Affiliate Network or Direct to the company/advertiser?

[pipes]

Hi, i would like to know if you only use affiliate networks or if you only look for companies with an affiliate program on their site without doing it through a network.

Or do you choose to use a combination of both?

What makes you go through a network?

One item very important to me is how much is needed for cashout. For instance, if I need $100 before getting a check, I probably have a better chance through a network where I have more options to earn $, than directly with one company.

True, i was forgetting about that, so for the minimum payout at networks it doesn't have to be from the one advertiser/program? just your minimum needed accross any programs your working within the network?

Exactly right. So unless you are with a company that offers a wide range of products, there is better opp, I believe, with a network
