If you enter those 2 words into a Google search box you will find quite a number of returns. Thus we need to ask ourselves if ClickBank is nothing more than a scam.

*** ClickBank Scam ***

It's amusing to me how people will rant and rave at a service that they have not profited from. It is like they are saying, I haven't made any money from ClickBank, and therefore there must be something wrong with ClickBank.

The problem certainly couldn't be in the way that they market their ClickBank wares. Instead of taking time to build a blog/website or even following a simple ad submission process on a service like USFreeAds, they declare I joined and I told one person about them but I haven't made any money.

Don't get me wrong; there are things I don't like about ClickBank. Probably the biggest is their policy of needing a certain number of transactions before they can start sending you payments. However, just because I don't like a particular policy does not mean that ClickBank is a scam in and of itself.

*** How ClickBank Can Feel Like A Scam ***

Okay, so what's the bigger problem if it's not ClickBank?

That's an easy question.

From what I can tell ClickBank appears relatively lax in what information they allow to be distributed through their network. The end result finds you recommending less than desirable products if you are not careful by researching the information out yourself before choosing to put your marketing power behind it.

In such a case, you have not found a reason why ClickBank is a scam.

Fact is, you haven't even found reason to point a finger of shame at the vendor who created the item you were marketing before the sky fell. Yes, it's true that they should not be promoting false information on the market. However, if you haven't taken the time to research the product you were promoting then a great deal (like 99%) of the fault resides right at your own door. If you did not take the time to research the product you chose to promote before you chose to promote it then that is something you need to correct in yourself before moving to the next product.

Therefore next time your ready to wave a finger of anger at the ClickBank scam, first make sure that you have done everything required to succeed with what you choose to market from Clickbank.
