Picking the right product to sell is essential to succeed with affiliate marketing. There are millions of affiliate marketing products out there, but only a few can make you money. Some products are horrible and don't work right at all. Another product might be great, but its landing page leaves something to desired so nobody is buying it. To succeed with affiliate marketing, you need to find a product that's proven to make money for its affiliates. Why sell something that nobody is buying?

To find that right product to promote, we're going to use the Clickbank affiliate network. While there are many excellent affiliate networks out there, Clickbank is one of the best for beginners. They have an enormous selection of affiliate marketing products to sell, they always pay out on time, and it is easy to get accepted into the network. Unlike other networks that make you apply to promote specific offers, Clickbank lets you promote every offer on their network immediately.

The first thing to do when deciding on a product to promote, is to decide a niche. The best way to do this is to brainstorm and write down five or ten niches you think you would be interested in. When promoting a product, you will be spending a lot of time with it, so make sure the topics you write down aren't something that will bore you to death.

Once you have everything written down, go login to your Clickbank account and visit the Marketplace section. Clickbank has its products separated into categories, so pick an appropriate category and do a search for each of your topics. In the results, you will see a list of affiliate products that best match your search term. Underneath each product description, you will see a number of different metrics.

The most important metric to look at, is the gravity score. Gravity is a Clickbank formula that tells you how many recent sales affiliates have been making with this product. If a lot of people are making sales with this product then you should have no problems promoting this product as well. Usually I try and pick a product with a gravity score over 45. The other thing to look at is the dollars per sale. If you are going to use PPC marketing to promote your product, then pick a payout greater than $25 per sale. By choosing a high enough payout, you can cover any advertising expenses and make a good profit.

Using the two metrics mentioned above, write down a list of products that satisfy these criteria. Now pick the product that you would be most interested in researching about and selling. You already know that other affiliates are having success making money with these products, so the key here is picking the product that will keep your interest so you can promote it successfully. This is the first step to becoming a successful affiliate marketer.
