Clickbank Market Research:what people want from Clickbank and how to make $$$ with this knowledge

This research has much info and screenshots inside and, obviously, it will take some time to read it all. But, if you are really interested to make good money on Clickbank – then please read it till the bottom.
No matter if you are a Clickbank affiliate, or inventor of Clickbank tools/scripts/software, or if you are a vendor on Clickbank – this research will help you to navigate your business on the Clickbank market.

1. Clickbank and Alternatives/Competitors

The rising search trend for ‘Clickbank’ and the declining search trends for ‘Commission Junction’ and ‘Linkshare’ (the most famous alternatives of Clickbank) vividly explain the status of things on the market – Clickbank has won the battle, most of the market comes to them.
But, that doesn’t mean that the game is over. If you look on the search trends of ‘Commission Junction’ and ‘Linkshare’, you will see that their search trends have almost stopped to fall. The process of declining goes on, but very-very slowly. I can assume that we can talk about a certain level where they will stop dropping. A level where the alternatives of Clickbank can nicely harvest the money. And though this money will not be as big as CB has, but this is still “enough” – so, if you are launching a CB alternative, don’t give up, there is enough food on the plate for you.

2. Clickbank is about Money, Money, MONEY!!

When you are checking search demand for Clickbank, you instantly see that the rising related searches about about money: how to make money with Clickbank, making money with Clickbank, etc.
The “money making” element is a vital part of Clickbank culture. That is why products that explain how to make $$$ and how to make $$$ with Clickbank are in high demand.
And now look what countries are the top “demanders” of info about how to make money with CB …

… India, USA, Canada, UK and Australia – these are highly paying markets, and they are ready to spend their money.
Keep this info in mind when you are creating a new product for Clickbank
No wonder that when you get to Clickbank market place and sort all the products to show at the top the most successful products (with highest CB gravity) – you will see money making products like this one at the top of the list. So, the search trends coincide with what is sold best of all on CB.
And a final example of money making products to dominate Clickbank – when you type ‘clickbank’ into Google, it starts showing you different suggestions. And in that suggestions I saw only 2 products. These products…

… and if you check both Clickbank Pirate and Clickbank Wealth Formula – you will see that they are playing with a big dollar of “making money with Clickbank” (I am not giving a link to Clickbank Wealth Formula, because when I click to pay on their official site, I get to the page saying “This product is no longer for sale or has been disabled due to a terms of service violation” – looks like the guys have problems with CB at the moment, but no matter what – 2 money making products make top of the list with Google suggestions and it speaks for itself).

3. Clickbank is SCAM? OMG!!

The trend for the keyword ‘Clickbank scam’ is rising. What is the reason for it? Does it mean that CB is a scam?
My personal explanation is the following: lots of products on Clickbank, in all sorts of niches. Definitely not all products can be good. Obviously some products are just a lovely looking junk. So – people want to know what they are buying.
And this opens a huge niche for the creators of product reviews. All you need is to choose a rising product, put up a nice review of it, then push this web page for keyword ‘product name + clickbank scam‘ – and you are monetizing the fear market.
But when doing it, please remember that you will build up your reputation of a reviewer only if you tell the truth. Always remember that in your hunt for a big dollar.

4. Clickbank Keywords Needed…

This niche was a discovery during the research. The demand for it isn’t high yet, so this is not something where you can make tons of $$$ quickly. But you can see the evident growth of demand.
My personal investigation of CB marketplace for the products in this niche show that nearly NO ONE is monetizing it! Surely CB has lots of keyword solutions like Micro Niche Finder, but these solutions don’t focus their attention on Clickbank, they help you with keywords in general.
The only 2 products that are more-or-less related to this topic are CB Cash Clouds and CB Elite. However with my due respect to the products, I do not think that they represent the idea of the niche I am talking about. CB Cash Clouds helps to automate the creation of tag clouds and putting of your affiliate links there (which is great, but not the niche I mean). And CB Elite helps to find products based on research and put all data (like gravity, commissions level, etc.) into one form – but this is not the niche that I mean.
This is what people need…

… and if you go through this list attentively and then will check CB marketplace – you will see that this niche is VACANT. That is why if you have great ideas for this niche and have enough “guts” to create a product on it, then you will be the first to monetize it.

5. Clickbank Scripts, Software, Programs – Tough Case

When writing “tough case” in the headline of this section, I meant the following…
As you can see yourself from the search trend, the demand is not growing – it is stable.
Having stable demand is great, but if you take into account that more and more CB scripts, programs, software and tools are being created, then it becomes obvious that competition grows as well. And demand isn’t growing.
Of course, a great idea implemented into a great script/software/program will find its place under the sun. But keep in mind that just creating a script will not open a treasure box for you. Based on the results of this research I can say that this script should be about making money (you saw how huge the demand is for this niche), or it must help people about rising niches (for example, the keyword niche).

6. We Want It FREE!

One of the things I could not fail to mention in the research is the rising trend for FREE stuff in Clickbank. As you can see, the demand is increasing, slowly but in a very stable way.
And a quick look on the Google suggestions about ‘free clickbank’ clarifies what exactly they want to be free…

This information nicely matches up to the previous section about scripts, software and programs.
Whereas the niche of Clickbank scripts, software and programs does not grow in demand, the sub-niches of free scripts, free software and free programs are growing. So, if you are thinking about creating and selling CB scripts/software, then please think over the possibility of a free version. This can be a smart marketing move for your product.

7. Clickbank Affiliate Marketing – Don’t Hurry Up…

By saying “don’t hurry up” I meant the same thing as with the niche of CB scripts, software and programs.
The search demand is big, but it has stabilized. And tons of products already created in this niche. Which, logically, drives to the conclusion that this niche is over-saturated and competition on it is very tough.
But if you want to stick to this niche, then you need to go to sub-niches. I did a quick research for “clickbank affiliate” in CB marketplace and saw that top products are going into the sub-niches. For example, this product helps to create sites for affiliates with ads from CB, eBay, Amazon – the niche of turnkey sites for affiliates. Or this product which is positioning itself as a management system used by lots of CB affiliates.
They are making sales. Learn from them. This is how you can go into sub-niches and succeed in a super competitive CB affiliate marketing niche.

8. “Helping Hand” Products and SEO in Clickbank

By “helping hand” products in this research I called everything that helps people in the routine of CB pages/sites creation like templates, layouts, landing pages, etc.
The real surprised (and I swear I did not plan it) was the fact that Clickank SEO is increasing in its demand. Currently we can’t speak of any huge jumps in the demand, but if you look at the screenshot above, you will see that Clickbank SEO has nearly reached the level of Clickbank sites’ creation. And it is one of the few trends that keep adding to their power.
For all those who are running SEO services – this is great news, because you don’t need to invent anything new. SEO for Clickbank site is the same as SEO for any other site
