You can use this skill to help other businesses drive customers to their business. It’s kind of like affiliate marketing, but is often a lot more hands-off and easier to manage. Even though I didn’t want to really create my own products, the information in the vendor section covering ad copy and sales video was critical to becoming a proficient lead generation specialist.
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.
If you have heard about ClickBank University and are wondering what it is all about, then you are already on the right track. “Clickbank” is one of the largest and most popular affiliate networks. Firstly I suggest that you join Clickbank if you haven’t already, because it’s totally free. But Clickbank University is not free, it is a training community that helps you to achieve success as a vendor and/or affiliate.
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.
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.
Well, what I liked most about this training is the detailing they have given in their videos. They are just to the point. The vendor and affiliate sections are both so perfectly created and are very beginner-friendly. The product creation, graphic creation, and email marketing sections are so perfectly inlined and very easy to grasp. The last traffic module will help you to understand the basics of traffic generation that will help you in growing any business. The avatar creation part in the course where they teach you about finding your right audience is the core element of any business that everyone should have to learn.
First of all, I have been with WA for years and I’am getting good results. So you definitely have no rights to say that I’m misinformed or anything like that. Just because you had some problems for your site in WA, it doesn’t mean WA has the full responsibility for it. I’ll explain later. But to be honest, I must say you’re the one that’s misinformed.
Email them and ask if they'll promote it. You'll be surprised! It does help if they know who you are first, but this is easy enough to do. Follow them online, Re-Tweet their stuff, comment on their FB and Twitter posts and add VALUE. Once you've done this for a week or two and they know you a bit, it's much easier to get them to promote for you! 🙂
Sadly, it has and still IS going on. When I finally decided to leave WA and not renew at the roughly $400 gold member membership price, WA changed the websites email holder to no longer for example to be mike@lovelightsllc.com but to mike@domainshield.com. I have had several agencies contact the owners of WA to rectify this plan and I have even been emailed directly saying that they have “fixed the problem”.
My #1 Tip, no matter WHAT you do online, CBU or otherwise: Stick with it, don't just jump around from one method to another if you don't find success right away. It took me a good YEAR to get my first Affiliate sale, but I also wasn't following any particular training, and was just jumping around from method to method....so I do have a bit of experience there and know what i'm talking about. :-)
Summary: ClickBank University 2.0 has a solid course with useful tools to help people create their own digital products, market it on ClickBank and make money. They also have a set of course to guide people in affiliate marketing but the information is limited and outdated. In addition, CBU has a high-ticket upsell which they did not reveal to you upfront. So, take note of that!
