Clickbank Product #1: First Sale, Copy & Rankings
Well, it’s finally happened - my first of two new products I had in development was approved by Clickbank and received its first official sale yesterday after 40 unique visitors since the product went live last week.

Ahh.. It’s always nice to get that confirmation as it’s easier to relax knowing people actually want your product. ;o)
In regards to sales copy, I decided to contract a copywriter to revise the copy. Regardless of the current conversion (which I couldn’t possibly know at this stage), I’ve seen this guys work and I know for a fact it will be improved upon a lot by his work.
The website has started moving up in the rankings in Google and Yahoo and it’s around 50th place in both engines for the main keyword I’m targeting. Now I just have to work on some link building and promotion and I’m hopeful within 6 months I should be seeing some solid rankings for the main keywords, but it is natural search we’re talking about, and anything could happen.
In related news: Product number 2 should be written within 6 weeks. I think I will use the same copywriter to write the sales copy from scratch given I REALLY don’t want to write more long sales copy myself. It’s a terrible task unless it’s your passion!

Wahey! Well done on the first sale
If the CTR continues you can expect me to be setting up my adwords campaign pretty damn quick…
