Affiliate Dogma : Affiliates -> Sales -> Profits

Is ClickBank Irrelevant for UK affiliates?

First - what is ClickBank?

Clickbank is a marketplace for virtual goods. The ebooks and software are marketed by high commissions (usually over 50% affiliate commission) but has attracted alot of rubbish. Recycled PLRs, resell right ebooks, affiliate systems, getrich systems and so on.

Infact there is a high proportion of self serving affiliate programs on clickbank - things like the CB Affiliate Formula that tells you how the author mad $52,000 dollars in Clickbank commissions in 4 weeks. Most of these have the long sales letter that seems to actually work (in the USA, 10 years ago?) and have screen shots of fantastic clickbank earnings.

There is actually some good stuff on the ‘network’ but it takes a long time to plough through the dross.

My motives for this post is to actually get an idea if it has ever actually really worked for anyone, especially in sales to the UK within the last year.

Yes I have an account  and yes I have tried to push some products, but have actually found better results selling ‘real’ products through affiliate networks like Affiliate Future, Affiliate Window, Online Media Group, Paid On Results et al.
