EasyClickMate 2009 Edition

Since early this year, I’ve been quietly adding new features into easyClickmate. Here’s a quick summary of the new features: 1. Automatic Support for Google’s Adwords Tracking ID for Affiliates.

How to find the Vendor’s Product ID

I get this question quite often – how do you find the product #ID (item #ID) that is sold by a ClickBank vendor? In most cases, you can see the product ID (item ID) when you hover your mouse over the order link or order button, e.g. http://3.vendorID.pay.clickbank.net

ClickBank’s Hoplink Shield – more cool features!

Just got this tip from my buddy, Harvey Segal – the ClickBank guru Each time you generate a hoplink (for the same product) via ClickBank’s new hoplink shield, you will get different (encrypted) affiliate links. For example, I randomly choose the vendor ‘affilorama’: These 2 encrypted hoplinks goes to the same vendor/product page – but [...]

I get many questions regarding the newly introduced “Hoplink Shield” by ClickBank. Especially this – “How does it help me since I am already using a link cloaker?” The new Hoplink Shield helps in 2 ways: 1. It hides the vendor ID so it is not obvious – i.e. it makes it more difficult for [...]

ClickBank’s Automatic Currency Conversion

A couple of days ago, ClickBank implemented automatic currency conversion on the checkout page. For example, if your product costs USD$47 and someone in New Zealand clicked on the purchase button, the price he sees on the checkout page is NZD $90.38 dollars. Although USD$47 and NZD$90.38 are the “same” – it may “look” more [...]

Running my 1st Sale since 2002 …

Since starting my online business 6 years ago (this site was launched on April 16th, 2002) I’ve been making a decent living with consistent sales every month. I managed to quit my day back back in 2003. Now, it’s time to give back – for the first time ever, I’m practically giving away all my [...]
