it work. The reasons are there is no clear cut formula to online marketing. The same way as a traditional media would behave Clickbank which is a part of the internet media also behaves the same way.
Even after writing a great sales pitch, creating a great product you may find that sales are sluggish. Add to this the trouble taken to understand how Clickbank affiliate system works and the tests and trials and other research that you put yourself through in order to get started. Everything seemingly pointless if no sales happen.
One of the key aspects to succeed in online marketing and also applicable for Clickbank marketing is patience. It is important to have done all the necessary home work though, that is checking that the advertising materials are right, the placements are correct, and also the choice of the program is also correct. The next thing is holding your patience and waiting for the fly to move.
For both the advertiser and the affiliate this is important. For the advertiser he might find himself in a situation that there are no takers for his program and seemingly all his hard work in preparing the program might appear a waste. Similarly it might appear to the affiliate that his important advertising properties are getting wasted due to no conversions.
