You know what is funny? Right now as I go to WA to get the info for my site, some of it has changed. The ENTIRE site has been wiped out and replaced. I guess WA DELETED it or domain shield did. I do not have ANY of my products on it. It was not even a valid link the last time I went to open it. Now it DOES open and shows a damn flower pot. It shows WA servers holding it again at the WA site which I changed several times to the BLUE HOST servers and Enom told them to LEAVE alone and in 10 days they would automatically lock in or something of the sort but of course that did not work either.

First of all, I’m not saying you MUST host your website at ClickBank. But if you’ve started building website using their Builder tool, it’s hard for you to move it somewhere else, not because they hold “hostage” to your website. It’s because the contents are built in such a way that it can only be shown properly using their Builder. When you move your website to somewhere else, you have to spend a lot of time re-doing all the content to make it look visually appealing. You get my point here? This is just like many other content/page builders. Once you stop using the plugin, your content is no longer readable.
Both of these trainings are given by gurus who have sold products worth thousands, maybe millions of dollars on Clickbank. But I guess once you become a veteran you become more of a resource for intermediates and less for beginners. That’s why vendors will really appreciate this course as they’ll be able to acquire lots of insider skills and knowledge. This course is also given on a weekly step-by-step basis through videos and “carry home” PDFs.
I purchased Clickbank Builder, unfortunately, a while back ago. They promised that certain templates for different niches were “coming soon” and that you could build “unlimited membership sites. They added only about 1 or 2 new templates in the past 240 days since I purchased it and there is no way to build a membership site. Since I am passed 30 days, they won’t refund me, nor have they directly answered my statement about not delivering on a product they are marketing. Scandalous!
I DO know Wealthy Affiliates first-hand as I WAS a member for 1 year. I used 3 websites through them and I was successful BEHIND the scenes with networking and connecting with people but there I did not get the help I needed or wanted. It wasn’t like I did not reach out to others either but the worst part of being there is right now over a year later.
^{I came across this ClickBank university, recently during the summer of 2017. I am not sure if it was the updated version but, I am glad you reviewed this product. I almost signed up with them, thinking that they would actually provided answers to building a business. For some reason, I changed my mind. Probably because, I knew it had a catch to it somewhere. And, after reading this article. I can clearly see why I did not sign up.}
Clickbank University (CBU) has some pretty good affiliate training, but not my #1 choice. I’ve been doing this stuff for almost a decade now. If you want to be an affiliate and build affiliate websites, then you are better off learning about that stuff from this affiliate training center. They’ve been around for 15 years, and have produced thousands of success stories (some of which I’ve personally mentored, since 2012).
3) For the bank account, I don’t think it’s necessary to set up a business account or something. I’m not really familiar with the banking system and the rule just yet. But a lot of my friends are doing well with normal bank accounts if I’m not wrong. Anyway, most of the time, your affiliate commission will be paid to your PayPal account first. After that, you can then transfer it to your own bank account if you need the money.
Wealthy Affiliate never lock any website. As long as you have purchased your own domain name, it’s yours 100%. For hosting, WA doesn’t charge any additional charge for web hosting. It’s included in the membership price which I mentioned earlier on. If you’re referring to the domain name, one domain name costs around $14 to $16 per year. So I really don’t know what’s the expensive hosting you’re talking about.

If you want to sell your own digital products, CBU is a great choice, but I don’t recommend you purchase everything Clickbank wants you to buy. As is typical of this type of company, they start you off with one product, then continually add things during the “upsell” process, so your final price becomes way higher than you expected. Keep reading for details on what to NOT buy from them if you go with CBU.

I have to say that they have covered pretty much everything that you should know as an affiliate. They call it an 8-week program but it will take more than 3 weeks because the videos are 5 – 15 min long and very accurate and to the point. But do not rush the horse and take your time in completing this training. Go through each video and take notes.

Like I already mentioned, this program comes with a detailed walkthrough for educating newbies about clickbank marketing and affiliate marketing. It includes 8-week training program on affiliate marketing, a 12-week training program for vendors, live weekly sessions with founders, a private support group on facebook, the clickbank builder and the clickbank builder toolkit.
I was also a full-time procrastinator just like you but one day I finally thought that I have to do something now. Starting out something is the worst part. Some days were good, some were bad. But at last, you will learn something. Now I am earning a full-time income just as an affiliate. Things will take time my friend but firstly you have to take action.
This is a new product that you will learn of after you join CBU training. It’s a professional drag-and-drop tool for creating landing pages, websites and offer pages. The catch 22 with this tool is it costs a hefty $594. You can pay this in two installments of $297 and since it comes with advantages such as ability to integrate with ClickBank you may consider purchasing it.
