Clickbank Marketing is one of the first ports of call if you are looking for products to sell as an affiliate marketer.
Clickbank marketing is both easy to use and an essential element for successful internet marketing.
Clickbank affiliate marketing is essentially where you would find someone else’s product to promote. Clickbank is the leader for this where you get hop links for products (free).
This affiliate link is unique to you. You would then use this affiliate link to refer other people to purchase THE product. If someone that you referred purchased the product, you would get a cut of the profit.
The great thing about Clickbank is that the top products usually come with a high commision rate. In fact, don’t even bother to look at any under 40%.

Don’t Just rely On Google For Sales
I have a brief report on what Harvey Segal, the master of Clickbank, says about being dependent on Google for your traffic and sales success – CLICK HERE for his ‘It’s Goodbye To Google”

There is an excellent program called Affiliate Elite from Brad Callen that does all this and more for you – but it involves a monthly subscription or an outright purchase – which you might like to take up to save time. His instructions are very actionable.
Understanding Clickbank Stats
The best area to search is “Business to Business” – so choose that category
You’ll notice there are a TON of different products you can promote.
Step 1: Select a category.
Tip: I’ve found that the business to business category tends to sell the best – but try others especially if your niche requires it.
Step 2: Take note of the stats/data below each product. You’ll see something like the following:
$/sale: $30.44 | Future $: – | Total $/sale: $30.44 | %/sale: 75.0% | %refd: 75.0% | grav: 123.91
$/sale is the amount of money that you will make if you promote their product and make a sale. $30.44 is much better than the $5.00 you’d get if you sold some dishes 
Future $ is if the product is a monthly/recurring billing product, like a membership site where their buys would pay them every single month. Those products tend to be good products to promote. In the case above, that is not a recurring/membership style website.
Total $/sale is the amount of money that you would get if you sold their product right now, today. Whereas, the $/sale figure we talked about above is an average amount, including any refunds that customers have done in the past.
%/sale is the commission percentage. So, if the product costs $100, you would get $75 per sale.
%refd is the percentage of sales made of this product that were referred by their affiliates. In the example above, 75% of their product sales were made by their affiliates.
Grav stands for gravity. This is the total number of affiliates that have made 1 or more sales of this product in the past 8 weeks. This number is good to know. You know that over 100 other people have currently told at least 1 copy of this product… so it is possible to sell it as an affiliate.
Focus on Total $/sale, %/sale, and gravity.
It’s good to know roughly how much money you’ll make per sale.
Promote stuff that is 50% or higher in commission percentage. You’ll find that almost every CB product is at least 50%.
And then gravity, which I keep a constant watch over. Gravity is extremely important.
