Click
Bank Versus Affiliate
Management Scripts
The
most important factor when you decide to launch your product
is whether you want to use a third party hosted affiliate
management service or an affiliate management script which
is hosted on your own website so you will need to decide
which one best suits your needs.
The
most popular third party hosted affiliate management service
is called Click Bank because of many reasons, the most important
of which is that it attracts a huge amount of affiliate
marketers who are looking for products to promote on their
websites and to their opt in lists.
This
is a major factor when deciding how to launch your product
because when you start generating sales you will appear
in the marketplace where the pages are ranked by popularity
using the current statistics for the most recent pay period
of 16 days and the most popular products are placed at the
top.
The
more sales that you generate the higher up the pages you
will rank and this in turn attracts more and more affiliates
who are looking for the latest hot product to promote. By
appearing on the first page of a certain category you can
literally attract an army of affiliates with little or no
effort on your part.
Although
Click Bank has relatively high processing fees and doesn't
provide many of the great features that affiliate management
scripts do such as the names and email addresses of your
affiliates and detailed statistics you should still consider
using it because of the amount of affiliates you can attract
to promote your product.
One
major advantage of using an affiliate management script
such as JV Manager is that all of the affiliate links will
point to your website instead of a third party and this
is extremely beneficial for building link popularity in
order to rank high in the search engine results pages.
Another
advantage is that affiliates will have to join your affiliate
program by creating an account on your website so you will
know exactly who is promoting your product and how many
sales they have generated. This is extremely useful if you
want to contact affiliates who are generating a lot of sales
and tell them about a new product you are releasing and
its also good for contacting inactive affiliates to encourage
them to start advertising.
Its
important to weigh up the pros and cons before you decide
whether to use Click Bank or an affiliate management script
to run your affiliate program and you can always test each
one out to see if its right for you.
