Clickbank is the largest distributor of digital products in the world. People who want to become internet marketers will find it very difficult to successfully do affiliate marketing without dealing with Clickbank. As affiliate marketers, there is always this big obstacle of knowing exactly how to choose a good Clickbank product to promote.

Everywhere on the internet, you'll find different tips and hints to help affiliates marketers in choosing the right Clickbank products that will be profitable for them to promote. Most of these tips will advise affiliates to have a look at the following 7 variables:

1- The Earned per sale (in USD)
2- The Earned per sale (%)
3- The referred (%)
4- The gravity
5- The refund rate (%)
6- The product rank
7- The commission ( %)

Except for the refund rate, which should be close to zero for a product to be worth promoting, all other variables need to be as high as possible. People will usually have different important variables they consider when choosing Clickbank product to promote. But generally, most people usually take a close look at the gravity, which tells you how many distinct affiliates recently earned a commission from that product. This simply means that the higher the gravity for a given product, the higher are your chances of making money promoting it.

While all the above information is vital to consider when choosing a good Clickbank product to promote, there is this one issue that many people, especially the new comers in affiliate marketing usually neglect. If you want to succeed with affiliate marketing, never you try to sell products to other Clickbank affiliates! What do I mean with this? I simply mean that you should not promote products that will be interesting to people who know much about the Clickbank affiliate program.

The reason being that, other affiliates will never buy products through your affiliate link. Instead they will replace your Clickbank nick name with theirs so they earn the commission on that sale. You will soon notice that you are never making any sales because those who are buying the products you are promoting, are affiliates like you. They know exactly how Clickbank functions and they will prefer to get the commissions without considering the fact that you paid for the traffic. This is known as "The hijacking of affiliate links". I’ve read a number of articles on how to choose good Clickbank products to promote, but I've never read about this tip anywhere on the internet. I found out by myself, and this is the bitter truth. Don’t try to sell Clickbank products to Clickbank affiliates.

Good examples of this type of products are money making products for intermediate or advanced internet marketers. Take for example that there is a new affiliate marketing e-book that has been released at Clickbank that claims to teach affiliate marketers how to effectively manage their business. Who do you think will be most interested in buying such an e-book? Of course they are affiliates like you. And they know exactly how the process works at Clickbank. They know that buying any item through your affiliate link will earn you a commission, so they will prefer to hijack the commissions. That is why Many people who do AdWords usually get 1000 clicks on their AdWords ads, but make zero sales!

It is true that money making products are the hottest in the market right now, but if you are a beginner in affiliate marketing, shy away from such products. It is better to start marketing products from other niches or industries such as health, computer software, women seduction, people search and others. Knowing how to choose a good Clickbank product to promote is a vital asset if you want to make money from the internet. With this simple tip, I guarantee you that you will be ahead of your Clickbank competitors when it comes to choosing good Clickbank products to promote. And I assure you it makes a big difference.
