1. Find and Selecting a Suitable Product

You can search for a product at the clickbank marketplace where several thousand vendors display their products in an organized directory. When you searched the product, you shall look into following these criteria,

a) Is it the right product to promote - look at the product price and commission rates first to see whether the product that you aim for that offers a reasonable rate of commission or not. To make your efforts worthwhile, the commission rate offer has to be at least 50 percent otherwise it will not worth your time to promote it. Be aware that clickbank deducts transaction fees from a sale as well.

b) Is it an in-demand item - the marketplace listings are ranked by popularity, so you can see clearly which are the in-demand items and products. Popularity is determined by a number of factors, the main factor is the amount of sales and the number of affiliates who are making the sales over the last 8 weeks.

c) How effective is the sales page - visit the sales page of an item or a product to study and confirm that the sales copy does a good job of selling the product.

Check Out Vendor's Affiliate Support

The vendor should provide you with much more than just a link to join the affiliate program. So the first thing you want to do is to check out whether there any useful promotional material (e.g. sample ads, articles, solo mailings, endorsement/reviews, signatures) on vendor's sales page or not. Ideally there will be an affiliate mailing list so that the vendor can convey useful news and send it to you. You want to work with someone reliable who won't disband a program or make rule changes without telling you.

If you want to know how responsive the vendor is, you can send a short email with a simple inquiry to find out.

2. Look for Sales Page "Leaks"

As an affiliate you want your visitor to read through the sales page and hit that order button with you getting credit for the sale. Well, the true fact is that a sale doesn't really happen that easy, here are the reasons of why:

a) There is an overt link to an affiliate sign up page, which could give your potential customer a chance to simply become an affiliate and purchase the product himself.

b) The vendor offers multiple payment options so if clickbank is not the one got chosen, and then you do not get the commission.
