ClickBank Affiliates Are Losers by Default - Part Two
So after you cloak your Hoplinks and pray that cookies work properly
, then comes the vendors' outright cheating. The first type of vendors' fraud is about presenting other payment options such as PayPal, 2CheckOut, or even their own merchant account. You should understand at this point that ClickBank commissions are earned ONLY if customers pay via ClickBank. If they choose to pay via any other ways, affiliates don't get anything. Vendors can do introduce other payment gateways either on the same "order page," or more intricately, on a more popular page. For example, a vendor can set up their sales page for ClickBank affiliates on a special URL that is not even listed in any search engines, like "http://www.vendor-site.com/click-bank-only.html." In the mean time, the main page of that site, [http://www.vendor-site.com/index.html], which is listed in search engines and more easily accessible, accepts only other non-ClickBank payment methods. Now, how often does a typical visitor decide to buy right away on the first visit? Not very often. They are more likely to buy on subsequent visits, more likely from the main page instead of the unpopular page for hoplinks.
The other type of vendors' fraud is their use of weird methods to navigate around their sites, like re-direct script, cloaking scripts, frames, etc. which causes ClickBank to lose track of affiliate ID. I have tested several of such vendors, where my affiliate ID never showed up at ClickBank check-out page (it's always [Affiliate = none]). If you ask the vendor or ClickBank representatives, of course what you're told will just be something like "credits are properly applied, regardless of whether your affiliate ID shows up or not..." In other words, they will just tell you "Have faith in our system!" Well, can you? I just can't.
Even if a vendor doesn't deliberately cheat on their ClickBank affiliates, a "follow-up" system will practically strip away your commissions as a ClickBank affiliate. How does it happen? Let me give an example. You send traffic via hoplink to a vendor, who has an outstanding opt-in form that attract visitors to sign up. Whether in opt-in form promises free products or more information, most visitors tend to sign up the list instead of diving into buying right away. Now, a large portion of these visitors eventually buy the product that you sent traffic for, but this time, it's extremely unlikely that ClickBank can credit your affiliate account with the commissions! Why? In theory, ClickBank's cookies can stay in the visitor's computer for like 30 or 60 days. So you may still get your commissions IF the customer use the same browser, never clear cookies, and never click on another hoplink for the same product. This is tough! Let's say, if you're lucky enough that the visitor uses the same browser with cookies intact, the vendor can just send an email to that visitor with his own hoplink (of course cloaked under some nice URL). Once the visitor click on this new hoplink to buy the product, commissions will go to somebody else's (associated with the vendor, or the vendor itself).
Things get even more intricate, where most ClickBank vendors don't just sell one product. While your affiliate traffic via hoplinks is meant for one specific product, the vendor can actually presents "upsell" or "one-time" offers, which may accept other non-ClickBank payment methods. This is completely legal. Many of them even use your traffic to promote other advertising programs such as Google AdSense or their other non-ClickBank products. As a matter of fact, many vendors take advantage of ClickBank traffic to mainly profit from other venues. Why not? So even when ClickBank refunds customers, while commissions are subtracted from the affiliate's account, the vendor can still gain a lot out of the free traffic.
Why does it matter to affiliates? Because traffic is costly. If you use Pay-Per-Click advertising like Google AdWords, once you pay for the service, you'll never get your money back. But as a ClickBank affiliate, your commissions can be deducted out of your account once the custom
