I just don’t understand the clickbank. I look at the analytical report for affiliates (I’m an affiliate, right? Not a publisher, right?) and I see the hits, but which ad is that for. Some days, I only have 1 row, what ever that means, unless it is 1 row is 1 ad and sometimes only 1 ad gets looked at? And how do I tell which ad is getting the hits and if I sold something, what did I sell and do I have to do anything to get my money and how much is my money???!!!

So now do you see how confused I am?? Please take a minute from, I know what is a busy schedule, and help me understand clickbank. I have read on it, but I’m not even sure if I’m a publisher or affiliate. It is really confusing to me.

I agree the click bank can be confusing, but hopefully I can clear it up for you.

First of all if you are advertising for another company (putting banners on your website), that makes you an affiliate.

If you are wanting others to put their banners on your website, that makes you a publisher

Here is the way to check your analytics and transactions:

First login to your account
Then click the "Reporting" tab

Next you will have the following choices "Transactions | Analytics"

Transaction will show you actual sales and Analytics will show you which banners made the sale by selecting the affiliate reporting options

The rest should be self explanatory. There is a number of reports you can run by selecting options from the drop down menus.
