Picking the right ClickBank product to promote can be a hard task. There are so many products in the marketplace to choose from and new products are added on a daily basis. There are a few techniques that I use when picking a product to promote that I believe you will find very valuable.
Number One - When picking a product, try to make sure that there is more than one product in the specific market so that you can have options. For example, if you are going to promote a "how to get rid of acne" ebook, make sure there are multiple products that solve this problem in the marketplace. The reason that this is beneficial is because it allows you to be able to build a list and a site in one market while at the same time being able to see which product will actually make you the most sales.
Number Two - If you find it hard to pick a product to promote, try to go with the product that is popular but not over saturated with affiliates. Most new affiliates think that if there are a lot of other people promoting a specific product, that means that they will make more money with it. But it most cases this is not true. What usually happens is that 20% of the affiliates will make 80% of the sales. You want to be able to have a good chance to be profitable, and you will be able to do so if you stay away from the extremely popular products.
Number Three - Pick products that you can write about and promote without having to do a month of research to get it done. There are a lot of articles floating around the internet that you can tell are clearly written by people that have no real understanding of the product or the market. If you have to do more than a few days of research before promoting a product, it may be better for you to find a market that you are at least familiar with so that you can save time.
If you tie all of these techniques together you will be able to see huge jumps in your affiliate commissions.
