subject: Can You Be Scammed On Clickbank? The Shocking Answer! [print this page] In the non-internet world, retailers are always fighting a war with shoplifters and people who would take your product without paying for it. You would think that this kind of thing would not be a problem in an online world. But, in ClickBank, which is the largest internet marketplace in the world, one of the biggest problems is stopping people from downloading a digital product and then not proceeding with the payment.
Like any other retail setting, there are security weaknesses in ClickBank as there are with any software environment. But, with some proper caution on the part of the vendor at the individual level, you can find ways to plug those security holes and keep your product secure so every time it gets downloaded, you get paid.
What is the worst mistake here?
In reality, we are our own worst enemies because we do some things that undermine the security. The first thing to recognize when you market using digital market place is the ability to list your products on your own ClickBank's page.
It would be a false strategy to drive traffic to your ClickBank's page in the hope to make sales there. If you like to get your money for the products sold, then you should deliver the products once the payment process has been successfully terminated. To this goal, the best to do is to let the payment transactions done via ClickBank itself instead of your own page.
This trick seems to be a trivial one, but it can save you $1000s. You, as a merchant, will be charged $50 to enjoy the features of ClickBank. So, make the best use of your money and let this digital market place secure your payments.
Why should you avoid doing so?
Another good reason not to put links to your product on your web site is that it will cause this back door to your products to appear on the search engines as links that others can use. Google will find the links, index them, and they could appear fairly high in search engine rankings and that is very dangerous for the security of your product.
So, what should be your plan now?
First, make an account at www.clickbank.com. Then, list your product there in front of the affiliates after paying the start-up fee of $50. Then, to promote your product on your own, you should setup a new blog.
To offer your blog a better visibility, you should learn search engine optimization. In a nutshell, the best to do is to enrich your blog with useful content and build back links to it. Once you are done, it is the time to insert your affiliate links. Here, you should never forget to let the payment done via ClickBank secure forum so that you cannot loose your money.
