    Many guys have asked the same question here over and over as I can see. I guess you go read the answers. But I will give you a quick one though. CB deals mostly with software products. This means that if you want to promote downloadable Products, etc, this is where you go! This may include registry cleaners, ebooks, etc. There are some hard products though like weight loss products amongst others. There are thousands of products to promote and the best thing would be to visit the CB marketplace and search for what you like and are passionate about.

    CJ has Both Digital and Hard products. Same thing happens here. You can go register an account and browse through the thousands of products.

    CB has an option of getting paid via Paypal whereas CJ has other ways.

    Hope that helps.

    Cheers!

    Megan.

    CJ : You cannot promote all products from CJ Market place as it requires individual advertiser's approval.It also look for the ways and means of promotions done by the affiliate and region from where they participate.

    CB: You can join as affiliate in CB and promote any product or service by just adding the advertiser id on the hoplink. It does not have a individual approval process.

    Many very well known brands use CJ and not CB. I don't know of any offline popular brand name that uses CB; while there are more than a few that use CJ.

    CJ gives advertisers more control over their affiliates. One of the controls CJ gives to advertisers is the ability to selectively accept affiliate applications.

    Both CB and CJ are good affiliate networks.CB only allows digital products while CJ is mostly dominated by physical products.While both allows affiliate to sign up without any interview,in case of CJ You have to be approved by individual company to be able to promote them.
    CB is more flexible in their payment schedules.Affiliates of many countries can get paid via bank transfer while in case of cj direct bank transfer is limited to only a few countries.
    Personally I prefer CB over CJ.You get more commission for devoting the same period of time.The best thing about CB is that merchant can not interfere in the payments of affiliates.

    In CJ it shows EPC which is average earnings per 100 clicks.

    It also shows the cookie length for each merchant which varies, whereas on CB cookie length is the same regardless of the product.
