Everyone wants something for free! The word “Free” brings in so much interest and traffic to any post or article that is on your site, people see the word free and instantly are interested, so how can we monetize this?
I use PPC to drive traffic to most of my affiliate sites, and it can even be done when offering free products or samples, for instance, maxbounty offer lots of offers where the user only needs to enter an email to receive free products and the payouts are anything between $1-3 per lead, i recently ran a campaign promoting free cat food samples, i had a simple landing page with a free ebook offer about cats to entice my visitors to join my list! i was paying under $.15 a click for various keywords and phrases, in total i converted at around 40% which was a pretty decent ROI. Theres alot to choose from, free samples always convert very well but be careful how you use your keywords, try to use the phrase match to prevent unwanted and wasted clicks for people searching “cat women”, free to enter contests also convert well but again monitor your keywords closely as these sorts of PPC campaigns can sometimes suffer from low CTR.
Try to be as creatve as possible with your ad campings and try different variations of your ads, keep in mind your target audiance and what they are actually searching for.
These sorts of offers are great for people just beginng which PPC as they can be run on a very low budget.

Clickbank is an affiliate marketplace. It sells only digital products such as, e-books, online training courses, and software. Products are sold by affiliates and supplied by publishers.

Affiliates are paid by Clickbank twice a month. They have the option to be paid via check or by direct deposit. It is possible to set payment thresholds so you are not paid until your account reaches a certain balance.
To get started, the first step you need to take is to register with Clickbank. Registration is completely free; all you need is a fully functional email address. Once you register and confirm your account, all you have to do is choose a product to promote.
In order to promote your products or landing pages, you can choose either one or a number of traffic generation methods. Article marketing or “Bum” marketing is one of the fastest and most popular ways to begin driving traffic and making a substantial income online.
Another way to jump start your Clickbank success is with a blog. You can create a free blog at numerous web sites and use each post to promote your chosen product. Blogs are high quality because they are indexed by the search engines quickly and are easy to develop.
