ClickBank has long been one of the most popular digital commerce and marketing platforms on the web. Thousands of affiliates rely on them to find high quality information-products that they can promote to earn great commissions. ClickBank has just launched the latest update to their services, calling it ClickBank 3.0. The new launch includes many great new features, which are designed to help affiliates boost sales, increase revenues and generally improve their overall experience.
In addition to the extra features, ClickBank has also updated the look and feel of their site and overall online experience. The new layout, they hope, will be easier to navigate, and find what types of things people are looking for.
The most important part of the ClickBank 3.0 upgrade, however, is the many new features which are now available to affiliate marketers and brands. They include:
- The Affiliate Finder – Online merchants can use the affiliate finder to quickly be the right affiliates to promote their products. Matching up affiliates with merchants based on skills and experience will help to drive more sales, which is good for both the merchant, and the affiliate.
- Subscription Management System – The new subscription management system allows merchants to create more flexible and versatile subscription services. This will help to attract not only new customers, but also new affiliates, who often prefer the subscription products because of the recurring affiliate commission options.
- Advanced Custom Order Form – Order forms can now be customized based on the specific wants and needs of a brand or affiliate. This new form helps to keep a consistent look and feel throughout the customer experience, which should lead to higher conversion rates.
- Automatic Upsell – Clickbank can now offer additional digital products to customer when they are checking out. This automatic upsell has the potential to dramatically increase the total sale price, which will result in higher commissions.
How effective these new services will be has yet to be seen, but it appears that they will be very helpful for both the affiliate marketers, and the brands themselves.
Matt Hulett, the CEO of ClickBank, said, “The launch of ClickBank 3.0 combined with Pytch, our mobile offering, is in direct response to the feedback we’ve heard from our online merchants as well as their customers. And the timing is perfect as the independent workforce is expected to rise over the next five years as more people aim to increase their personal success.”
While it is too early to tell exactly how effective these updates will be, they appear to be great improvements so far. Have you used any of the recently launched services from ClickBank yet? If so, comment below with your thoughts.
