I have been with both CJ and Neverblueads for almost a year. However, contrary to the fact the CJ is the biggest affiliate marketplace, I have found neverblueads to be more user friendly. Besides, the revenue I have earned from both has a big disparity. I earn 10 times more from neverblue what I earn in CJ. One area of affiliate marketing which I have never ventured into is PPC or search engine marketing, and perhaps that's the reason why I'm more successful with neverblue (correct me if I'm wrong!). I have generated revenue mainly through promoting a product or offer through my blog(s) and squidoo lenses. Whats your experience? I'd love to hear from experienced marketers and newbies alike.
I like neverblue better. If Neverblue and cj have the same offer with the same commission, I'd choose Neverblue. Here's a list of reasons why: 1) Neverblue you can ask your affiliate manager for weekly payouts. If you make a ton of $, they sometimes even give you their personal cellphone #.. that really says something.. 2) You can bargain with them to increase your commission. I got one offer boosted by $3 before I even promoted it. I just showed them a competing advertiser I was promoting which offered higher commissions. 3) You feel like you're talking to a person instead of some automated messaging system. Response time is very fast. Just call 'em up. 4) Tracking is real time. Other than those reasons, cj has way more advertisers, so I choose cj for everything else.
Fantastic points you mentioned there. OF course, same goes for me. In the offers run by both neverblue and CJ, I always opt for neverblue. I never knew about points 1 and 2 though, thanks for enlightening Squidoo lenses are one page websites basically...best way to monetize your squidoo lens is to make one on an affiliate product you are promoting. Of course, add a mixture of good content and attractive pictures to make it more lively. Add interactive modules like polls and duel to add more spunk Check out my latest squidoo lens - half blood prince movie
CJ and Neverblueads both are different type of networks.I use both CJ and Neverblueads and of course Neverblueads support, payment etc is good but that's common with CPA affiliate networks .Now on the other hand CJ really sucks but CJ has a lot of good merchants so you should join both.In the end it all depends on what do you want to promote. (PS: CJ Tracking really sucks..I made 300$ profit few days ago but they reported it on my account yesterday..)
Yeah, I've noticed that neverblue tracking is pretty instant. Better perhaps than any other network. Of course will have to use both. After all, CJ has some of the biggest merchants like Apple in its network
I applied to neverblueads to test test them. I got an email that they to talk to me before I am approved. I am not home during the day time and I don't want them to call me at work. So, no neverblueads for me.
Yeah, they just want to know how you plan to promote you affiliate programs. I told them I'd go for banner placements on my website and the sexy female rep was fine with it and approved my account soon Try it. Link in yours truly's signature
I signed up with NeverBlueAds. What is the right forum to post questions about NeverBlueAds when I have one?
best person to ask would be your affiliate manager. Else, you can always post questions here on DP forums. Lots of neverblueaddies here!
