Step by step guide how to start selling your product via Click2Sell
In this short article you will read and learn about the initial steps of selling your products via Click2Sell system. The process is very simple, short and costless. So let’s begin:
- Signup to Click2Sell
Signup is absolutely free and you need only one account for both merchant and affiliate activities. There are also no upgrade costs, no monthly fees and so on. Once you finish your registration, you can start using Click2Sell immediately.
- Add a product
After you login to Click2Sell member area, go to “For Vendor” section and then click on “Add product” link in green sub-bar:
Fill in the required fields going through all the necessary steps. If you are not sure what one or another field means, you can move your mouse over [?] symbol and read an explanation. See an example below:
(of course, you can always contact Click2Sell Support if you have any question).
- Get “buy-now” buttons
Once you finish creating a product, at Step 5 you will see such page (you can also find this via: For Vendor -> My Products -> “Buy Now Links” in the table):
“Your direct link:” is just a simple URL which leads to Click2Sell checkout page. There is no difference for your buyers between this “direct link” and scripted “Order Now!” link (the first one with the grey field full of java code), but we recommend using scripted link or button because they gather statistical information about your visitors, views, conversions (and so on) which you can see in your Click2Sell account.
On the left column you can see what will appear in the place where you put the code (from the grey text field): it can be just a simple text link “Order Now!” or a graphic button. Choose the desired one and copy all the code from the grey text field.
- Paste the code into your website
Paste the copied code into HTML area of your sales-page. Be sure that you don’t accidentally alter the code. Check your page via your browser to see if it’s working correctly.
Well, that’s all. Basically, you have done all the necessary steps in order to start selling your product via Click2Sell. Once a buyer purchases your product, Click2Sell will automatically register the purchase and gather all the required information about transaction.
If you need a thorough review of each option and setting in product adding process, please read this article "Everything About Products Management at Click2Sell (Part 1)".
By the way, just make sure that Click2Sell buy-now button is not placed nearby other payment options (for example, Paypal button or your own shopping cart). Potential affiliates who see more than one payment button (e.g. Click2Sell.EU and Paypal) might not want to promote your product, because there are high chances that customers (brought by affiliates) would click on another payment button and the commissions would be lost. So in order to prevent this – always use only one payment button on one sales page.
If you have any question, thought or anything else, just let us know!

Dear Support,
I would like to know if joining click to sell is also effective for newbie like me?
I notice that somehow your programs and guides are for those who already know a lot about internet biz.
I badly want to try doing biz online for residual income and hopefully making it fulltime in the future – however I need some detailed guides (video perhaps) on doing from basics:
creating a website, putting products/click2sell links,etc. , how to bring my website online and can be seen and explored by viewers at anytime (they can download or buy products, be an affiliate), What is Domain and Hosting? Do I really need all these to earn money or can I still earn $ without it? Can my website still be seen by viewers online (do all transactions) without having a Domain and Hosting?, etc.. etc…
I understand my questions may be boring for you as you have heard these from thousands of people. But I’m just simply one of them who only know how to do surf and email in the internet world. But Im confident I can improve and be effective like the rest – given real guidance and training.
Hope you will have more patience to teaching me.
Appreciating your reply and support,
Dionell

Hello Dionell,
succeeding in affiliate marketing requires at least average computer skills. Unfortunately, it is not realistic to earn anything significant with minimal knowledge of computers, Internet, websites. So either you start learning all these things very seriously, or just do not try affiliate marketing as it would be a waste of time.
You may find useful knowledge in such websites like:
AssociatePrograms
WarriorForum
DigitalPoints Forum
There are a lot of information that will help you to get started in internet business.

Hi, Crusial, why do you need this text box? If the buyer wants to buy your product, he’ll press the “Buy Now” button and will be redirected to Click2Sell checkout page. There he’ll have to fill in his information (name, adress, etc.) and it will be automatically saved in your Click2Sell account. You’ll be able to see this information under transaction details.
