Making Money Selling MBK eBook Products

As you are probably aware by now, this high-traffic website is all about kites, with a focus on making them yourself quickly and cheaply. In terms of kite types, the focus is on single-line kites, although there is background info on just about every major type of kite there is.

If you want to make an immediate start to selling my eBooks, just click on the appropriate link below. The link will guide you through a short process to get the appropriate code pasted into your site or blog...

I want to sell the eBook Making Dowel Kites - Low Cost, High Flying Fun.

I want to sell the eBook Making Skewer Kites - Fun For Every Generation.




Are You Experienced At Affiliate Sales?

Do you want to put more effort into it to improve your returns? If so, please read on...

A small percentage of my visitors are happy to get the How To Make... instructions by paying for a downloaded PDF-format eBook via ClickBank. The above 2 eBooks are compilations of information that is already available on this site for nothing. However, having an indexed and designed-for-printing version of the info is sufficient incentive for those customers to buy. It's convenient to work from a printout when making a kite!

Other visitors to the site end up on the sale page for an eBook product more directly. For example, from someone's blog that has a promotion of an MBK product, with a link directly to the sale page for that product. These visitors might not even bother to explore the MBK site enough to realize that the info is already available online-only for nothing. Hence the conversion to sales could be somewhat higher in these cases.

OK, enough about my site - how about yours? It doesn't have to be about kites... Other types of sites that link to me, due to 'common ground' include...

  1. Hobby sites
  2. Children's activities sites
  3. Retirement activities sites (!)
  4. Any kind of recreational or outdoors 'things to do' sites

Any of these are good candidates for sending traffic to my sales pages.




The Books You Can Sell

You might have noticed a considerable variety of eBook covers on the right-hand column of this website. However, for the time being, I am focusing on helping affiliates who can help me sell my two main ClickBank products only, already mentioned above. Both of these sell for $19 USD. There is a 60% commission for every copy you manage to sell for me.

My suggestion is that you pick one eBook only that you feel fits your visitors best. See my comments on each one below.

I also suggest you contact me for a free eBook in order to review it for yourself. Preferably, you should also actually make 2 or more kites from the eBook and go out and fly them. People will be more likely to buy if you can relate your own successful experience...

I often get a sale or 2 immediately after posting a short flight report - try it!

Note: To receive the free eBook, you'll need to give me the URL of your site, so I have some idea of whether you are genuine ;-)

Click on the images below, if you want to refresh your knowledge of the product.




eBook - Making Dowel Kites



This is the Making Dowel Kites product. Market this one towards adults and/or teenagers, since the kites are a fair size. Anything from 1 meter (3 feet) tall up to 2.4 meters (8 feet). These inexpensive kites will soar to 400 feet above the ground with ease.

Visitors from my site who end up on the sale page for this product are currently converting at just under 1%, as measured by GWO (Google Website Optimizer).





eBook - Making Skewer Kites



Secondly, the Making Skewer Kites product. The main attraction about this is that there is something in here for just about any age group. The materials required are dirt-cheap, even compared to buying dowels for the Dowel kites!

Visitors from my site who end up on the sale page for this product are currently converting at just over 1%, as measured by GWO (Google Website Optimizer).





How To Sell The Books On Your Site Or Blog

Firstly, here's how to become a ClickBank Affiliate, if you are not registered as one already.

Let's assume you are a ClickBank Affiliate, and you know your account nickname...

Here is some sample text you can paste into the text of your site or blog, to sell the MBK Dowel Series eBook...

Change the wording to whatever suits you. Of course, don't forget to change YourAccountNickname to ... your ClickBank account nickname, before posting your page. Also...

To sell the 'Making Skewer Kites' eBook, change mbkkites3 to mbkkites1.

The above example would appear to visitors as...

We tried a couple of these Dowel kites from the eBook, and they flew really well! If you buy the MBK Dowel-Series eBook today, you could have a great kite ready to fly next weekend.

Other Resources You Can Use

I have spent thousands (yes, thousands) of hours creating content on the My Best Kite website which gets visitors excited about making and flying their own kites!

Try going to my kite flying stories page, and reading a few flight reports that are linked from there.

You are welcome to cut-and-paste entire paragraphs of these reports, to publish alongside your own recommendations of my eBooks. Credit me with a brief caption, for example 'Source: Tim Parish, of my-best-kite.com' Create some kite-flying atmosphere to warm up your potential customers!

You are also welcome to use any images you find in those reports, to publish alongside your own recommendations of my eBooks. Credit these with the caption 'Courtesy of my-best-kite.com'. In fact, this goes for any images of the Dowel or Skewer kites you find anywhere on the site! If the sail is pale-orange or light-blue, it's a safe bet that it is an MBK kite.

To get a website image onto your computer, just right-click on it and select Save Image As... Then you can save it as an image file, ready to use in your site or blog. Please don't link to my images - they could change in future!

Of course, if you have actually bothered to make and fly your own MBK kites, you may well have your own photos and even videos to coax your visitors into considering an eBook purchase!
