I have few doubts when it comes to launching via clickbank.


#How long does it take for the product to appear in the marketplace index ?

#How to maintain the affiliate program only for launch partners during launch period and prevent it from the marketplace in the first few days ??

Hi Vignesh,

there are 2 ways:

1) only the first product in your account appears in the marketplace. So if you set it up as second product it won't show up.

2) I believe (not 100% sure) that for the first product you can prevent it from being listed by NOT chosing a category for the listing. E.g. set it to 'uncategorized'. You need to verify this with CB support though.

Ralf thanks for the reply..
but I need the product to be listed after the initial launch period.
How is this done ?
All the products I have promoted in the past as a JV have been doing this
but I can't find out how they are achieving this.

Vignesh, to get your product listed in Clickbank just set the catagory you want to the product to appear in. You will need to make one sale, after you make that one sale it will appear in the marketplace within one day I think.

Unfortunately I have not launched any of my products with ClickBank. I use a separate Affiliate Marketplace called PayDotCom. With this market place you can actually choose not to show the product in the marketplace, and at a later stage (when your launch is over) you can choose to add your product and designate the product to a specific category.

Clickbank may have similar features. Have you contacted ClickBank - they would be able to provide you with the best answer?

I think one should create a new account for each product and not make any sale till the launch day and then after its launched the product will display in the marketplace listings.
is this how this works ??
