ClickBank Gravity

Clickbank Gravity helps you understand how many people are promoting a given product as an affiliate. Like Page Rank, gravity has its own algorithm, but one thing to remember is that it's only an estimate.

Let's say that you see a product with clickbank gravity of 250+. This tells you that the product is really really popular. NOT that there is 250+ affiliates that are promoting it (though that may be true).

Expect to encounter lots of competition for this product, but also know that somewhere this product is making someone money! (If you chose to compete, that someone may end up being you)

While for the most part, clickbank gravity ranking algorithms is unknown, some parts have been speculated over in forums and resource pages. The part that was of interest to me was the recency factor. Simply put same product, same price; if it was sold last week, it will have a lower rating, than if it was sold yesterday.

Feel free to add your thoughts in the comments section if you like!
