Key Insights:

  • The Volume Reality: The platform is alive and kicking with over 100,000 ads in the last 30 days.

  • The "Meta": It is dominated by Affiliate Bridge Pages (BuyGoods/ClickBank), warming up traffic for VSLs.

  • The "Tesla Girl" Scale: A single AI-style video hook is currently running across 2,600+ ads.

  • The Boring Money: High-ticket lead gen (like Flooring) is quietly spending massive amounts on simple funnels.

The Context

There is a rumor that "Clickfunnels is dead." The data says otherwise. We scanned the ClickFunnels technology tag and found 100,000+ ads launched in the last 30 days. The difference in 2026 is who is using it.

It’s no longer just "gurus" selling courses; it’s sophisticated performance marketers running massive arbitrage plays.

Step 1: The Affiliate Takeover (BuyGoods & ClickBank)

We started by filtering for Affiliate Networks within the ClickFunnels ecosystem.

  • The Data: We found ~4,600 ads for BuyGoods and ~3,900 for ClickBank.

  • The Strategy: Some of the offers are built with ClickFunnels. We also found affiliates hosting "Bridge Pages" (Pre-landers) on ClickFunnels.

  • Why: They use the bridge page to pre-sell the user before redirecting them to the Vendor's VSL (Video Sales Letter). It’s a classic arbitrage play that still works at scale.

Step 2: The "VSL" Dominance

When we looked at the actual landing pages, a pattern emerged.

  • The Insight: The majority of high-volume pages are VSLs (Video Sales Letters).

  • The Tactic: The pages are simple. Headline + Video + Button. ClickFunnels is still the go-to tool for deploying these rapidly because it handles the video hosting and redirect logic perfectly for affiliates.

Market Analysis: The Domain Concentration

This is where the "super affiliates" hide.

  • The Observation: We saw specific domains running massive volumes. One BuyGoods offer alone had 5,000+ total ads with 3,000 currently active.

  • The Lesson: When you see 3,000 active ads for a single domain, that isn't a test. That is a money printing machine.

Scaling Strategy: The "Tesla Girl" Creative

We used the "Group by Creative" filter to find the biggest winner, and we found a monster.

  • The Hook: A video starting with "My kid's friend's mom just bought a Tesla... girl, what do you do?".

  • The AI Twist: The video appears to use AI-generated avatars or voiceovers.

  • The Scale: This single video asset is being used in 2,600 different ads.

  • The Takeaway: You don't need 50 creatives. You need ONE "God Tier" hook that you can duplicate thousands of times.

Infrastructure: The "Boring" Lead Gen

It’s not just affiliate offers. We found a massive campaign for Refloor.com (Flooring Lead Gen) with 763 active ads.

  • The Funnel: A simple, direct lead generation questionnaire.

  • The Insight: Local lead gen has gone national. They are using the same "direct response" tactics as the affiliates to scale high-ticket services.

Summary

ClickFunnels in 2026 is an industrial-grade tool for:

  1. Affiliates: Running Bridge Pages for BuyGoods/ClickBank.

  2. Scale: Blasting single creatives (like "Tesla Girl") across 2,600 ads.

  3. Lead Gen: Scaling "boring" offers like flooring to national levels.
