Once you have signed up at clickbank for an affiliate account (it's free, just go to the: Clickbank Sign Up Instructions), then you are ready to start promoting and marketing the ebook.

**To watch a video tutorial on how to create your custom clickbank hoplink, click the image below.**

Marketing the Burn The Fat ebook is simple. All you do is put special links on your webpages or in your newsletters to send traffic to the Burn The Fat.Com website. These links are called "CLICKBANK HOPLINKS" and they are important because this is how Clickbank keeps track of the traffic you send to Burn The Fat.com and gives you credit for the e-book sales you generate.

So the very first step after you have signed up for your clickbank account is to understand how to make a hoplink. Keep in mind, if you make your link incorrectly, that is kind of like putting an ad in the yellow pages and using the wrong phone number! (YOU are responsible to make sure your hoplinks are coded correctly!!!! )

Here is how to correctly make your hoplink:

The current standard clickbank hoplink format is:

http://xxxxxxx.vendor.hop.clickbank.net

BurnTheFat is the vendor (product) name, so that looks like this:

http://xxxxxxx.burnthefat.hop.clickbank.net

So now, all you have to do is insert YOUR clickbank affiliate nickname in the place where the x's are located

For example, if your affiliate nickname is tomvenuto (hint: it's NOT - use YOUR nickname, this is just an example!!!!!), then the hoplink would look like this:

http://tomvenuto.burnthefat.hop.clickbank.net

That's all there is to it. When someone clicks through YOUR hoplink, they are redirected to www.burnthefat.com and a "cookie" (a small tracking file) is dropped onto the computer of the visitor. This "marks" that visitor as coming from your referral.

Clickbank uses 60 day cookies, so that means if the people you send to Burn The Fat.com purchase that day or if they return any time within the next 60 days, you will get the commission for the sale (currently 60% commission rate of net sale, or approximately $24.00, U.S.).
