What Starter Affiliate will not do

No income promises, no “copy my funnel” upsell, no paid placements on the chart. An offer appears because the published numbers put it there. If Starter Affiliate ever earns a commission from an offer it lists, that link is marked as such, on the chart, every time.

Where the figures come from

ClickBank publishes a monthly list of its top-performing offers with three numbers for each: average earnings per click, average payout per sale, and conversion rate. Starter Affiliate reads that published list — March to August 2026 so far — and records each month exactly as reported, with the month it came from kept against every row.

The one check we run

Earnings per click should be roughly the payout multiplied by the conversion rate. When those three numbers don’t agree, the row is flagged rather than published. August’s number one passes:

$226.23 average payout × 0.89% conversion = $2.01 per click

What is ClickBank’s and what is ours

The rank is ClickBank’s. The movement tags — new, re-entry, held, bonus pick — come from comparing each month’s list to the one before it. The re-sorting, the six-month chart run and the plain-English read are ours.

What these numbers are not

• They are averages across other affiliates. Those affiliates had their own traffic, their own ads and their own audiences. A high EPC is evidence an offer converts for somebody. It is not a forecast of what it will do for you.
• They are monthly, not live. A list published for August describes August. An offer can stop working in the gap.
• Gravity lags. ClickBank’s gravity score counts affiliates who earned over a rolling twelve weeks, so it trails live changes in spend and demand — a well-documented limit of the score.
• One month proves little. That is why the six-month run is on the picks page: an offer that returns repeatedly is a different proposition to one that spiked once at launch.

What has been checked, and when

• August: verified. Every offer, rank, EPC, payout and conversion rate on the current board was re-checked against ClickBank’s published list on 15 September 2026 and matched exactly.
• March to July: transcribed, not re-verified. Those months were recorded from the published lists as they appeared. The Internet Archive holds no snapshot of the page between 17 April and 12 August 2026, so they cannot currently be re-checked line by line. Parts are corroborated elsewhere — May’s list naming YuSleep and Audifort, July’s naming Lymph Tonic and The Genius Switch as a bonus pick — and the six-month grid is presented as a record of rank, not of figures.
• Two rows are rank-only on purpose. The archive reports identical figures for Rocket Languages and Energy Revolution System in both March and April. Rather than publish numbers we cannot trust, those months carry rank alone.
• The category descriptions are ours. ClickBank files several of these simply as “Dietary Supplements”; the plainer description on the board is written by us, and each offer’s own page shows ClickBank’s label alongside it.

What is being added

The next data layer is ad longevity: how long affiliates have actually kept paying to run each offer, read from public ad libraries. Monthly network figures say what worked last month; how long an ad has stayed live is the closest public signal to whether it is still working this week. It is not on the chart yet, and it will be labelled clearly when it is.

Independence

• Starter Affiliate is independent and not affiliated with ClickBank or with any vendor whose offer appears on the chart. ClickBank is the trademark of its owner and is named here only to say where the published figures came from.
• No paid placements. An offer appears because the published numbers put it there. There is no way to buy a position, and there never will be.
• No commission is earned today. Starter Affiliate carries no affiliate links. If it ever does, every such link will be marked as an affiliate link at the point of the link, in the issue itself.
• Revenue comes from readers. The free weekly picks are free; Pro is a subscription. That is the whole model.

No income claims

Starter Affiliate publishes what past affiliates earned on average, as reported by the network. It does not promise, project or imply what you will earn. Most people who try affiliate marketing earn little or nothing, and figures on this chart are not a prediction of your results.

If you promote one of these offers

• Disclose in the post itself, before the link. A line in your bio or a separate disclaimer post does not count. Any payment or free product counts as a connection you have to declare — the FTC’s endorsement guides cover affiliate links explicitly.
• You own what you say. A vendor’s sales page can make its own claims. The moment you repeat a health claim in your own ad or video it is yours, and endorsers can be held liable for it.
• Most of this chart is health supplements. Health claims are also the fastest route to a restricted ad account. Talk about the problem and your own experience, not about what a pill cures.
• The penalties are real. Civil penalties for disclosure violations run to more than $50,000 per violation.
• Check the rules where you live. The FTC guides are United States law. The UK, EU and other markets have their own advertising codes, and they also apply to you.

Accuracy

Figures are transcribed from a third-party source and can contain errors at either end. Where a month’s numbers look unreliable, Starter Affiliate publishes rank only and says so on the method page. Nothing here is financial, legal or business advice.
