Pay per click and search engine optimization are two different categories falling into the huge topic of traffic generation. For your traffic generation campaign, you may choose to use them together or they can work separately.
Many marketers pay for traffic by way of pay per click. Others achieve natural listings in the search engines, often called “organic” traffic. Most of them do one or the other.
By optimizing your website you can get in the natural listings. There are various things you can do on the site itself to help the search engines determine what your site is about. You can also target desired search terms to increase your chances of ranking for these terms in the search engines. You’ll need to understand how to do keyword research, and how to write search engine optimized articles in order to take advantage of SEO. It is also important to gain back links to your website so you will rank more highly.
Using pay per click, you will be paying for advertising your website. This involves writing a small text ad. When someone clicks on your ad they are directed to your website and you pay a certain amount for that click. The amount you pay depends on the niche you are targeting and your quality score. You will need to have a high quality landing page or website to achieve a good quality score. Many people favor pay per click because they feel it gives them more control. Plus, you can easily achieve top rankings if you have a good quality score and are willing to pay.
When you combine both the natural listings and paid listings methods, it can be even more powerful. You just need to decide which is right for you. If you have more time than money, then the natural listings is the way to go. If you have some money to invest in advertising, then pay per click traffic is certainly worth a try. At some point you may want to utilize both methods.
Pay per click and search engine optimization can be great ways to get more traffic to your ClickBank offers. Once you have more traffic, you’ll likely make more sales than ever before. Educate yourself on this as much as possible so you can put these steps into action to get massive amounts of traffic to your ClickBank promotions.

I recently bought a Clickbank CPA product with one of its numerous upsells.
When I opened the download and looked at what I was getting I sensed a serious disconnect with the promise in the sales letter and the product received. This product was promoted by a number of Clickbank affiliates in a similar way to other products promoted by a similar group of marketers.
The M.O. was the same, hype the product, low initial price, numerous upsells, special inner circle etc. But if the basic offering is nothing new you soil the chances and sour the customer from purchasing again from emails that are being sent out by the JV partners, which then leads to pissed off customers and refunds.
You can fool some of the people some of the time, but it will catch up. I recently bought another product that has done the reverse. It constantly surprises me with the value it provides and makes me all the stickier because of the good feeling and lack of hype and bs.
When you reward the customer with good new content and value, and show the customer continuing value you will have a customer for life.
Just food for thought.
