Which affiliate program is the best?

    The only company that I know and 'trust' is google. But I need a pay-per-impression service, because I'm getting more impressions than clicks.

    I run a small blog at this point. I'm a gamer, its a gaming blog. And the site is growing each day that its online. I plan on pushing more marketing into the site and its network sites.

    I have a lot of passion for gaming, and I'm not doing this blog for money, but this economy is killing me...so I need some kind of source of money somewhere.

    I've heard a lot about adbrite, clickbank, this and that...but which one is trustworthy, as in it doesn't install spyware, malware, etc. etc. I want a reputable company, not just a company that is looking for cash.

    So, my question to you is, who is the second-best ad network next to google? :confused:

    There are different ways to monetize your site.
    You can sell ads placement. You can use an ads network, such as Blogads.com, or just contact people who can be interested in placing an ad in your blog. For example check what ads are in your competitors sites.
    You can also sell affiliate products using for example Clickbank (very reliable).

    Yes, there are different ways to monetize your site.
    You can test also revenue sharing...some companies offer 30% life time.

    Hey, there is an affiliates program on tripleVpoker for 30% and/or cash for every person you bring on the site that plays real money. the beauty of it is that you don't get paid only once but once a month for as long as that user plays on the site. :) you get paid any way you want.

    As far as I know, Dating and relationship recovery related products are in hot demand currently. CB has a few on the subject that people are aggressively promoting. It seems members of Wealthy Affiliate are after the niche.

    Well you will always get more impression than clicks, that's a fact. Now what I would recommend is to sell items related to your audience.

    For the domain names I'm guessing your sites are about xbox 360's games, modern warfare 2 the 360 version maybe?

    Well why don't you sell 360 accessories, I can't post urls yet, but there are some store that sells gaming accessories, games and stuff WITH dropship, that way you don't have to handle shipping and stuff.

    Maybe write your own guide full with tips to get better in the multiplayer, secrets, the best practices and sell them for a small amount.

    Just a couple of ideas. Hope I helped.

    You can use Social Media Marketing like Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube wherein lots of people viewed it everyday.

    You can advertise in FB as an application, you can do blog posting in Twitter, and video advertising in Youtube.

    I think that revenue share can bring you much more money than CPA...
    i know someone who lost lot of traffic for google panda...now he gets the same money as before because it's program is life time revenue share

    It really depends on the product you are promoting to find the best affiliate program, it will depend on your traffic, your copy and your conversion ratio, and they all fluctuate
