Seeking Another RELIABLE Affiliate Network

    That's it, CJ has PISSED me off with delaying the payout. So here is what I need from some people, a few suggestions of new affiliate networks.

    I am looking for suggestions only from people who have actually been with the suggested network for a while. The network must:

    -- Have AM's available on AOL Instant Messenger
    -- Low minimum payment requirement
    -- Pays once a month minimum (15th-20th) or even better, more frequent
    -- GREAT Crediting System
    -- Wide range of offers (at least 500 offers or 250 companies)
    -- Must have direct deposit payout!

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm considering COPEAC right now but after reading some feedback from a few people, it is beginning to make me second guess.

    I would have to suggest one of two networks. Market Leverage or Ads4dough. Adsfordough always has people on AIM willing to help.

    I only have good things to say about Copeac. They meet or exceed all the requirements you mentioned above. However, as Coop mentioned, Ads4Dough is a great alternative and my current favorite. They don't carry quite as many offers as Copeac but their available list of offers seems to be growing every day. Plus things just seem to convert way better with them (probably because it is owned by a veteran affiliate marketer).

    Already with them eninfotream: Not too big on either though.

    I am already a member of MarketLeverage and am promoting them with no problems. But they pay via check and I need another affiliate network that pays via direct deposit.

    Here is my questions. Scar, maybe you can answer this...

    How well does COPEAC credit? Also, on the same note... How good is Ads4Dough? Can you please provide me with around 10-15 offer's that each network has to give me a better idea of how good they are?

    When I first got into affiliate marketing, I was trying just about everything with just about every network. I experienced significantly higher conversion rates with Copeac, which led me to believe that they were a more reputable company. After getting to know my AM better, I confirmed this, and they've been my main network up until recently. They were also the only network that was willing to help me when I was new and had a lot to learn.

    The owner of Ads4Dough, Jason, is a long-time affiliate marketer who has helped me a bunch along the way. From reading his blog, I learned that lead payouts don't really mean anything, because most networks that offer high payouts just scrub leads to make up the difference (after they've stolen you from another network). He doesn't run it that way, he makes sure you get credited for every qualified action. For this reason, some of the lead payouts aren't as high as you might see on other networks, but in the long run you end up making more because of the higher conversion ratio. Ads4Dough is a really new company and I expect will grow substantially in the near future.

    As far as offers, they both have a vast array of stuff. But I'd say the majority of their offers consist of Email/Zip submits, Credt/Finance/debt, dating, and health products. I've been running True.com with Copeac and AmateurMatch with Ads4Dough lately. Copeac also has a lot of EDU stuff.

    Sorry I don't have the time to scope out 15 offers for each network, but I think you should take the time to sign up for both so you can see for yourself. No matter what networks you use, you should always test offers across several networks to see if there is any significant variance in conversion stats.

    I wouldn't get anywhere near Clickbooth. Never worked with MoreNiche, though.
